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 August 28 2022


Unusually on Sunday, we sang unaccompanied as we had no pianist present. I chose well known hymns and so we did okay. I preached in the morning a one off from Jeremiah 2:13 and then in the evening the penultimate message from Song of Songs. We were only seven for that I think. People away in Amwrica, France, Turkey and less exotic places as it was bank holiday the next day.
