A Lamp in the Dark: The Untold History of the Bible

The documentary is in fact worth every second! After watching this, I immediately thought of writing a review, something I rarely do. But before writing a review, I read a few negative reviews and found that people felt "offended" by this video. Sorry, but truth be said. I took notes on important quotes as I watched it:"That is the Pope that hath his power out of hell and cometh thence..." -- 1560 Geneva Bible, footnote on Rev. 11:7"It has been claimed that when Luther recognized the Papacy as anti-Christ, it was only then that the Reformation gained momentum." -- That Man of Sin: Dead or Alive, byt Dr. Ian R.K. Pasley, EIPS article"And call no man your father upon the earth, for one is your father which is in heaven." Mathew 23:9"The Pope holdeth place on earth, not simply of a man, but of the true God."-- Pope Innocent 3rd. Decretals of Gregory IX, Book 1, chapter 3.I am in all, and above all, so that God himself, and I, the vicar of God, hath both one consistory, and I am able to do almost all that God can do. I then, being above all...seem by this reason to be above all gods." -- Pope Nicholas, The Church Historians of England: Reformation Period, by Josiab Pratt, pub. 1856, p.159"Wherefore, no marvel if it be in my power to dispense with all things, yea, with the precepts of Christ." Pope Nicholas. Ibid, Pratt, p.159"Behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it...and no man openeth..." Jesus Christ, Revelation 3:8, 7"If any man...or an angel from heaven...preach any other gospel unto you...let him be accursed." Apostle John, Galatians 1:9, 8"Our Lord God the Pope." Catholics. The Beast and His Image, by Frederic Fysh, pub. 1837, p.276"Take care that we lose not that salvation, that life and breath which thou hast given us, for thou art shepherd, thou art physician, thou art governor, thou art husbandman, thou, finally are ANOTHER GOD ON EARTH." --The Lateran Council while addressing Pope Julius 2nd. Lateran Coucil, cited by Dr. Ian R.K. Paisley, The Bible of the Antichrist, p.2"The Pope is not simply the representative of Jesus Christ: On the contrary, he is Jesus Christ Himself, under the veil of the flesh. Does the Pope speak? It is Jesus Christ who is speaking. Hence...when anyone speaks of the Pope, it is not necessary to examine but to obey."" -- Pope Pius X (Cardinal Giuseppe Sarto)."I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man cometh unto the father, but by me." Jesus. John 14:6"I alone...am the successor of the apostles, the vicar of Jesus Christ... I am the way, the truth, and the life..." --Pope Pius IX."We declare, say, define and pronounce, that it is absolutely necessary for the salvation of every human creature to be subject to the Roman Pontiff." -- Pope Boniface VIII. "No man outside obedience to the Pope of Rome can ultimately saved. All who have raised themselves against the faith of the Roman Church, and died in final impenitence have been damned, and gone down to Hell. " -- Pope Clement VI"Into this fold of Jesus Christ no man may enter unless he be led by the Sovereign Pontiff and only if they be united to him can men be saved -- Pope John XXIII"Don't go to God for forgiveness of sins: come to me. --Pope John Paul II. Quoted by Professor Arthur Noble, in "The Pope's Apology," published online by the European Institute of Protestant Studies."I believe the Pope is the masked and incarnate devil because he is the Antichrist." -- Martin Luther. Luther's Works, Table Talk, vol. 34, no. 4487, p. 346"Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many." -- Jesus. Matthew 24:4-5CONFESSION TO BECOME A CATHOLIC:"We confess that whatever new thing the Pope of Rome may have instituted whether it be in scripture or out of scripture, is true, divine, and full of salvation and, therefore, ought to be regarded as of higher value by lay people than even the precepts of the living God.. We confess that the Pope has power of altering scripture, or increasing, or diminishing it according to his will. W confess that the most holy pontiff ought to be honored by all with divine honor, with more prostration than even what is due to Christ himself." -- Apocalyptic Sketches, or Lectures on the book of revelation by John Cumming, 1851, P. 308The question that all christinas should ask is: "after thousand years of persecuting and killing the saints for reading the holy Scriptures, has Rome now turned over a new leaf? Or, is she simply pursuing new tactics to achieve an ancient agenda?

"We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:" (2 Peter 1:19)"The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple." (Psalms 119:130)"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. {106} I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments. {107} I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word. {108} Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments. {109} My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law. {110} The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts. {111} Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart. {112} I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end." (Psalms 119:105-112)"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. {2} The same was in the beginning with God. {3} All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. {4} In him was life; and the life was the light of men. {5} And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." (John 1:1-5)"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. {17} For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. {18} ¶ He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. {19} And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. {20} For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. {21} But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God." (John 3:16-21)"Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." (John 8:12)"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: {20} Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen." (Matthew 28:19-20) <3
