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.

Westminster Fellowship May 2024


More or less every month it is my privilege to be down in Westminster Baptist for the Westminster Fellowhip. I was there last Monday for the fellowship when Dr Ian Shaw spole on the subject of slavery and the case for reparations. Sadly, numbers were down rather and we were only about twelve or so. The two talks were very belpful, hopwever - the forst looking at oast responses from Wilberforce, Newton, etcl and casting light on Dabney, Thornwell and others who were quite controversial in their views. You can get a taste of what was said here
