Way behind as ever but we did meet on zoom last Wednesday and we looked at 1 Chronicles 21 and David numbering the people. We then had a good time of prayer. Our meetings seem to be getting shorter. I hope it is efficiency rather than a lack of prayerfulness. I think it is the former. We seem to know a lot of people outside our immediate circle who are ill. I discovered this week that only one person is said to have died of the virus in our area. We are fairly affluent but that is remarkable. (Since March 1 2020 some 22 people have died altogether. Borough wide the covid death figure is over 900),.
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.
