I've been sharing it with friends. And well my copy got lost somewhere. Anyway I got the digital version on the instant video and also Purchased the disk again. They both work well.If you are seeking the truth about the history of Christianity from it's beginning to now This is a very good documentary to explain it. I also would like to recommend another part to this series that I've just learned about. it's called " Tares among the Wheat". This too is also an excellent guide to the truth of Christianity and how it's emerged into what it is today that is the main stream version of Christianity. You need to watch them with an open mind, don't go by how you have been taught because for most of us it might get upset if you have strict beliefs. Lamp in the dark gives a good description of how our bibles have evolved into what it is today. The history of how it got this way. And lets you know about the lives of those to helped write them. Tares in the wheat it too continues on with more information that the Lamp in the dark just didn't have time enough to explain. From what I've been told there is a third part. I believe it mentions that in the credits at the end. These are documentary's that most churches would not like it if you were to watch it. So if you dare to find the truth on your own, rather than rely on your church, and blindly follow. Myself I follow the bible and look up what people say to be fact and I follow what the word says. ( 1 Thessalonians 5: 21 prove all things; hold fast that which is good; ) I believe in the bible and follow that as my guide. The King James/ The Geneva Bible/ and the NIV are good ones for study. I like using them as my guide rather than to trust my soul to someone that collects tithe every Sunday. Mainly cause that's their motivation to their version of their truth. The digital copy the instant video on Amazon works excellent on here and I believe you could rent it instead of buying. This is an excellent documentary not a Hollywood production. So you are getting your money's worth on this. Enjoy.

Excellent video documentary which gives us a detailed history of the Bible's movement from Hebrew and Greek languages to the Latin version of the Roman Catholic churches and finally to the English-and-German-and-modern-language versions that the Protestant Reformation gave to the world-- not omitting matters relevant to the massive and horrifying persecution of early Bible-believers who opposed the Latin-only policy of the Roman Catholic churches by actually translating the Holy Scriptures into English and German, etc., so that the great masses of common people could finally READ the Holy Scriptures of the Bible in a language they could UNDERSTAND. I've heard Chris Pinto's Christian radio show quite a number of times now (via internet MP3 downloads) at Brannon Howse's site for "Worldview Weekend Radio," and I've always found Mr. Pinto's Christian history commentaries there to be quite enlightening... so I was pleased to be able to see this video documentary he created. I will next be watching the sequel video, which is called "Tares Among The Wheat." For people who are Protestants like myself (a Baptist) but who might be interested in learning about some more recent defections from the Roman Catholic religion (by former Roman Catholic priests, in recent and modern times), I will also mention that I have recently bought 3 paperbacks from Amazon that I am now reading and find quite fascinating: 1) Far From Rome, Near To God-- Testimonies Of Fifty Converted Catholic Priests... edited by Richard Bennett and Martin Buckingham, 2) The Gospel According To Rome-- Comparing Catholic Tradition And The Word Of God... by James G. McCarthy, and 3) Catholicism, East Of Eden... by Richard Bennett. All of them are recommended and all will be found, upon a thorough reading, to be quite illuminating. Chris Pinto, the narrator, writer, and director of this video, is a former Catholic himself, if I remember correctly from my previous times auditing his Christian radio program.
