We began with communion. There were only six of us all spread out so we all sang but we've lost the hang of it I guess. We were then joined by four more and had a good hour together focusing on Leviticus 16. (Two families were absent as the men work in healthcare and needed to be cautious). Another 23 or so joined us on zoom. So we creep forward in these bizarre and difficult days. The scapegoat is such a wonderful subject. In the evening it was just zoom and we carried on in Luke, the rest of Chapter 3.
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.

That painting by Holman Hunt is incredible if you ever get the chance to see it. It's got a really weird, ugly sort of power to it, like a fever dream.
