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.

Two Days Off Week 46 2021


I had another one of my double days off this week. I had to complete the current In Writing magazine before I could do anything else and I spent most of my time in getting my Benjamin Beddome talk ready for the Westminster Conference. I also read another two of those art books - one on Hieronymous Bosch and one on William Turner. In both cases there were quite a few things I hadn't understood or didn't know so it was good to become better informed. I also watched some TV in the evenings including University Challenge on the Monday.
