In light of the current situation where covid is as bad as ever, war rages in Europe and inflation is gathering pace fast, I decided last week to look at the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. I am still slightly uneasy about considering the white horse and rider as evil as the others but that has to be the case all things considered. In the end the decision makes little difference as we are still saying that God is in control, despite everything. A good time of prayer and a decent number again but one or two missing.
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.
