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 April 5 2026


On the first Lord's Day of the month we began with communion, as we do. Being Easter that gave a certain angle to things. I preached resurrection sermons am and pm - Matthew 28 and Luke 24. Morning numbers were fine. We had a fresh visitor, a believer I guess. Hope we see him again. Also a long lost stray returned. Members were back from six weeks in Australia. In the evening our small congregation was supplemneted by family. Good day.
