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 August 18 2024


Last Sunday, once again, I was not preaching. I was in AP in Aberystwyth. In the morning I heard Ian Jones, one of the elders of the church, and in the evening my son Rhodri, pastor of the church, was preaching. Ian is doing a series on perseverance and faithfulness. This time he took us to Hebrews 10:19-29 especially verse 23 and our responsibility to persevere as Christians. Rhodri carried on in Romans 8 with verses 18-27. Very helpful.
