The Freemasons trace their origins back to the medieval stonemason guilds of Europe in the 1500s. Back in the day, these guilds were responsible for building the great cathedrals and castles, and they were some of the most skilled craftsmen around. These stonemasons needed a way to organize themselves, pass down knowledge, and ensure only the most trusted men were allowed to join.
Over time, these guilds started accepting members who weren’t actually stonemasons, like merchants, scholars, and noblemen. They eventually moved from being a trade organization to a more philosophical and social society. The first Grand Lodge was established in 1717 in London, marking the formal beginning of Freemasonry as an organized entity. From there, it spread across Europe and eventually to the rest of the world, particularly to the U.S. during the 18th century.
Members are expected to believe in a "Supreme Being" (not the Christian God). Even though Freemasonry is not a religion, atheists and agnostics cannot join. For Freemasons, the belief in a supreme being is essential to be a good person. The idea is that by making good men better, they can make society better.
Now, here's an important question: why are they tied to so much evil in the world? The truth is, most Freemasons aren’t bad people. The problem lies with the ones at the top, just like with any influential organization. And that’s part of the plan; keep us confused about who the real enemy is through lies and deceit.
And just to make it clear, Freemasonry at its core is NOT Christian. The Bible warns that things held in secret will eventually be revealed (Luke 8:17). It also says not to swear oaths (Matt 5:34) and warns about those who have secret gestures, winks, or signals (Proverbs 6:13).
The oaths, rituals, and symbols in Freemasonry come from ancient religions and are rooted in occult knowledge, linked with hermetic practices like magic and divination. When a Mason denies any occult connection, they're still in the dark about their own craft, or they're lying.
