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 January 19 2025


It was good to be preaching this last Lord's Day once again. We carried on in Ephesians and 2 Chronicles and had vommunion in the evening. I am almost in despair with regard to attendance, however. It is not so much those who are away and we know why but others who are away and we do not really know why. Perhaos thisis not really new. It was good to have a number of people around in the afternoon, including a new person in the congregation who I hope will stick with us.
