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.

Another Tyndale House Conference

Peter


Dirk



Tony



I do like the work Tyndal House is doing and so when I realised there was a conferncee at IPC Ealing nearby I decided to go along. It is the anniversary of the publication of Tyndale's New Testament this year and so there was a paper from Tony Watkins on Tyndale plus A typical Peter Williams paper and one on textual matters from Dirk Joongkind, who I had not heard before. About 70 there in person I guess. I knew almost no-one though there was one family that used to be in our church many years ago. So nice to see them. Good questio times. So much to be positive about. Bought some nice books too.
