EVIDENCE OF THE COUNTER REFORMATION IN MODERN TIMES
In our film, "A Lamp in the Dark: the Untold History of the Bible," we give
a history of the Counter Reformation, launched by Rome for the purpose of
destroying the work of the Reformers. Led by the Jesuit Order, its

renewed efforts set forth by Pope Benedict XVI, which has resulted in
many Anglican ministers converting to Catholicism. All this began back
in the 19th century and was extensively warned about by Charles H.
Spurgeon, which is documented in the book, "Geese in Their Hoods."
If this pattern continues, we will see many more churches coming under
the power of Romanism.

As far as I'm concerned, it's all bad.
