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 April 2 2023


We began on Sunday with communion, just a few of us. We then had a sermon on the cross from Luke 23:34-38, which went okay but was a little laboured. Numbers were down from last week unsurprisingly with some quite late. Immediately after the service, a Tunisian woman was there who had been looking for a foodbank (over the road and not on Sundays). Anyway,we gave her a cuppa and a Welsh cake, etc. Hope we see her again. Sorry not to get to talk to our friends from Cuba and St Kitt's who we've not seen for a while. Smaller congregation in the evening on the Passover from Exodus 12:1-20 but probbaly preached better.
