There is so much wrong with this. At 0:28 Only a few Lodges ask you to don special gear. Most of the time, a Candidate is wearing his own clothing but adjusted for the ceremony. The first two red flags, the noose (cable tow!) and the blindfold (hoodwink)... yes, when taken out of context, this could be construed as a red flag...but this guy is supposed to have been a Mason...he should KNOW the context. The fact he makes them out to be red flags...makes me think this guy has never been a Mason...or at the very most, was Initiated and only retained his membership for a short while. the hoodwink and the cable tow have a symbolic meaning. He obviously hasn't grasped it. @1:24 He says the dagger pokes you in the best...and is painful. I am unsure if he just has this wrong, or if, when it was done to him, the guy got it wrong. The dagger (poignard) is PLACED on to the mans naked left breast. At no point should the point of the dagger have any pressure on it, leading to pain or discomfort. At no point should you be warned of any pain...because there is supposed to be NO pain. This leads me again to think this guy has never been a Mason...OR that the "Inner Guard" of his Lodge needs educating! @1:46 and at 2:55 ish...He talks about the physical penalties of revealing the secrets of Freemasonry (the secrets are merely the sign, grip and word of the Degree being worked) but CONVENIENTLY FORGETS TO MENTION...that right after they are explained to him, he is told that these are ANCIENT penalties (ie, from the times of King Solomon) and NO LONGER APPLY. In other words, if a Mason does reveal the secrets to a non-Mason, the absolute worst thing to happen will be expulsion from Freemasonry. We do not want men in Freemasonry, that cannot keep, even the most unimportant of things, to himself. 2:12 Freemasons do not take oaths. We take obligations, which are not the same things at all. An oath is a promise to a god or a monarch. An obligation is a promise to the self. This character is interspersing the words oath and obligation. It's JUST obligations. 2:29 Dedicated to St. John? That's only for that Lodge to decide. Most lodges make absolutely no reference to any particular faith. 2:41 "will not reveal any parts of Freemasonry". That is incorrect. The Candidate promises not to reveal any part or parts of the SECRETS (ie the aforementioned sign, grip and word of the Degree being worked) of Freemasonry. All else is perfectly open for discussion with non-Masons. @3:25 You cannot say all are "good Christin guys" as a man's faith has no bearing on his membership. We have Masons from all the worlds faiths...because religion is completely irrelevant in Freemasonry. @4:01 We're not "hidden under a web of secrecy". As I have already said, almost nothing in Freemasonry is secret....just the sign, grip and word of the Degree. ALL ELSE can be discussed. Also ANYONE can buy a ritual book to see for themselves, that what this character is saying, is total nonsense. You don't need any special passwords, or codes...just buy it as you would anything from the internet. Don't take my word for it...buy a book and see it for yourself. 4:18 "Brainwashed"? Buddy, from what you have said, you don't HAVE much of a brain TO wash, even if we did do that sort of thing. You don't seem to be particularly bright, so it is my estimation, that we dodged a bullet when you left.
@@pianoplayer2260 They are what they are, I have no right to defend nor condemn them. I can only judge what I understand, and since I understand freemasonry I will defend it to an extent. Christianity I understand, so I will defend it. But Mormonism and Jehovah's witnesses? I do not understand, so I would be a fool to condemn or defend. Being different isn't always good, you are correct there.
He is a lier and an oath breaker. I would not trust a "man" like this on the witness stand, wearing the uniform of a police officer or a soldier, I would not trust this "man" as a doctor or in a political office, and I would not trust this "man" to be faithful to his wife. He does not take oaths seriously and has no problems lying about what is actually said.... Shameful to say the least, and the people that believe it clearly have no idea.
The amount of deceit that this person is spreading to people is the very reason why Freemasons are feared instead of loved in the very country they helped build and make free. Any INTELLIGENT person can literally look up Freemasons and see that they are not a religion. So saying “Christian men” automatically makes me know this person is an idiot. That’s like saying our Military are all good Christian men. SMH sounds stupid right? The Freemasons wouldn’t promise to take out your tongue or hurt you in any way as they are against hurting people, even the ones that deserve it. Need an example? Well if that was all true, did he get his tongue taken out after making this video? I’m sure he’s not hard to find.
Much of this is done for symbolic reasons. It is traditional and current initiations follow the same path as those of hundreds of years ago. I am not prepared to break my oath but freemasonry is so enjoyable and makes good men better men.
John 18:20 “Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:22 “Abstain from all appearance of evil.” Ephesians 5:11 “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” Also, there are no "good men," and no man is righteous. And why do you call other men who have never been born again your brother? You ought to really think about this. Don't think about your Masonic oath, think about how you are going to answer the Lord Jesus Christ at the judgment. Are you saved?
Was it ever ok to rip someone's tounge out? I realise people don't take this stuff seriously, but perhaps you shouldn't be taking such disturbing oaths.

Exactly. These "men" freely break their vows with no shame. How could they be trusted to take anything else seriously? How could they be trusted on the witness stand? How could they be trusted to keep the oath of a police officer or soldier? How could they be trusted to keep the oath of a Dr or the oath of political office? How could they be trusted to keep the oath of a husband to their wife? Oath breakers are liars. That is indisputable. Shame on this "man", and shame on these people that slander good men with zero proof of misdeeds or wrong doing.
So this guy makes a promise to not reveal anything of the ritual and here he is describing it some detail so in other words the man cannot keep his word so he's not trustworthy and lacks integrity
Very good explanation of what it is like becoming an EA. I too am a former Freemason and was very involved in other bodies of Freemasonry such as the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite, and the Ancient Arabic Order of the Mystic Shrine (Shriners). I also took part in other Masonic education classes hosted by the Masonic Service Association of North America. After coming to Jesus I was led by the Holy Spirit to conduct a side by side comparison of the teachings of Freemasonry and the Word of God. After finding the two teachings are not compatible I renounced Freemasonry and asked Jesus to forgive me of my sin. Having compiled all of this information simply to answer my own questions I knew there was more I needed to do, I started sharing this information freely to anyone that wanted to know the Truth from a Biblical standpoint. I now have a ministry known as Freemasonry FACTs and I expose Freemasonry for the false religion it really is.
