We were fewer than usual last Wednesday but it was good to meet We are now into the final chapter of James. It has been good to be confronted by the no-nonsense, challenging and practical style that characterises the book. We had plenty to pray about too as various members are facing different troubles at this time. It is a great privilege to be able to gather like that in the midst of often busy weeks.
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.
