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.

International Presbyterian Church, Ealing


It was good to be at the opening service at the new building in IPC, Ealing this morning. A packed auditorium enjoyed the service led by the pastor Paul Levy. It included a brief summary of what has been nine years of effort to redevelop the site. The new building is an excellent facility and one hopes it will be a real asset. The preacher was Sinclar Ferguson who took us to Matthew 16 and made several helpful points. There was  alight lunch to follow and that was good too. It was good to be there and chat with various friends.
