The similar phrase 'Worldly Christianity' is one used by Bonhoeffer. It's J Gresham Machen that I want to line up most closely with. See his Christianity and culture here. Having done commentaries on Proverbs (Heavenly Wisdom) and Song of Songs (Heavenly Love), a matching title for Ecclesiastes would be Heavenly Worldliness. For my stance on worldliness, see 3 posts here.

Lord's Day June 14 2026


We had lunch in church last Sunday, which is always nice. We could all squeeze into the Parlour as we were not a vast number. Several are away on holiday and others don't turn up. It was a good morning congregation and even in the evening we were in double figures. We continue to work through the closing chapters of Luke's Gospel. Yesterday morning we looked at Peter's denial and then in the evening Jesus's trials.
