(Continued from Proof that Charles Taze Russell was masonic)
IN THE MASONIC WORDS OF JEHOVAH WITNESS FOUNDER CHARLES RUSSELLMasonic orders focus on Egyptology. So, masonic agent Charles Taze Russell used the SUN AND SATAN WORSHIP OF ANCIENT EGYPT to interpret Bible passages and prophecy. Pyramids were burial chambers for the ‘god-kings’ or pharaohs. They were designed to lead the pharaoh’s soul to the so-called ‘sun god!’ The true context of Bible Scripture is the Word of the Most High and Living God. He will never use satanic tombs in honor of Satan to teach humanity anything! To incorporate masonic and other false dogma into teachings ‘from the Bible,’ is pure idolatry and witchcraft. God forbade such sin in Exodus 20:1-5, warning, “I Am the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt [with its sun worship and pyramid paths to the afterlife!] Out of, [that is completely redeemed from] the house of bondage. You will have no other gods before Me …” Þ In accordance with the Bible passages Russell misquoted to push his masonic agenda, he declared, "I said that I had been in conference with the Great Master Workman, [masons call this god ‘the Great Architect of the Universe,’] the Lord himself, and I have secret information through the ‘holy spirit’ and guidance in respect to what the Bible says, and that contains all the truth on every subject… So, if we talk to our masonic friends about the Temple and its meaning, and about being good masons, and about the Great [Egyptian] Pyramid, which is the very emblem masons use, and what the Great Pyramid signifies, our masonic friends are astonished.... We are discussing free and accepted masonry--the Bible Masonry, my friends." Truthfully, Baphomet the devil of the masonic lodge and the Lord Jesus Christ; Creator of heaven and earth and God of the whole Bible, have NOTHING in common! (Jn. 1:1-14.) Still, Russell shamelessly continues to blend the Bible with masonic Egyptology and states, "...For you know the Head of the [masonic] pyramid is a perfect pyramid itself, and all the stones under that simply come into line with the top stone; and that top stone is what the Bible declares Jesus is--the chief cornerstone… The next thing will be that which our Masonic friends make so much of, and which we make so much of namely: the glorification of the temple. [THE TRUE GOD OF THE BIBLE STATED THAT HE DOES NOT LIVE IN TEMPLES MADE WITH HUMAN HANDS! Acts 7:44-50!] That is a grand thing in masonry. They picture how Solomon the wise, the type of Jesus--offered the sacrifice, and how God accepted it, and God’s glory came into the Temple. Just so our Temple, the Church in glory, will not be the Temple of God until the Heavenly Father himself has recognized it." These satanic ramblings about Solomon and the Israeli temple are pure masonic lies! Þ Egyptologist Russell had it all wrong and no one who studied the Bible can make such a grievous mistake without committing it on purpose! A ‘cornerstone,’ as the cornerstone of Jesus’ spiritual body, is the foundation or basis of the spiritual building or temple of the Holy Spirit, (1 Corinthians 3:16-17.) Jesus has nothing to do with the pyramid of masonic orders, with a triangle or ‘cap stone’ on top of the building. Russell and those who teach this deception confuse Jesus’ spiritual temple with the pyramid-dogmas of masonic orders, in which the ‘capstone’ contains the all-seeing eye of Baphomet, the god of the masonic lodge. Þ God’s eternal New Testament Covenant temple is the human spirits, souls or minds, and bodies of ALL true believers, whom Jesus redeemed with His blood “from every tribe, tongue, and nation!” (1 Ths. 5:23; Rom. 12:1-2; 1 Cor. 3:16-17; 6:15-20; Jn. 3:16-17; 1:12-13! 3:3-5; Eph. 1:7, 12-14!) Considering their love for masonic Egyptology, how much Godly Truth and Scriptural fact can be in Jehovah’s Witnesses’ predictions and their interpretations of Scripture? It is important to understand that Jehovah's Witnesses do not really get their information and teachings from the Bible, but from their masonic Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. The title ‘Watchtower’ signifies the fact that Baphomet-worshipping masons see themselves as “Watch Men.” They “watch” constantly what happens in religious circles and in the secular world, to execute their masonic plans to bring the One World Order “to its feet;” thus controlling human life on earth. Þ MM Outreach duly noted that Russell even changed the ‘royal priesthood’ of Christ to a “divine priesthood,” and declared that this priesthood is the masonic/Roman Catholic Knights Templar! In Russell’s words, ‘...A thousand years during which these [Roman Catholic, masonic] Knights Templar are to scatter blessings to all the families of the earth’. The author continued, “Heresy aside, Russell just loved to use masonic terms and show how he and his followers were superior “masons and superior [Roman Catholic] “Knights Templar.” Most audaciously, Russell ‘gallantly’ invites JW members to join his masonic order. He said, “...If you feel that you want to become a member of the Free and Accepted Order of Masonry, and do not feel free and masonic enough as a follower of Christ, God bless you, use your own judgement; that is yours to decide not mine. But now I am talking about this great order of masonry of which Jesus is the Grand Master. This Order is to be entered in a peculiar way. There are certain conditions--the low gate, the narrow way, the difficult path… “Though I have never been a Mason, [liar liar pants on fire!] I have heard that in Masonry they have something which very closely illustrates all of this’.” So, by Russell's own words, minus the "double-talk" and the parallels he draws to masonry all through this discourse, he plainly says he has never been a mason. He gives the masons their due, however, when he says, “Our masonic friends have it down very fine. I do not know where they got it so well. I have often wondered where they found out so many of the secrets of our High and Accepted Order of Masonry. From the time you come in to be a member of the Royal Priesthood, a living stone, a member of the craft of Masonry, from the Lord's stand-point ...If any man will be a living stone in the Temple, if anyone will be a member of this High, Free and Accepted Masonry--let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” Þ Nevertheless, although the shameless blasphemer Charles Taze Russell tried to cover this indisputable declaration with more double talk, he confessed in Convention & Reports Sermons,’ “I am a Free Mason… Because that is what our masonic brethren like to tell us, that they are free and accepted masons. That is their style of putting it. I am a free and accepted mason. I trust you all are …” Þ Someone wrote, “I can hear the gasps from modern Jehovah's Witnesses that their exalted leader used the word "cross," [although it might not trouble them that he blasphemes against the High and Almighty God Who created heaven and earth,] but he said this before "new light" on the "torture stake," so I guess masonic/Illuminist Russell “can be excused for his ‘ignorance,’” although he proclaimed that [as god himself,] he knows everything!
THE WATCH TOWER magazine, 05/15/1925, p. 148, "The great Pyramid of Egypt, standing as a silent and animate witness of the Lord, is a messenger; and its testimony speaks with great eloquence concerning the divine plan (Isaiah 19:19)" This passage in Isaiah 9:18-25 does NOT refer to the idolatrous Egyptian pyramids! This is figurative speech, because Biblical believers of the Lord Jesus Christ come from personal believers among the Hebrew nation as well as from all the Gentile or non-Hebrew nations of the whole world, (symbolized by Egypt and Assyria,) as “a pillar to the Lord for a sign and a witness” to the whole unbelieving world, (verse 17.) In New Testament terms, all believers in Jesus Christ live under His Eternal New Testament Covenant. They live neither under the ousted Old Testament law or prophesies that pertain to the physical land of Israel, nor any other geographical territory such as the literal land of Egypt. Just as Egyptology, the Israeli Timeline doctrine is a great Illuminati/masonic deception that was ingrained in most modern churches by Catholic, masonic, Jesuit infiltrators, exactly like Charles Taze Russell was! The masonic JW Society is part of this deception. In fact, the entire Old Testament has now only one function: it was written as examples of what happened to the Old Israelites because of their disobedience to God, and it is for our admonition, lest we think we can disobey God because we live under His grace in Jesus Christ, (1 Cor. 10:11.)
► Here follow JW founder Russell’s two different accounts of his end-time prophecy according to The Great Egyptian Pyramid of Giza. [Note that Egyptology ‘end-time’ interpretations of Bible truth and prophecy are rife among other Christian denominations as well!] From Studies in the [Watchtower] Scriptures, Vol. 3 (early edition), "...This measure [of this satanic pyramid] is 1,542 inches, and indicates the year B.C. 1542, as the date at that point. Then measuring down the "Entrance Passage" from that point, to find the distance to the entrance of the "Pit", representing the great trouble and destruction with which this age is to close, when evil will be overthrown from power, we find it to be 3,416 inches, symbolizing 3,416 years from the above date, B.C. 1542. This calculation shows A.D. 1874 as marking the beginning of the period of trouble; for 1,542 years B.C. plus 1,874 years equals 3,416 years. Thus the Pyramid [note the respectful capital letter,] witnesses that the close of 1874 was the chronological beginning of the time of trouble…” Russell, Studies in the [Watchtower] Scriptures, Vol. 3 (1923 edition,) "...This measure is 1,542 inches, and indicates the year B.C. 1542, as the date at that point. Then measuring down the "Entrance Passage" from that point, to find the distance to the entrance of the "Pit", representing the great trouble and destruction with which this age is to close, when evil will be overthrown from power, we find it to be 3,457 inches, [What happened to 3,416 inches?] symbolizing 3,457 years [what happened to 3,416 years?] from the above date, B.C. 1542. This calculation shows A.D. 1915 [what happened to 1874?] as marking the beginning of the period of trouble; for 1,542 years B.C. plus 1915 years equals 3,457 years. Thus the Pyramid witnesses that the close of 1914 was the.. beginning of the time of trouble…" Because JWs were deceased, who should “still have been alive in 1874 when Jesus returned,” the prophetic date was adjusted to 1914! Of course, 1914 was also just another lie! This is a common problem with false prophecies. It is also witnessed in the teachings of Ellen White, (false prophetess of the Seventh Day Adventist Church,) and the setting of dates as deadlines for the ‘return of Christ’ or in this case, “the beginning of trouble…” Þ ALL DATES OF JESUS’ RETURN ARE FALSE! JESUS SAID NO ONE, NOT EVEN THE HOLY ANGELS, KNOW WHICH DAY AND HOUR HE WILL RETURN! (Mt. 24:36!!!) What’s more, these so-called prophets should simply understand the trouble the world has been facing since Medieval times. Even in 2021, this was not the final end of the end yet! Þ Russell does not refer to the truth of New Testament Scripture in any of these so-called ‘scientific’ prophesies found in the most idolatrous pyramidal tombs of Old Egypt. God is in control of His whole universe, but Egypt has always been and still is being ruled by their many false gods, not by the God of the Bible. To try and find the Word of God in these tombs is pure idolatry. Jesus, the God of the Bible, is the God of the spiritually ever-living. The God of the Bible is not the ‘guardian’ of mummified Egyptian kings. ► Russell’s numerous prophecies, based on masonic Egyptology, proves him a false prophet and an extremely deceptive masonic teacher. God commanded in the physical Old Testament covenant that false prophets must be stoned to death to purge His believers from their destructive ways! “You will not spare him or conceal him, you will not consent to him or listen to him, and you will stone him… because he sought to entice you away from the Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of… bondage!” [Read Deuteronomy Chapter 13 to see how God hates deception, thus dealing strictly with deceivers!] Consequently, the writers Griese, Rich/Banial, and Vince wrote, “The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society had lots of experience setting and changing dates, which are much harder to catch nowadays. They became much more obscure about their dates. These days they are simply saying that Armageddon, which they also totally misinterpret, is very close.” Þ In the spiritual New Testament dispensation, physical stoning can be equated to exposing and rejecting — which is a definite New Testament commandment of God, (Eph. 5:11; 2 Jn. v. 9-10.) Þ How is it possible that anyone can miss the masonic lingo, masonic Egyptology, and the defence of the worship of Baphomet, the god of the masonic lodge, in what Russell is saying? Russell CLEARLY STATED he was teaching his followers masonic dogma not truth from the Bible. Þ Moreover, no one, except the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, has ‘secret and superior [or extra] information’ about His universe and the end times. In fact, the true Holy Spirit proclaimed in Hebrews 1:1-3, “God, Who at various times and ways spoke in time past [or during the Old Testament covenant] by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, Whom He has appointed Heir of all things, through Whom also he made the worlds, Who, being the Brightness of His glory and the express Image of His Person, (Col 2:9-10,) and upholding all things by the Word of His power, [given to us in the full context of Bible Scripture,] when he had by himself purged our sins…” Þ Claiming special and ‘extra revelation knowledge’ or things that are “above that which is written” in the truth of “all Scripture,” is a mark of all false Christian/masonic teachers. The contextual truth of the whole Bible was given to reveal everything humanity needs to know concerning God, salvation, redemption, blessing, and even the end time!
Russell believed in, and published much on ‘The [masonic] Golden Age’ The entire concept of ‘the golden age’ was not taken from the Bible but from Greek mythology. This is another favorite source of masonic dogma. The golden age teaches that there will be five ages: silver, bronze, heroic, iron, (a period of social decline,) and a golden age, typified by prosperity, peace, and political stability on a so-called “restored earth” or ‘new paradise’ on earth. As if it was not bad enough that Charles Taze Russell built the entire Jehovah’s Witnesses Society on Egyptology and other masonic teachings, his teachings on this pagan philosophy also proves that he was great deceiver. Nowhere in the Gospels of Jesus or in the Epistles of the apostles, is there any reference to a “golden age” on earth. Jesus Himself declared in Matthew chapters 24-25 that religious deception, lovelessness, war, famine, and everything bad will typify the end of the end times! As all of deceived humanity “is in the power of the evil one,” (1 Jn. 5:19,) Jesus clearly prophesied that these last of the end times we are living in, will be like the days of Noah and Lot. Everything bad will become worse until that glorious Day when Jesus will appear on the clouds to take His true, Scriptural believers to His true heaven with Him, and to judge everyone else. 2 Thessalonians 1:6-12 describes exactly what will happen on that glorious Day, “Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, and to give you who are troubled rest… when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in FLAMING FIRE TAKING VENGEANCE on those who do not know God, AND ON THOSE WHO DO NOT OBEY THE [TRUE] GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. These will be punished with everlasting destruction [in eternal hell as Jesus taught throughout the Bible, not by ‘annihilation,’] from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, when He comes in That Day, to be glorified in His [believing] saints…” 2 Peter 3:10-14 confirmed, “The [One and Only] Day of the Lord [when He returns to earth] will come as [unexpected] as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will PASS AWAY with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; BOTH THE EARTH AND THE WORKS THAT ARE IN IT WILL BE BURNED UP… [THIS FALLEN WORLD WILL NOT BE CHANGED INTO A ‘GOOD WORLD. IT WILL BE UTTERLY DESTROYED...]”
