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.

Affinity Study Conference 2015

The panel with Stephen Clark in the chair
Apologies again that my reports on the Affinity conference were rather general. Union with Christ is a big subject and it is difficult to know what to include and exclude from the papers and discussion. As I noted before, it is hoped that the papers will be printed up. They will be worth having.
