Freemasonry isn’t one thing, but many, and it has always been this way. Much of this vagueness and variety stems from the fact that Freemasonry’s origins are lost in time. As ever, people see what they want to see and believe what they want to believe. Therefore, unsurprisingly, Freemasonry grew into a worldwide presence, and in this video we see how it inspired and influenced society as we know it today.

This video is episode 13 from the series The Real History of Secret Societies, presented by Richard B. Spence.

What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul- Jesus Christ.

[victorcontreras]

Yeah, as for me, I love my Christianity and faith in God. He doesn't tell me to keep secrets but to go and tell everyone of the GOOD NEWS... Amen!

My uncle was a member for decades. His brother mentioned how he was involved. I asked my uncle about it and he gave me a scripted response. My uncle always told me everything. Really weird that he was mum on this. He passed away last year. He gave a grandson his masonic ring and the lodge paid his funeral in full. Even had a masonic coffin. From that day on I've been so interested in knowing why and how they did all this. My other uncle (his brother) swore it was a cult, as he was in it for a short time. He left saying it wasn't for him.

“For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.”
— Luke 8:17 (KJV)

The comments of any video about Freemasons are more entertaining than the video itself.

My dad is a Freemason, old man now but won’t tell me or anyone more. I have a doorbell and I know it’s him because he knocks 3 times. I’ve tried so hard to get more info about his time (he’s nearly 80) but he won’t. It’s very mysterious.

Psalm 133:

How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity! It is like precious oil poured on the head, running down on the beard, running down on Aaron's beard, down upon the collar of his robes. It is as if the dew of Hermon were falling on Mount Zion.

1 Corinthians 13:13

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Wisdom 8:7

And if one prizes righteousness, the fruits of her labors are virtues. For she teaches temperance and prudence, justice and fortitude, and nothing in life is of more value for men than these.

[vernareed]

I heard the eastern star were the womens group. The rainbows was the group for the teenage girls. And the demolays was the group for the teenage boys. When I was a sophomore in early 1960s I was "rushed" to join the rainbow girls, but didn't know anything about any of that but my dad told me no. Don't know what my dad knew if anything, he just didn't think that was necessary.

Official history says that the people of France donated the statue of liberty to America, to celebrate friendship, a century of freedom, etc. the fact is that French people did not know about it, France was in a deep financial crisis then; It was the freemasonic government who ‘donated’ the statue, thus cementing their universal brotherhood of men!!! Bartholdi, Eiffel, etc. were all freemason brothers

When we were about 13 four of us went in the mysterious local/ lodge church or whatever it was called back when nobody locked their doors, we thought it was the KKK or something weird and that they did human sacrifices, they had an altar type thing with three thrones in there, we played around and when people pulled into the parking lot we hid under those chairs, the legs were wrapped with cloth. A few guys were milling about and when they went into the back room we took off running out the front door, they chased us down the street to the creek and we escaped.🤣🤣🤣 Old guys too out of shape to catch us one guy looked like Boss Hogg, It was spooky.

Min. 8: The original Mason Masters have never been only "craftsmen", but carried millenium old knowledge about space shaping and mindset creating through the means of consciously constructed architecture. Look at the gothic cathedrals or the egyptian temples: They're buildt to uplift humans into divine realms! Their builders were highly skilled priests of holy stonework!

[MissPerriwinkle]

my friend died 10 days of a heart attack after his initiation into the 33rd degree. wonder if the rituals can be kind of rough, emotionally .

[Dukesparty]

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

[BigDawg]

Self taught is the most reliant & trustworthy way to gain wisdom, not from another man teaching u to walk backwards for decades at a time! Time will always repeat itself 🤔

[JohnDavis_]

Ezekiel 8:12 (KJV) Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, The LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth.

Ezekiel 8:16 (KJV) And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD'S house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.

Their Abominations have persisted.

[ThomasAllan-uptd]

Why do they call themselves free when they have to hide away?

[Aaronemmanuel-]

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

It's like you ask a team that make conspiracies if it's true, they will deny it and they will show you proof that they are good.
