It was good to be down in Guildford about 40 others for the third of Reformation Today's sessions looking at the 1689 confession. Robert Strivens took two morning sessions expertly guiding us through the confession and some modern errors. Very helpful. In the afternoon there was something more practicial from Bill James and then Alex Arrell again rounded off with a biographical piece - this time his countryman Alexander Carson. This thrd session marks the end of the series in its present format but it is hoped thta something similar can be done in the future. We hope so.
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.
