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 7 2021


We began with a very small number, small enough to sing aloud. Numbers improved, however, and we were more than we have been in weeks. These included an old friend from South America who we've not seen in ages, the East African lady who came last week and a young African man who was very keen to talk. It was good to see everyone there and to have others listening in on zoom. I did another in this series on meditation, this time on the sinfulness of sin, which seems like a depressing subject but was quite encouraging I thought. In the evening we looked at the last section in Luke 5 on fasting and then the wider i
ssue of New Testament religion. We also heard from my son Gwïon on his Relay work with UCCF in Aberystwyth.
