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 March 21 2021


By this stage one feels quite familiar with the in person am, zoom only pm pattern, despite its frustrations. We must have been around 16 or so there in the morning. I did a one off on one of the seven sayings of the cross - the words It is finished. With the kids we took a break from the catechism and I read the title story from my father-in-law's new book The Legendary Casey Jones and other American folktales in the evening we carried on in Luke, looking at Luke 6:12-19. We also linked up with our friends Eduardo and Anna Marzia in Brazil working with UFM. The wonders of modern technology.
