Brown The Devil's Mission of Amusement
7 page article from 1889. Hollywood in the church and her ministries. Brown was a student of C.H Spurgeon.
Excerpts:
Different days demand their own special testimony. The watchman who would be faithful to his Lord and to the city of his God needs to carefully note the signs of the times and to emphasize his witness accordingly. Concerning the testimony needed now, there can be little if any doubt. An evil is in the professed camp of the Lord, that is so gross, so brazen in its impudence, that the most shortsighted of spiritual men can hardly fail to notice it....  Amusement for the people is the leading article advertised by each... until the hideous fact has been proved up to the hilt, that "amusement" is ousting "the preaching of the Gospel" as the great attraction... The Concert is fast becoming as much a recognized part of church life as the Prayer Meeting; and it is already, in most places, far better attended.

"Providing recreation for the people" will soon be looked upon as a necessary part of Christian work, and as binding upon the Church of God, as though it were a Divine command, unless some strong voices are raised which will make themselves heard.

One of the advantages of TheWord is the ability to make subsets of all your modules. In this class, we will make a Commentary Module set. What’s the purpose and advantage of this is in using and searching your modules, you can reduce what TW has to go through (filtering results and cutting down on search times) by just including commentaries.

I would think that the more commentaries that are out there, the more the serious Bible student would want most all of them, and then arrange and use them wisely.

At this point you might need to review or read and study for the first time, the basic Model Sets class  How to Make a Model Sets.




In theWord, open Define Module Sets Icon, then click on Make Module Sets,

module-set-define

and do the following…

1.) Clear Tree

2.) Templates…

3.) Group by Type.

This will give you a module set with ALL your modules but by type.

4.) Click on Dictionaries, Books, and Maps in the tree in the center window, and click “Delete” (button on the right-hand column).

You should have only “Commentaries” folder remaining, with a bunch of commentaries under that. Select the first commentary in the list, hold down shift, and click on the slider bar on the right, until you see the last commentary, click on that, and then drag it above to get it out of the commentary folder.

5.) Delete the empty Commentary folder.

6.) Selective delete what Commentaries you don’t want. Here, do the steps, and make different types of commentaries you might want, all, technical, devotional, cross-reference, etc.

7.) Save your module set. TW will not remember this set of modules without saving it, so click on the checkbox “Save this Set” and enter the name below it (last entries in the right-hand column).

Once you are out of the Define Module Set dialog box, you click on the Green books icon again to select again whatever module sets you have made.
