This is in reference to this post.. https://greatawakening.win/p/15JAlp0GF2/i-am-a-freemason/ Felt drawn to reply with what I know and have studied, but it took several days for me to get to my internet safe space to do so.
Saw your post and wanted to reply very badly, but wasn't able to do so at the time. I have studied Freemasons and been intrigued with them my whole life. My Grandfather died as a 33rd degree in the Scottish Rite. He wasn't awarded this level until he was either 92 or 93. He absolutely loved Freemasonry and spent all of his time selling Shriner Circus tickets and taking kids to the hospital in Louisiana. He was not an evil man, nor was he a Satan worshiper of any sort. This pretty much sums up 95% of Freemasons. The problem lies in the other 5%.
To truly understand Freemasonry you must read the writings of Manly P Hall and Albert Pike. When you read and study their writings you will find that they describe two "rings" of Freemasonry. The outer ring is made of people who are out there doing good, raising money, and giving Freemasonry a good name. These are the people like my Grandfather and more than likely yours too. The inner ring is simply using the outer ring for fundraising and all the labor of doing good for others. The inner ring is made up with groups such as The Royal Order of Jesters. If you haven't heard of them, do some searches and see what they do. You will find judges, politicians, cops, etc...all being busted for being pederasses, taking "fishing trips" to South America..yet all they catch are 12 year olds, and a lot of child sex trafficking here in the states. They are absolute scum.
Anyway, you join the outer ring and if they think you have the right "character" then you are invited into their little scumbag ring. It is all compartmentalized much like the freemason/illuminati controlled See Eye Aye. Only the people at the top of the pyramid know what is truly happening, the rest of them are simply cogs in the machine.
How to know a "bad" Freemason? Influence makes their world turn. My Grandfather joined the Masons after WWII. He had been a Mason for about 70 years before his 33rd degree. Why did it take so long? Because he was on the outer ring, was just a simple farmer, and didn't have a huge amount of influence on those around him. Now compare that with the famous people we know, such as rap stars and Shaquille O'neal. We can agree that their influence is far reaching..and at their tender ages most are already 33rd degree. Another example is the founder of the Mormon church, whose rituals are simply copies of the Freemason rituals. The founder, Joseph Smith, "was not a Mason" they say. However, both his brother and father were 33rd degree Masons...and as soon as he got his church started, he was brought into the Masons and awarded the 33rd degree the first day. So...how much influence did he have on people? HUGE!
All of these huge churches and denominations that are going woke and driving their churches and followers over the cliff to hell have been infiltrated by the Freemasons. This is why they have "lost" their way..they didn't lose it, they are steering their people down the road to hell, and are doing it with joy in their hearts.
But Freemasons read the Bible they say...Freemasons won't take you unless you believe in God they say. Yes..you must believe that there is "A god"..but not the one true God. As far as their "Bible", they don't read it in the same way we do. In one of Manley P Hall's books it reads as a Bible study guide, but what you learn is that they believe the Bible is read one way by the "cattle" and another "true and enlightened" way by Freemasons. We just won't ever know the "truth" like they do, and we are destined to be dead, slaves, or simply ignorant. They take every single Bible story back to the Egyptians and false gods. This is their "secret". Luckily, their "secret" knowledge..the Bible...also teaches us about them and their occultism, and false god worship. So one is right, the other is of the devil himself. You can decide which is which.
I'm not at home right now, so I don't have the books referred to right in front of me. If anyone wants to know the names of the books just let me know. In my Christian faith most would consider me a Berean. Really, this applies to my life in general and most people here, especially autist and those who understand why autist are so important. We don't take someone's word..we need sauce..we need to see it, put it into proper context, and to verify that this is what is being said or taught. For this reason, close to 1/3 of my substantial library isn't made up of books I necessarily wanted to read, but for proofing various rumors about Freemasons/various religions/Global order WEF writings etc. I don't want to see a jpg of a supposed book and quotes..I want to hold the book in my hand and read it for myself. You would be surprised at how many fake quotes are floating around here and among the Red Pill Society. These people are bad enough, and I think that these fake quotes are meant to make people look like nutters who simply repeat what they have heard, rather than actually looking into it for themselves. This is why actual SAUCE is so important with all of our postings that make claims about people.
If anyone is interested in discussing these subjects, or getting a good list of books to buy, just send me a message and I will get back to you. I won't forget about you, but I don't have actual internet access so putting a post like this together doesn't happen very often for me.
If you are still reading this then you are actually interested in what is being said. So, I'm going to throw one more thing at you....
Grew up with a Freemason Grandfather, he was a great man and he NEVER discussed Freemasonry past circus tickets and getting kids to the Shriner hospitals. I didn't know anything about him being a Mason until I was in my twenties and up until then I didn't know anything about them...so riddle me this.
All thru grade school I had an infatuation with drawing pyramids, eyeballs, King Cobras, and to this day have a serious attraction to the numbers 3,6, and 9. My main focus is on the number 3, followed by 9 and 6. In school I never did daily work, except in math, and depended on my excellent test scores to get by. We took achievement tests in 5th grade and all of my scores came back PHS (Post High School). They wanted to move me up a grade but my dad wouldn't let them as I was already the youngest in my class every year. My birthday was the last day before the cutoff. Started my senior year being 16. Egyptian history was always fascinating to me as was Greek and Roman history. This bothered me for some time after I started researching Freemasons, but one day it kind of hit me like a two ton heavy thing. I had been praying for direction and answers, and one day I realized that my infatuation wasn't important for me as a child, but it was put there so that in the future it would perhaps steer me to take notice of the numbers and symbols that stuck in my brain and really study up on Freemasonry. That has surely happened, and in a yuge way. Anyone else have a story like this to share? I can't be alone in this.
Much love to you all..and remember that God's Word tells us that being part of secret societies is not a good thing. All of God's work and teachings can be done and taught in the light, not in the dark. That right there should be enough to convince Bible believing people that Freemasonry is going down the wrong path. If you are in it, get out and follow the narrow path to freedom and everlasting life.
Peace be with you all.

My WWII veteran grandfather was a Freemason, not sure what degree he achieved as his membership was not a proud family subject. He molested all three of his daughters, the eldest of which was a member as a teen of the Order of the Eastern Star. She is severely schizophrenic, along with another of her sisters. Yes, I have always been drawn to occult, never thought it might be due to my families history with Masons. Does make one think a bit, eh. Glad you had a G Pa you can say was a good man, a good Mason.
