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 September 3 2023


It was good to be back in Childs Hill once again yesterday. We began with communion and then in the morning I preached the next part in Luke, the end of Luke 17. It wa a little longer than usual but not a major problem. People were missing but there were others present including relatives of members and visitors. Some good chats after both services. In the evening we looked again at the comings of Christ, including is becoming our High Priest and a life giving spirit, etc.
