This is debatable, of course, but I'd say
1. Mona Lisa, Leonardo Da Vinci
2. Starry night, Vincent Van Gogh
3. Water Lily Pond (with bridge), Claude Monet
4. Girl with the pearl earring, Jan Vermeer
5. Nightwatch, Rembrandt van Rijn
6. Guernica, Pablo Picasso
7. The scream, Edvard Munch
8. The persistence of Memory, Salvador Dali
9. Bal du moulin de la Galette, Pierre-Auguste Renoir

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.
