This last Lord's day we had a meal together in church. There were about thirty of us. I preached in the morning on the Good Samaritan and in the evening I began a new series on Micah. Numbers were low and I understand that giving is down too. Nothing it seems will get some people along. I don't think many are tuning in on zoom either. We are in great need, I fear. One encouragement a new family from southern Africa.
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.
