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.

Day off week 19 2020


Another uneventful day off this week. It would be hard to spot any great difference in the routine as I gave a lot of time to a writing project I have on hand at the present. I did spend time watching TV, however, and reading Tom Holland's book on Persia, etc. Having read his Dominion recently I remembered that I had bought a hardback copy of his Persian Fire in a charity shop some time and never read it. I am enjoying it.
