My wife and I left the church several years ago. When we left the church we left God. I felt that if I was deceived already, how could anything else possibly be true. Well as several months went on, we had a divine desire to read the new testament as a child, without all the Mormon dogma in our minds. The truth started to unfold in our hearts and minds as we studied the words of the savior and his true disciples. All the feelings and emotions that the church pressed into our minds since childhood, began to evaporate as we read the bible with the spirit of truth. I plead with every Mormon our their to study the real words of Christ as they were intended. It will change your life, you will feel the true spirit as you accept Christ and stop practicing the archaic teachings of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young. God is not chaos, and love cannot exist among the chaos. The teachings of the Mormon church make you religious to a false cause, but you never gain true spirituality due to the illusions you believe. Great videos Jess, keep up the great work!
@@TheChrishendrix Chris, I will tell you this....I was Mormon for 25 years of my life. Went to 3hr church, paid my tithing, fullfilled callings, read the book of mormon. Over the 25 years, I performed a bunch of outward things, that I was told would draw me to God. Joseph wasn't a prophet and the church is an illusion. I read the new testament and realized Christ taught spirituality, he didn't teach religion. When I started applying and understanding the teachings of the savior, my life changed. I loved more, I forgave more, I judgeless, I serve,teach and help anyone I can. The message of Christ will change your life. That's how I know Chris. I was changed spiritually. If you follow Illusions,you will not see spiritual growth and the spirit of truth can't teach.
@@physynergy5252 What you say makes no sense at all. You won't be able to explain what the difference is when you read the scriptures as you do now and when you were LDS. The words are identical. Tell me what understanding you now have about Jesus... that you didn't before. And I know I can tell you I have that understanding and more.
@@mrnirom5107 I know you believe in Mormon Dogma. John 8:23. Says different . I believe in Christ . If we were divine we would all have supernatural powers. It is preposterous to even think of such a thing Christ is incarnate God is Spirit Your a typical Mormon that doesn't read and study the Bible. You ignore God's Truth and accept Smith's truth Smith was a very bad man. I've read all Smith's Writings. The BoM is Fiction When are people going to wake up to this religious con ? You would think with all those major civilizations and battles archeologists.would have found real evidence in 180 years. That's because the BoM is Fiction It's the same con as the book of Abraham A made up story using ordinary Egyptian funeral documents from the Ptolemaic Era Mormonism is completely a fake religion The only thing you got going for you is moral values . everything else is a fabrication. Mormonism has hit an iceberg and is a sinking ship Your Leaders have no power they are false prophets and false apostles God doesn't need our help. We need God's Help
I'm in the process of leaving the church and I just happened across your videos and find them so informative and I am very thankful to you . I feel like I've been misled my entire life but thank goodness I've come to know Jesus
Praise the Lord, Shellie. I'm so glad you are being enlightened and delivered by the Lord Jesus. I pray for your protection and being brought into your destiny as a member of the body of Christ. The Lord is exposing the lies of cults and will destroy the works of the devil, just as Jesus said He would. God bless you.
This is so incredible Shellie. Welcome to the family of the God! So many seem to leave LDS and become atheist or agnostic or maybe those are just some of the more vocal ones. It blows my mind that someone could leave the LDS cult system and find the Biblical Jesus Christ. God is there for those that seek and knock and question the beliefs they grew up with.
@@hollayevladimiroff131 oh yes I did leave and I feel so much better. Still have friends and family in the church and many of the members are special to me . But for me it's great to be out
I am a Christian and decades ago a man who wanted to date me worked for some Mormons down the street. He brought me a Mormon track that said the Angel Moroni came and said things to Smith that sounded like they were from the KJV but the message was different. Earlier that morning in prayer and reading the Bible I had read a verse "Even if an angel comes to you with a different Gospel, let him be anathema" and I knew the Morning tract was b.s.
@@harshitgarg419so the two groups of Israelites came to America which matches with early Americas history right? And one group being cursed for being darker skin and promised to turn white if they followed their rules right?
One former LDS church historian recently commented on another video that had it not been for Smith and his family’s occult beliefs and practices, the Mormon church wouldn’t be here today.
Is all of Christianity an occult with its symbolism than? 🤔 please look into religious history prior to making a judgment, as this woman has only read up on anti Mormon literature and did not do any religious history at all www.quora.com/Why-do-Latter-day-Saints-Mormons-have-pentagrams-and-the-all-seeing-eye-on-their-temples

Mark Hofmann wrote numerous false documents and published them as "authentic." They are well known as the "Salamander letters." Hofmann was featured in "Who the f#@& did I marry" where it goes into detail how Hofmann purchased shells carbon dating from the same time Joseph Smith was alive. He then crushed the shells into powder and mixed it with ink that was made exactly like it was in the 1800's. He then purchased a used book and said he "found" a letter in the book and sell it to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Joseph Smith and his family were NEVER into the occult, magick, or "seer stones." These were all made up by Mark Hoffman. When he was caught, he planted a BOMB at one of the church members house and set it off. That or a car bomb.. it's been minute since I've seen "Who the f- did I marry." www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/ensign/1987/08/the-alvin-smith-story-fact-and-fiction?lang=eng
@@shawnbradford2243 that's the Salamander letter which was written by Hofmann and it was a fraudulent letter. To protect his forgery, he killed 2 people with BOMBS. JS was not in the occult. The Church in the 1980's released what they thought was historical, but when they found it to be a fraud they made that announcement as well, or rather, they just allowed Hofmann to admit in open court that they were written and faked by him. Watch the episode of Hofmann's wife describing how he forged the documents on "Who the (Bleep) did I marry. I think it's called love bomb 😂
Just read The Book of Mormon. its true. You may not want to hear that, but its true, authentic, prophet written, God inspired Holy Scripture. Read the Book of Mormon.
Thank you, Jessie, for your insightful videos. You have saved me. I was recently baptised into the Mormon church but have now renounced this action. I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar and in my most recent hypo-manic phase, I managed to fast-track my baptism into the church. Once on appropriate medication, I realised my mistake. Your well-researched and presented videos have helped me to get my thoughts straight and open my now clear thinking brain, to this terrible error! I'll be going back to the Christian church I'd been attending, and continuing on the straight and narrow path, seeking forgiveness and growing in my relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour. Blessings to you, Jessie.
God bless you as well, we left after only three weeks after baptism, going to c of e church now love it and being confirmed in June, I can’t wait for my classes. I didn’t feel this with the morman church, Jesus was looking after hubby and me. He is my saviour.
Diane Dukes, are you planning to join the Anglican Church? If you would not mind sharing: what caused you to leave the LDS Church so soon after baptism? You have spoken of feelings as being an important part of your spiritual search. Often, Latter-Day Saints are criticized for emphasizing a personal impression by the Holy Spirit, which may penetrate the emotions. Any further insights you may be able to provide would be most appreciated.
memorykeeper we left partly due to the fact that lots of things had been hidden, the god theory, about him his mother having sex with god, the tithings issue if you don’t give 10 per cent you can’t do temple stuff or be blessed by god, hubby was told lots of things after he was baptised. Women are seen as breeders or homemakers, nothing else, the worshiping of Joseph Smith it seemed they put him as high as god.
That's called Satan's tax code via the 501[c]3s; to which the Mormon machine loves & cherish. Including all major churches & megachurches, televangelists, etc. Money is the root of all evil, all in the name of Tithing.
N8V-Patriot Prayer Warrior The world is one big stage of deception and let’s not pretend it’s just church. I am sure you have some taboo including belief in government
I’m 28 years old. I was raised in Salt Lake City, I was raised Mormon, my names still on church records. Both my parents served missions, as did my brother (I’m the eldest of 5). I began to look into the Bible recently, and when I went to my parents with questions I was shocked to hear that neither of them had actually read the Bible. The Book of Mormon is all i was taught about in church. ‘Seek and ye shall find’ has always stuck with me. For many years I refused to seek, I associated Christ with the church, it’s still hard not to. The shame and guilt I had when I chose not to serve a mission was unbearable to me. I tried heroin for the first time as a junior in high school, and fell into addiction for several years. By the end, I was using intravenously. I refused to give Christ a chance because again, to me, Christ represented the ‘one true church’ with the ‘whole truth’. After years of struggling, I began praying. I started studying. While I have not read the entire Bible, nor Book of Mormon, I have seen things in the Bible that seem contradictory to the Book of Mormon. I ask myself if Jesus would stand by all the secrecy, the type of secrets I can’t even bring up to my family, because I’m not supposed to know for one, and for two, they truly believe if they were to even converse with me about these secrets and rituals, they’ll perish. I feel extremely alone, I feel afraid, I still can’t seem to shake the guilt for even questioning the teachings. But I have to speak my mind. The more I seek god, and Jesus, the further I am driven from the LDS religion. I see contradictions in what the Bible says and what the BOM says. I see similarities in the church, and freemasonry, which I believe is of the occult. I stumbled into a video about Alister Crowley, it spoke on the Freemasons, who’s symbolism was all over the high school I attended, in Utah. That lead me into researching more about freemasonry. I see what appears to be idolatry. Rituals. Magic. I was under the impression the church taught that you should always steer clear of any type of ‘magic’ be it black magic, white magic, even things like stones, tarot cards, etc. I don’t understand how I’m the only one in my family who sees Joseph Smith being a Freemason as a red flag. It seems the more I try to find god, and the more I research the church I was born into, the more my stomach hurts. I get a sick feeling, and sometimes i feel like that feeling comes from me questioning the beliefs I was raised with. On the other hand, I feel like it makes me sick because I am seeing evil, in this thing I’ve always believed. I don’t understand why or how a god would separate me from my family because I’m not endowed. Why would god not allow me into the ‘celestial kingdom’ - to meet him. My family can ‘come down’ to the level of heaven I’d likely be on, to see me, but I can’t go see them? That’s never sat right with me. I have a stronger testimony in Christ than I ever have at this time, and it seems to be driving me away from the church. And it’s uncomfortable. And scary. But I was told ‘seek, and ye shall find’. I’m finding things that can’t be right. From the racism that existed and exists in the church, from what the term ‘lamanite’ actually represents (my fiancé is Latina) to Joseph smith practicing what appears to be magic, or attempting to, to the polygamy the fundamentalists still practice (some live in my parents neighborhood, to this day, in salt lake county) to the rituals in the temple, the secrecy, I don’t know what is what anymore. I do believe in God, if he wasn’t real, I wouldn’t be here. I do believe in Christ, I’ve felt him, and I know that feeling. I also know the feeling of darkness, and the devil, from my experience and struggles with addiction. I am beginning to believe no religion, no church is necessary for me to have a relationship with God, or Jesus, or the Holy Spirit. And I just don’t know what to do honestly. The church has helped me, although I’ve been told not to disclose this - because it could anger members, my first rehab was paid for by the church. From tithing. I was told certain people would be upset if I talked openly about that. What kind of believer in Christ would be angry, knowing their money put me in treatment? How can one believe the teachings of Christ, and look down on me and judge me and shame me for the struggles I’ve faced, and decisions I’ve made, when I have such a strong testimony of God? I grew up in a state where you’re family is judged by how your lawn looks. On what you wear to church. Why did I never see anyone openly admit to struggling at church. Nobody smelled of alcohol, or cigarettes, nobody spoke anything positive toward ‘those people’. Shouldn’t a church claiming to have the whole truth, WANT more people in the building who are struggling? If someone came to church, smelling like alcohol or any substance at all - be welcomed and loved even more - knowing they’re at least trying to find God? They’re only judged. I don’t know what religion to follow. I don’t know if leaving my name in the church records even matters. I want God to know I believe. Would removing my name be a sign of disrespect? And if I removed my name, would I lose the Holy Spirit as I’ve been taught? And if so, what church should I go to to be baptized? Do I even need that, if I believe and accept Jesus as my lord and savior? What am I to do. I can’t approach these topics or ask these questions to any family, or any members, without them being offended and getting angry - interpreting my confusion as disrespect, regardless of how respectful I ask. It’s like the more I look for God, the more lost im becoming. Idk why im sharing this, I guess im truly confused and afraid. I know in my heart God knows me. If there is a god who would disallow me from seeing my family or being in his presence because I’m not a tithe payer, because I’m not endowed, I don’t know that I’d even want to meet him. This church can’t be what they’ve convinced me of being. I shouldn’t feel like this. So lost, but seeking simultaneously. I feel like a bad person, a lot, because I have these questions, and because i question. Because I am seeking. I respect the church, i respect all churches and religions. Must I pick one, and one only, to be considered a Christian? I have to find the right religion, and do everything they say, to meet my creator? The devil has worked hard on me. He’s either infiltrated the church, or I’ve allowed him to infiltrate my beliefs. That’s what I’m told. I pray if there’s anyone else like me who can relate, you don’t feel these feelings. Will this ever go away? I will try to continue to study the Bible, and pray, and I hope I find my truth. I still can’t believe how many members haven’t read the Bible. How is that possible? I thought we were supposed to start with the Bible. Idk anymore. I love my family, I love God. I’m more lost than I realized, writing this comment. I don’t expect anyone to read this novel, i didn’t plan on writing all this and idk why. Maybe someone out there will read this and not feel so alone. I don’t know. I’m just trying to find my own belief and cultivate a relationship with God. I am trying to do thy will. And it’s unbearable at times. The worlds a scary place. I love you all, whether you’re offended or agree, or want to tell me I’m in the wrong or right - I love you. I hope whoever needs to see this, gets something out of it. You’re not alone if you feel this struggle. We will be alright. Right?
Hi! Thanks for being so open and honest and for sharing all of this with me. I believe that all of humanity should set out on a quest for truth, even if truth is harsh and can be painful and will undo many beliefs you may have held deeply and aligned your life with. Truth matters. And what fills me with joy and peace and hope is believing wholeheartedly and with confident assurance that I have found absolute truth within the Word of God, the Bible. It is an entirely different Gospel than the one you grew up with in Mormonism. The doctrine is different. Even the God of the Bible is different, therefore making Salvation and every important and crucial aspect of Biblical Christianity different than that of Mormonism. And if you have Jesus wrong, how can you be Born Again and saved into the family of God eternally? Your trust has to be in the one true Savior and not the false savior who Joseph Smith wrote about when he created Mormonism and wrote the Book of Mormon as well as Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price. Joseph Smith was typical of many during that time who took the Bible, changed it, taught his followers not to trust it unless it was interpreted within the lense of LDS doctrinal beliefs or even changed into a translation where Joseph took away portions of Scripture, changed portions and also added to portions to change the story like in the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible. He had to personally change John chapter 1 to change who Jesus is so that it aligned with Mormonism's doctrinal beliefs. Be careful of any human who tries to alter the Word of God. But how can we trust the Bible, many ask? Well, there are lots of reasons and I'd love to get into some of them. The Bible is two books in one--The Old Testament and the New Testament. Both books self-authenticate one another through fulfilled prophesies to the level of mathematical impossibility that a human ever could have penned down the words without Divine inspiration. Not only this but we find historical accuracy within Scripture and have found ancient texts and manuscripts throughout every single century that align perfectly with the Bible we hold today, proving that the doctrine and message has never changed. Please purchase and read the book "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" by Josh and Sean McDowell if you'd like to get into the arguments for the validity and authenticity of the Bible. It's truly life changing! But simply through reading the Bible ourselves, we can learn and see who Jesus is and what He did for each one of us and that it is through Jesus Christ alone that we can receive Salvation. The Gospel of John in the New Testament, as well as Romans and Hebrews and others, lay this out for us so clearly and are everything we need to come to know Jesus Christ as our personal Savior. But Biblical Scripture is all the inspired, active, living Word of God and is so important to read and to know. This is really the only reason we need churches to preach the Word... so that we can learn and grow and also be living in fellowship with other Christians who can help us, hold us accountable, love us, care for us when needed and who can do what you mentioned above and be authentic friends who can help us with our addictions and struggles and give us direction and resources and encouragement to get well again. But God alone heals us and has the power over Satan's strongholds and sin. When we are born again (saved!) into the family of God, we become new creations and God's Holy Spirit indwells us and we finally have power through Him to defeat the sins in our lives. But outside of being saved and having God in our lives, we are still in bondage to our sins and have no power to defeat them on our own. Salvation equals freedom! Freedom from death and sin, freedom from guilt and pain, freedom from depression and anxiety... because God forgives each and every sinner who repents and surrenders his life to Christ, accepting and trusting in Jesus Christ alone for the Salvation of his soul. And then its no longer us living on our own but is GOD IN US living. And we can hold a confident assurance of Salvation as we root our lives in God's truth and establish our faith as we grow closer to Him spiritually. It's a journey. But the most important journey anyone will ever take. Finding Biblical Christianity is humanity's only source of hope, truth, purpose, joy and peace. I personally urge you to continue in the Word of God, continue on your quest for truth. Ask ALL the questions. Seek after ALL the answers. Don't ever be content to merely accept a "blind faith" but keep learning until you realize you can find a faith so sufficient, you can't help but to share it with everyone you know so that they too can experience the joy and hope found in relationship with Jesus Christ and have assurance of eternal Salvation. No church is perfect because no human is perfect outside of Jesus Christ when he had His earthly ministry but that doesn't mean that church holds no importance. I typically encourage exMormons to try to find a local Baptist Church so that they can understand the doctrine held by Born Again Christians. Christians are worldwide, in many different churches (though many churches hold unbiblical doctrines so you have to be careful to align your doctrine with the Word of God), and the church is made up of individual believers around the globe who have been saved by God's grace. It's not a title or a building or one specific denomination or a corporate entity. It's believers meeting to learn about God, to worship Him and to equip themselves to share His Gospel and to live in community with like-minded believers who can love one another. I'm so glad you commented. I know my response is packed full of a LOT of things and may be a bit of a jumbled mess but I had to reply. Please know that you are loved by the God of the universe and you are not alone. You are seen, you are loved and your life matters. ❤️ I truly pray that you will be Biblically saved and that the Lord will use your life greatly to reach your family and community and friends within the LDS world and otherwise. I have seen incredible things happen over the last 5 plus years since starting this channel and I know the Holy Spirit is at work in your heart as we speak. Keep pursuing truth. Keep pursuing God. You'll never regret it. Sending with love and care for your life and your eternal soul. -Jessie
@@itsmejessie wow, that almost has me wanting to cry at work, there’s no words, thank you so much for takin the time to read my comment, and reply like you did, I can’t articulate to you how much it means to me. Makes me emotional. It wasn’t jumbled at all, it was well written and it made my day better, I needed to hear that more than I realized. The last thing I expected was a reply from you, I’m so grateful to have gotten one, and the way you worded everything - just, thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ll take your advice, I’ll keep looking, and I won’t forget this exchange. I think I’m gonna screen shot that and keep it on my phone to read whenever I feel doubtful. Thank you for what you do, thank you for replying and being so kind to me, you seem to be a great example of what living Christ like is - and that’s something I thought I was used to, but clearly I’m not. Nobody’s ever been so kind. Thank you. Have a great rest of your day, and weekend. You have helped me tremendously with your words.
@@eastonclark if I can be of any further guidance or encouragement to you, you can always reach me through my connected Facebook page called "Happiness is Free" (you'll see me in the main picture) and can send a message that I'll try to get to as soon as possible. I'm just a person who loves Jesus and wants to do my best to help others find hope and security within the truth of the Word of God. There are many incredible resources out there that can help guide you as you navigate LDS beliefs and put them up against those of Biblical Christianity and I'm happy to send some your way, if desired. But you're very welcome for the reply. I'm glad I caught your comment, as it's easy to miss many. I certainly am nothing important on my own but I am blessed and humbled to hold the treasure of the true Gospel within my heart and it's a privilege for me to share it with others. I'm so glad you are encouraged today. I truly hope you'll dive into the Bible and get to know who Jesus is. Maybe start with the Book of John in the New Testament? As James 1:5 says (which is a Bible verse most LDS people know by heart but they use it to try and prove the Book of Mormon rather than read it for what it actually says) if we ask God for wisdom, He will give it to us liberally! And what that means is that if we come to God and ask Him to give us spiritual wisdom and discernment, He will open up His Word to us and give us an understanding that we would never have otherwise. He gave us sound, intelligent minds that are able to discern truth from the lies. All of the questions and problems and fears arising in your heart that you mentioned above are valid and it's wise that you want to find satisfactory answers to all of them. You are certainly not alone, I might add. You're dealing with what hundreds of other LDS people are dealing with as well as they have begun to question everything and are on a quest to try to find truth. I know it's not easy. I know you have an entire family and community and history/background within the LDS church and it has defined your life for many, many years. And yet, here we are. You and I are now discussing beliefs and you've found my channel where I break down the vast differences between Mormonism and Biblical Christianity in over 50 videos. I'm so glad God crossed our paths and my prayer is that God uses me as a tool to help you find Salvation and truth. And that this very conversation is the starting point to you feeling bold and brave and empowered on your journey to find truth. May the Lord bless and keep you, may His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace. 🙏 Please don't ever ignore the Holy Spirit's prompting upon your heart as He leads you toward the most important thing in life... His free and beautiful Gospel. 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." John 3:16-18, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son." Ephesians 2:8-10, "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Titus 3:5, "He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.." Romans 8:38-39, "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." God bless you, friend.
Your intuition is guiding you in the right direction. Leaving mormonism will free you. I know I'm a random person, but I'm sending you love and peace. Everything will be ok. ❤
This is the most beautiful novel I have read!! Thanks for sharing! I left Mormonism last year. It wasn’t emotionally easy and that time, I was doing my internship up at the church headquarters in SLC. The more I desired to know Jesus Christ, the more it became spiritually easy for me to walk out of Mormonism though, socially and emotionally it was tough. I want to get my records out but am scared. Once I made the decision that am done, that’s when I stopped attending church/temple ordinances. I want to be baptized out of this church (I don’t even though if it’s a thing). I renounce all the religious practices I participated in primarily with the thought of wanting to reunite with my late father. The death of my dad made me become desperately hungry for anything that would me be with him again. He wasn’t a member of the church neither is the rest of my family. I am the only one that converted because I wanted to be with him so I made sure I get his proxy baptism done with the hope of him accepting the gospel on the other side of the veil. Years later I did his endowment and when I asked if I could proceed to do his sealing and possibly also get sealed to him, I was told that it’s impossible since they weren’t married (him & my mother). If there’s anyone that has successfully removed their records from the church, I’d be interested in knowing how that went for you. Again, thanks for sharing!!
As an active LDS Church member for many years I wore garments and participated in many endowment ceremonies. Interestingly, it wasn't until I removed the garments after leaving the church in 2019 that my relentless (horrible) nightmares finally went away!

Thank you for creating this video and helping to expose the Mormon cult. My wife and I left the Mormon cult in the last year and found a biblical Christian church, have been saved, and became true followers of Jesus. My wife and I were raised in the Mormon church and never really felt like things were right in that church. We are both sensitive to the Holy Spirit and God was always trying to tell us that the Mormon church is false. We now feel we are on the right path and have learned just how the Mormon church is full of lies and deceit and was founded on the imagination of a false prophet, pagan and occultist who was fascinated with all of the religions of the world. There is no doubt Joe Smith took the temple rituals directly from the Masons and the symbols from several other religions. He took ideas, teachings, books, and rituals directly from other religions. True followers of Christ will follow His teachings, which are only found in the Bible.
@larzuga1 Then why is the book of revelation Christ's message to John about future Christians only today. Christ told John that future Believers would serve Christ day and night in HIS temple "Rev. 7:15"And that they would all wear WHITE ROBES and garments and in that temple worship they would Wash their robes in Christ's blood. Rev. 7:10-15? How about Christ 2nd coming where he says he will come suddenly to his TEMPLE? Malachi 3:1" Why aren't Christian's doing what Christ told John must be going on today. Only LDS are following the Bible? Link UTube video titled (BOA ep 16)
Your sincere concern comes across in your videos, your presentation is caring and gentle, your points clear and concise, keep up the good work Sister... a Brother in the Lord -
thank you so much for posting this. being born and raised mormon I always felt something was missing. My wife and I were married in the temple but within a few years had become inactive. a few years ago our daughter invited us to a Christian church. it was so different I wasn't sure what to think but quickly came to love it. I recently watched a video on the freemasons and then seeing your video, I felt sick to my stomach at being so deceived. but I am thankful we found the truth and have been born again. thank you again for sharing!
Just came back from Smithfield Monday night. First time in Utah and I loved it, it was beautiful. My heart yearns for all of them to find the true Jesus. Very nice people but just deceived by Satan like I once was as a Roman Catholic and believer in New Age after that. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for setting me free
Jessie I love this video and want to say how powerful it is . My family and I have been members of the church for my whole life until the last 7 or 8 months . How we discovered the truth is through the last general conference of the church in April of this year 2020. Lots of things have been bothering us for many years but the April conference was the final icing on the cake that sealed the deal for us . I think this video could be even more powerful by the way , if you included the origins of Freemasonry and why it is occult . There is a group of Occult Freemasons , that link back to the Ancient Accepted Scottish right who have been responsible for corrupting original Freemasonry . The Occultist group I am referring to is called the ILLUMINATI ... perhaps you have heard of them , and maybe you were told that such a title or sect of power was nothing more than a fantasy . It would be of interest to you I think if you studied Adam Weishaupt , Aleister Crowley , and Anton Levey .... but more especially Adam Weishaupt . In 1776 Adam reestablished the ILLUMINATI and merged it into Freemasonry , ever since 1776 original Freemasonry was no longer the pure thing it was intended to be from the beginning . This means that when Joseph Smith and others became initiated , they were not only initiated into Freemasonic Occultism but ILLUMINATI Occultism ... which is why the Mormon Temple Endowment reflects so much of the Occult esoteric wisdom and the mysteries of the hidden wisdom . Becuase of magicians like Aleister Crowley .....portals were opened to access Demons who disguised themselves as angels of God and spoke to Crowley giving him commands , directions and other great secrets . Upon opening the portals to these demons and revealing the secret magic to the ILLUMINATI factions ....now ordinances and ceremonies reflect the secret signs , tokens and keywords that are believed to be powers used to call forth angels , etc . In the LDS temple endowment , more "enlightened" members believe that this (magic ) Endowment is giving them the keys to build Zion , which is prophesied to be built in the Latter Days before the Second coming . Also it is taught that if a person is faithful enough they can receive what is called obtaining their "second comforter" . The event of a second comforter experience is that Christ himself comes to a temple worthy individual once they have been enlightened enough by the mysteries of the Endowment . Such a person is promised that they can see him , touch the markings in his hands and feet and then ask him for a special gift . I know several Mormons who call themselves Zion seekers who believe it is their mission to become one of the 144,000 mentioned in the Book of Revelations. They particularly study the gift of Translation .....not translation of Scripture but the gift of Translation I am referring to is a gift that Christ gives to an exceptionally faithful Latter Day Saint . This gift is literally power over death and life ...meaning that the person who recieves it has power over their own life and death . It also gives them power over all elements ...such as air , earth , fire , water ....as translated beings are referred to as Seraphim in the book of Isaiah. The Seraphim have all these powers ...and it is believed amongst the Zion seekers that this right to become a Seraphim is part of the sealing power in the temple ....as the sealing power is much deeper than just your family ....it is all those who God may promise to such a righteous soul. This causes these kinds of members of the church to feel even more stalwart in deciphering the mysteries of the Endowment and receiving this empowerment from Christ , which they believe gives them the right to gather the elect from the four corners of the earth and prepare them and bring them to Zion . They have no idea that the Endowment they participate in is an ILLUMINATI corrupted Endowment through the Freemasonic influence that Joseph and others brought into the LDS spectrum after their initiation . I just don't think Joseph fully understood what he got involved with as he only rose to the 3rd degree . Most of my information comes from a 33rd degree Illuminati freemason , whose books I have been studying in amazement . I know of several members of the church who have claimed to me to have had divine manifestations in the temple from beings of power and light . Some have even told me that they have obtained their second comforter experience .....I tell you this becuase you may come across this stuff as well . I used to be someone who believed In all the things I have written here and after the lies were unveiled me and my family definitely felt cheated and betrayed and lied to ......we also have been angry over it becuase so many years of our life was wasted in the prison called the LDS church . Today we embrace no religion and find it significant to draw close to Jesus personally without any religion defining our path . If you would like access to my resources and access to my info you can definitely PM me on messenger , under either Jareth Brashear or Jareth Brashear Kaehler . I would love to see more and more videos tear down this mega corporation and the pure evil sham that it is .....I would also love to see many of my LGBTQ friends leave this evil behind as some of them are still programmed by its powerful emotional codependency. Thank you so much for doing all you are doing to expose the truth . Love and Light Jareth Brashear
It messes your head up to know you were serving the wrong master...God spoke to me and told me that He knew my true intentions and that I always was serving Him in my heart...I knew no different. I was 2 when put in the church. You just dont know until you wake up...thank God for freedom in Him!!!
wow jareth you really are vested so mason's at one point before the S'Rites perhaps had something? i would find it interesting if there was a power to lift the rot (so to speak) in the writings to leave only the truth , that would be a value
I finally found out that the Mormons were Freemasons just about a month ago and I've been upset ever since, cause my grandparents whom I loved dearly were Mormons and they did the temple sealings all the time, and my grandad was a bishop, so to say I've been devastated is an understatement. They joined in the late 70's to early 80's I think. Do you think they knew these awful things, cause they were great people and exceptional grandparents, and I know this is a year later so if you get this would you mind sharing your resources you mentioned above with me too? They have been trying to recruit me for years but I just never felt right about it, and that's even before I became a Christian. I'm just looking for answers, cause I have to know if they knew these things.
@@jessicaconner80 Hi Jessica , I seriously doubt that your grandparents knew these things . Given their generation and the timing when they grew up in the church , it's not likely that they knew any of the things I mentioned above . The Zion seekers are a whole new breed of people that come from our modern generation .....but they are also people who went against the original "grain" of what it means to be an average Mormon . If your an average Mormon it will be mostly ok to keep your mind and heart focused on what is called the "basics" in the church ....most people never ever seek the "deep knowledge " nor ever worry about the things that were promised by the early so called prophets of the LDS church. Most members , I would say a good 85 percent don't even know that receiving the "second comforter " is a promised right of the Endowment of knowledge and power in the temple . It is considered to be a great "secret" only spoken of by seekers of Zion in the church who believe that they can reveal themselves to others in the church they can trust. Unless your grandparents went exceptionally deep with the doctrines of the church they won't have come across these things ....but if they approached their membership how most do ...in a casual way then they likely knew nothing of this and were probably innocently involved thinking that living the churches moral code would simply bring them an eternal family unit in the next life and lots of blessings in this one .
@@pitelf3852 I've wondered that same thing and have concluded at this point that the teachings of the original Freemasons are so corrupted now that they don't even come close to representing what they used to be . The symbols they possess in regards to mathematical mysteries and laws of the universe and universes are still special ....but it would take a valiant mind to decipher their meanings and an open heart to God , without the false dogmas of religion and the secret societies getting in the way . Original initiates like "Pythagoras" probably came closest to possessing the ancient secrets that the Original freemasons may have possessed before the Illuminati factions corrupted the intentions behind the spiritual fabric of it all . If one wants to glean any truth at all from freemasonry , they would have to approach a deep study of it in an unbiased sense ....while looking beyond the Illuminati corruption and also possessing a very keen discernment between "made up truth " and what's really true .
The thing that amazes me. Is that nothing you have revealed in your videos has been responsible for my decision to leave the church. These things all bothered me all along. I was told that when I became educated and had studied enough. Became more active in the temple. I would see that it was the devil deceiving me. Well I am nearly 60 and have been in the process of leaving for 10 years. My wife is filing for divorce, finally after threatening it for a decade. Now anything that was keeping me has been terminated. There are half a dozen attorneys in our stake. Who have offered to screw me in court for free. Two of whom have been my close friends for 30 years. This was the straw that broke my heart and opened my eyes.
I'm so sorry to hear your story and what you're currently going through. I will be praying for you! Mormonism has deceived so many and my prayer is that you won't give up on God but will seek the true God through Biblical Christianity. The end of Mormonism does not have to lead to hopelessness and Atheism. I understand that me saying this while you are entering a potential divorce may be the last thing you want to hear. But your eternal soul matters. And so I will pray for you and will be here if you ever want to talk. Your life isn't over. You are precious to God and He wants you to be saved through Biblical Salvation. Sometimes when everything falls apart and seems hopeless, God is the only One Who can fill the void with His love, peace and hope. I am so sorry for your pain and your difficult journey. 🙏
Jesus said, "Follow Me." Jesus is the good Shepherd. Jesus will never let you down. John 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; 28 and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.

@@J G What you forgot - or do not seem to realize - Solomon build the Temple - He was NOT the High Priest The Priestly Clan of the Tribe of Judah continued the service and rituals - So King Solomon's apostasy is completely irrelevant in this context. And yes - if you do your research properly you will find that from the 4th degree upwards, virtually every degree in the Scottish Rite reflects a important period or event in the history of the Temple
@J G Friend - your quote is quite right and literal - But do you abandon your church if the builder becomes immoral ? Solomon was not the High Priest, and held no position in the priesthood - he had God's temple build according to the measurements God dictated (and that you find to this day in the ground plan of Rossylyn Cathedral, Chartres and virtually all European cathedrals - Must those churches congregations also abandon their churches - Some logic friend ?
No that's an absolute lie me up on a spot it's from satanic Freemasons the actual origin of smiths satanic craft is the 1700s by the satanic masons. Far far outside and way way way long after solomon or jesus or dadk ages. You lie as usual.
Thankyou Jessie, you just clarified that I did make the right move leaving the church, and getting baptised in a Christian church. It helps me to know that I'm not alone in this. Thankyou again, God bless you 💖.
He didn't imagine it, using that stone is called divination, which is witchcraft. He really saw all these things and that's what is so scary, that the devil really does mascaraed himself as an angel of light!
When I went to the temple for the first time in 1981, I asked the stake president about the similarities in the endowment and the Masons. He claimed that the Masons stole it all from joseph smith. What a crock! So glad I resigned last year! Keep up your great work, Jessie!
It's the direct opposite. Luciferian Satanist Smith took it all from Masons and luciferians and occultism and all his own Wicked imagination what and devilry galore.
Thanks for the great video, I grew up in the Mormon church, we were always taught that there were no images of the cross in the churches because we were supposed to focus on the resurrection, not the crucifixion. But never an explanation of using an inverted pentagram?
if you study the history of symbols, you will find that just because satanism RECENTLY hijacked a symbol, does not mean it did not have a righteous meaning initially. Anymore than say, gay marriage is the real version of marriage, its a counterfeit, and those who created it HIJACKED the true biblical teaching of marriage as found in Genesis.
Supposedly, the spires are phallic symbolism. Look up Luciferian and occult symbols. Why would church leaders advocate their flock take the experimental “vaccine” jab? Are they doctors or part of NWO?
I have been asked to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.... I said that I wasn't ready yet. The other day for the Baptism in February and said that I will when I get to know the Book of Mormon better. With this mew news I have stopped reading the Book of Mormon . Thank you for this new info. God bless you.
"I have been asked to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" This is standard mormon missionary practice, to rush people into baptism. They are highly pressured sales led people with targets and quotas to achieve. The missionaries themselves are manipulated and deceived as much as the people they are misleading. Missionaries are always being set baptism targets to aim for. They might as well be selling vacuum cleaners. Same sales techniques.
Glad you ha e decided to study thus out befire making that decision. I was a member for 40 years and attended the temple and have left the church when I found these things out. There is so much more information out there too. You can even check out my page if you have time as well. Take care!
I read the book of Mormon because of a friend had asked me to and i sead i would, so i did, just to see what the book had to say, but after i read it they wished i hadn't. it turns out the book of Mormon sounds close to Christian but IS IN OPPOSITION to the bible, and to the DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS, AND TO THE PEARL OF GREAT PRICE, They all contradict each other. However no one in the mormon religon could ever lie to me again, It turnes out after i started to refute what was being sead from there own DOCTRINE I was told by that person that had told me she knew it was true, and to read it, had never even read the book, A temple going mormon. How could you know any book is true if you haven't even read it? Now you got me started, and i did not stop all the teachings of the prophets all church history, teaching manuals, and many other books by there own prophets. I found it to be a mess, using each others statements to make there own point and misquoting there own books and previous prophets, a mixed up pile of mess. And the temple going lady that knows it is TRUE, hasent even read the first Book, the book of Mormon. If you know you're BIBLE well you should read the book of Mormon, it showes how DELUSIONAL Joseph Smith really was, the book even contradicts itSelf in itself. Crazy.
I had told the 2 Sisters about Galatians and 1st Corinthians how that I would be reading another Book that is not the truth to the Holy Bible and they said " where did I get that from and did my Pastor tell me to tell them them about those two books and different chapters. Thought I was going to lose my head from those passages. They went on to say the Holy Bible ihas holes in it and that's where the Book of Mormon fills in the holes to make the Holy Bible full. I even asked why the Book of Mormon was printed 2 or 3 times with fixes in the Book. They came up with another excuse.
The inverted pentagram also means mans head is pointed twards the earth not heaven, if you can imagine the star being the head, arms, and legs of man. This means materalism instead of spiritual things, which is why there are works in this religion.
Jennifer Flower wrong the pentagram is as above so below and if it’s pointed up meaning it means higher consciousness of spiritual mind and the pointed start pointing down is the materialistic mind idiots I learned this In masonry.
A connection between the "inverted pentagram" and Satan "is almost certainly a 19th century invention by Eliphas Levi," who was a "defrocked priest." He did not begin publishing references to this idea until 1854, a decade after the death of the Prophet Joseph Smith.
@@mrnirom5107 Yes, freemasonry seems to have started a good organization; only in the mid-1800's did it become involved with the illuminati. That's why many great individuals were masons in the beginning.
i just came across this video and i must say, bravo. I was raised in the church and never felt right with any of it despite going to the temple and doing the work. I eventually just stopped going all together and don't talk to anyone from church except for my mom. This confirms my suspicions as a kid about something being off about the whole thing,
Same with me being born into Roman Catholicism. Always felt something was off as a kid. The Lord Jesus Christ set me free 2 years ago and I’m now a born again follower of His. Praise the Lord!
Thank you for these videos! I just moved to Provo, without any real prior knowledge about Mormonism...this is some scary stuff...it's been near impossible to make friends here, weirdest place I've ever lived
Oh wow, Provo is Mormon central. There's a really great church not far from you called "Ridgeline" and I know the pastor and some members. If you're looking for a Biblical Christian community, that would be a good place to start. 😊
Mormons are not satanist. This woman is regurgitate all the anti Mormon literature she just read. Look into the history of symbolism and then watch “Meet the Mormons” it’s free on TH-cam. And then watch “Love Kennedy” on Amazon Prime. How can a person who “worships satan” talk non stop about how great Jesus is! Also, Mormons don’t drink or do drugs so if that is what you are into, you won’t make many friends. They always do things that are related to church. So it would be difficult to make friends if they are always do church activities. www.quora.com/Why-do-Latter-day-Saints-Mormons-have-pentagrams-and-the-all-seeing-eye-on-their-temples
@@ktrainbow9765 Except your God is not our God. God says he is not a man, he is a spirit and he's always been God. That's a different God than you worship.

Finding out that Joseph Smith and his family practiced black magic was the final thing that pushed me to resign from the church. I went to temple square last summer, for the first time since I left Mormonism, and I couldn't believe (with my new Christian eyes) the satanic symbolism that I found. I re-visited the Visitor's Center, where I (as a Mormon) would meditate by the huge Christos statue. I quickly discovered dozens of the inverted stars (satan's symbol) etched in the wood cabinetry along the window. I was terribly disturbed and came to a realization that this church truly worships Lucifer. If you google Luciferian philosophy, you will find Mormon doctrine 101. Seriously, the Mormons praise Eve for her decision to listen to Satan. They talk about this in the temple, as well. They also believe Satan's lie that they will become gods one day. Mormons believe the plan that Satan presented to Eve in the garden. Christisn have a whole different perspective of what happened in Genisis. Thanks for doing these videos. I sure appreciate them. PS..... Mormon apologists will say that the inverted star has only recently been adopted by satanists as their symbol. That argument doesn't work for the major remodel of the Visitor's Center or the museum on temple square that are full of witchcraft symbolism. They could have easily removed those symbols during construction. And what's up with the dozens and dozens of statues all over temple square? It's idolatry!
This lady thinks she is so smart. I have watched a number of her videos, and they are full of errors. She simple does not understand what she is talking about. For example in "inverted star" in meant to be "the Morning Star," which is a symbol of Christ. He is "the Bright Morning star (look it up if you don't believe me). The early Latter-day Saints even had a newspaper the called "The Morning and Evening Star." She will also say that Mornings believe something by quoting one or two leaders in the church. Mormons only have to believe what has been canonized in the scriptures, anything else is that "leaders" opinion. If you have questions about what members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe please ask them. Mormon missionaries are young and may not understand everything themselves, so they are not a fully proof source. I have been a active member for 48 years having read and taught from hundreds of books about the Church. This young lady is "twisting" the teachings of our church into a negative light. Jessie I invite you to look into what you are teaching a little more. The above example is not an over exaggeration of what you are doing the the LDS Churches beliefs, you simple know not what you are saying! You are also bring in your own world view and telling us Mormons what we believe. I sit here listing and having to "that's not true" over and over.
agreed. masonry is thinly veiled satanism and mormonism is thinly veiled masonry. that's why i don't think it's neccessary to get into the symbolism of it. what they admit to openly is bad enough. there is no hell, just 3 degrees of glory, no need for a saviour, because no hell, no basic sin nature, just mistakes you repent of, then go on to pursue godhood. when you die you will populate earths with all your wives and you will be a god to all those people on all those earths. they believe the first lie of satan, you will not surely die, you will become as god.
@@doctorandrose1 The "morning star" is a title given to Satan in his role as Lucifer. The term was derived from a Biblical passage which identifies a Babyloniangod named for that star as having fallen from the throne of heaven for his arrogance. This story was conflated with the story of the fall of Satan and 1/3 of the angels, especially because most pagan gods are considered aspects of Satan in Christianity. The "morning star" is also a nickname for the planet Venus, which was called Lucifer in Roman astronomy. Its low position in the sky (due to its proximity to the sun) likely gave rise to the myth of it having fallen from heaven. In ancient times, the planet was considered to be the god of the dawn who opened the gates of heaven for the sun to pass through. The morning star is bright today. Lucifer was once the bright morning star, but fell from the favour of God. by Lesath February 16, 2008
This is wikipedia's definition Lucifer (/ˈluːsɪfər/ LEW-si-fər; "light-bringer") was a Latin name for the planet Venus as the morning star in the ancient Roman era, and is often used for mythological and religious figures associated with the planet. Due to the unique movements and discontinuous appearances of Venus in the sky, mythology surrounding these figures often involved a fall from the heavens to earth or the underworld. Interpretations of a similar term in the Hebrew Bible, translated in the King James Version as "Lucifer", led to a Christian tradition of applying the name Lucifer and its associated stories of a fall from heaven to Satan. Most modern scholarship regards these interpretations as questionable, and translates the term in the relevant Bible passage (Isaiah 14:12) as "morning star" or "shining one" rather than as a proper name, "Lucifer".[1] As a name for the devil, the more common meaning in English, "Lucifer" is the rendering of the Hebrew word הֵילֵל in Isaiah(Isaiah 14:12) given in the King James Version of the Bible. The translators of this version took the word from the LatinVulgate,[2] which translated הֵילֵל by the Latin word lucifer (uncapitalized),[3][4] meaning "the morning star, the planet Venus", or, as an adjective, "light-bringing".[5] As a name for the morning star, "Lucifer" is a proper name and is capitalized in English. In Greco-Roman civilization the morning star was often personified and considered a god[6]and in some versions considered a son of Aurora (the Dawn).[7]
I was a member (processing out) and I had no idea about this but the symbols of suns/moons stars made me uncomfortable and uneasy. I really didn't know the stars were upsidedown and that there were satanic pentagrams and inverted stars. This makes me sick to my stomach. God help us and all who need the truth! We have to be patient with ourselves and others who still believe in Mormonism... its cult thinking and deep psychological abuse is profound and many can't see their way through it :( Thank you for your videos. I just happened upon this tonight. Leaving Mormonism is a hard thing. IT is filled with brainwashing, fear mongering, and so much abuse. It's painful on many levels but I am grateful for Jesus Christ and Love Him.
Ah Beverly.... you are wrong... it is not the same rituals. Any person who really does their homework would know it was only a few. But that is where Joseph Smith got the idea on HOW he was to present the endowment to the Saints. He needed a way to present it. And having been the Chaplain... he watched the rituals... and saw how when presented in same like manner that the Freemasons did.... the endowment could easily be taught and remembered. Thanks to the Freemasons for the enlightened method of teaching!!
@@itsmejessie And to you.... who seems to be really having some fun mocking the Lord's Church. I was told to teach you something I learned a long time ago concerning the Lord's doctrine and how it is taught. This lesson came from the Chief Apostle... Peter. This is the Apostle that received the direct REVELATION from the Father... concerning the Son. (By the way... they are not triune... they are separate and distinct individuals and are not made of the same essence.) The Father taught Peter that Jesus... was the Christ... and the Son of the living God. And immediately afterward told Peter... that upon this rock... Which Jessie... is the rock of REVELATION... he would build his church upon... and he said that gates of Hell could not prevail against it. Now think about that. As long as the Church was receiving REVELATION... they would know that Satan's doctrine could never be introduced into the Church. But if the Church was not receiving REVELATION... then guess what? The gates of Hell could prevail against it. And that holds true today. There is no other Church upon the planet earth that receives REVELATION from God like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. And neither you nor Satan... will prevail against it. Ah... but I digress. I was instructed to let you know how Peter taught that doctrine should be taught in the Church. And by the way Jessie... you can find this in what is called the Recognitions. "The teaching of all doctrine," says the Apostle Peter, "has a certain order, and there are some things which must be delivered first, others in the second place, and others in the third, and so all in their order; and if these things be delivered in their order, they become plain; but if they be brought forward out of order, they will seem to be spoken against reason." That is why he rebuked the youthful Clement for wanting to know everything ahead of time. Your teaching methods you are teaching are in direct contrast to what Peter taught. And in doing so... you are preventing God's children from hearing the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. And the day will come in the not to far distant future... that what you have been teaching... is not the correct order for teaching. And when you find out that this is the Lord's true Church upon the earth... You are going to feel so foolish and so sad for your part in leading people away. I said what I was told to say.
@@mrnirom5107 The Gates of Hell will not prevail against the BIBLE, which is the Word of God. That includes the lies and fallacies and false teachings of the LDS Church. Though the LDS doctrine is straight from Hell, it will never prevail against the true Word of God.
She's right at the end of her video that the cross is a very important symbol of Christian belief, but so is the oft painted scene of the risen Lord Jesus Christ emerging from his tomb after his resurrection. For early Christians the sign of the "Fish" was the symbol they often made to acknowledge each other as Christians, as followers of the Jesus Christ who fed thousands with a few fish and a few loaves of bread and the Messiah who told Peter he'd make him a fisher of men. Also the symbols of the Nativity are Christian symbols that are common among Christians including Latter-day Saints. That idea of Jesus emerging from his tomb as a resurrected being, an Easter symbol, is a symbol of Christ's defeat of Satan, his defeat of mortal death as the son of God, his redeeming defeat of sin. I believe that's the symbol LDS people more often look to as they relate to Jesus Christ than the cross where the enemies of Christ made him suffer.
You’d be so surprised how many Mormons still ignore the red flags after seeing all this truth. They truly need prayers and more Christians boldly and lovingly share the Biblical gospel with them.
But Jessie, the Freemasons claim to go way back to the Stone Masons Guild and also have roots with the Knights Templar too, which combined together in the Middle Ages. The official Freemason lodges didn't appear publicly until the early 1700s.
I was told by Chad Swans 32nd degree Mason from Dallas the prayers said in the mormon temple are verbatim to masonry. I pose the question: if masonry is so helpful to humanity, why is it kept secret.
@Free Mason Blood Sacrifice I wouldn't take any notice of Swanns. He's a con man. In Freemasonry we say a prayer at the start and end of the meeting and one of there is a Candidate for a Degree ceremony. Here's the one we use at the start. "Let us invoke the assistance of the Great Architect of the Universe in all our undertakings; may our labours, thus begun in order, be conducted in peace, and closed in harmony". Now, I don't know what prayers are said in a Mormon temple, but I'm pretty sure they aint that! You ask why Masonry is kept secret. The fact is...it isn't! Anti-Masons always claim it is... but then, they would, wouldn't they? Some very minor points....less than 0.1% are kept confidential. I can tell you why but it's a little long winded. If you want to know, ask me. Most Masonic Halls have open days where you can see for yourself a Lodge room and talk to Masons. You can ask them (or me) ANYTHING you like about it and I'd be glad to tell you what you want to know.
The realist my email is freemasonbloodysacrifices@gmail.com As far as Chad Swans is concerned I view him as a good husband, father, and creation of God. Is he perfect? Of course not. But I spoke to him and for the most part he is forthright and sincere. At times he came across a little defensive but I would have too had the tables been turned. I like Swans. Both the majestic birds and Chad. I just have some issues with masons that need to be ironed out or squared away.
Thanks for giving the devil his due Jessie. The LDS should do the same. Ingratitude is unbecoming of people who don such wholesome apparel on the Sabbath.
Do you know what the hand to face gestures mean? Or what the hand gestures mean? I can not find anyone who knows what all these gestures mean. Modern day gestures.
May God Keep On Blessing You Jessie!! Our Lord and Savior is Soooo Good ✝️🙏☝️🙌🌟💗!! I met 2 Mormon boys on their Mission 3 weeks ago and God has decided to put me in their path again next week to meet up so I can plant the seed and God Will sow. I Thank The Lord for you because now I am more educated than I was before about the Mormon Cult. My Dad was Mormon until he was 20 years old and I still have family that are Mormon.
When I openly challenged my mom in a conversation about this, she went on to say "I had a premonition that you were going to struggle and have difficulty in life." That hurt. I still love my family, but my understanding of God has been evolutionary for me the longer I have been away from the LDS church. The coffee pasta that Joseph Smith did was genius and "Inspired" as LDS members might say. The modern LDS church knowingly has swept a lot of the crazy times, stories, and truth of the development of the early church under the rug.
Thanks Jessie.....ur so well informed and knowledgeable after I left the church I too investigated the history of the church....thankfully I have found a Christian Church.....it's so sad that alot of ex mormons have not found a true Christian church
I just hope you read up on some history rather than the trust a TH-camr who only read anti Mormon literature with no history on religion in general www.quora.com/Why-do-Latter-day-Saints-Mormons-have-pentagrams-and-the-all-seeing-eye-on-their-temples
KT Rainbow thanks, I can relate to this TH-camr for the similarities I’ve noticed from cults and other mind control groups. I was formerly identified as a JW. The example link you shared to enlighten me of a history lesson, is probably a glimpse towards your future; a waste of precious life as a critical and free thinker.
@@freecardoso lol wow! But you'll waste your time listing to this person. Guess your a critical listener than a critical thinker. But hey, it's your precious time to waste. Just remember knowledge is power. If you wish to learn about a religion, you read their sacred texts, you don't get an ex taoist or ex Jew to give you the accurate information about that religion, you go to the source and read that. But since you are too lazy to do that, you keep listening to those with no real insight to what the Church of Jesus Christ believes and only approving if it aligns with your preconceived notions of what you think Mormons are and what they believe. This woman quotes the Salamander Letter. I have read the Bible, the quoran, that Book of Mormon, and the Catholic Bible, all of which have lead me to the conclusion that all religion has some truth, but the testimonies of Jesus Christ, in the Book of Mormon made my heart sing. Do you believe in Jesus Christ? If so, what is the harm in reading a book that could lead you closer to Christ? As you say, your time is precious, what will you do with your time?
@Narrow Path wow! Are you Christian? Do you believe that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior? If the answer you have are "yes" to both, you maybe a "coward" and an evil devil worshiper because ALL mainstream "Mormons" or members of the Church of JESUS CHRIST believe that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior and that is why we call ourselves "Christians." As for the 5 point star, here is some information on that subject. I know it's hard for you to look outside of your preconceived notions of a religion you only learned about by reading anti mormon literature or by your pastor or Priest, but have you actually considered READING The Book of Mormon? I mean, I've had my own doubts about Islam when we first went to war with Afghanistan and Iraq, but then I read the Koran and realized that the religion was a cult. What makes it a cult? Well, in the Koran, it states you should KILL anyone (child or not) who leaves the religion. I have NEVER found a chapter in the Book of Mormon or Doctrine and Covenants that requires anyone who wants to leave the religion to then be disposed of. In fact, the religions doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints places a lot of emphasize on freedom of choice. That Lucifer wants to take away freedom of choice. That's contradictory, am I right? Anyway, back to symbolism. Though the inverted star has been viewed as an evil omen by the world in more recent years, the inverted pointed stars found on LDS temples have special, spiritual significance. Particularly on the Nauvoo Temple. We learn from Sacred Walls that "The inverted star above [the sun bursting forth from the three cloud-veils], pointing to the sun, is the morning and evening star, the first and last star to appear in the sky at daybreak and dawn, a symbol of Christ (see Revelation 2:28; 22:16). It is literally the planet Venus, which reflects the light of the sun, just as Christ points the way to and reflects the light of the Father. "The stained-glass windows with the inverted pointed stars surrounded by the twelve stones also represent Christ as the central focus for all of Israel, just as the tabernacle of Moses, positioned at the center of the camp of Israel, surrounded by the tents to the twelve tribes on all sides, also signified the centrality of God (see Numbers 2:1-34)." Venus, or the "Morning Star," used to be commonly represented by the inverted star, and was associated with the coming of Jesus Christ or the downward flow of revelation. The Fair Mormon website adds: "In 1985 LDS Church Architect Emil B. Fetzer stated that the inverted stars on early LDS temples were not sinister but were “symbolic of Christ.” He said that when the LDS Church “uses the pentagram or sunstone in an admirable, wholesome and uplifting context, this does not preclude another organization’s using the same symbols in an evil context.” A subset of the inverted star is the five-pointed star with an elongated bottom ray. In Understanding Temple Symbols, author Jack Lyon explains the extra significance of this star variation. "During the construction of the Logan Utah Temple, a newspaper reported that the five-pointed star with an elongated bottom ray symbolized 'the Star of the Morning,' which is a title of the Lord (Deseret Evening News, August 20, 1880, 3; see Revelation 22:16). Again the elongated bottom ray pointing downward indicates that the Savior has descended from heaven to earth" (pg. 125). www.ldsliving.com/5-Types-of-Stars-You-ll-Find-on-LDS-Temples-The-Fascinating-Meaning-Behind-Them/s/86110/
@Narrow Path you really have no idea of what you speak of, and I find that sad. Why not spend your time reading other religious texts? Maybe you just might find that we aren't Satanic worshippers. Maybe you might even find some commonality in Christianity and "Mormons." Like that we both believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins and that we follow the old tithing law of the Old Testament and pay 10% of ALL of our earnings to the church (or to Jesus Christ's Church). How many Christians do you know pay a FULL tithe offering? And I don't want to hear excuses of "well I would if I could. I can barely pay my own bills to live on." But they then purchase 10 packs of cigarettes and 6 bottles of wine for the week and 25 lottery tickets. Or better yet, they spend $65+ on television!! That always bothered me. How are you saying you can't pay your tithing and yet turn around and pay almost $100 on cable TV? I'd rather pay an offering (like tithing) to God than to a false God called "TV." Perhaps you can explain that one to me. Why do "Christians" who do not pay tithing claim to not be satanic devil worshippers but refuse to tithe to God but give their money instead to liquor, tobacco, and cable?
I left the Mormon church and have become a born again Christian. I’ve done my own research as well and everything you have shared is the truth. Thank you for sharing. The Mormon church is a cult led by a demon spirit. When I first went through the temple ceremony, I felt sick to my stomach and confused. But I shrugged it off. As a result of that experience, I always hated going. I am so glad I am out now and have found the true Grace of Christ.
Were you able to get your records out of the church? I am scared of getting them out and I can’t have a peace of mind knowing that my records are still there. If you did, what was the process like? Thank you!!
Thank you for taking the time to share this. Very helpful as I’m just now learning what the LDS church believes and has written in the texts they adhere to. I always just thought Joseph Smith wrote these thing out of vain imagination. Until…. I began reading the Book of Mormon. Now, I am pretty strongly convinced that he really did have an encounter with an elohim (angel) and right in the first pages I can clearly identify who that particular elohim was (hint: he fell from Heaven like lightning). Also, the name “Nephi”…. IMMEDIATELY Holy Spirit called to mind Genesis 6 passages.
Yes, Satan disguises himself as an angel of light... and I truly believe that Joseph Smith lived under a stronghold of the enemy. Joseph also taught that we will become like God... who else said this in the Bible? The serpent in the garden!
i think mormonism is very interesting. the book of mormon is very interesting because it contains not one distinctive mormon belief. baptism, baptism for the dead, polytheism, polygamy, the prophet, etc.etc. none of it's there. yet you hear mormons testifying up a blue streak to its truthfulness. i guess it shows how demonically oppressed they are. either that or they're so blind stupid they don't even know what they're saying. we don't know where the book came from. i think his mother wrote a lot of it. his older brother alvin was supposed to be the prophet, but he died. but a prophet still came (joseph) and i think his mother had quite a lot to do with early church machinations.
Temple symbolism has bothered me for a long time; I am glad to have found more info on this, I am a Mormon that is becoming inactive. I have been a convert for 48 years and my social circle is primarily limited to members. Being in my 86th year there not much point in making a big deal publicly so I follow my conscious and spiritual promptings. I believe that the church has digressed during the almost 50 years that I have been associated with it. Heavenly Father does not penalize for honest mistakes, so I am not concerned about having my name removed and the church did provide a lot of support to me as far encouraging me to get my life straightened out. I fully support the doctrine of latter day revelation even though I have lost my faith in much of the writings that the church declares to be such.
if you're 86 i certainly won't preach to you. but i think you may agree with me, that it is only prudent to add moderation in all things. and i think you'll agree that most people earnestly pray seeking that personal inspiration and relationship with their god. and i think you will agree, at your age, an 86 year old needs a grand poo bah prophet to tell him about life, like a fish needs a bicycle.
@@longnamenocansayy I am not sure that most people pray seeking a personal relationship with their creator. Generally we have been indoctrinated that we pray to alleviate the consequences of our errors. Most people have not been taught that they are really a spiritual being in a material body to interact with the environment here on earth. From the time that we are born we are prodded to fill our minds with worldly ambition to succeed in this life with out a lot of regard for our spiritual life. Just my thoughts.
The first time I went through the temple, I thought "This is BS!" I kept my opinion to myself.. It's an "emporer with no clothes" type thing. Later, I read about Smith and realized what he did. This and numerous other things was an enlightening moment. I haven't believed any of it for years now.
Had I ever visited the temple, I would have been creeped the heck out! I've heard that many Mormons are super disturbed by the temple but they just don't know what to do or say so they keep it to themselves.
@@itsmejessie The temple sealed the deal for me that I had to get out, creepiest thing I had ever been through. I also think the young missionaries misrepresent the church in their lessons. I was shocked to learn the real beliefs of the church after I had joined. I am now back in the Methodist church where I belong.
She accomplishes two things: (a) casting doubt on much of the theology of Mormonism, and (b) casting doubt on her own understanding of Christianity, and revealing the weaknesses commonly found in the "born again" Bible thumpers in America. Joseph Smith took shots at the religions of the day partly because they were so amazingly vulnerable to that criticism. She's misleading people when she reveals some of her ignorance regarding "Mormonism."
Jessie, this is your spiritual gift of presenting investigative examinations of cleverly obscured falsehoods of the Joseph Smith & his false religion. Would like to see you take on the false religion of the Jehovah Witness & Seventh Day Adventists. Your presentation style is done with sincere concern & not scorn.
Wow... That was one hell of a black pill... I see Google put their stamp of approval on this vid about Freemasonry. Having studied a great deal of occultism over the last few years I know about all of these symbols and The Vigilant Citizen has a page dedicated to the Salt Lake Temple and the occult symbology crafted onto it. But even having a limited knowledge of these things did not prepare me for the rest of your message. I say again, how are so many people being deceived by this?
Thank you for doing these videos! I was born and raised in the Mormon church and did not know any of these things until June of last year. Most members do not know anything about the true history. I was married in the temple, thought it was so bizarre, but did everything that was expected of me. 20 years later my husband and three children are out of this cult! I’ve watched all of your videos and can attest that you are putting out truth! I’m no longer religious, but want to support you! And my “new name” was Lucy. Haha so silly. There’s a website that list all the names they use on which days and years. So anyone can know your name if they know the day/year you went through for the first time. Much love to you❤️ ❤️
Thank you for the support and for following my TH-cam journey. I appreciate your comment! Of course, by now, you know that I just can't stand to see exMormons leave the church and not find the real Jesus so... I will be praying for you! 🙂 That you will one day come to know how real God is and that your life would be transformed with the hope a life with Christ brings. 😊 God bless!
Pagirl 4ever ......I did not know this about a website with the ‘new names’. I thought that when they gave you and your spouse a new name, they were names of famous couples in the scriptures. Turns out that they are giving names that were never a couple together. This gets more confusing the farther down the rabbit hole I go.
@Grace Be Yes, the rabbit hole is so deep! I’m new to commenting, so I hope it’s ok to share a website? Fullerconsideration.com under temple name oracle.
it used to be the husband was given the wife's new name and he would call her forth on the morning of the first resurrection. if she wasn't good, he just wouldn't call her. has that been changed?
I’ve been sharing many of your videos to my Mormon “ friends” Just this last Sunday after the general conference I got the first “ Rise” from one of these ladies.. saying my behavior was disrespectful and unacceptable, When church history & the holy Bible is considered Anti-Mormon you know something is wrong, What’s disrespectful is how they lure people in with the name of Jesus Christ, Yes many are deceived however when the refuse the truth and “ trust” their feelings over facts you know it is the occult spirit that they feel.. She couldn’t or wouldn’t answer a single question I asked about her beliefs, I’ve come to realize they Are very Worldly following the ways of the world focus on money and wanting the world to love them, I continue to pray for them, It’s upsetting to hear /see them saying how much they love God the Father & Jesus Christ, but ignore the Facts that they are worshiping a different god & Jesus, let’s not forget they call Lucifer their brother.. Ironically the woman who was upset, the same day changed her profile picture of her and her daughter dressed up as Witches and sharing Memes with New Age teachings of Self Love, Self Discovery, Evolving and it being magical.. I try to warn her about witchcraft & the Occult because I was once involved in it seeking for healing and I can say being raised and surrounded by the LDS led me to Occult practices, The baptism & baptism for the dead Does not Save Have you Heard what Lori Daybell said about Her time in the Temple seeing spirits and communing with Angel Moroni? Then she got led into even more Occult New Age Beliefs thinking she was doing gods work by having demons killed that were her husband & her children 😢.. This is Soo horrible 😔
praise the lord you're out of the mormon church. i know every breath of air since you've been out is like a cool breath of freedom. it is a difficult thing to quit and not throw the baby out with the bath water. that's because mormonism mixes up good and bad and so many times people reject it all. i was one of the lucky ones. i became a christian before the "ink was dry on my travelling papers".
Firstly, I wanted to say that it's completely obvious that you've done a lot of work behind the scenes to produce your videos, it's very much appreciated. Prior to this I was not aware that other occult rituals have the purpose of helping the candidate/initiate attain godhood, I was only aware of it within Mormonism. From what I understand the Book of Mormon does not teach such "exaltation" or plurality of gods. My apologies if this was not your intention, but this video now has me wondering if the King Follett Discourse was in reality an attempt to bridge some of this massive theological gap being passed off as "divine revelation". I have recently seen some (I think a few years old) videos put out by the LDS church encouraging their members to come unto Christ. May your videos help people do exactly that - but the real Jesus Christ of course!
The LDS church is emphasizing Jesus Christ a lot more in recent years, to try to hang on to members and also hoping that other churches will accept them as Christian.
@John Burns, The Bible mentions the plurality of gods. Psalms 82:6. Are you claiming that the Bible LIED about the "plurality of gods"? If you really believe that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a false Church, I invite you to refute a syllogism titled CHRIST'S TEACHINGS DEBUNK ANTI MORMONISM. Surely if you have proof, that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a false church, you would not hesitate to take advantage of the opportunity, to prove your claim, by using your profound knowledge of the Bible, to refute said logical argument. Rejecting or ignoring my invitation would prove to all our readers, that you don't really believe that which you preach.
The Book of Mormon doesn't teach those things because Joseph Smith published it in 1830, when most of his doctrinal background came from his local Protestant churches. It was later in his life, after he had studied some unorthodox philosophies, that he came up with the exaltation and plurality of gods concepts. One particular source for him was Emmanuel Swedenborg. craigwmiller.tripod.com/interest.htm
@@randyjordan5521 says who? Please POST PROOF that Joseph Smith "later in his life studied some unorthodox philosophes like exaltation and the plurality of gods"? No proof = lies. A link proves nothing. If I post a link that claims that God does not exist, is that proof that God doesn't exist? The only way to prove that Joseph Smith "later in life studied some unorthodox philosophes like exaltation and the plurality of gods" is IF he himself said that.
Like I’ve said before - you should write a book compiled with all these things so its easier for us when missionaries knock on our door. Make it a reference guide and include what you said in your video about how to witness to missionaries - very helpful.
If you read the Bible and then the first page of the Book of Mormon, you would know that the Book of Mormon is false. The Bible states that the first siege of Jerusalem took place under King Jehoiachin in 597/598 BC. II Kings 24:12 And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign. Then Zedekiah became king. 2 Kings 24:18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah. According to the Book of Mormon, Lehi's warnings to Jerusalem happened in the first year of Zedekiah's reign, after the first deportation of king Jehoiachin.. Jerusalem had already been destroyed. 1 Nephi 1:4 For it came to pass in the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, (my father, Lehi, having dwelt at Jerusalem in all his days); and in that same year there came many prophets, prophesying unto the people that they must repent, or the great city Jerusalem must be destroyed. ********** Also, in I Nephi 1:2, the Jews are speaking and writing in the language of Egypt??? The author of the Book of Mormon evidently didn't realize that Jews would not speak or write in the language of Egypt, a nation that enslaved them and that the Jews despised. Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians. - 1 Nephi 1:2 For it were not possible that our father, Lehi, could have remembered all these things, to have taught them to his children, except it were for the help of these plates; for he having been taught in the language of the Egyptians therefore he could read these engravings, and teach them to his children, that thereby they could teach them to their children, and so fulfilling the commandments of God, even down to this present time. - Mosiah 1:4 And now, behold, we have written this record according to our knowledge, in the characters which are called among us the reformed Egyptian, being handed down and altered by us, according to our manner of speech. - Mormon 9:32 It's no wonder that Mormons are laughed at. Such a sad story. www.mormonhandbook.com/home/absurdities-in-the-book-of-mormon.html www.mormonhandbook.com/home/anachronisms.html
Check out the CES letter. Has sooo many references. It’s free online. Also make sure to prioritize that the missionaries hear the true gospel of Christ. If the rug just gets pulled out from under them with nowhere to go, they will become bitter, angry atheists.
Religion, its like going to a bike park and someone at the gate tries telling you that you have to put training wheels on your bike, and you can only ride on specific routes because they have a book that someone gave them that claims these are the rules. But the rules are random and conflict each other. And the people that don't believe it are free to ride on any trail they wish and without the training wheels hindering them or holding them back. And you're told that after you're done riding, if you followed the rules you'll get a prize that the people who didn't follow the rules won't get. But you are told you only get the prize once you leave, so no one there will ever know if you really got the prize or not.
Thank you 🙏 so much for educating us! My best friend is Mormon, and she’s not an ignorant lady. Once the brainwashing is done, there’s no convincing them otherwise. I pray for her all the time.😢❤❤❤
A woman was sitting in an abortion clinic waiting room, with her 2yr old daughter on her lap. She was waiting on the doctor who came out and walked towards her. He asked her if she was ready, and she nodded yes. He reached down and took her 2yr old daughter from her lap turned, and started walking away. The woman stood up reaching for her daughter, distressed, asking the doctor what he was doing?! He turned back to look at her, and answered; What difference does it make which one I kill?
Didn't Joseph claim to be attacked 3 times with the plates? Reminds me of the Mason character hiram abiff being attacked 3 times. Also the symbol of gold is very significant to alchamy witch freemasons also have aspects of. Gold being perfection and the object of attainment
Exodus 21:20-21“And if a man beats his male or female servant with a rod, so that he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished. Notwithstanding, if he remains alive a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his property.
Not necessarily trying to defend anything but the 5 pointed star represented Christ and it was above windows and doors .. during the summer, the star point up, during the winter the star pointed down . Look it up. The symbol of the upside down pentagram was not tied to the occult until fairly recent history.
As an atheist my best bet is that Joseph Smith confected a way to have many wives in a world where this was non-existant & not permitted. He is america's firrst Playboy & original ganster(if u ever hear that expression)
@WalkiTalkie - Friend are you not aware that quite a few other churches allow the Old Testamentical practice of polygamy ??. Latter day churches does not practice it due to federal and other modern legislation but as an ordained cleric I can not find a single text in scripture that forbids it. Here we as a community are putting on our modernists, liberal spectacles to interpret Biblical Script and voice social condemnation the bible never did. Read and search your Bible for yourself.
Hardly the first, but yes, very similar to more recent cult leaders who demanded sex with multiple women and young girls based on the will of God. Suuuuuper convenient.
Hi thank you for your videos. Just something for you to research: the whole concept of sacred groves or "Garden of gods" for worship is originally a Babylonian, neo-Sumerian, and pagan concept
Jessie, what I’m finding is that the general public, as well as, LDS have no idea that Freemasonry is evil. We need in include info about the truth of Masory in our discussion with Mormons.
@@TheRealist2022 Freemasonry, Eastern Star, and other similar "secret" organizations appear to be harmless fellowship gatherings. Many of them appear to promote belief in God. However, upon closer examination, we find that the only belief requirement is not that one must believe in the True and Living God, but rather, that one must believe in the existence of a “Supreme Being”, which includes the “gods” of Islam, Hinduism, or any other world religion. The unbiblical and anti-Christian beliefs and practices of this organization are partially hidden beneath an outward appearance of a supposed compatibility with the Christian faith. Salvation from Sin: The Bible’s View: Jesus became the sinner’s sacrifice before God when He shed His blood and died as the propitiation (payment) for the sins of all those who would ever believe (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 5:8, John 3:16). Mason’s View: The very process of joining the Lodge requires Christians to ignore the exclusivity of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. According to Freemasonry, a person will be saved and go to heaven as a result of his good works and personal self-improvement. The View of the Bible: The Bible’s View: The supernatural and plenary inspiration of the Scriptures-that they are inerrant and that their teachings and authority are absolute, supreme, and final. The Bible is the Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16, 1 Thessalonians 2:13). Mason’s View: The Bible is only one of several “Volume(s) of Sacred Law,” all of which are deemed to be equally important in Freemasonry. The Bible is an important book, only as far as those members who claim to be Christians are concerned, just as the Koran is important to Muslims. The Bible is not considered to be the exclusive Word of God, nor is it considered to be God’s sole revelation of himself to humankind; but only one of many religious sourcebooks. It is a good guide for morality. The Bible is used primarily as a symbol of God’s will, which can also be captured in other sacred texts, like the Koran or Rig Vedas. The Doctrine of God: The Bible’s View: There is one God. The various names of God refer to the God of Israel and reveal certain attributes of God. To worship other gods or to call upon other deities is idolatry (Exodus 20:3). Paul spoke of idolatry as a heinous sin (1 Corinthians 10:14) and John said that idolaters will perish in hell (Revelation 21:8). Mason’s View: All members must believe in a deity. Different religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam, etc.) acknowledge the same God, only call Him different names. Freemasonry invites people of all faiths, even if they use different names for the ‘Nameless One of a hundred names,’ they are yet praying to the one God and Father of all. The Doctrine of Jesus and the Trinity: The Bible’s View: Jesus was God in human form (Matthew 1:18-24, John 1:1). Jesus is the second person of the trinity (Matthew 28:19, Mark 1:9-11). While on earth, He was fully human (Mark 4:38, Matthew 4:2) and fully divine (John 20:28, John 1:1-2, Acts 4:10-12). Christians should pray in Jesus’ name and proclaim Him before others, regardless of offense to non-Christians (John 14:13-14, 1 John 2:23, Acts 4:18-20). Mason’s View: There is no exclusivity in Jesus Christ or the Triune God who is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; therefore there is no doctrine of the deity of Jesus Christ. It is deemed to be un-Masonic to invoke the name of Jesus when praying, or mention His name in the Lodge. Suggesting that Jesus is the only way to God contradicts the principle of tolerance. The name of Jesus has been omitted from biblical verses that are used in Masonic rituals. Jesus is on the same level as other religious leaders. Human Nature and Sin: The Bible’s View: All humans are born with a sinful nature, are totally depraved, and need a Savior from sin (Romans 3:23, Romans 5:12, Psalm 51:5, Ephesians 2:1). The Bible denies that because of the Fall, humanity has within itself the capacity for moral perfection (1 John 1:8-10, Romans 1:18-25). Mason’s View: Through symbols and emblems, Masons teach that man is not sinful, just “rude and imperfect by nature”. Human beings are able to improve their character and behavior in various ways, including acts of charity, moral living, and voluntary performance of civic duty. Humanity possesses the ability of moving from imperfection toward total perfection. Moral and spiritual perfection lies within men and women. When a Christian takes the oath of Freemasonry, he is swearing to the following doctrines that God has pronounced false and sinful: 1. That salvation can be gained by man’s good works. 2. That Jesus is just one of many equally revered prophets. 3. That they will remain silent in the Lodge and not talk of Christ. 4. That they are approaching the Lodge in spiritual darkness and ignorance, when the Bible says Christians are already in the light, children of the light, and are indwelt by the Light of the World-Jesus Christ. 5. By demanding that Christians take the Masonic oath, Masonry leads Christians into blasphemy and taking the name of the Lord in vain. 6. Masonry teaches that its G.A.O.T.U. [Great Architect of the Universe], whom Masonry believes is the true God of the universe, is representative of all gods in all religions. 7. Masonry makes Christians take a universalist approach in their prayers, demanding a “generic” name be used so as not to offend non-believers who are Masonic “brothers”. 8. By swearing the Masonic oath and participating in the doctrines of the Lodge, Christians are perpetuating a false gospel to other Lodge members, who look only to Masonry’s plan of salvation to get to heaven. By their very membership in such a syncretistic type organization, they have severely compromised their witnessing as Christians. 9. By taking the Masonic obligation, the Christian is agreeing to allow the pollution of his mind, spirit, and body by those who serve false gods and believe false doctrines. As you can see, Masonry denies and contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture on numerous issues. Masonry also requires people to engage in activities which the Bible condemns. As a result, a Christian should not be a member of any secret society or organization that has any connection with Freemasonry www.gotquestions.org/free-masonry.html
@@fayelewis5476 Good morning Faye. Thank you for your very thorough response. I intend to correct a number of inaccuracies that you have made and which have led you come to the conclusions that you have. I'll copy and paste the sections of your post that are inaccurate and then counter them. "Freemasonry, Eastern Star, and other similar "secret" organizations ". Freemasonry is by no means a secret organisation. People often use this phrase in a pejorative manner. We are extremely open. This is illustrated by websites we have, jewellery we wear, community work we do, and of of course Masonic buildings are largely open the public. A fine example of which is the HQ of the worlds oldest Grand Lodge, The United Grand Lodge of England. This is a huge building in London, England just behind Covent Garden, with the name plastered all over it. It is open to the public and even runs free tours of the building, several times a day, most days of the year for EVERYONE.. not just Masons! Anyone can visit our shop and buy ritual books, regalia, publications, jewellery. Nobody in the shop checks that you're a Mason.. indeed many ladies visit the shop too, so to call us a secret organisation just untrue. "Many of them appear to promote a belief in God" This is also untrue. We do not promote a belief in God, by whatever name he is called. It is a requirement to believe in one, but that's as far as it goes. Freemasonry is not a religious society, in that no religious activity or promotion of belief happens at a Lodge meeting. It has about as much to do with religion as membership of your local council! "The unbiblical and anti-Christian beliefs and practices of this organization are partially hidden beneath an outward appearance of a supposed compatibility with the Christian faith". As it is believed that Regular Freemasonry (as opposed to Irregular Freemasonry, which does exist and is anathema to us) traces it's roots from England/Scotland from the middle ages and those that were present then were all Christian. They lived their lives with a morality, stemming from Christian Values and valued the Holy Bible Greatly. Hence at ALL Masonic meetings, the Holy Bible MUST be opened. The holy book of all others present must be too. For example, if any Muslim Mason is present, the Koran must be open too. Freemasonry has "three great lights" in it.... the square and the compasses are two of them. Know what the other is? Correct! This being the case, to call us "anti-blblical" is also a nonsense. Of course, you are looking at Freemasonry from a Christian point of view. You feel it is important to promote your religion and that is absolutely fine. But where religion is irrelevant, your promotion of it is also irrelevant. In the promotion of ones religion, yes it is vitally important to dismiss the others and promote ones own... but as Freemasonry is not a religious organisation, the religion of the members is also unimportant. You think it is anti-Christian that we do not promote Christianity. But why should we promote this subject, when we have nothing to do with it? Do four men get on their knees and praise god before every hole they play on a golf course? No, of course they don't. Do you call THEM anti-christian? No, of course you don't. Why is that? They are carrying out an activity which has nothing to do wit praising god. The same is true of Freemasonry, so why do you complain about us? Here's a great example of why Freemasonry has nothing to do with religion. I have been a member of Freemasonry for over 20 years and am a Grand Officer in the United Grand Lodge of England. I believe that there is some sort of entity which created the universe. However, I do not believe in organised religion. I just don't buy it. I was raised Christian, but from the age of 14, realised that all religion, to me, makes no sense at all. And yet, Freemasonry accepts me for membership.... if we were a religious organisation, surely I wouldn't be accepted? "Anti-Christian beliefs and practices of the organisation". I know of no practices or beliefs of Freemasonry in Freemasonry which are anti-Christian. Perhaps you cold tell me what these are, because I do not know of any. At this point, the person I am speaking to usually comes back with "you're not high enough to know". My answer is normally, "if I'm not high enough, how are YOU supposed to be"? but in any case, I am a 33rd Degree Freemason and would say that yes, I AM "high enough". The rest of the post you made compares and contrasts the "differences" between the Bibles view and the Masons view. As we are no longer a Christian organisation, these comparisons are largely irrelevant. For example, how would a Muslim Mason, a Jewish Mason, a Buddhist Mason, or a Sikh Mason view your post? You see, rather than create division in men, we create unity. Rather than excluding men based on their beliefs, we specify only one.. that there is a being responsible for creating the universe. We leave it up to the individual to decide the rest. I have met and dined with Masons from all over the world. A Masonic meeting is the ONLY place in the WORLD where men who are traditional enemies meet as friends. I've been with Sunni and Shia, Protestant and Catholic and Arab and Jew. All meet as friends, free from the religion and politics that cause so much division in the world. Those two subjects (which are forbidden from being discussed in a Lodge meeting...further proof that we are not a religious organisation) are responsible for all the wars, hunger, strife and suffering that the human race has ever encountered. To reiterate, you seem to be saying that as Masons we reject the idea of Jesus Christ. That is not true.. we just don't promote him. why would we promote him, if our organisation has nothing to do wit him? I don't go on and on about building model aeroplanes every day...does that mean that I reject it? Hardly!
@@jlewis8145 No, I don't. I don't even know if there is life after death. I think, perhaps, it's just wishful thinking because humans cannot deal with the concept of nothingness.
Nothing screams occult like telling your world-wide membership to love one another, live upright lives of integrity and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.
It is occult. Joseph Smith was contacting the dead, (Peter, James, John, Elijah), a money digger, scrying, translating a book by sticking his head in a hat and staring at a seer stone, masonry, etc.. Dr. Reed Durham, former president of the Mormon History Association, and Professor of Religion at the University of Utah, in a 1974 lecture revealed that at the time of his death Joseph Smith was wearing what was formerly thought to have been a "Masonic jewel" was actually a "Jupiter talisman." This proves that Joseph Smith was engaged in occult practices until the end of his life in 1844.8 A talisman is an object engraved with astrological signs believed to have possessed power to avert evil and bring good luck. Such pieces are clearly identified with occult magic. This lecture, although true, brought the wrath of then President Spencer W. Kimball down upon Dr. Durham. The talisman is currently kept in the LDS Archives. Joseph Smith forgot to put on his sacred underwear the day he died. Satan is allowed in the LDS temples. When Lucifer appears in the Mormon temple ceremony he is wearing an apron. When Adam asks him about it Lucifer boldly replies: “It is an emblem of my power and Priesthoods” (25:15). So, there is no ambiguity here-the apron has nothing to do with God; it is an emblem of Satan’s power and priesthoods. A few minutes later, when they hear God coming, Lucifer tells Adam and Eve to make themselves aprons and hide (25:45). Adam replies, “Come, let us hide,” and at that point in the ceremony everyone is told to put on their aprons. And they do. So, for the rest of the ritual, on top of their temple undergarments with the masonic-type markings, and on top of their white temple clothes, temple patrons wear a dark green apron-in obedience to Lucifer and symbolizing his power and priesthoods. This stands in stark contrast to what happens in the Bible: God removes the fig-leaf coverings that Adam and Eve make and replaces them with animal skins He provides. This foreshadows and represents the covering for sins provided by Jesus when he was slain on the cross as the Lamb of God (see John 1:29; Hebrews 9:22). Mormons themselves hold in high honor a married man who got a 16 year old girl pregnant and then married her, married 15 women in one year alone, married two sets of sisters, two sets of a mother and her daughter, eleven women who were already married to other men and when the 12th woman rejected his advances and she and her husband printed out the truth of what was going on, Joseph Smith destroyed the printing press and the building. Latter Day Saints call that a life of integrity and loving one another and following the teachings of Christ.
@@fayelewis5476 the apron is green. why is green a satanic color. it comes from nature, as when the satanists saw how copper will get a green patina. so copper is self corrupting, and green becomes the color of corruption. other reasons too. but it is of interest that the apron is green, and the apron the temple worker wears is covered with masonic symbols. hi faye, i'm always so glad to see your comments! by the way you may not know what the masonic jewels are. all the tools of a masonry are used in freemasonry but with symbolic applications. thus the trowel is used to spread the felicity liberally that exists between brothers. square and compass trowel, 24 inch gauge, etc. are all the jewels of fremasonry.
Guess you don’t know much about the occult.. it’s very love bombing and positive “ energy “ they talk a lot about forgiveness work and healing they want to Love EVERYTHING plus they think that they are all gods & goddesses
Not all stars are pentagrams. It does have a star but not a pentagram. Mormonism is fraud with major links to the occult, but it isn’t Satanic. Unless you define Satanism very, very broadly, to include all pagan or magical beliefs. Which I don’t think would be fair.
Symptoms is a touchy matter. I tend to leave it's meaning to those that use that particular symbol. The Jains in India are probably the most pacifist I know, going to extreme lengths so as not to harm an ant or mosquito, yet you find the swastikas in their teachings, as well as in Buddhism. Another of the world's peaceful religions. We all know too well what it happened when the Nazi's inverted it and used it as their symbol. I fully agree with you however that Mormon and Masonic symbols are pretty much one and the same. As for the cross, well, some see that as a symbol of the crucifixion, not Christ. As always, thanks for your views!
Simply put, a cross showing Christ still on it is a symbol of the crucifixion of Christ, such as used within Catholicism, while a plain cross (obviously upright) is symbolic of Christ's resurrection and therefore a symbol fit for Christianity in its truest sense. The cross, like any symbol, isn't inherently idolatrous unless one begins to attribute power or worship to the symbol instead of that which the symbol was meant only to represent, which in this case is Christ's sacrifice in order that we may obtain salvation both with and through Him. One concrete example of using the cross in an idolatrous sense would be wearing it around the neck as a form of protection, as if the object itself holds some innate power, whereas wearing it as a reminder of one's faith, or as a display to others regarding where one stands in a spiritual sense, is an acceptable usage.
As to her statement of the cross. There will be many that will get upset with me. Two things, #1: The term (wording) of the cross was added in the bible by Christian scribes. in the original and current Hebrew text and from the Greek the term (word) that was used was stake, pole or post (G4716). #2: When one digs, the symbol of the cross was used to symbolize Tamuz (the supposed son of Nimrod who became the sun god) and was worshiped as the son of god. In fact the Egyptians also the symbol of the cross in their form of the Ankh.
@@Raze120 The Lord Jesus Christ was put to death on a cross designed by pagans to torture and kill. He transformed the cross into a symbol of the triumph of God's love, by His faithfulness and mercy in dying for us to save us from death. He rose from the dead, and the cross became the sign of that triumph. God turned a shape into a sign of Jesus' victory.
Totally off topic but you remind me.of the 90s! Seem like a girl I would have been friends with!!😊 im so glad Jesus unites us. Its nice to see "NICE GIRLS" Alot of girls these days just looking at them and listening to them I get unclean vibes. There's something special and shiny about believers united through Jesus that just keeps me in awe and thanks.😊 God bless! May the Lord come quickly!! Maranatha!🙏✝️
When you take your oath, you take your hand across your throat to indicate if broke then you understand the penalty is death, hence the knife slitting throat while swearing allegiance to the rite. Also the secret handshakes can communicate more than just hierarchy and rank and from which lodge, i hope i don't get found out! Lol
remember the scene in godfather 3. a man is found hanging by a cable tow under a bridge where the tide regularly ebbs and flows. and in the movie some money can be seen falling out of the man's pockets gone blowing in the wind. the neat thing about the movie godfather 3 is that it's a cinematic representation of events that were occurring at that time. they really really really really found a man hanging by a cable tow under a bridge where the tide regularly ebbs and flows. now you will say p2. it was p2. it was rome's p2. i say, it still happened and it was still masonic. but it is somewhat irrelevant. what is relevant you ask? where is your heart is what matters. where is your heart? where is your heart before the one true god? is your heart right before the one true god. the christian god is the god of all life. you tell me your heart is right before god and you take blood oaths?
I had no idea about this crap. I grew up in a Mormon family, tried to convert in my 20s. And every time I went to church, I dreaded what malarkey I would hear each time I encountered these groups. I decided to not join and ever since, I've been stalked. They really are trying to take over. Character assassinations are a very real thing for them. If family were so important to them then why attack a whole family because the matriarch or patriarch of the family decided not to follow YOU!? laughable.This is the equivalent to Hitler and his regime. If you don't fit their mold, you dont belong in this world. Obviously they cant round you up but they can sure drive you insane and take any confidence you had.
This video is so wonderful and well researched! Love your channel Jessie. I'm doing research on this very topic right now and this has been super helpful. "Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ." Jude 3-4 Joseph Smith brought in these destructive heresies to the church, tainting the love and grace of our Lord with witchcraft. My heart hurts.
@@itsmejessie I would love that!! Thanks for your support as well! 😄 I’ve got two videos coming, it’s one topic in two parts. I’m doing the first part on the church approving of Freemasonry and Joseph’s activity as a Mason. The next part is addressing the rites, grips, tokens, etc. that are kept secret. Praying for you friend.
@@jamesrebuck sounds like some great topics to cover! Very important. Can't wait to watch! 🙂 Praying for you as well. I'll get in touch soon regarding a topic we may want to try to tackle together one day. Let me know if you have any good ideas! I literally have 94 tabs open in my phone's internet on LDS topics I still want to cover! 🤪 Lol! Lots of options for sure.
You are well researched Jessica, I was going to recommend the Book by Fawn Brody McKay no man knows my history,on my Journey out of Mormonism this was the first book I read,I went to the library in Phoenix and this book was the first one I pulled from the shelve! If every mormon had the opportunity to read this they wouldn't stay in the mormon church. Did you know that Fawn Brody McKay was the niece of the Mormon prophet David o Mckay,she found her way out of the mormon church too👏🌞
Jessie, I don’t know what to say to LDS folk when I have told them about these symbols, etc.....and they counter me with; “Oh, Satan takes what is holy and counterfeits it. These symbols on our Temples were originally used by God first.” What proof can I use when they say this to me? I don’t know who used what first! But I know that the ONLY way that I have seen pentagrams, etc. used, is for evil. I don’t have a comeback response when they say this to me.
Symbology is not an easy subject to discuss with Mormons. I've heard the trite argument regarding the Cross: "Well if your mother was killed by an ax, would you wear the ax pendant around your neck?" The problem with this argument is that Christ had the victory on the Cross which paved the way for his resurrection and ascension. While accomplishing what he was specifically sent for. My "mother" did not. Mormons see the Cross as a sign of defeat/death. This assertion severely contradicts what the NT teaches. Satan was also cast out of heaven when Christ died on the Cross; hence Jesus the Victor. So I fail to see how the Cross resembles defeat/death if Jesus achieved his sole purpose. All this can be researched in the Bible.
@@prayingpatriot8018 Very intriguing claim that I've never heard before regarding Satan being cast out of Heaven at the time Christ died on the cross. Isaiah 14 discusses Lucifer being cast out of Heaven, as does the Book of Revelation, but they indicate it happened before the creation of the World. Also, how could the Devil tempt Adam and Eve in the Garden, if he was still in Heaven? If you could explain for me, that would be great, cheers mate!
@@goingtothetop55 Satan originally was cast out (Luke 10:18). Many scholars believed he lost access to the Father at some point in time of the death of Christ on the Cross. Solely because God cannot allow sin into Heaven (Isiah 6). This is what I meant to imply. Later, only to be bound in the abyss for 1,000 years (Rev. 20:10). In Job 1, speaks of Satan standing before God, to give his account, later thru the verses states Satan's powers were severely limited. Here are some other facts to note: 1) Satan does not have open access to God's presence. He is summoned by God. 2) The visits are temporary. His time before God's throne is limited. 3) In no way is the purity of heaven tainted by the brief, God-ordained presence of a sinful being, "quarantined," as it were, by God's regulatory power. And, 4) Satan's access is only granted prior to the final judgment. After the judgment, God creates a new heaven and new earth (Revelation 21:1), wipes away all tears from our eyes (verse 4), reveals the New Jerusalem (verse 10), and promises the complete absence of sin (verse 27).
@@NaomiSiemens really, do you still believe that they walked across the Atlantic in barrels, if so I have some stave tanks you can walk in on my pond and you can show me how this would work, and that is just one of about 145 changes in your ancient text, mean while the Bible is still used to discover ancient cities and civilizations, so who is more accurate now? Look even if you don't believe what the Calvinist teach look at your new testament, the Churches of Christ will study with you, because most of the things that you hold dear are held dear in your religion are held dear in the Churches of Christ, yes baptism is important.
I did a study on the "Rider Waite Tarot Deck." Arthur Edward Waite directed the artist Pamela Colman Smith, on the imagery of the cards. Waite was a member of the Rosicrucian Order. Which started in an unknown time, recorded around 1450 to be 8 Doctors, that healed people for free. The order took off in ways, and founded the College of Invisibles, and had members of the best alchemists, astronomers, etc. King Charles ll made it a royal college. Apparently, The Order inspired most masonic orders, that eventually branched out. Interesting to note, that it branched out into America, around the early 1800s around NY and PA. Its based heavily on the alchemy of the soul, and astrology. Certain times of the year, when the planets were aligned in the perfect "Degrees" in relation, they would perform outward symbolic rituals to achieve the inner alchemized result. The ranks were dictated by time, seeing as the planets had to be located correctly. This is where the "Degrees" or rank of members comes from. (2nd degree mason etc.) I would not be surprised if blood rituals were involved. The sects in America in the 1800s were usually only accessible to high ranking Christian ministers. Some were Masonic related, as an inner circle of Master Masons. ( Master Mason extra credit if you will.) I would not be surprised if Joe Smith was a part of this. The teachings stem from Hermeticism, Kabbalah, Thoth of Egypt, Christ, and Tarot. Involving the ability to see the things that are to come and the inner workings of the invisible temple that we all inhabit. Anyways. A subject worth studying, for someone interested in the evolution of cult organizations based around religion, esoteric development, history, and just straight curiosity. Also interesting to note, that President Monson was a master mason, and most of the prophets have been. The rituals that Moses used in his Tent Temple while they were "wandering the wilderness for 40 years" are very similar to those in the Mormon temple, and the masons. (Which, Moses being educated in the royal family of Egypt, as well as by his Hebrew mother, would have constructed these from Thoth, as well as from Solomon.) But, thank God that Jesus came to do away with the law of Moses. He condensed like 700 commandments into two, and died so that we can stop outwardly ritualizing our inner forgiveness process. (No more sacrifices, lining up the stars, whipping ourselves, digging through useless knowledge about which star that God lives on, adding books of "missing knowledge," and reintroducing outward covenants via special raiment and hats... wait..) It is of my opinion, that anyone that promotes extra teachings, rituals, the law of Moses, Mandatory mouthpieces of God, secret combinations, cower from shame and light, and "comes in the name of Christ," Is ironically the Anti-Christ themselves. Its the most cunning and favorite disguise that Satan wears. Galatians 3:24-26 "24 Therefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. 25 But when faith is come, we are no longer under the hand of the schoolmaster. 26 For ye are all sons of God by faith in Christ Jesus."
quite obviously j smith knew a lot about the occult. he was suppose to see the gold plates at the equinox 22 sept. there are two equinoxes every year and he mentions them both. the thricing visitation of angel moroni looks like a visitation of ghosts/spirits. thrice visited means especially locked in visitation. j smith was never christian. he milked christians and anyone for anything he could get money wise. he took martin harris for everything he had. then when there were a lot of dupes around in kirtland he took all their money in kirtland bank fraud. then in missouri he tried starting another fraud scheme and counterfeiting. it all came together in nauvoo with land speculation (buying city lots for $1 then selling them for $whatever) and being trustee in chief for everything that wasn't nailed down, including other men's wives. mormons are so deluded. the adulterer, murderer, thief, counterfeiter, con man j smith is touted as a prophet and a god and they sing praises to him. what a sad joke.
I have always remembered heaven from before I was born, I was shown my life before living it. And I kept this a secret my entire life, even kept it a secret from my parents and from the church even though being born into the church I always felt like this place would challenge or correct my memory in some way to say that it isn’t possible or because I am not a male that I could not have this power. I understood that telling people would result in the destruction of my memory. I don’t know if I stole information from heaven or if I fought through the veil or if God let me keep my memories. I’ve always felt ashamed for this but strangely fortunate.
It's Me Jessie Cardinal Newman said, "To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant." He was a famous Anglican convert who probably new more about Christianity than you and I put together. I agree totally about the corruption in the Catholic Church beginning with the “pope”. What you see as the Catholic Church today is not what the Catholic Church is, however there are those who hold to the True Catholic Faith. Much of the hierarchy has been infiltrated by freemasonry, look up Bella Dodd. Also there has been church approved prophecies of evil popes. Letter of Saint Athanasius to His Flock (4th Century A.D.) "May God console you! ... What saddens you ... is the fact that others have occupied the churches by violence, while during this time you are on the outside. It is a fact that they have the premises --- but you have the Apostolic Faith. They can occupy our churches, but they are outside the true Faith. (Arian Hersey) I could attack any Protestant religion on the conduct of its leaders or individuals but we both know that is a unreasonable approach to any debate or analysis. On the flip side no other faith has produced so many Heroic Saints and leaders, those who built the whole of Christendom, the history is there. And had it not been for the Crusades you and I probably wouldn’t exist, Catholic Europe wouldn’t exist and our Catholic ancestors would all be speaking Arabic - Ref. The Battle of Lepanto. th-cam.com/video/4EpZdGKG-0Y/w-d-xo.html How is it that from the time of Jesus up to the time of Luther christianity was distinctly Catholic? So your saying there were “sola scriptura” believing Christian in the 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th centuries before the final Canon of the Bible was even established, prove it. You probably think the foundation of truth is the Bible, tell me where in the Bible is this claim made, rather.... 1 Timothy 3:15 15 if I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the Church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth. If all I need is “sola fide” than I don’t even need the Bible. The whole Protestant argument falls apart like a house of cards if one truly seeks to now and love the truth. Who’s the pastor that started your church? I appreciate the research and the videos you have done concerning the Mormon teachings and the approach you take by using their own “scripture” to expose its falsities, I think you have it all covered on that level. I would like you to take the same approach to the Catholic Church and produce some videos. The Catholic Church is like a Lion just let it out of its cage and it will defend itself 😉. May God Bless You and Your Work!
James Vigil. How do you respond to the several popes since Vatican II who have participated in worship with religions which reject Jesus Christ, and have taught that it is wrong to proselytize? How do you respond to images of non-Christian religions being placed on Roman Catholic altars, multi-religious gatherings at Assissi, led by popes, and popes kissing a "holy book" which denies that Jesus is God incarnate and that he died on the cross for us? I would think sedevacantism is the only way to be consistent with the Roman Catholic tradition, as it is clear that modernism, condemned by previous popes, has gained possession of the Roman hierarchy.
anselman I respond by saying I don’t like it anymore than you do. I also believe that The Church is more than just the pope and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. I believe The Church as The Body of Christ is somewhere in its passion, though Christ Body was disfigured and unrecognizable it still remained perfect and holy and somewhere along the way Peter denied Him three times and was absent, however he still remained the possessor of the Keys. However The Beloved Disciple remained with Christ and His Mother and his faith did not waver all the while Peter still had the Keys but lacked the faith. Sister Lucia said there was a diabolical disorientation in the world, the Bible eludes to these events, the Fatima prophesies elude to events much like our own time. I tend to think Benedict is still pope rather than Francis. However in regards to the post conciliar popes I’m not saying they aren’t the popes I just don’t see how they can be the popes. I can’t make any final judgment as you can see but perhaps they possess the buildings and we possess The Faith.
Have you ever read "The Maze Of Mormonism" by Walter Martin? I do remember, growing up, there was a lot of discussion over if Oliver Cowdry was burning in hell or not, also there was great discussion over the eternal fate of certain wives of Joseph Smith, and Brigham Young, who left "the church" What is the documentation of "Mahomet" being the name of a demon? Is it just me or does "Mahomet" sound a lot like "Mohamed"?
@@itsmejessie I still think ya ought to be on Jeff's radio show for an episode. I think it'd be neat to discuss your videos here and your overall goal.
So I’m both an active LDS member “Mormon” and a Master Mason. I will say that you have several surface level things in this video that are correct but on the deeper levels of discussion, there is a lot of misinformation tied with misunderstandings. Even into the discussion of symbols such as the pentagram, yes it is associated with occult practices. It was first adopted in the 19th century during the renaissance era but it has not always been an occult symbol and ties back to original Greek meanings of mutual recognition and wellbeing but going even further back, it was used for various purposes and meanings dating back 3500BCE (before occultism was a thing). You will see the symbol on LDS temples and it references scripture from Revelations 12. There are also several Catholic cathedrals across Europe that have the symbol as apart of the architecture as well. I understand it’s apart of your shtick to portray Mormonism and Freemasonry in bad lights and I doubt that you or your subscribers will change opinions or have open minds to legitimate discourse but please have some due diligence and do some actual in depth research of religious customs, practices, symbols, and symbolism meanings from reliable sources instead of just looking up a wiki article and referencing information from people within your same echo chamber.
"BCE"? And you're a practicing LDS member? You don't even reference the historical timeline with "Before Christ" but use the modern Atheist's terminology "Before Common Era"?
@@itsmejessie Using BC vs BCE is trying to make a point with straw man semantics. I used a common term that is used in educational and other professional settings across the world. That alone does not reflect one’s personal religious beliefs. My points still stand that regardless of how you feel, this video is filled with misinformation and I can say that with confidence because I am both an active Mormon and Mason. I’ll leave you with this thought. Jesus died on that cross for me the same as He did for you. His atoning sacrifice covers us all. He is our Lord and Savior and is the same yesterday, today, and forever. I can track, trace, and reference all of my beliefs and religious practices to the Holy Bible. I have attended religious services of dozens of other religions, denominations, and religious sects and have read their religious books of scripture. I know where my spiritual path has taken me and I will continue down it because I know that it has made me a better person. At the end of it all, I will stand before the throne of God, and I am looking forward to hearing the words of our Father saying “Well done My good and faithful servant. I certainly wish you the best and urge you to continue learning all you can and to refrain from calling the religion of millions of people occult when you do not know or understand the beliefs, principles and full history of the religion.
@tapir rider It is true that I have not experienced the endowment from pre 1990. That is irrelevant though due to the fact that I know what was included and done. I have the ability of doing in depth research and yielding reliable results from reliable sources and understanding the meanings and symbolism. Me being a Mason has nothing to do with the temple endowment but everything to do with understanding that this video incorrectly interprets signs, symbols, and meanings. Instead of commenting an arbitrary argument of “you didn’t have my experience, therefore your wrong”, please read my initial post/comment and try to respond with some form of logic. Not even the creator replied with anything substantial to me and they tried to use a straw man point of reference to try to call me an atheist. Knowing how this conversation will likely go, I already understand that you will probably not listen to other points of view and will likely try to shout me down regardless of anything else that I may say. Because of this, I will likely not take any more time to respond and I do sincerely wish you the best.
there is a lot of similarity between masons and mormonism, besides some of the symbolism, even today. and i am sure you are not advocating a path marked by the broadest gray line possible. you have been given to know being raised even as a suckling babe at your mother's breast and later at her knees the good things the sweet things of life. and later didn't you try to fit into the shadow of your father? isn''t his example of manly goodness the light that leads you even today? or at the very least the desire to be known by your fellow man for your own manly goodness and the example to those you come into contact. i am fairly certain you have not embarked on this pathway because duplicitous in the heart, or weak. and no one is accusing you of falsehood. but what do we see? you entered the doors of masonry and your heart was pierced (you remember) and they told you to be forthright with your fellow man. and then you entered a temple made with human hands. and they added to that message you had received from masonry, the square the compass, and the 24 inch gauge. and they told you to keep it close to your body. anciently the living god had a temple on earth made with human hands. we (humans) could see it with our eyes. it was a place in the physical world. and people flocked to it. and marvelled. and pondered at what they saw; at what they were told to builid. we will recall the silver trumpets, blasting out their clarion call, gold inlay and gold overlay, brass and 5 cubits (it was not 6), blood of bulls and blood of rams, and the god of all gods who dwelt in mists of thick darkness behind a separating curtain (the veil) made of the skins of badgers and other things; held together with fine red thread.. and everyone who came pondered deeply over what they saw and heard. and everyone, and i think i know without being told, and everyone wanted deeply and desired deeply, the salvation of god.

Nice video and great information. You present the information in a clear and concise manner. Nimrod is considered to be the first Freemason. Nimrod’s lineage goes through Canaan, Ham, Tubalcain, and finally to Cain. Tubalcain’s sister was Namaah, the mother of Ham. Cain is not included in the lineage of Adam... Isn’t that strange? What are your thoughts on this?
The myth that Nimrod is considered to the first Freemason has no historical or factual backing, although it is often quoted from the same single source that originated and spread this myth. Historical evidence in the form of the Cooke Manuscript in the British Library purports to show a lineage through Lamech. If I had to make a choise' I would choose a history with some providence way about anti Masonry authors (who only arose in the late 17h00's and are normally either fundamentalists or New Liberals opposing the conservative stance of Freemasonry

Stay in faith young lady i appereciate u exposeing and shedding light on the truth. The LORD IS WATCHING AND HE IS ALIVE SOON ALL DECEPTION WILL BE EXPOSED! thank you
My wife and I left the church several years ago. When we left the church we left God. I felt that if I was deceived already, how could anything else possibly be true. Well as several months went on, we had a divine desire to read the new testament as a child, without all the Mormon dogma in our minds. The truth started to unfold in our hearts and minds as we studied the words of the savior and his true disciples. All the feelings and emotions that the church pressed into our minds since childhood, began to evaporate as we read the bible with the spirit of truth. I plead with every Mormon our their to study the real words of Christ as they were intended. It will change your life, you will feel the true spirit as you accept Christ and stop practicing the archaic teachings of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young. God is not chaos, and love cannot exist among the chaos. The teachings of the Mormon church make you religious to a false cause, but you never gain true spirituality due to the illusions you believe. Great videos Jess, keep up the great work!
How do you know the Bible contains the 'True Gospel'?
Testimonies like yours are very encouraging.

Chris, I will tell you this....I was Mormon for 25 years of my life. Went to 3hr church, paid my tithing, fullfilled callings, read the book of mormon. Over the 25 years, I performed a bunch of outward things, that I was told would draw me to God. Joseph wasn't a prophet and the church is an illusion. I read the new testament and realized Christ taught spirituality, he didn't teach religion. When I started applying and understanding the teachings of the savior, my life changed. I loved more, I forgave more, I judgeless, I serve,teach and help anyone I can. The message of Christ will change your life. That's how I know Chris. I was changed spiritually. If you follow Illusions,you will not see spiritual growth and the spirit of truth can't teach.

The Lord is exposing the lies of cults and will destroy the works of the devil, just as Jesus said He would. God bless you.
This is so incredible Shellie. Welcome to the family of the God! So many seem to leave LDS and become atheist or agnostic or maybe those are just some of the more vocal ones. It blows my mind that someone could leave the LDS cult system and find the Biblical Jesus Christ. God is there for those that seek and knock and question the beliefs they grew up with.

Mark Hofmann wrote numerous false documents and published them as "authentic." They are well known as the "Salamander letters." Hofmann was featured in "Who the f#@& did I marry" where it goes into detail how Hofmann purchased shells carbon dating from the same time Joseph Smith was alive. He then crushed the shells into powder and mixed it with ink that was made exactly like it was in the 1800's. He then purchased a used book and said he "found" a letter in the book and sell it to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Joseph Smith and his family were NEVER into the occult, magick, or "seer stones." These were all made up by Mark Hoffman. When he was caught, he planted a BOMB at one of the church members house and set it off.

If you stand for the truth you'll be baptized in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Thank you, Jessie, for your insightful videos.
You have saved me.
I was recently baptised into the Mormon church but have now renounced this action. I was recently diagnosed with Bipolar and in my most recent hypo-manic phase, I managed to fast-track my baptism into the church. Once on appropriate medication, I realised my mistake.
Your well-researched and presented videos have helped me to get my thoughts straight and open my now clear thinking brain, to this terrible error!
I'll be going back to the Christian church I'd been attending, and continuing on the straight and narrow path, seeking forgiveness and growing in my relationship with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour.
Blessings to you, Jessie.
God bless you as well, we left after only three weeks after baptism, going to c of e church now love it and being confirmed in June, I can’t wait for my classes. I didn’t feel this with the morman church, Jesus was looking after hubby and me. He is my saviour.
Diane Dukes, are you planning to join the Anglican Church? If you would not mind sharing: what caused you to leave the LDS Church so soon after baptism? You have spoken of feelings as being an important part of your spiritual search. Often, Latter-Day Saints are criticized for emphasizing a personal impression by the Holy Spirit, which may penetrate the emotions. Any further insights you may be able to provide would be most appreciated.
Sweet Jessie, this post is a farce.
@@MemoryCircle are you referring to what I wrote or the video?

Women are seen as breeders or homemakers, nothing else, the worshiping of Joseph Smith it seemed they put him as high as god.

They are not a secret society but rather a society of secrets .
I’m 28 years old. I was raised in Salt Lake City, I was raised Mormon, my names still on church records. Both my parents served missions, as did my brother (I’m the eldest of 5). I began to look into the Bible recently, and when I went to my parents with questions I was shocked to hear that neither of them had actually read the Bible. The Book of Mormon is all i was taught about in church. ‘Seek and ye shall find’ has always stuck with me. For many years I refused to seek, I associated Christ with the church, it’s still hard not to. The shame and guilt I had when I chose not to serve a mission was unbearable to me. I tried heroin for the first time as a junior in high school, and fell into addiction for several years. By the end, I was using intravenously. I refused to give Christ a chance because again, to me, Christ represented the ‘one true church’ with the ‘whole truth’. After years of struggling, I began praying. I started studying. While I have not read the entire Bible, nor Book of Mormon, I have seen things in the Bible that seem contradictory to the Book of Mormon. I ask myself if Jesus would stand by all the secrecy, the type of secrets I can’t even bring up to my family, because I’m not supposed to know for one, and for two, they truly believe if they were to even converse with me about these secrets and rituals, they’ll perish. I feel extremely alone, I feel afraid, I still can’t seem to shake the guilt for even questioning the teachings. But I have to speak my mind. The more I seek god, and Jesus, the further I am driven from the LDS religion. I see contradictions in what the Bible says and what the BOM says. I see similarities in the church, and freemasonry, which I believe is of the occult. I stumbled into a video about Alister Crowley, it spoke on the Freemasons, who’s symbolism was all over the high school I attended, in Utah. That lead me into researching more about freemasonry. I see what appears to be idolatry. Rituals. Magic. I was under the impression the church taught that you should always steer clear of any type of ‘magic’ be it black magic, white magic, even things like stones, tarot cards, etc. I don’t understand how I’m the only one in my family who sees Joseph Smith being a Freemason as a red flag. It seems the more I try to find god, and the more I research the church I was born into, the more my stomach hurts. I get a sick feeling, and sometimes i feel like that feeling comes from me questioning the beliefs I was raised with. On the other hand, I feel like it makes me sick because I am seeing evil, in this thing I’ve always believed. I don’t understand why or how a god would separate me from my family because I’m not endowed. Why would god not allow me into the ‘celestial kingdom’ - to meet him. My family can ‘come down’ to the level of heaven I’d likely be on, to see me, but I can’t go see them? That’s never sat right with me. I have a stronger testimony in Christ than I ever have at this time, and it seems to be driving me away from the church. And it’s uncomfortable. And scary. But I was told ‘seek, and ye shall find’. I’m finding things that can’t be right. From the racism that existed and exists in the church, from what the term ‘lamanite’ actually represents (my fiancé is Latina) to Joseph smith practicing what appears to be magic, or attempting to, to the polygamy the fundamentalists still practice (some live in my parents neighborhood, to this day, in salt lake county) to the rituals in the temple, the secrecy, I don’t know what is what anymore. I do believe in God, if he wasn’t real, I wouldn’t be here. I do believe in Christ, I’ve felt him, and I know that feeling. I also know the feeling of darkness, and the devil, from my experience and struggles with addiction. I am beginning to believe no religion, no church is necessary for me to have a relationship with God, or Jesus, or the Holy Spirit. And I just don’t know what to do honestly. The church has helped me, although I’ve been told not to disclose this - because it could anger members, my first rehab was paid for by the church. From tithing. I was told certain people would be upset if I talked openly about that. What kind of believer in Christ would be angry, knowing their money put me in treatment? How can one believe the teachings of Christ, and look down on me and judge me and shame me for the struggles I’ve faced, and decisions I’ve made, when I have such a strong testimony of God? I grew up in a state where you’re family is judged by how your lawn looks. On what you wear to church. Why did I never see anyone openly admit to struggling at church. Nobody smelled of alcohol, or cigarettes, nobody spoke anything positive toward ‘those people’. Shouldn’t a church claiming to have the whole truth, WANT more people in the building who are struggling? If someone came to church, smelling like alcohol or any substance at all - be welcomed and loved even more - knowing they’re at least trying to find God? They’re only judged. I don’t know what religion to follow. I don’t know if leaving my name in the church records even matters. I want God to know I believe. Would removing my name be a sign of disrespect? And if I removed my name, would I lose the Holy Spirit as I’ve been taught? And if so, what church should I go to to be baptized? Do I even need that, if I believe and accept Jesus as my lord and savior? What am I to do. I can’t approach these topics or ask these questions to any family, or any members, without them being offended and getting angry - interpreting my confusion as disrespect, regardless of how respectful I ask. It’s like the more I look for God, the more lost im becoming. Idk why im sharing this, I guess im truly confused and afraid. I know in my heart God knows me. If there is a god who would disallow me from seeing my family or being in his presence because I’m not a tithe payer, because I’m not endowed, I don’t know that I’d even want to meet him. This church can’t be what they’ve convinced me of being. I shouldn’t feel like this. So lost, but seeking simultaneously. I feel like a bad person, a lot, because I have these questions, and because i question. Because I am seeking. I respect the church, i respect all churches and religions. Must I pick one, and one only, to be considered a Christian? I have to find the right religion, and do everything they say, to meet my creator? The devil has worked hard on me. He’s either infiltrated the church, or I’ve allowed him to infiltrate my beliefs. That’s what I’m told. I pray if there’s anyone else like me who can relate, you don’t feel these feelings. Will this ever go away? I will try to continue to study the Bible, and pray, and I hope I find my truth. I still can’t believe how many members haven’t read the Bible. How is that possible? I thought we were supposed to start with the Bible. Idk anymore. I love my family, I love God. I’m more lost than I realized, writing this comment. I don’t expect anyone to read this novel, i didn’t plan on writing all this and idk why. Maybe someone out there will read this and not feel so alone. I don’t know. I’m just trying to find my own belief and cultivate a relationship with God. I am trying to do thy will. And it’s unbearable at times. The worlds a scary place. I love you all, whether you’re offended or agree, or want to tell me I’m in the wrong or right - I love you. I hope whoever needs to see this, gets something out of it. You’re not alone if you feel this struggle. We will be alright. Right?
Hi! Thanks for being so open and honest and for sharing all of this with me. I believe that all of humanity should set out on a quest for truth, even if truth is harsh and can be painful and will undo many beliefs you may have held deeply and aligned your life with. Truth matters. And what fills me with joy and peace and hope is believing wholeheartedly and with confident assurance that I have found absolute truth within the Word of God, the Bible. It is an entirely different Gospel than the one you grew up with in Mormonism. The doctrine is different. Even the God of the Bible is different, therefore making Salvation and every important and crucial aspect of Biblical Christianity different than that of Mormonism. And if you have Jesus wrong, how can you be Born Again and saved into the family of God eternally? Your trust has to be in the one true Savior and not the false savior who Joseph Smith wrote about when he created Mormonism and wrote the Book of Mormon as well as Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price. Joseph Smith was typical of many during that time who took the Bible, changed it, taught his followers not to trust it unless it was interpreted within the lense of LDS doctrinal beliefs or even changed into a translation where Joseph took away portions of Scripture, changed portions and also added to portions to change the story like in the Joseph Smith Translation of the Bible. He had to personally change John chapter 1 to change who Jesus is so that it aligned with Mormonism's doctrinal beliefs. Be careful of any human who tries to alter the Word of God. But how can we trust the Bible, many ask? Well, there are lots of reasons and I'd love to get into some of them. The Bible is two books in one--The Old Testament and the New Testament. Both books self-authenticate one another through fulfilled prophesies to the level of mathematical impossibility that a human ever could have penned down the words without Divine inspiration. Not only this but we find historical accuracy within Scripture and have found ancient texts and manuscripts throughout every single century that align perfectly with the Bible we hold today, proving that the doctrine and message has never changed. Please purchase and read the book "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" by Josh and Sean McDowell if you'd like to get into the arguments for the validity and authenticity of the Bible. It's truly life changing! But simply through reading the Bible ourselves, we can learn and see who Jesus is and what He did for each one of us and that it is through Jesus Christ alone that we can receive Salvation. The Gospel of John in the New Testament, as well as Romans and Hebrews and others, lay this out for us so clearly and are everything we need to come to know Jesus Christ as our personal Savior. But Biblical Scripture is all the inspired, active, living Word of God and is so important to read and to know. This is really the only reason we need churches to preach the Word... so that we can learn and grow and also be living in fellowship with other Christians who can help us, hold us accountable, love us, care for us when needed and who can do what you mentioned above and be authentic friends who can help us with our addictions and struggles and give us direction and resources and encouragement to get well again. But God alone heals us and has the power over Satan's strongholds and sin. When we are born again (saved!) into the family of God, we become new creations and God's Holy Spirit indwells us and we finally have power through Him to defeat the sins in our lives. But outside of being saved and having God in our lives, we are still in bondage to our sins and have no power to defeat them on our own. Salvation equals freedom! Freedom from death and sin, freedom from guilt and pain, freedom from depression and anxiety... because God forgives each and every sinner who repents and surrenders his life to Christ, accepting and trusting in Jesus Christ alone for the Salvation of his soul. And then its no longer us living on our own but is GOD IN US living. And we can hold a confident assurance of Salvation as we root our lives in God's truth and establish our faith as we grow closer to Him spiritually. It's a journey. But the most important journey anyone will ever take. Finding Biblical Christianity is humanity's only source of hope, truth, purpose, joy and peace. I personally urge you to continue in the Word of God, continue on your quest for truth. Ask ALL the questions. Seek after ALL the answers. Don't ever be content to merely accept a "blind faith" but keep learning until you realize you can find a faith so sufficient, you can't help but to share it with everyone you know so that they too can experience the joy and hope found in relationship with Jesus Christ and have assurance of eternal Salvation. No church is perfect because no human is perfect outside of Jesus Christ when he had His earthly ministry but that doesn't mean that church holds no importance. I typically encourage exMormons to try to find a local Baptist Church so that they can understand the doctrine held by Born Again Christians. Christians are worldwide, in many different churches (though many churches hold unbiblical doctrines so you have to be careful to align your doctrine with the Word of God), and the church is made up of individual believers around the globe who have been saved by God's grace. It's not a title or a building or one specific denomination or a corporate entity. It's believers meeting to learn about God, to worship Him and to equip themselves to share His Gospel and to live in community with like-minded believers who can love one another. I'm so glad you commented. I know my response is packed full of a LOT of things and may be a bit of a jumbled mess but I had to reply. Please know that you are loved by the God of the universe and you are not alone. You are seen, you are loved and your life matters. ❤️ I truly pray that you will be Biblically saved and that the Lord will use your life greatly to reach your family and community and friends within the LDS world and otherwise. I have seen incredible things happen over the last 5 plus years since starting this channel and I know the Holy Spirit is at work in your heart as we speak. Keep pursuing truth. Keep pursuing God. You'll never regret it. Sending with love and care for your life and your eternal soul. -Jessie

@@eastonclark if I can be of any further guidance or encouragement to you, you can always reach me through my connected Facebook page called "Happiness is Free" (you'll see me in the main picture) and can send a message that I'll try to get to as soon as possible. I'm just a person who loves Jesus and wants to do my best to help others find hope and security within the truth of the Word of God. There are many incredible resources out there that can help guide you as you navigate LDS beliefs and put them up against those of Biblical Christianity and I'm happy to send some your way, if desired. But you're very welcome for the reply. I'm glad I caught your comment, as it's easy to miss many. I certainly am nothing important on my own but I am blessed and humbled to hold the treasure of the true Gospel within my heart and it's a privilege for me to share it with others. I'm so glad you are encouraged today. I truly hope you'll dive into the Bible and get to know who Jesus is. Maybe start with the Book of John in the New Testament? As James 1:5 says (which is a Bible verse most LDS people know by heart but they use it to try and prove the Book of Mormon rather than read it for what it actually says) if we ask God for wisdom, He will give it to us liberally! And what that means is that if we come to God and ask Him to give us spiritual wisdom and discernment, He will open up His Word to us and give us an understanding that we would never have otherwise. He gave us sound, intelligent minds that are able to discern truth from the lies. All of the questions and problems and fears arising in your heart that you mentioned above are valid and it's wise that you want to find satisfactory answers to all of them. You are certainly not alone, I might add. You're dealing with what hundreds of other LDS people are dealing with as well as they have begun to question everything and are on a quest to try to find truth. I know it's not easy. I know you have an entire family and community and history/background within the LDS church and it has defined your life for many, many years. And yet, here we are. You and I are now discussing beliefs and you've found my channel where I break down the vast differences between Mormonism and Biblical Christianity in over 50 videos. I'm so glad God crossed our paths and my prayer is that God uses me as a tool to help you find Salvation and truth. And that this very conversation is the starting point to you feeling bold and brave and empowered on your journey to find truth. May the Lord bless and keep you, may His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. May the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace. 🙏 Please don't ever ignore the Holy Spirit's prompting upon your heart as He leads you toward the most important thing in life... His free and beautiful Gospel. 1 John 1:9, "If we confess our sins He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." John 3:16-18, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son." Ephesians 2:8-10, "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And not of yourselves, it is the GIFT of God, not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Titus 3:5, "He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of His mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.." Romans 8:38-39, "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
God bless you, friend.
Your intuition is guiding you in the right direction. Leaving mormonism will free you. I know I'm a random person, but I'm sending you love and peace. Everything will be ok. ❤
This is the most beautiful novel I have read!! Thanks for sharing! I left Mormonism last year. It wasn’t emotionally easy and that time, I was doing my internship up at the church headquarters in SLC. The more I desired to know Jesus Christ, the more it became spiritually easy for me to walk out of Mormonism though, socially and emotionally it was tough. I want to get my records out but am scared. Once I made the decision that am done, that’s when I stopped attending church/temple ordinances. I want to be baptized out of this church (I don’t even though if it’s a thing). I renounce all the religious practices I participated in primarily with the thought of wanting to reunite with my late father. The death of my dad made me become desperately hungry for anything that would me be with him again. He wasn’t a member of the church neither is the rest of my family. I am the only one that converted because I wanted to be with him so I made sure I get his proxy baptism done with the hope of him accepting the gospel on the other side of the veil. Years later I did his endowment and when I asked if I could proceed to do his sealing and possibly also get sealed to him, I was told that it’s impossible since they weren’t married (him & my mother). If there’s anyone that has successfully removed their records from the church, I’d be interested in knowing how that went for you. Again, thanks for sharing!!
As an active LDS Church member for many years I wore garments and participated in many endowment ceremonies. Interestingly, it wasn't until I removed the garments after leaving the church in 2019 that my relentless (horrible) nightmares finally went away!
Why do you think this is so. What control do these undergarments have?

Thank you for creating this video and helping to expose the Mormon cult. My wife and I left the Mormon cult in the last year and found a biblical Christian church, have been saved, and became true followers of Jesus. My wife and I were raised in the Mormon church and never really felt like things were right in that church. We are both sensitive to the Holy Spirit and God was always trying to tell us that the Mormon church is false. We now feel we are on the right path and have learned just how the Mormon church is full of lies and deceit and was founded on the imagination of a false prophet, pagan and occultist who was fascinated with all of the religions of the world. There is no doubt Joe Smith took the temple rituals directly from the Masons and the symbols from several other religions. He took ideas, teachings, books, and rituals directly from other religions. True followers of Christ will follow His teachings, which are only found in the Bible.
Thank you so much for leaving so we didn't have to throw you out.
@larzuga1 Then why is the book of revelation Christ's message to John about future Christians only today. Christ told John that future Believers would serve Christ day and night in HIS temple "Rev. 7:15"And that they would all wear WHITE ROBES and garments and in that temple worship they would Wash their robes in Christ's blood. Rev. 7:10-15? How about Christ 2nd coming where he says he will come suddenly to his TEMPLE? Malachi 3:1" Why aren't Christian's doing what Christ told John must be going on today. Only LDS are following the Bible? Link UTube video titled (BOA ep 16)
Your sincere concern comes across in your videos, your presentation is caring and gentle, your points clear and concise, keep up the good work Sister... a Brother in the Lord -
The devil speaks with a soft tongue. Very sad that you buy this crap.
thank you so much for posting this. being born and raised mormon I always felt something was missing. My wife and I were married in the temple but within a few years had become inactive. a few years ago our daughter invited us to a Christian church. it was so different I wasn't sure what to think but quickly came to love it. I recently watched a video on the freemasons and then seeing your video, I felt sick to my stomach at being so deceived. but I am thankful we found the truth and have been born again. thank you again for sharing!
I grew up Mormon in Utah, and I know you are right.
Just came back from Smithfield Monday night. First time in Utah and I loved it, it was beautiful. My heart yearns for all of them to find the true Jesus. Very nice people but just deceived by Satan like I once was as a Roman Catholic and believer in New Age after that. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ for setting me free

I love this video and want to say how powerful it is . My family and I have been members of the church for my whole life until the last 7 or 8 months . How we discovered the truth is through the last general conference of the church in April of this year 2020. Lots of things have been bothering us for many years but the April conference was the final icing on the cake that sealed the deal for us .
I think this video could be even more powerful by the way , if you included the origins of Freemasonry and why it is occult . There is a group of Occult Freemasons , that link back to the Ancient Accepted Scottish right who have been responsible for corrupting original Freemasonry . The Occultist group I am referring to is called the ILLUMINATI ... perhaps you have heard of them , and maybe you were told that such a title or sect of power was nothing more than a fantasy . It would be of interest to you I think if you studied Adam Weishaupt , Aleister Crowley , and Anton Levey .... but more especially Adam Weishaupt . In 1776 Adam reestablished the ILLUMINATI and merged it into Freemasonry , ever since 1776 original Freemasonry was no longer the pure thing it was intended to be from the beginning . This means that when Joseph Smith and others became initiated , they were not only initiated into Freemasonic Occultism but ILLUMINATI Occultism ... which is why the Mormon Temple Endowment reflects so much of the Occult esoteric wisdom and the mysteries of the hidden wisdom . Becuase of magicians like Aleister Crowley .....portals were opened to access Demons who disguised themselves as angels of God and spoke to Crowley giving him commands , directions and other great secrets . Upon opening the portals to these demons and revealing the secret magic to the ILLUMINATI factions ....now ordinances and ceremonies reflect the secret signs , tokens and keywords that are believed to be powers used to call forth angels , etc .
In the LDS temple endowment , more "enlightened" members believe that this (magic ) Endowment is giving them the keys to build Zion , which is prophesied to be built in the Latter Days before the Second coming . Also it is taught that if a person is faithful enough they can receive what is called obtaining their "second comforter" . The event of a second comforter experience is that Christ himself comes to a temple worthy individual once they have been enlightened enough by the mysteries of the Endowment . Such a person is promised that they can see him , touch the markings in his hands and feet and then ask him for a special gift . I know several Mormons who call themselves Zion seekers who believe it is their mission to become one of the 144,000 mentioned in the Book of Revelations. They particularly study the gift of Translation .....not translation of Scripture but the gift of Translation I am referring to is a gift that Christ gives to an exceptionally faithful Latter Day Saint . This gift is literally power over death and life ...meaning that the person who recieves it has power over their own life and death . It also gives them power over all elements ...such as air , earth , fire , water ....as translated beings are referred to as Seraphim in the book of Isaiah. The Seraphim have all these powers ...and it is believed amongst the Zion seekers that this right to become a Seraphim is part of the sealing power in the temple ....as the sealing power is much deeper than just your family ....it is all those who God may promise to such a righteous soul. This causes these kinds of members of the church to feel even more stalwart in deciphering the mysteries of the Endowment and receiving this empowerment from Christ , which they believe gives them the right to gather the elect from the four corners of the earth and prepare them and bring them to Zion .
They have no idea that the Endowment they participate in is an ILLUMINATI corrupted Endowment through the Freemasonic influence that Joseph and others brought into the LDS spectrum after their initiation . I just don't think Joseph fully understood what he got involved with as he only rose to the 3rd degree . Most of my information comes from a 33rd degree Illuminati freemason , whose books I have been studying in amazement . I know of several members of the church who have claimed to me to have had divine manifestations in the temple from beings of power and light . Some have even told me that they have obtained their second comforter experience .....I tell you this becuase you may come across this stuff as well . I used to be someone who believed In all the things I have written here and after the lies were unveiled me and my family definitely felt cheated and betrayed and lied to ......we also have been angry over it becuase so many years of our life was wasted in the prison called the LDS church . Today we embrace no religion and find it significant to draw close to Jesus personally without any religion defining our path . If you would like access to my resources and access to my info you can definitely PM me on messenger , under either Jareth Brashear or Jareth Brashear Kaehler . I would love to see more and more videos tear down this mega corporation and the pure evil sham that it is .....I would also love to see many of my LGBTQ friends leave this evil behind as some of them are still programmed by its powerful emotional codependency. Thank you so much for doing all you are doing to expose the truth .
Love and Light

It messes your head up to know you were serving the wrong master...God spoke to me and told me that He knew my true intentions and that I always was serving Him in my heart...I knew no different. I was 2 when put in the church. You just dont know until you wake up...thank God for freedom in Him!!!
wow jareth you really are vested so mason's at one point before the S'Rites perhaps had something? i would find it interesting if there was a power to lift the rot (so to speak) in the writings to leave only the truth , that would be a value
I finally found out that the Mormons were Freemasons just about a month ago and I've been upset ever since, cause my grandparents whom I loved dearly were Mormons and they did the temple sealings all the time, and my grandad was a bishop, so to say I've been devastated is an understatement. They joined in the late 70's to early 80's I think. Do you think they knew these awful things, cause they were great people and exceptional grandparents, and I know this is a year later so if you get this would you mind sharing your resources you mentioned above with me too? They have been trying to recruit me for years but I just never felt right about it, and that's even before I became a Christian. I'm just looking for answers, cause I have to know if they knew these things.
@@jessicaconner80
Hi Jessica ,
I seriously doubt that your grandparents knew these things . Given their generation and the timing when they grew up in the church , it's not likely that they knew any of the things I mentioned above . The Zion seekers are a whole new breed of people that come from our modern generation .....but they are also people who went against the original "grain" of what it means to be an average Mormon . If your an average Mormon it will be mostly ok to keep your mind and heart focused on what is called the "basics" in the church ....most people never ever seek the "deep knowledge " nor ever worry about the things that were promised by the early so called prophets of the LDS church. Most members , I would say a good 85 percent don't even know that receiving the "second comforter " is a promised right of the Endowment of knowledge and power in the temple . It is considered to be a great "secret" only spoken of by seekers of Zion in the church who believe that they can reveal themselves to others in the church they can trust. Unless your grandparents went exceptionally deep with the doctrines of the church they won't have come across these things ....but if they approached their membership how most do ...in a casual way then they likely knew nothing of this and were probably innocently involved thinking that living the churches moral code would simply bring them an eternal family unit in the next life and lots of blessings in this one .
@@pitelf3852
I've wondered that same thing and have concluded at this point that the teachings of the original Freemasons are so corrupted now that they don't even come close to representing what they used to be . The symbols they possess in regards to mathematical mysteries and laws of the universe and universes are still special ....but it would take a valiant mind to decipher their meanings and an open heart to God , without the false dogmas of religion and the secret societies getting in the way . Original initiates like "Pythagoras" probably came closest to possessing the ancient secrets that the Original freemasons may have possessed before the Illuminati factions corrupted the intentions behind the spiritual fabric of it all . If one wants to glean any truth at all from freemasonry , they would have to approach a deep study of it in an unbiased sense ....while looking beyond the Illuminati corruption and also possessing a very keen discernment between "made up truth " and what's really true .
The thing that amazes me. Is that nothing you have revealed in your videos has been responsible for my decision to leave the church. These things all bothered me all along. I was told that when I became educated and had studied enough. Became more active in the temple. I would see that it was the devil deceiving me. Well I am nearly 60 and have been in the process of leaving for 10 years. My wife is filing for divorce, finally after threatening it for a decade. Now anything that was keeping me has been terminated. There are half a dozen attorneys in our stake. Who have offered to screw me in court for free. Two of whom have been my close friends for 30 years. This was the straw that broke my heart and opened my eyes.
I'm so sorry to hear your story and what you're currently going through. I will be praying for you! Mormonism has deceived so many and my prayer is that you won't give up on God but will seek the true God through Biblical Christianity. The end of Mormonism does not have to lead to hopelessness and Atheism. I understand that me saying this while you are entering a potential divorce may be the last thing you want to hear. But your eternal soul matters. And so I will pray for you and will be here if you ever want to talk. Your life isn't over. You are precious to God and He wants you to be saved through Biblical Salvation. Sometimes when everything falls apart and seems hopeless, God is the only One Who can fill the void with His love, peace and hope. I am so sorry for your pain and your difficult journey. 🙏
Jesus said, "Follow Me." Jesus is the good Shepherd. Jesus will never let you down.
John 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; 28 and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.

Oh, the rituals go back to Solomon’s time, alright. They just come from the other side of the road.
@@J G What you forgot - or do not seem to realize - Solomon build the Temple - He was NOT the High Priest The Priestly Clan of the Tribe of Judah continued the service and rituals - So King Solomon's apostasy is completely irrelevant in this context.
And yes - if you do your research properly you will find that from the 4th degree upwards, virtually every degree in the Scottish Rite reflects a important period or event in the history of the Temple
yep satan.
@J G Friend - your quote is quite right and literal -
But do you abandon your church if the builder becomes immoral ? Solomon was not the High Priest, and held no position in the priesthood - he had God's temple build according to the measurements God dictated (and that you find to this day in the ground plan of Rossylyn Cathedral, Chartres and virtually all European cathedrals - Must those churches congregations also abandon their churches -
Some logic friend ?

Thankyou Jessie, you just clarified that I did make the right move leaving the church, and getting baptised in a Christian church. It helps me to know that I'm not alone in this. Thankyou again, God bless you 💖.
He didn't imagine it, using that stone is called divination, which is witchcraft. He really saw all these things and that's what is so scary, that the devil really does mascaraed himself as an angel of light!
If you think the free masons are bad, think how hard it would be to deal with the EXPENSIVE masons!
When I went to the temple for the first time in 1981, I asked the stake president about the similarities in the endowment and the Masons. He claimed that the Masons stole it all from joseph smith. What a crock! So glad I resigned last year! Keep up your great work, Jessie!
It's the direct opposite. Luciferian Satanist Smith took it all from Masons and luciferians and occultism and all his own Wicked imagination what and devilry galore.
That's hilarious.😂
Thanks for the great video, I grew up in the Mormon church, we were always taught that there were no images of the cross in the churches because we were supposed to focus on the resurrection, not the crucifixion. But never an explanation of using an inverted pentagram?
@@biblesforbreakfast I have to agree with the Mormons on this one, I've always found the focus on the cross to be disgusting at best.
@@Newlife2100 it's a symbol reminding us what He did for us..the sacrifice and the love. why is that disgusting?
the cross is where Jesus defeated death the rock in the garden is where he bleed and took all the sin of the world
if you study the history of symbols, you will find that just because satanism RECENTLY hijacked a symbol, does not mean it did not have a righteous meaning initially. Anymore than say, gay marriage is the real version of marriage, its a counterfeit, and those who created it HIJACKED the true biblical teaching of marriage as found in Genesis.
Supposedly, the spires are phallic symbolism. Look up Luciferian and occult symbols. Why would church leaders advocate their flock take the experimental “vaccine” jab? Are they doctors or part of NWO?
I have been asked to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.... I said that I wasn't ready yet. The other day for the Baptism in February and said that I will when I get to know the Book of Mormon better.
With this mew news I have stopped reading the Book of Mormon .
Thank you for this new info. God bless you.
"I have been asked to be baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints"
This is standard mormon missionary practice, to rush people into baptism. They are highly pressured sales led people with targets and quotas to achieve. The missionaries themselves are manipulated and deceived as much as the people they are misleading.
Missionaries are always being set baptism targets to aim for. They might as well be selling vacuum cleaners. Same sales techniques.
Glad you ha e decided to study thus out befire making that decision. I was a member for 40 years and attended the temple and have left the church when I found these things out. There is so much more information out there too. You can even check out my page if you have time as well. Take care!
I read the book of Mormon because of a friend had asked me to and i sead i would, so i did, just to see what the book had to say, but after i read it they wished i hadn't. it turns out the book of Mormon sounds close to Christian but IS IN OPPOSITION to the bible, and to the DOCTRINE AND COVENANTS, AND TO THE PEARL OF GREAT PRICE, They all contradict each other.
However no one in the mormon religon could ever lie to me again,
It turnes out after i started to refute what was being sead from there own DOCTRINE I was told by that person that had told me she knew it was true, and to read it, had never even read the book, A temple going mormon. How could you know any book is true if you haven't even read it? Now you got me started, and i did not stop all the teachings of the prophets all church history, teaching manuals, and many other books by there own prophets.
I found it to be a mess, using each others statements to make there own point and misquoting there own books and previous prophets, a mixed up pile of mess. And the temple going lady that knows it is TRUE, hasent even read the first Book, the book of Mormon.
If you know you're BIBLE well you should read the book of Mormon, it showes how DELUSIONAL Joseph Smith really was, the book even contradicts itSelf in itself.
Crazy.
I had told the 2 Sisters about Galatians and 1st Corinthians how that I would be reading another Book that is not the truth to the Holy Bible and they said " where did I get that from and did my Pastor tell me to tell them them about those two books and different chapters.
Thought I was going to lose my head from those passages.
They went on to say the Holy Bible ihas holes in it and that's where the Book of Mormon fills in the holes to make the Holy Bible full. I even asked why the Book of Mormon was printed 2 or 3 times with fixes in the Book. They came up with another excuse.
Don't do it
The inverted pentagram also means mans head is pointed twards the earth not heaven, if you can imagine the star being the head, arms, and legs of man. This means materalism instead of spiritual things, which is why there are works in this religion.
Jennifer Flower wrong the pentagram is as above so below and if it’s pointed up meaning it means higher consciousness of spiritual mind and the pointed start pointing down is the materialistic mind idiots I learned this In masonry.
A connection between the "inverted pentagram" and Satan "is almost certainly a 19th century invention by Eliphas Levi," who was a "defrocked priest." He did not begin publishing references to this idea until 1854, a decade after the death of the Prophet Joseph Smith.
@@mrnirom5107 Yes, freemasonry seems to have started a good organization; only in the mid-1800's did it become involved with the illuminati. That's why many great individuals were masons in the beginning.
i just came across this video and i must say, bravo. I was raised in the church and never felt right with any of it despite going to the temple and doing the work. I eventually just stopped going all together and don't talk to anyone from church except for my mom. This confirms my suspicions as a kid about something being off about the whole thing,
Same with me being born into Roman Catholicism. Always felt something was off as a kid. The Lord Jesus Christ set me free 2 years ago and I’m now a born again follower of His. Praise the Lord!
Thank you for these videos!
I just moved to Provo, without any real prior knowledge about Mormonism...this is some scary stuff...it's been near impossible to make friends here, weirdest place I've ever lived
Oh wow, Provo is Mormon central. There's a really great church not far from you called "Ridgeline" and I know the pastor and some members. If you're looking for a Biblical Christian community, that would be a good place to start. 😊
Mormons are not satanist. This woman is regurgitate all the anti Mormon literature she just read. Look into the history of symbolism and then watch “Meet the Mormons” it’s free on TH-cam. And then watch “Love Kennedy” on Amazon Prime. How can a person who “worships satan” talk non stop about how great Jesus is! Also, Mormons don’t drink or do drugs so if that is what you are into, you won’t make many friends. They always do things that are related to church. So it would be difficult to make friends if they are always do church activities.

Finding out that Joseph Smith and his family practiced black magic was the final thing that pushed me to resign from the church. I went to temple square last summer, for the first time since I left Mormonism, and I couldn't believe (with my new Christian eyes) the satanic symbolism that I found. I re-visited the Visitor's Center, where I (as a Mormon) would meditate by the huge Christos statue. I quickly discovered dozens of the inverted stars (satan's symbol) etched in the wood cabinetry along the window. I was terribly disturbed and came to a realization that this church truly worships Lucifer. If you google Luciferian philosophy, you will find Mormon doctrine 101. Seriously, the Mormons praise Eve for her decision to listen to Satan. They talk about this in the temple, as well. They also believe Satan's lie that they will become gods one day. Mormons believe the plan that Satan presented to Eve in the garden. Christisn have a whole different perspective of what happened in Genisis. Thanks for doing these videos. I sure appreciate them. PS..... Mormon apologists will say that the inverted star has only recently been adopted by satanists as their symbol. That argument doesn't work for the major remodel of the Visitor's Center or the museum on temple square that are full of witchcraft symbolism. They could have easily removed those symbols during construction. And what's up with the dozens and dozens of statues all over temple square? It's idolatry!
This lady thinks she is so smart. I have watched a number of her videos, and they are full of errors. She simple does not understand what she is talking about. For example in "inverted star" in meant to be "the Morning Star," which is a symbol of Christ. He is "the Bright Morning star (look it up if you don't believe me). The early Latter-day Saints even had a newspaper the called "The Morning and Evening Star." She will also say that Mornings believe something by quoting one or two leaders in the church. Mormons only have to believe what has been canonized in the scriptures, anything else is that "leaders" opinion. If you have questions about what members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints believe please ask them. Mormon missionaries are young and may not understand everything themselves, so they are not a fully proof source. I have been a active member for 48 years having read and taught from hundreds of books about the Church. This young lady is "twisting" the teachings of our church into a negative light. Jessie I invite you to look into what you are teaching a little more. The above example is not an over exaggeration of what you are doing the the LDS Churches beliefs, you simple know not what you are saying! You are also bring in your own world view and telling us Mormons what we believe. I sit here listing and having to "that's not true" over and over.
agreed. masonry is thinly veiled satanism and mormonism is thinly veiled masonry. that's why i don't think it's neccessary to get into the symbolism of it. what they admit to openly is bad enough. there is no hell, just 3 degrees of glory, no need for a saviour, because no hell, no basic sin nature, just mistakes you repent of, then go on to pursue godhood. when you die you will populate earths with all your wives and you will be a god to all those people on all those earths. they believe the first lie of satan, you will not surely die, you will become as god.
@@longnamenocansayy Freemasonry has nothing to do with Satanism, provide some evidence for your claim.
@@doctorandrose1 The "morning star" is a title given to Satan in his role as Lucifer. The term was derived from a Biblical passage which identifies a Babyloniangod named for that star as having fallen from the throne of heaven for his arrogance. This story was conflated with the story of the fall of Satan and 1/3 of the angels, especially because most pagan gods are considered aspects of Satan in Christianity.
The "morning star" is also a nickname for the planet Venus, which was called Lucifer in Roman astronomy. Its low position in the sky (due to its proximity to the sun) likely gave rise to the myth of it having fallen from heaven. In ancient times, the planet was considered to be the god of the dawn who opened the gates of heaven for the sun to pass through.
The morning star is bright today.
Lucifer was once the bright morning star, but fell from the favour of God.
by Lesath February 16, 2008
This is wikipedia's definition Lucifer (/ˈluːsɪfər/ LEW-si-fər; "light-bringer") was a Latin name for the planet Venus as the morning star in the ancient Roman era, and is often used for mythological and religious figures associated with the planet. Due to the unique movements and discontinuous appearances of Venus in the sky, mythology surrounding these figures often involved a fall from the heavens to earth or the underworld. Interpretations of a similar term in the Hebrew Bible, translated in the King James Version as "Lucifer", led to a Christian tradition of applying the name Lucifer and its associated stories of a fall from heaven to Satan. Most modern scholarship regards these interpretations as questionable, and translates the term in the relevant Bible passage (Isaiah 14:12) as "morning star" or "shining one" rather than as a proper name, "Lucifer".[1]
As a name for the devil, the more common meaning in English, "Lucifer" is the rendering of the Hebrew word הֵילֵל in Isaiah(Isaiah 14:12) given in the King James Version of the Bible. The translators of this version took the word from the LatinVulgate,[2] which translated הֵילֵל by the Latin word lucifer (uncapitalized),[3][4] meaning "the morning star, the planet Venus", or, as an adjective, "light-bringing".[5]
As a name for the morning star, "Lucifer" is a proper name and is capitalized in English. In Greco-Roman civilization the morning star was often personified and considered a god[6]and in some versions considered a son of Aurora (the Dawn).[7]
I was a member (processing out) and I had no idea about this but the symbols of suns/moons stars made me uncomfortable and uneasy.
I really didn't know the stars were upsidedown and that there were satanic pentagrams and inverted stars. This makes me sick to my stomach.
God help us and all who need the truth! We have to be patient with ourselves and others who still believe in Mormonism... its cult thinking and deep psychological abuse is profound and many can't see their way through it :(
Thank you for your videos. I just happened upon this tonight. Leaving Mormonism is a hard thing. IT is filled with brainwashing, fear mongering, and so much abuse. It's painful on many levels but I am grateful for Jesus Christ and Love Him.
There is a documentary series on Netflix called “Freemasonry.” It’s obvious JS brought the same rituals into his “church”.
Oh interesting!!
Ah Beverly.... you are wrong... it is not the same rituals. Any person who really does their homework would know it was only a few. But that is where Joseph Smith got the idea on HOW he was to present the endowment to the Saints. He needed a way to present it. And having been the Chaplain... he watched the rituals... and saw how when presented in same like manner that the Freemasons did.... the endowment could easily be taught and remembered.
Thanks to the Freemasons for the enlightened method of teaching!!
@@itsmejessie And to you.... who seems to be really having some fun mocking the Lord's Church.
I was told to teach you something I learned a long time ago concerning the Lord's doctrine and how it is taught.
This lesson came from the Chief Apostle... Peter. This is the Apostle that received the direct REVELATION from the Father... concerning the Son. (By the way... they are not triune... they are separate and distinct individuals and are not made of the same essence.)
The Father taught Peter that Jesus... was the Christ... and the Son of the living God.
And immediately afterward told Peter... that upon this rock... Which Jessie... is the rock of REVELATION... he would build his church upon... and he said that gates of Hell could not prevail against it.
Now think about that. As long as the Church was receiving REVELATION... they would know that Satan's doctrine could never be introduced into the Church. But if the Church was not receiving REVELATION... then guess what? The gates of Hell could prevail against it.
And that holds true today. There is no other Church upon the planet earth that receives REVELATION from God like the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. And neither you nor Satan... will prevail against it.
Ah... but I digress. I was instructed to let you know how Peter taught that doctrine should be taught in the Church.
And by the way Jessie... you can find this in what is called the Recognitions.
"The teaching of all doctrine,"
says the Apostle Peter,
"has a certain order,
and there are some things
which must be delivered first,
others in the second place,
and others in the third,
and so all in their order;
and if these things be delivered in their order,
they become plain;
but if they be brought forward out of order,
they will seem to be spoken against reason."
That is why he rebuked the youthful Clement
for wanting to know everything ahead of time.
Your teaching methods you are teaching are in direct contrast to what Peter taught. And in doing so... you are preventing God's children from hearing the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.
And the day will come in the not to far distant future... that what you have been teaching... is not the correct order for teaching. And when you find out that this is the Lord's true Church upon the earth... You are going to feel so foolish and so sad for your part in leading people away.
I said what I was told to say.
@@mrnirom5107 What you were *told* to say? Who instructed you to write all of that? You get paid to defend Mormonism through TH-cam comments?
@@mrnirom5107 The Gates of Hell will not prevail against the BIBLE, which is the Word of God. That includes the lies and fallacies and false teachings of the LDS Church. Though the LDS doctrine is straight from Hell, it will never prevail against the true Word of God.
She's right at the end of her video that the cross is a very important symbol of Christian belief, but so is the oft painted scene of the risen Lord Jesus Christ emerging from his tomb after his resurrection. For early Christians the sign of the "Fish" was the symbol they often made to acknowledge each other as Christians, as followers of the Jesus Christ who fed thousands with a few fish and a few loaves of bread and the Messiah who told Peter he'd make him a fisher of men. Also the symbols of the Nativity are Christian symbols that are common among Christians including Latter-day Saints. That idea of Jesus emerging from his tomb as a resurrected being, an Easter symbol, is a symbol of Christ's defeat of Satan, his defeat of mortal death as the son of God, his redeeming defeat of sin. I believe that's the symbol LDS people more often look to as they relate to Jesus Christ than the cross where the enemies of Christ made him suffer.
“Unfortunately, I had to read a lot...” MORE POWER TO YOU, LADY. GOD BLESS.
You’d be so surprised how many Mormons still ignore the red flags after seeing all this truth. They truly need prayers and more Christians boldly and lovingly share the Biblical gospel with them.
they ignore it because they have nothing to replace it with. not everyone that has christianity preached to them accepts it.
But Jessie, the Freemasons claim to go way back to the Stone Masons Guild and also have roots with the Knights Templar too, which combined together in the Middle Ages. The official Freemason lodges didn't appear publicly until the early 1700s.
I find the similarities between the production of the Book of Mormon and Aleister Crowley's Liber AL vel Legis very fascinating!
Uuhhhh ohhhh youre on to something buddy.
Woah. This says it all. Ive actually recently turned down meeting with some missionaries. Best decision Ive made in a long time
I was told by Chad Swans 32nd degree Mason from Dallas the prayers said in the mormon temple are verbatim to masonry. I pose the question: if masonry is so helpful to humanity, why is it kept secret.
@Free Mason Blood Sacrifice I wouldn't take any notice of Swanns. He's a con man.
In Freemasonry we say a prayer at the start and end of the meeting and one of there is a Candidate for a Degree ceremony. Here's the one we use at the start.
"Let us invoke the assistance of the Great Architect of the Universe in all our undertakings; may our labours, thus begun in order, be conducted in peace, and closed in harmony".
Now, I don't know what prayers are said in a Mormon temple, but I'm pretty sure they aint that!
You ask why Masonry is kept secret. The fact is...it isn't! Anti-Masons always claim it is... but then, they would, wouldn't they? Some very minor points....less than 0.1% are kept confidential. I can tell you why but it's a little long winded. If you want to know, ask me.
Most Masonic Halls have open days where you can see for yourself a Lodge room and talk to Masons. You can ask them (or me) ANYTHING you like about it and I'd be glad to tell you what you want to know.
The realist my email is freemasonbloodysacrifices@gmail.com
As far as Chad Swans is concerned I view him as a good husband, father, and creation of God. Is he perfect? Of course not. But I spoke to him and for the most part he is forthright and sincere. At times he came across a little defensive but I would have too had the tables been turned. I like Swans. Both the majestic birds and Chad. I just have some issues with masons that need to be ironed out or squared away.
Thanks for giving the devil his due Jessie. The LDS should do the same. Ingratitude is unbecoming of people who don such wholesome apparel on the Sabbath.
I was raised LDS. I can honestly say my introduction to the occult started there for sure.
Haha, me too! Although, it helps that my mother is a literal witch (#onlynonmormoninthefamily)

May God Keep On Blessing You Jessie!! Our Lord and Savior is Soooo Good ✝️🙏☝️🙌🌟💗!! I met 2 Mormon boys on their Mission 3 weeks ago and God has decided to put me in their path again next week to meet up so I can plant the seed and God Will sow. I Thank The Lord for you because now I am more educated than I was before about the Mormon Cult. My Dad was Mormon until he was 20 years old and I still have family that are Mormon.
When I openly challenged my mom in a conversation about this, she went on to say "I had a premonition that you were going to struggle and have difficulty in life." That hurt. I still love my family, but my understanding of God has been evolutionary for me the longer I have been away from the LDS church. The coffee pasta that Joseph Smith did was genius and "Inspired" as LDS members might say. The modern LDS church knowingly has swept a lot of the crazy times, stories, and truth of the development of the early church under the rug.
Wow! This is really telling, thank you for sharing. I’ll be sure to steer clear of the LDS religion.
Thanks Jessie.....ur so well informed and knowledgeable after I left the church I too investigated the history of the church....thankfully I have found a Christian Church.....it's so sad that alot of ex mormons have not found a true Christian church
A lot of similarities with JW’s with regards to occult too.
I just hope you read up on some history rather than the trust a TH-camr who only read anti Mormon literature with no history on religion in general
www.quora.com/Why-do-Latter-day-Saints-Mormons-have-pentagrams-and-the-all-seeing-eye-on-their-temples
KT Rainbow thanks, I can relate to this TH-camr for the similarities I’ve noticed from cults and other mind control groups. I was formerly identified as a JW. The example link you shared to enlighten me of a history lesson, is probably a glimpse towards your future; a waste of precious life as a critical and free thinker.
@@freecardoso lol wow! But you'll waste your time listing to this person. Guess your a critical listener than a critical thinker. But hey, it's your precious time to waste. Just remember knowledge is power. If you wish to learn about a religion, you read their sacred texts, you don't get an ex taoist or ex Jew to give you the accurate information about that religion, you go to the source and read that. But since you are too lazy to do that, you keep listening to those with no real insight to what the Church of Jesus Christ believes and only approving if it aligns with your preconceived notions of what you think Mormons are and what they believe. This woman quotes the Salamander Letter. I have read the Bible, the quoran, that Book of Mormon, and the Catholic Bible, all of which have lead me to the conclusion that all religion has some truth, but the testimonies of Jesus Christ, in the Book of Mormon made my heart sing. Do you believe in Jesus Christ? If so, what is the harm in reading a book that could lead you closer to Christ? As you say, your time is precious, what will you do with your time?
@Narrow Path wow! Are you Christian? Do you believe that Jesus Christ is your Lord and Savior? If the answer you have are "yes" to both, you maybe a "coward" and an evil devil worshiper because ALL mainstream "Mormons" or members of the Church of JESUS CHRIST believe that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior and that is why we call ourselves "Christians." As for the 5 point star, here is some information on that subject. I know it's hard for you to look outside of your preconceived notions of a religion you only learned about by reading anti mormon literature or by your pastor or Priest, but have you actually considered READING The Book of Mormon? I mean, I've had my own doubts about Islam when we first went to war with Afghanistan and Iraq, but then I read the Koran and realized that the religion was a cult. What makes it a cult? Well, in the Koran, it states you should KILL anyone (child or not) who leaves the religion. I have NEVER found a chapter in the Book of Mormon or Doctrine and Covenants that requires anyone who wants to leave the religion to then be disposed of. In fact, the religions doctrine of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints places a lot of emphasize on freedom of choice. That Lucifer wants to take away freedom of choice. That's contradictory, am I right? Anyway, back to symbolism.
Though the inverted star has been viewed as an evil omen by the world in more recent years, the inverted pointed stars found on LDS temples have special, spiritual significance. Particularly on the Nauvoo Temple. We learn from Sacred Walls that
"The inverted star above [the sun bursting forth from the three cloud-veils], pointing to the sun, is the morning and evening star, the first and last star to appear in the sky at daybreak and dawn, a symbol of Christ (see Revelation 2:28; 22:16). It is literally the planet Venus, which reflects the light of the sun, just as Christ points the way to and reflects the light of the Father.
"The stained-glass windows with the inverted pointed stars surrounded by the twelve stones also represent Christ as the central focus for all of Israel, just as the tabernacle of Moses, positioned at the center of the camp of Israel, surrounded by the tents to the twelve tribes on all sides, also signified the centrality of God (see Numbers 2:1-34)."
Venus, or the "Morning Star," used to be commonly represented by the inverted star, and was associated with the coming of Jesus Christ or the downward flow of revelation.
The Fair Mormon website adds:
"In 1985 LDS Church Architect Emil B. Fetzer stated that the inverted stars on early LDS temples were not sinister but were “symbolic of Christ.” He said that when the LDS Church “uses the pentagram or sunstone in an admirable, wholesome and uplifting context, this does not preclude another organization’s using the same symbols in an evil context.”
A subset of the inverted star is the five-pointed star with an elongated bottom ray. In Understanding Temple Symbols, author Jack Lyon explains the extra significance of this star variation.
"During the construction of the Logan Utah Temple, a newspaper reported that the five-pointed star with an elongated bottom ray symbolized 'the Star of the Morning,' which is a title of the Lord (Deseret Evening News, August 20, 1880, 3; see Revelation 22:16). Again the elongated bottom ray pointing downward indicates that the Savior has descended from heaven to earth" (pg. 125).

@Narrow Path you really have no idea of what you speak of, and I find that sad. Why not spend your time reading other religious texts? Maybe you just might find that we aren't Satanic worshippers. Maybe you might even find some commonality in Christianity and "Mormons." Like that we both believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins and that we follow the old tithing law of the Old Testament and pay 10% of ALL of our earnings to the church (or to Jesus Christ's Church). How many Christians do you know pay a FULL tithe offering? And I don't want to hear excuses of "well I would if I could. I can barely pay my own bills to live on." But they then purchase 10 packs of cigarettes and 6 bottles of wine for the week and 25 lottery tickets. Or better yet, they spend $65+ on television!! That always bothered me. How are you saying you can't pay your tithing and yet turn around and pay almost $100 on cable TV? I'd rather pay an offering (like tithing) to God than to a false God called "TV." Perhaps you can explain that one to me. Why do "Christians" who do not pay tithing claim to not be satanic devil worshippers but refuse to tithe to God but give their money instead to liquor, tobacco, and cable?
I left the Mormon church and have become a born again Christian. I’ve done my own research as well and everything you have shared is the truth. Thank you for sharing. The Mormon church is a cult led by a demon spirit. When I first went through the temple ceremony, I felt sick to my stomach and confused. But I shrugged it off. As a result of that experience, I always hated going. I am so glad I am out now and have found the true Grace of Christ.
Were you able to get your records out of the church? I am scared of getting them out and I can’t have a peace of mind knowing that my records are still there. If you did, what was the process like? Thank you!!
Thank you for taking the time to share this. Very helpful as I’m just now learning what the LDS church believes and has written in the texts they adhere to.
I always just thought Joseph Smith wrote these thing out of vain imagination. Until….
I began reading the Book of Mormon.
Now, I am pretty strongly convinced that he really did have an encounter with an elohim (angel) and right in the first pages I can clearly identify who that particular elohim was (hint: he fell from Heaven like lightning).
Also, the name “Nephi”…. IMMEDIATELY Holy Spirit called to mind Genesis 6 passages.
Yes, Satan disguises himself as an angel of light... and I truly believe that Joseph Smith lived under a stronghold of the enemy. Joseph also taught that we will become like God... who else said this in the Bible? The serpent in the garden!
i think mormonism is very interesting.
the book of mormon is very interesting because it contains not one distinctive mormon belief.
baptism, baptism for the dead, polytheism, polygamy, the prophet, etc.etc. none of it's there. yet you hear mormons testifying up a blue streak to its truthfulness.
i guess it shows how demonically oppressed they are. either that or they're so blind stupid they don't even know what they're saying.
we don't know where the book came from. i think his mother wrote a lot of it. his older brother alvin was supposed to be the prophet, but he died.
but a prophet still came (joseph) and i think his mother had quite a lot to do with early church machinations.
Temple symbolism has bothered me for a long time; I am glad to have found more info on this, I am a Mormon that is becoming inactive. I have been a convert for 48 years and my social circle is primarily limited to members. Being in my 86th year there not much point in making a big deal publicly so I follow my conscious and spiritual promptings. I believe that the church has digressed during the almost 50 years that I have been associated with it. Heavenly Father does not penalize for honest mistakes, so I am not concerned about having my name removed and the church did provide a lot of support to me as far encouraging me to get my life straightened out. I fully support the doctrine of latter day revelation even though I have lost my faith in much of the writings that the church declares to be such.
if you're 86 i certainly won't preach to you.
but i think you may agree with me, that it is only prudent to add moderation in all things.
and i think you'll agree that most people earnestly pray seeking that personal inspiration and relationship with their god.
and i think you will agree, at your age, an 86 year old needs a grand poo bah prophet to tell him about life, like a fish needs a bicycle.
@@longnamenocansayy I am not sure that most people pray seeking a personal relationship with their creator. Generally we have been indoctrinated that we pray to alleviate the consequences of our errors. Most people have not been taught that they are really a spiritual being in a material body to interact with the environment here on earth. From the time that we are born we are prodded to fill our minds with worldly ambition to succeed in this life with out a lot of regard for our spiritual life. Just my thoughts.
@@thomasmartin3343 people pray out of necessity. they say there are no atheists in a foxhole.
The first time I went through the temple, I thought "This is BS!" I kept my opinion to myself.. It's an "emporer with no clothes" type thing. Later, I read about Smith and realized what he did. This and numerous other things was an enlightening moment. I haven't believed any of it for years now.
Had I ever visited the temple, I would have been creeped the heck out! I've heard that many Mormons are super disturbed by the temple but they just don't know what to do or say so they keep it to themselves.
@@itsmejessie The temple sealed the deal for me that I had to get out, creepiest thing I had ever been through. I also think the young missionaries misrepresent the church in their lessons. I was shocked to learn the real beliefs of the church after I had joined. I am now back in the Methodist church where I belong.
She accomplishes two things: (a) casting doubt on much of the theology of Mormonism, and (b) casting doubt on her own understanding of Christianity, and revealing the weaknesses commonly found in the "born again" Bible thumpers in America. Joseph Smith took shots at the religions of the day partly because they were so amazingly vulnerable to that criticism. She's misleading people when she reveals some of her ignorance regarding "Mormonism."
No shes well informed you havent been paying attention to the video dude
Jessie, this is your spiritual gift of presenting investigative examinations of cleverly obscured falsehoods of the Joseph Smith & his false religion. Would like to see you take on the false religion of the Jehovah Witness & Seventh Day Adventists. Your presentation style is done with sincere concern & not scorn.
Wow... That was one hell of a black pill... I see Google put their stamp of approval on this vid about Freemasonry. Having studied a great deal of occultism over the last few years I know about all of these symbols and The Vigilant Citizen has a page dedicated to the Salt Lake Temple and the occult symbology crafted onto it. But even having a limited knowledge of these things did not prepare me for the rest of your message. I say again, how are so many people being deceived by this?
Thank you for doing these videos! I was born and raised in the Mormon church and did not know any of these things until June of last year. Most members do not know anything about the true history. I was married in the temple, thought it was so bizarre, but did everything that was expected of me. 20 years later my husband and three children are out of this cult! I’ve watched all of your videos and can attest that you are putting out truth! I’m no longer religious, but want to support you! And my “new name” was Lucy. Haha so silly. There’s a website that list all the names they use on which days and years. So anyone can know your name if they know the day/year you went through for the first time. Much love to you❤️ ❤️
Thank you for the support and for following my TH-cam journey. I appreciate your comment!
Of course, by now, you know that I just can't stand to see exMormons leave the church and not find the real Jesus so... I will be praying for you! 🙂 That you will one day come to know how real God is and that your life would be transformed with the hope a life with Christ brings. 😊 God bless!

I’ve been sharing many of your videos to my Mormon “ friends” Just this last Sunday after the general conference I got the first “ Rise” from one of these ladies.. saying my behavior was disrespectful and unacceptable, When church history & the holy Bible is considered Anti-Mormon you know something is wrong, What’s disrespectful is how they lure people in with the name of Jesus Christ, Yes many are deceived however when the refuse the truth and “ trust” their feelings over facts you know it is the occult spirit that they feel.. She couldn’t or wouldn’t answer a single question I asked about her beliefs, I’ve come to realize they Are very Worldly following the ways of the world focus on money and wanting the world to love them, I continue to pray for them, It’s upsetting to hear /see them saying how much they love God the Father & Jesus Christ, but ignore the Facts that they are worshiping a different god & Jesus, let’s not forget they call Lucifer their brother.. Ironically the woman who was upset, the same day changed her profile picture of her and her daughter dressed up as Witches
and sharing Memes with New Age teachings of Self Love, Self Discovery, Evolving and it being magical.. I try to warn her about witchcraft & the Occult because I was once involved in it seeking for healing and I can say being raised and surrounded by the LDS led me to Occult practices, The baptism & baptism for the dead Does not Save Have you Heard what Lori Daybell said about Her time in the Temple seeing spirits and communing with Angel Moroni? Then she got led into even more Occult New Age Beliefs thinking she was doing gods work by having demons killed that were her husband & her children 😢.. This is Soo horrible 😔
praise the lord you're out of the mormon church.
i know every breath of air since you've been out is like a cool breath of freedom.
it is a difficult thing to quit and not throw the baby out with the bath water. that's because mormonism mixes up good and bad and so many times people reject it all.
i was one of the lucky ones. i became a christian before the "ink was dry on my travelling papers".
I’ve yet to tell the Mormons I’ve met and we are like brothers but I grow up believing in the King James Bible and I’m a Christian!
That was fascinating and very interesting.
Thanks a lot!
Firstly, I wanted to say that it's completely obvious that you've done a lot of work behind the scenes to produce your videos, it's very much appreciated.
Prior to this I was not aware that other occult rituals have the purpose of helping the candidate/initiate attain godhood, I was only aware of it within Mormonism. From what I understand the Book of Mormon does not teach such "exaltation" or plurality of gods. My apologies if this was not your intention, but this video now has me wondering if the King Follett Discourse was in reality an attempt to bridge some of this massive theological gap being passed off as "divine revelation". I have recently seen some (I think a few years old) videos put out by the LDS church encouraging their members to come unto Christ. May your videos help people do exactly that - but the real Jesus Christ of course!
The LDS church is emphasizing Jesus Christ a lot more in recent years, to try to hang on to members and also hoping that other churches will accept them as Christian.
John Burns One of the LDS videos ironically says, "be perfected in Him," yet Mormons are constantly striving to be perfect through good works.
@John Burns, The Bible mentions the plurality of gods. Psalms 82:6. Are you claiming that the Bible LIED about the "plurality of gods"?
If you really believe that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a false Church, I invite you to refute a syllogism titled CHRIST'S TEACHINGS DEBUNK ANTI MORMONISM.
Surely if you have proof, that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is a false church, you would not hesitate to take advantage of the opportunity, to prove your claim, by using your profound knowledge of the Bible, to refute said logical argument.
Rejecting or ignoring my invitation would prove to all our readers, that you don't really believe that which you preach.
The Book of Mormon doesn't teach those things because Joseph Smith published it in 1830, when most of his doctrinal background came from his local Protestant churches. It was later in his life, after he had studied some unorthodox philosophies, that he came up with the exaltation and plurality of gods concepts. One particular source for him was Emmanuel Swedenborg. craigwmiller.tripod.com/interest.htm
@@randyjordan5521 says who? Please POST PROOF that Joseph Smith "later in his life studied some unorthodox philosophes like exaltation and the plurality of gods"?
No proof = lies.
A link proves nothing. If I post a link that claims that God does not exist, is that proof that God doesn't exist?
The only way to prove that Joseph Smith "later in life studied some unorthodox philosophes like exaltation and the plurality of gods" is IF he himself said that.
I have a Mormon place very near my house and I thought I knew their doctrines quite well, but a lot of her research is new to me.
Basil II Macedonia Because it is fictional
Like I’ve said before - you should write a book compiled with all these things so its easier for us when missionaries knock on our door. Make it a reference guide and include what you said in your video about how to witness to missionaries - very helpful.
If you read the Bible and then the first page of the Book of Mormon, you would know that the Book of Mormon is false.
The Bible states that the first siege of Jerusalem took place under King Jehoiachin in 597/598 BC.
II Kings 24:12
And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.
Then Zedekiah became king.
2 Kings 24:18
Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
According to the Book of Mormon, Lehi's warnings to Jerusalem happened in the first year of Zedekiah's reign, after the first deportation of king Jehoiachin..
Jerusalem had already been destroyed.
1 Nephi 1:4
For it came to pass in the commencement of the first year of the reign of Zedekiah, king of Judah, (my father, Lehi, having dwelt at Jerusalem in all his days); and in that same year there came many prophets, prophesying unto the people that they must repent, or the great city Jerusalem must be destroyed.
**********
Also, in I Nephi 1:2, the Jews are speaking and writing in the language of Egypt???
The author of the Book of Mormon evidently didn't realize that Jews would not speak or write in the language of Egypt, a nation that enslaved them and that the Jews despised.
Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians.
- 1 Nephi 1:2
For it were not possible that our father, Lehi, could have remembered all these things, to have taught them to his children, except it were for the help of these plates; for he having been taught in the language of the Egyptians therefore he could read these engravings, and teach them to his children, that thereby they could teach them to their children, and so fulfilling the commandments of God, even down to this present time.
- Mosiah 1:4
And now, behold, we have written this record according to our knowledge, in the characters which are called among us the reformed Egyptian, being handed down and altered by us, according to our manner of speech.
- Mormon 9:32
It's no wonder that Mormons are laughed at.
Such a sad story.

But the rules are random and conflict each other. And the people that don't believe it are free to ride on any trail they wish and without the training wheels hindering them or holding them back. And you're told that after you're done riding, if you followed the rules you'll get a prize that the people who didn't follow the rules won't get. But you are told you only get the prize once you leave, so no one there will ever know if you really got the prize or not.
Thank you 🙏 so much for educating us! My best friend is Mormon, and she’s not an ignorant lady. Once the brainwashing is done, there’s no convincing them otherwise. I pray for her all the time.😢❤❤❤
A woman was sitting in an abortion clinic waiting room, with her 2yr old
daughter on her lap. She was waiting on the doctor who came out and
walked towards her. He asked her if she was ready, and she nodded yes.
He reached down and took her 2yr old daughter from her lap turned, and
started walking away. The woman stood up reaching for her daughter,
distressed, asking the doctor what he was doing?! He turned back to look
at her, and answered; What difference does it make which one I kill?
Didn't Joseph claim to be attacked 3 times with the plates? Reminds me of the Mason character hiram abiff being attacked 3 times. Also the symbol of gold is very significant to alchamy witch freemasons also have aspects of. Gold being perfection and the object of attainment
Yes! Check out my Golden Plates video! I have lots of LDS videos on my channel where I go into detail and list many sources.
Exodus 21:20-21“And if a man beats his male or female servant with a rod, so
that he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished. Notwithstanding, if
he remains alive a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his
property.
Not necessarily trying to defend anything but the 5 pointed star represented Christ and it was above windows and doors .. during the summer, the star point up, during the winter the star pointed down . Look it up. The symbol of the upside down pentagram was not tied to the occult until fairly recent history.
As an atheist my best bet is that Joseph Smith confected a way to have many wives in a world where this was non-existant & not permitted. He is america's firrst Playboy & original ganster(if u ever hear that expression)
@WalkiTalkie - Friend are you not aware that quite a few other churches allow the Old Testamentical practice of polygamy ??. Latter day churches does not practice it due to federal and other modern legislation but as an ordained cleric I can not find a single text in scripture that forbids it. Here we as a community are putting on our modernists, liberal spectacles to interpret Biblical Script and voice social condemnation the bible never did. Read and search your Bible for yourself.
Hardly the first, but yes, very similar to more recent cult leaders who demanded sex with multiple women and young girls based on the will of God. Suuuuuper convenient.
Hi thank you for your videos. Just something for you to research: the whole concept of sacred groves or "Garden of gods" for worship is originally a Babylonian, neo-Sumerian, and pagan concept
That's irrelevant to this point huge hugely hugely hugely irrelevant here.
Jessie, what I’m finding is that the general public, as well as, LDS have no idea that Freemasonry is evil. We need in include info about the truth of Masory in our discussion with Mormons.
@Carrie B I refute the suggestion that Freemasonry is evil. Please tell me why you think it is.
@@TheRealist2022 Freemasonry, Eastern Star, and other similar "secret" organizations appear to be harmless fellowship gatherings. Many of them appear to promote belief in God. However, upon closer examination, we find that the only belief requirement is not that one must believe in the True and Living God, but rather, that one must believe in the existence of a “Supreme Being”, which includes the “gods” of Islam, Hinduism, or any other world religion. The unbiblical and anti-Christian beliefs and practices of this organization are partially hidden beneath an outward appearance of a supposed compatibility with the Christian faith.
Salvation from Sin:
The Bible’s View: Jesus became the sinner’s sacrifice before God when He shed His blood and died as the propitiation (payment) for the sins of all those who would ever believe (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 5:8, John 3:16).
Mason’s View: The very process of joining the Lodge requires Christians to ignore the exclusivity of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. According to Freemasonry, a person will be saved and go to heaven as a result of his good works and personal self-improvement.
The View of the Bible:
The Bible’s View: The supernatural and plenary inspiration of the Scriptures-that they are inerrant and that their teachings and authority are absolute, supreme, and final. The Bible is the Word of God (2 Timothy 3:16, 1 Thessalonians 2:13).
Mason’s View: The Bible is only one of several “Volume(s) of Sacred Law,” all of which are deemed to be equally important in Freemasonry. The Bible is an important book, only as far as those members who claim to be Christians are concerned, just as the Koran is important to Muslims. The Bible is not considered to be the exclusive Word of God, nor is it considered to be God’s sole revelation of himself to humankind; but only one of many religious sourcebooks. It is a good guide for morality. The Bible is used primarily as a symbol of God’s will, which can also be captured in other sacred texts, like the Koran or Rig Vedas.
The Doctrine of God:
The Bible’s View: There is one God. The various names of God refer to the God of Israel and reveal certain attributes of God. To worship other gods or to call upon other deities is idolatry (Exodus 20:3). Paul spoke of idolatry as a heinous sin (1 Corinthians 10:14) and John said that idolaters will perish in hell (Revelation 21:8).
Mason’s View: All members must believe in a deity. Different religions (Christianity, Judaism, Islam, etc.) acknowledge the same God, only call Him different names. Freemasonry invites people of all faiths, even if they use different names for the ‘Nameless One of a hundred names,’ they are yet praying to the one God and Father of all.
The Doctrine of Jesus and the Trinity:
The Bible’s View: Jesus was God in human form (Matthew 1:18-24, John 1:1). Jesus is the second person of the trinity (Matthew 28:19, Mark 1:9-11). While on earth, He was fully human (Mark 4:38, Matthew 4:2) and fully divine (John 20:28, John 1:1-2, Acts 4:10-12). Christians should pray in Jesus’ name and proclaim Him before others, regardless of offense to non-Christians (John 14:13-14, 1 John 2:23, Acts 4:18-20).
Mason’s View: There is no exclusivity in Jesus Christ or the Triune God who is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; therefore there is no doctrine of the deity of Jesus Christ. It is deemed to be un-Masonic to invoke the name of Jesus when praying, or mention His name in the Lodge. Suggesting that Jesus is the only way to God contradicts the principle of tolerance. The name of Jesus has been omitted from biblical verses that are used in Masonic rituals. Jesus is on the same level as other religious leaders.
Human Nature and Sin:
The Bible’s View: All humans are born with a sinful nature, are totally depraved, and need a Savior from sin (Romans 3:23, Romans 5:12, Psalm 51:5, Ephesians 2:1). The Bible denies that because of the Fall, humanity has within itself the capacity for moral perfection (1 John 1:8-10, Romans 1:18-25).
Mason’s View: Through symbols and emblems, Masons teach that man is not sinful, just “rude and imperfect by nature”. Human beings are able to improve their character and behavior in various ways, including acts of charity, moral living, and voluntary performance of civic duty. Humanity possesses the ability of moving from imperfection toward total perfection. Moral and spiritual perfection lies within men and women.
When a Christian takes the oath of Freemasonry, he is swearing to the following doctrines that God has pronounced false and sinful:
1. That salvation can be gained by man’s good works.
2. That Jesus is just one of many equally revered prophets.
3. That they will remain silent in the Lodge and not talk of Christ.
4. That they are approaching the Lodge in spiritual darkness and ignorance, when the Bible says Christians are already in the light, children of the light, and are indwelt by the Light of the World-Jesus Christ.
5. By demanding that Christians take the Masonic oath, Masonry leads Christians into blasphemy and taking the name of the Lord in vain.
6. Masonry teaches that its G.A.O.T.U. [Great Architect of the Universe], whom Masonry believes is the true God of the universe, is representative of all gods in all religions.
7. Masonry makes Christians take a universalist approach in their prayers, demanding a “generic” name be used so as not to offend non-believers who are Masonic “brothers”.
8. By swearing the Masonic oath and participating in the doctrines of the Lodge, Christians are perpetuating a false gospel to other Lodge members, who look only to Masonry’s plan of salvation to get to heaven. By their very membership in such a syncretistic type organization, they have severely compromised their witnessing as Christians.
9. By taking the Masonic obligation, the Christian is agreeing to allow the pollution of his mind, spirit, and body by those who serve false gods and believe false doctrines.
As you can see, Masonry denies and contradicts the clear teaching of Scripture on numerous issues. Masonry also requires people to engage in activities which the Bible condemns. As a result, a Christian should not be a member of any secret society or organization that has any connection with Freemasonry

@@fayelewis5476 Good morning Faye. Thank you for your very thorough response. I intend to correct a number of inaccuracies that you have made and which have led you come to the conclusions that you have. I'll copy and paste the sections of your post that are inaccurate and then counter them.
"Freemasonry, Eastern Star, and other similar "secret" organizations ".
Freemasonry is by no means a secret organisation. People often use this phrase in a pejorative manner. We are extremely open. This is illustrated by websites we have, jewellery we wear, community work we do, and of of course Masonic buildings are largely open the public. A fine example of which is the HQ of the worlds oldest Grand Lodge, The United Grand Lodge of England. This is a huge building in London, England just behind Covent Garden, with the name plastered all over it. It is open to the public and even runs free tours of the building, several times a day, most days of the year for EVERYONE.. not just Masons! Anyone can visit our shop and buy ritual books, regalia, publications, jewellery. Nobody in the shop checks that you're a Mason.. indeed many ladies visit the shop too, so to call us a secret organisation just untrue.
"Many of them appear to promote a belief in God"
This is also untrue.
We do not promote a belief in God, by whatever name he is called. It is a requirement to believe in one, but that's as far as it goes. Freemasonry is not a religious society, in that no religious activity or promotion of belief happens at a Lodge meeting. It has about as much to do with religion as membership of your local council!
"The unbiblical and anti-Christian beliefs and practices of this organization are partially hidden beneath an outward appearance of a supposed compatibility with the Christian faith".
As it is believed that Regular Freemasonry (as opposed to Irregular Freemasonry, which does exist and is anathema to us) traces it's roots from England/Scotland from the middle ages and those that were present then were all Christian. They lived their lives with a morality, stemming from Christian Values and valued the Holy Bible Greatly. Hence at ALL Masonic meetings, the Holy Bible MUST be opened. The holy book of all others present must be too. For example, if any Muslim Mason is present, the Koran must be open too. Freemasonry has "three great lights" in it.... the square and the compasses are two of them. Know what the other is? Correct!
This being the case, to call us "anti-blblical" is also a nonsense.
Of course, you are looking at Freemasonry from a Christian point of view. You feel it is important to promote your religion and that is absolutely fine. But where religion is irrelevant, your promotion of it is also irrelevant. In the promotion of ones religion, yes it is vitally important to dismiss the others and promote ones own... but as Freemasonry is not a religious organisation, the religion of the members is also unimportant. You think it is anti-Christian that we do not promote Christianity. But why should we promote this subject, when we have nothing to do with it? Do four men get on their knees and praise god before every hole they play on a golf course? No, of course they don't. Do you call THEM anti-christian? No, of course you don't. Why is that? They are carrying out an activity which has nothing to do wit praising god. The same is true of Freemasonry, so why do you complain about us?
Here's a great example of why Freemasonry has nothing to do with religion.
I have been a member of Freemasonry for over 20 years and am a Grand Officer in the United Grand Lodge of England. I believe that there is some sort of entity which created the universe. However, I do not believe in organised religion. I just don't buy it. I was raised Christian, but from the age of 14, realised that all religion, to me, makes no sense at all. And yet, Freemasonry accepts me for membership.... if we were a religious organisation, surely I wouldn't be accepted?
"Anti-Christian beliefs and practices of the organisation". I know of no practices or beliefs of Freemasonry in Freemasonry which are anti-Christian. Perhaps you cold tell me what these are, because I do not know of any. At this point, the person I am speaking to usually comes back with "you're not high enough to know". My answer is normally, "if I'm not high enough, how are YOU supposed to be"? but in any case, I am a 33rd Degree Freemason and would say that yes, I AM "high enough".
The rest of the post you made compares and contrasts the "differences" between the Bibles view and the Masons view. As we are no longer a Christian organisation, these comparisons are largely irrelevant. For example, how would a Muslim Mason, a Jewish Mason, a Buddhist Mason, or a Sikh Mason view your post?
You see, rather than create division in men, we create unity. Rather than excluding men based on their beliefs, we specify only one.. that there is a being responsible for creating the universe. We leave it up to the individual to decide the rest.
I have met and dined with Masons from all over the world. A Masonic meeting is the ONLY place in the WORLD where men who are traditional enemies meet as friends. I've been with Sunni and Shia, Protestant and Catholic and Arab and Jew. All meet as friends, free from the religion and politics that cause so much division in the world. Those two subjects (which are forbidden from being discussed in a Lodge meeting...further proof that we are not a religious organisation) are responsible for all the wars, hunger, strife and suffering that the human race has ever encountered.
To reiterate, you seem to be saying that as Masons we reject the idea of Jesus Christ. That is not true.. we just don't promote him. why would we promote him, if our organisation has nothing to do wit him? I don't go on and on about building model aeroplanes every day...does that mean that I reject it? Hardly!
@@TheRealist2022 Do you know for sure if you died today where you would spend eternity?
@@jlewis8145 No, I don't. I don't even know if there is life after death. I think, perhaps, it's just wishful thinking because humans cannot deal with the concept of nothingness.
I left the Mormon church years ago,I agree with you.
Sister Im very glad to hear from you because Im a Christian and i come across a mormon missionary
Nothing screams occult like telling your world-wide membership to love one another, live upright lives of integrity and follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.
It is occult. Joseph Smith was contacting the dead, (Peter, James, John, Elijah), a money digger, scrying, translating a book by sticking his head in a hat and staring at a seer stone, masonry, etc..
Dr. Reed Durham, former president of the Mormon History Association, and Professor of Religion at the University of Utah, in a 1974 lecture revealed that at the time of his death Joseph Smith was wearing what was formerly thought to have been a "Masonic jewel" was actually a "Jupiter talisman." This proves that Joseph Smith was engaged in occult practices until the end of his life in 1844.8 A talisman is an object engraved with astrological signs believed to have possessed power to avert evil and bring good luck. Such pieces are clearly identified with occult magic. This lecture, although true, brought the wrath of then President Spencer W. Kimball down upon Dr. Durham. The talisman is currently kept in the LDS Archives.
Joseph Smith forgot to put on his sacred underwear the day he died.
Satan is allowed in the LDS temples.
When Lucifer appears in the Mormon temple ceremony he is wearing an apron. When Adam asks him about it Lucifer boldly replies: “It is an emblem of my power and Priesthoods” (25:15). So, there is no ambiguity here-the apron has nothing to do with God; it is an emblem of Satan’s power and priesthoods. A few minutes later, when they hear God coming, Lucifer tells Adam and Eve to make themselves aprons and hide (25:45).
Adam replies, “Come, let us hide,” and at that point in the ceremony everyone is told to put on their aprons. And they do. So, for the rest of the ritual, on top of their temple undergarments with the masonic-type markings, and on top of their white temple clothes, temple patrons wear a dark green apron-in obedience to Lucifer and symbolizing his power and priesthoods.
This stands in stark contrast to what happens in the Bible: God removes the fig-leaf coverings that Adam and Eve make and replaces them with animal skins He provides. This foreshadows and represents the covering for sins provided by Jesus when he was slain on the cross as the Lamb of God (see John 1:29; Hebrews 9:22).
Mormons themselves hold in high honor a married man who got a 16 year old girl pregnant and then married her, married 15 women in one year alone, married two sets of sisters, two sets of a mother and her daughter, eleven women who were already married to other men and when the 12th woman rejected his advances and she and her husband printed out the truth of what was going on, Joseph Smith destroyed the printing press and the building.
Latter Day Saints call that a life of integrity and loving one another and following the teachings of Christ.
@@fayelewis5476 the apron is green. why is green a satanic color. it comes from nature, as when the satanists saw how copper will get a green patina. so copper is self corrupting, and green becomes the color of corruption. other reasons too. but it is of interest that the apron is green, and the apron the temple worker wears is covered with masonic symbols. hi faye, i'm always so glad to see your comments!
by the way you may not know what the masonic jewels are. all the tools of a masonry are used in freemasonry but with symbolic applications. thus the trowel is used to spread the felicity liberally that exists between brothers. square and compass trowel, 24 inch gauge, etc. are all the jewels of fremasonry.
Guess you don’t know much about the occult.. it’s very love bombing and positive “ energy “ they talk a lot about forgiveness work and healing they want to Love EVERYTHING plus they think that they are all gods & goddesses
She’s right the Utah temple does have the star wtf!
Not all stars are pentagrams. It does have a star but not a pentagram. Mormonism is fraud with major links to the occult, but it isn’t Satanic. Unless you define Satanism very, very broadly, to include all pagan or magical beliefs. Which I don’t think would be fair.
Thank you so much for putting the time to do these researches and sharing it with us. I appreciate your efforts and time with gratitude
Symptoms is a touchy matter. I tend to leave it's meaning to those that use that particular symbol.
The Jains in India are probably the most pacifist I know, going to extreme lengths so as not to harm an ant or mosquito, yet you find the swastikas in their teachings, as well as in Buddhism. Another of the world's peaceful religions. We all know too well what it happened when the Nazi's inverted it and used it as their symbol.
I fully agree with you however that Mormon and Masonic symbols are pretty much one and the same.
As for the cross, well, some see that as a symbol of the crucifixion, not Christ.
As always, thanks for your views!
Simply put, a cross showing Christ still on it is a symbol of the crucifixion of Christ, such as used within Catholicism, while a plain cross (obviously upright) is symbolic of Christ's resurrection and therefore a symbol fit for Christianity in its truest sense. The cross, like any symbol, isn't inherently idolatrous unless one begins to attribute power or worship to the symbol instead of that which the symbol was meant only to represent, which in this case is Christ's sacrifice in order that we may obtain salvation both with and through Him. One concrete example of using the cross in an idolatrous sense would be wearing it around the neck as a form of protection, as if the object itself holds some innate power, whereas wearing it as a reminder of one's faith, or as a display to others regarding where one stands in a spiritual sense, is an acceptable usage.
These "churches" needs to be shut down
THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU AND KEEP SHINING WITH THE TRUE AND REAL AND EXPOSING THE FALSE AND DECEITFUL!YOU ARE DOING WONDERFULLY 🌈 🌅
Good job, I subscribed. We need to expose more cult practices and share them with those who are under the spell of Mormonism.

Oh Mike Lud... and what is it to you... to be Christian?

@giuseppe mendoza I think it is much more that just being like Christ.
Very well done I have tried to tell people this . You did a much better job. But you better be resourceful and watch your back. Have a blessed life.
Believe me I lived in Utah.
As to her statement of the cross. There will be many that will get upset with me. Two things, #1: The term (wording) of the cross was added in the bible by Christian scribes. in the original and current Hebrew text and from the Greek the term (word) that was used was stake, pole or post (G4716). #2: When one digs, the symbol of the cross was used to symbolize Tamuz (the supposed son of Nimrod who became the sun god) and was worshiped as the son of god. In fact the Egyptians also the symbol of the cross in their form of the Ankh.
@@Raze120 The Lord Jesus Christ was put to death on a cross designed by pagans to torture and kill. He transformed the cross into a symbol of the triumph of God's love, by His faithfulness and mercy in dying for us to save us from death. He rose from the dead, and the cross became the sign of that triumph. God turned a shape into a sign of Jesus' victory.
Totally off topic but you remind me.of the 90s! Seem like a girl I would have been friends with!!😊 im so glad Jesus unites us. Its nice to see "NICE GIRLS"
Alot of girls these days just looking at them and listening to them I get unclean vibes.
There's something special and shiny about believers united through Jesus that just keeps me in awe and thanks.😊
God bless! May the Lord come quickly!! Maranatha!🙏✝️
If you haven’t watched Dan Vogel on TH-cam he does great research.
When you take your oath, you take your hand across your throat to indicate if broke then you understand the penalty is death, hence the knife slitting throat while swearing allegiance to the rite. Also the secret handshakes can communicate more than just hierarchy and rank and from which lodge, i hope i don't get found out! Lol
remember the scene in godfather 3. a man is found hanging by a cable tow under a bridge where the tide regularly ebbs and flows. and in the movie some money can be seen falling out of the man's pockets gone blowing in the wind.
the neat thing about the movie godfather 3 is that it's a cinematic representation of events that were occurring at that time. they really really really really found a man hanging by a cable tow under a bridge where the tide regularly ebbs and flows.
now you will say p2. it was p2. it was rome's p2. i say, it still happened and it was still masonic. but it is somewhat irrelevant. what is relevant you ask?
where is your heart is what matters. where is your heart? where is your heart before the one true god? is your heart right before the one true god. the christian god is the god of all life. you tell me your heart is right before god and you take blood oaths?

The Lord did truly say when he said, it's hard to kick against the pricks...
I had no idea about this crap. I grew up in a Mormon family, tried to convert in my 20s. And every time I went to church, I dreaded what malarkey I would hear each time I encountered these groups. I decided to not join and ever since, I've been stalked. They really are trying to take over. Character assassinations are a very real thing for them. If family were so important to them then why attack a whole family because the matriarch or patriarch of the family decided not to follow YOU!? laughable.This is the equivalent to Hitler and his regime. If you don't fit their mold, you dont belong in this world. Obviously they cant round you up but they can sure drive you insane and take any confidence you had.
This video is so wonderful and well researched!
Love your channel Jessie. I'm doing research on this very topic right now and this has been super helpful.
"Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints.
For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ."

Joseph Smith brought in these destructive heresies to the church, tainting the love and grace of our Lord with witchcraft. My heart hurts.

You are well researched Jessica, I was going to recommend the Book by Fawn Brody McKay no man knows my history,on my Journey out of Mormonism this was the first book I read,I went to the library in Phoenix and this book was the first one I pulled from the shelve! If every mormon had the opportunity to read this they wouldn't stay in the mormon church. Did you know that Fawn Brody McKay was the niece of the Mormon prophet David o Mckay,she found her way out of the mormon church too👏🌞
Jessie, I don’t know what to say to LDS folk when I have told them about these symbols, etc.....and they counter me with; “Oh, Satan takes what is holy and counterfeits it. These symbols on our Temples were originally used by God first.”
What proof can I use when they say this to me? I don’t know who used what first! But I know that the ONLY way that I have seen pentagrams, etc. used, is for evil. I don’t have a comeback response when they say this to me.
Symbology is not an easy subject to discuss with Mormons. I've heard the trite argument regarding the Cross: "Well if your mother was killed by an ax, would you wear the ax pendant around your neck?" The problem with this argument is that Christ had the victory on the Cross which paved the way for his resurrection and ascension. While accomplishing what he was specifically sent for. My "mother" did not. Mormons see the Cross as a sign of defeat/death. This assertion severely contradicts what the NT teaches. Satan was also cast out of heaven when Christ died on the Cross; hence Jesus the Victor. So I fail to see how the Cross resembles defeat/death if Jesus achieved his sole purpose. All this can be researched in the Bible.
@@prayingpatriot8018 Very intriguing claim that I've never heard before regarding Satan being cast out of Heaven at the time Christ died on the cross. Isaiah 14 discusses Lucifer being cast out of Heaven, as does the Book of Revelation, but they indicate it happened before the creation of the World. Also, how could the Devil tempt Adam and Eve in the Garden, if he was still in Heaven? If you could explain for me, that would be great, cheers mate!
@@goingtothetop55 Satan originally was cast out (Luke 10:18). Many scholars believed he lost access to the Father at some point in time of the death of Christ on the Cross. Solely because God cannot allow sin into Heaven (Isiah 6). This is what I meant to imply. Later, only to be bound in the abyss for 1,000 years (Rev. 20:10). In Job 1, speaks of Satan standing before God, to give his account, later thru the verses states Satan's powers were severely limited. Here are some other facts to note: 1) Satan does not have open access to God's presence. He is summoned by God. 2) The visits are temporary. His time before God's throne is limited. 3) In no way is the purity of heaven tainted by the brief, God-ordained presence of a sinful being, "quarantined," as it were, by God's regulatory power. And, 4) Satan's access is only granted prior to the final judgment. After the judgment, God creates a new heaven and new earth (Revelation 21:1), wipes away all tears from our eyes (verse 4), reveals the New Jerusalem (verse 10), and promises the complete absence of sin (verse 27).

@@NaomiSiemens or I can also?
I did a study on the "Rider Waite Tarot Deck." Arthur Edward Waite directed the artist Pamela Colman Smith, on the imagery of the cards.
Waite was a member of the Rosicrucian Order. Which started in an unknown time, recorded around 1450 to be 8 Doctors, that healed people for free. The order took off in ways, and founded the College of Invisibles, and had members of the best alchemists, astronomers, etc. King Charles ll made it a royal college.
Apparently, The Order inspired most masonic orders, that eventually branched out. Interesting to note, that it branched out into America, around the early 1800s around NY and PA.
Its based heavily on the alchemy of the soul, and astrology. Certain times of the year, when the planets were aligned in the perfect "Degrees" in relation, they would perform outward symbolic rituals to achieve the inner alchemized result. The ranks were dictated by time, seeing as the planets had to be located correctly. This is where the "Degrees" or rank of members comes from. (2nd degree mason etc.) I would not be surprised if blood rituals were involved.
The sects in America in the 1800s were usually only accessible to high ranking Christian ministers. Some were Masonic related, as an inner circle of Master Masons. ( Master Mason extra credit if you will.) I would not be surprised if Joe Smith was a part of this.
The teachings stem from Hermeticism, Kabbalah, Thoth of Egypt, Christ, and Tarot. Involving the ability to see the things that are to come and the inner workings of the invisible temple that we all inhabit.
Anyways. A subject worth studying, for someone interested in the evolution of cult organizations based around religion, esoteric development, history, and just straight curiosity.
Also interesting to note, that President Monson was a master mason, and most of the prophets have been. The rituals that Moses used in his Tent Temple while they were "wandering the wilderness for 40 years" are very similar to those in the Mormon temple, and the masons. (Which, Moses being educated in the royal family of Egypt, as well as by his Hebrew mother, would have constructed these from Thoth, as well as from Solomon.)
But, thank God that Jesus came to do away with the law of Moses. He condensed like 700 commandments into two, and died so that we can stop outwardly ritualizing our inner forgiveness process. (No more sacrifices, lining up the stars, whipping ourselves, digging through useless knowledge about which star that God lives on, adding books of "missing knowledge," and reintroducing outward covenants via special raiment and hats... wait..)
It is of my opinion, that anyone that promotes extra teachings, rituals, the law of Moses, Mandatory mouthpieces of God, secret combinations, cower from shame and light, and "comes in the name of Christ," Is ironically the Anti-Christ themselves. Its the most cunning and favorite disguise that Satan wears.
Galatians 3:24-26
"24 Therefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.
25 But when faith is come, we are no longer under the hand of the schoolmaster.
26 For ye are all sons of God by faith in Christ Jesus."
quite obviously j smith knew a lot about the occult. he was suppose to see the gold plates at the equinox 22 sept. there are two equinoxes every year and he mentions them both. the thricing visitation of angel moroni looks like a visitation of ghosts/spirits. thrice visited means especially locked in visitation. j smith was never christian. he milked christians and anyone for anything he could get money wise. he took martin harris for everything he had. then when there were a lot of dupes around in kirtland he took all their money in kirtland bank fraud. then in missouri he tried starting another fraud scheme and counterfeiting. it all came together in nauvoo with land speculation (buying city lots for $1 then selling them for $whatever) and being trustee in chief for everything that wasn't nailed down, including other men's wives. mormons are so deluded. the adulterer, murderer, thief, counterfeiter, con man j smith is touted as a prophet and a god and they sing praises to him. what a sad joke.
I have always remembered heaven from before I was born, I was shown my life before living it. And I kept this a secret my entire life, even kept it a secret from my parents and from the church even though being born into the church I always felt like this place would challenge or correct my memory in some way to say that it isn’t possible or because I am not a male that I could not have this power. I understood that telling people would result in the destruction of my memory. I don’t know if I stole information from heaven or if I fought through the veil or if God let me keep my memories. I’ve always felt ashamed for this but strangely fortunate.
It's Me Jessie Cardinal Newman said, "To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant." He was a famous Anglican convert who probably new more about Christianity than you and I put together. I agree totally about the corruption in the Catholic Church beginning with the “pope”. What you see as the Catholic Church today is not what the Catholic Church is, however there are those who hold to the True Catholic Faith. Much of the hierarchy has been infiltrated by freemasonry, look up Bella Dodd. Also there has been church approved prophecies of evil popes.
Letter of
Saint Athanasius to His Flock (4th Century A.D.)
"May God console you! ... What saddens you ... is the fact that others have occupied the churches by violence, while during this time you are on the outside. It is a fact that they have the premises --- but you have the Apostolic Faith. They can occupy our churches, but they are outside the true Faith. (Arian Hersey)
I could attack any Protestant religion on the conduct of its leaders or individuals but we both know that is a unreasonable approach to any debate or analysis. On the flip side no other faith has produced so many Heroic Saints and leaders, those who built the whole of Christendom, the history is there. And had it not been for the Crusades you and I probably wouldn’t exist, Catholic Europe wouldn’t exist and our Catholic ancestors would all be speaking Arabic - Ref. The Battle of Lepanto.

How is it that from the time of Jesus up to the time of Luther christianity was distinctly Catholic? So your saying there were “sola scriptura” believing Christian in the 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th centuries before the final Canon of the Bible was even established, prove it. You probably think the foundation of truth is the Bible, tell me where in the Bible is this claim made, rather.... 1 Timothy 3:15
15 if I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the Church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth.
If all I need is “sola fide” than I don’t even need the Bible. The whole Protestant argument falls apart like a house of cards if one truly seeks to now and love the truth. Who’s the pastor that started your church?
I appreciate the research and the videos you have done concerning the Mormon teachings and the approach you take by using their own “scripture” to expose its falsities, I think you have it all covered on that level.
I would like you to take the same approach to the Catholic Church and produce some videos. The Catholic Church is like a Lion just let it out of its cage and it will defend itself 😉.
May God Bless You and Your Work!
James Vigil. How do you respond to the several popes since Vatican II who have participated in worship with religions which reject Jesus Christ, and have taught that it is wrong to proselytize? How do you respond to images of non-Christian religions being placed on Roman Catholic altars, multi-religious gatherings at Assissi, led by popes, and popes kissing a "holy book" which denies that Jesus is God incarnate and that he died on the cross for us? I would think sedevacantism is the only way to be consistent with the Roman Catholic tradition, as it is clear that modernism, condemned by previous popes, has gained possession of the Roman hierarchy.
anselman I respond by saying I don’t like it anymore than you do. I also believe that The Church is more than just the pope and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. I believe The Church as The Body of Christ is somewhere in its passion, though Christ Body was disfigured and unrecognizable it still remained perfect and holy and somewhere along the way Peter denied Him three times and was absent, however he still remained the possessor of the Keys. However The Beloved Disciple remained with Christ and His Mother and his faith did not waver all the while Peter still had the Keys but lacked the faith.
Sister Lucia said there was a diabolical disorientation in the world, the Bible eludes to these events, the Fatima prophesies elude to events much like our own time. I tend to think Benedict is still pope rather than Francis. However in regards to the post conciliar popes I’m not saying they aren’t the popes I just don’t see how they can be the popes.
I can’t make any final judgment as you can see but perhaps they possess the buildings and we possess The Faith.
@@jamesvigil707 Best wishes to you. Jesus and Mary keep you. They will have the victory.
Eastern Orthodox Church is the Christian Church.
Have you ever read "The Maze Of Mormonism" by Walter Martin? I do remember, growing up, there was a lot of discussion over if Oliver Cowdry was burning in hell or not, also there was great discussion over the eternal fate of certain wives of Joseph Smith, and Brigham Young, who left "the church"
What is the documentation of "Mahomet" being the name of a demon? Is it just me or does "Mahomet" sound a lot like "Mohamed"?
Mahomet is an old English way of saying Mohammed or Muhammad.
Whoa. You're almost to 1000 subs!
Praise God! May truth prevail and may Mormons come to know the real Jesus! 😊
@@itsmejessie I still think ya ought to be on Jeff's radio show for an episode. I think it'd be neat to discuss your videos here and your overall goal.
@@BDCsSanctuary I'd love that. I admire Jeff and his ministry so much! Maybe one day!
Great video. God bless you!
So I’m both an active LDS member “Mormon” and a Master Mason. I will say that you have several surface level things in this video that are correct but on the deeper levels of discussion, there is a lot of misinformation tied with misunderstandings. Even into the discussion of symbols such as the pentagram, yes it is associated with occult practices. It was first adopted in the 19th century during the renaissance era but it has not always been an occult symbol and ties back to original Greek meanings of mutual recognition and wellbeing but going even further back, it was used for various purposes and meanings dating back 3500BCE (before occultism was a thing). You will see the symbol on LDS temples and it references scripture from Revelations 12. There are also several Catholic cathedrals across Europe that have the symbol as apart of the architecture as well.
I understand it’s apart of your shtick to portray Mormonism and Freemasonry in bad lights and I doubt that you or your subscribers will change opinions or have open minds to legitimate discourse but please have some due diligence and do some actual in depth research of religious customs, practices, symbols, and symbolism meanings from reliable sources instead of just looking up a wiki article and referencing information from people within your same echo chamber.
"BCE"? And you're a practicing LDS member? You don't even reference the historical timeline with "Before Christ" but use the modern Atheist's terminology "Before Common Era"?
@@itsmejessie Using BC vs BCE is trying to make a point with straw man semantics. I used a common term that is used in educational and other professional settings across the world. That alone does not reflect one’s personal religious beliefs. My points still stand that regardless of how you feel, this video is filled with misinformation and I can say that with confidence because I am both an active Mormon and Mason.
I’ll leave you with this thought. Jesus died on that cross for me the same as He did for you. His atoning sacrifice covers us all. He is our Lord and Savior and is the same yesterday, today, and forever. I can track, trace, and reference all of my beliefs and religious practices to the Holy Bible. I have attended religious services of dozens of other religions, denominations, and religious sects and have read their religious books of scripture. I know where my spiritual path has taken me and I will continue down it because I know that it has made me a better person. At the end of it all, I will stand before the throne of God, and I am looking forward to hearing the words of our Father saying “Well done My good and faithful servant.
I certainly wish you the best and urge you to continue learning all you can and to refrain from calling the religion of millions of people occult when you do not know or understand the beliefs, principles and full history of the religion.
@tapir rider It is true that I have not experienced the endowment from pre 1990. That is irrelevant though due to the fact that I know what was included and done. I have the ability of doing in depth research and yielding reliable results from reliable sources and understanding the meanings and symbolism.
Me being a Mason has nothing to do with the temple endowment but everything to do with understanding that this video incorrectly interprets signs, symbols, and meanings.
Instead of commenting an arbitrary argument of “you didn’t have my experience, therefore your wrong”, please read my initial post/comment and try to respond with some form of logic. Not even the creator replied with anything substantial to me and they tried to use a straw man point of reference to try to call me an atheist.
Knowing how this conversation will likely go, I already understand that you will probably not listen to other points of view and will likely try to shout me down regardless of anything else that I may say. Because of this, I will likely not take any more time to respond and I do sincerely wish you the best.
@tapir rider Pro tip for the future. If you don’t want it to be possibly discussed, then don’t bring it up. Everyone will remain happier for it.
there is a lot of similarity between masons and mormonism, besides some of the symbolism, even today.
and i am sure you are not advocating a path marked by the broadest gray line possible.
you have been given to know being raised even as a suckling babe at your mother's breast and later at her knees the good things the sweet things of life. and later didn't you try to fit into the shadow of your father? isn''t his example of manly goodness the light that leads you even today? or at the very least the desire to be known by your fellow man for your own manly goodness and the example to those you come into contact.
i am fairly certain you have not embarked on this pathway because duplicitous in the heart, or weak. and no one is accusing you of falsehood.
but what do we see? you entered the doors of masonry and your heart was pierced (you remember) and they told you to be forthright with your fellow man.
and then you entered a temple made with human hands. and they added to that message you had received from masonry, the square the compass, and the 24 inch gauge. and they told you to keep it close to your body.
anciently the living god had a temple on earth made with human hands. we (humans) could see it with our eyes. it was a place in the physical world. and people flocked to it. and marvelled. and pondered at what they saw; at what they were told to builid.
we will recall the silver trumpets, blasting out their clarion call, gold inlay and
gold overlay, brass and 5 cubits (it was not 6), blood of bulls and blood of rams, and the god of all gods who dwelt in mists of thick darkness behind a separating curtain (the veil) made of the skins of badgers and other things; held together with fine red thread..
and everyone who came pondered deeply over what they saw and heard.
and everyone, and i think i know without being told, and everyone wanted deeply and desired deeply, the salvation of god.
Great videos and content keep fighting the demonic cult! Good job!!
In what way is Mormonism demonic?
@@branl3437 How very Christian of you. 😂
@@TheChrishendrix to truthfully answer your question. What is stated in this video is fact ( know both by at one time being a member n the early 70's and what was taught. And what I have found as tangible evidence). Take and symbols that is used on and in the temples and compare that to what is commanded in Exodus to Deuteronomy. question- Do you follow and take the Creators word or that of man and the justifications (excuses)?
@@braddefoor5933 You've just told me that you were a Mormon once and that The Bible didn't have the same Temples found today.....

Nice video and great information. You present the information in a clear and concise manner.
Nimrod is considered to be the first Freemason. Nimrod’s lineage goes through Canaan, Ham, Tubalcain, and finally to Cain. Tubalcain’s sister was Namaah, the mother of Ham. Cain is not included in the lineage of Adam... Isn’t that strange? What are your thoughts on this?
The myth that Nimrod is considered to the first Freemason has no historical or factual backing, although it is often quoted from the same single source that originated and spread this myth.
Historical evidence in the form of the Cooke Manuscript in the British Library purports to show a lineage through Lamech. If I had to make a choise' I would choose a history with some providence way about anti Masonry authors (who only arose in the late 17h00's and are normally either fundamentalists or New Liberals opposing the conservative stance of Freemasonry
