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.

Beginning of the reign of Charles III


I read somewhere a rumour that Charles did think of dropping the obvious title (George VII may be). He has not done that and so links his name with those of a beheaded man and a lecher. Hopefully he will be far better than those two in the short time he has.
