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.

Banner of Truth Ministers Conference Opening Evening 2023



It's good to be hear once again at Yarndield Park for the Banner of Truth Ministers Conference. We began with a sermon from Hugh Collier. Hugh took us to Romans 15:13 (May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.) Great choixe of ttext and the preaching well executed. Great start. The rest of the evening was given over to a first session on the church from Banner author Terry Johnson. I would think Mr Johnson is preaching to the converted on this subject but the general neglect of this doctrine is definitely reprehensible.
