Summary: More wasted time and money on mormon bashing!
Review: DO NOT BE DECIEVED BY THIS DVD. It proports to be a nuetral documentary style look into the events that led up to the translation work of Joseph Smith on some papyra now called the Pearl of Great Price. The first two thirds of the film lulls you in to a "scientific journey" and then slowly tries to make the case that the work Joseph Smith did was fraudulent. . .

Summary: Ever heard of the 10 commandments?
Review: Everytime a product like this hits the market, I ask myself: "Are the people making this christians? Do they actually believe in God?" If they do, obviously, they must believe in the 10 commandments! So what happened to "You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor"? I guess their quest to combat "evil" exempts them from their own rules? The end justifies the means?
Well, it doesn't. Truly a sorry product!

Summary: Amazing, factual and fair approach to this subject
Review: I am a return missionary and have been LDS (Mormon) for over 30 years. I believe most Mormons are misinformed about the origin and history behind the Book of Abraham papyri. I would HIGHLY reccommend this DVD for anyone who is interested in some remarkable information about this particular aspect of Mormonism. The great thing about the DVD is that it can be viewed in English or Spanish. Buy two copies and give one to each of your home teachers as Christmas gifts.

Summary: An excellent documentary on a not so excellent prophet
Review: I find it amazing that a church that refers to potential new converts as "investigators" insists that people stop investigating as soon as they hit the baptismal water. The children in Primary sing the song "Search, ponder and pray" but apparently only about Church approved materials. The details behind the so-called "Book of Abraham" are fundamental in mormon beliefs. When viewed through mormon colored glasses, the "Book of Abraham" is yet another example of the prophetic calling of Joseph Smith. When approached from outside the fold, it can be seen as yet another example of a master [cheat]artist getting himself deeper into his lies. The mormon church spends millions on self-promoting videos designed to lure unsuspecting Christians and unchurched folks into their church. Yet dare raise questions about the authenticity of mormon writings and you get labeled with the same broad brush of "anti-mormon". If there is nothing to hide, this video should be informative anyway. If there is something to hide (and there certainly is from the mormon hierarchies perspective), anyone who testifies on the first Sunday of the month that they know Joseph Smith was a prophet owes it to themselves to see what sort of "prophet" he really was. The video itself lacks some of the slick marketing of mormon published works, but like many books that call mormonism out the material is more important than the package. If you are witnessing to mormons, you are more likely to get them to sit down and watch this video than to read a lengthy book on the topic. Makes an excellent gift for mormon friends and family, or to have handy when missionaries stop by and want to watch a mormon video with you.

Summary: Very Balanced View!
Review: I found the Lost Book of Abraham to be one of the most informative pieces that I have seen about Mormonism. It gives you facts without trying to sway you one way or the other about what your opinion should be. Many do not know of the history of the Book of Abraham, yet many base much of their faith in it's precepts. It is important to know where it came from so that one can make an honest decision based on facts and not mere feelings. in Christ

Summary: Lost Book of Abraham review
Review: I have recently viewed the Lost Book of Abraham video and found it to be very well done. The research is indisputable and factual with documentation that supports every statement. As a former member of the LDS church for 21 years I found the video to be fair and definately non offensive. I didn't give it five stars simply because the video quality wasn't quite as good as productions costing millions of dollars more, but the content was certainly worth five stars. I would recommend the video to anyone who has a serious interest in LDS Church history.

Summary: Mormon
Review: I take exception to the reviewer who said Mormons are not Christian, we are definitely Christians in the fullest sense of the word. A seriousinvestigator of Mormonism would do well to read the works Joseph Smith is said not to have translated and consider if a boy, 14 years of age could have written anything like the Book of Mormon, or later, the Pearl of Great Price referred to here. (Both of which are all about Jesus Christ, the Lord). Read those, pray about those, and don't be blown about by every wind of false doctrine because you will know with Jesus Christ as the rock you build on.
