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.

Midweek Meeting June 26 2019


There could have been more but we were 11 on Wednesday which was good. We looked at the next bit in James (5:7-12) on patience and the second coming. It was a relatively easy passage to look at once you take it as giving three exampes to follow with three commands and reasons. There were several to pray for. There seem to be great needs at present. more positively we were praying for abeach mission due soon in Italy and for Stefan and the work in Jena.
