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.

Lord's Day August 23 2020


We have had a few visitors with us and things are slightly holidayish and so I have got behind with things. I did want to report briefly on last Sunday, however, which followed our most recent pattern - a meeting in the chapel in the morning with zoom available and a zoom meeting in the evening. We are still sticking to texts so it was Ezekiel 11:19, 20 in the morning and then that famous verse 2 Chronicles 7:14 in the evening. We had a decent turn out for both meetings but our older folk are still missing out and there are probably some who could come to the live meeting but don't.
