Hirams Formula: 33^2+11^2+11^2=11^3. 1089+121+121=1331; 1089/9=121 In numerology, the number 33 is considered a “Master Number” and is associated with teaching, spirituality, and enlightenment. It is said to combine the dual aspects of the number 11 and the trinity aspects of nature. a^2+b^2+c^2=d^3. A corollary to a^2+b^2=c^2 which is attributed to Pythagoras. (999-99-9)/(9+9+9)=33. (333-33-3)/(3+3+3)=33. (111-11-1)/(1+1+1)=33. Sum of the odd integers adding to a cube 1331; 111 to 131. Sum of the odd integers adding to a cube 1030301; 10101 to 10301.

[@mrhassell]

The point, is that you enter into the lodge an apprentice mason, without any claim to acknowledgement for your work undertaken herein and surrender any aspiration of an eternal life, or fame, recognition or memory made in history, to bring about the works of the supreme creator, to the absolute best of your ability, with your reward in the end, being nothing more than any or all men, death.

[@EzraMerr]

When you enter as an apprentice mason , yes; but after that?

[@user-wk5uf6sp5p]

But it is a life worth living none of the others can compare

[@TheLuckyShepherd]

I just find it sad that so many men need to have this information handed to them. They can't come to this on their own conclusion, despite someone doing so before them. Like you need to join the club and have your hand held as you're walked towards the other side but then convinced you got there on your own. Meanwhile, because you didn't actually get there on your own, you kind of don't get it still. It's like being told fire is hot and understanding it but never having touched it yourself. Then at the end of the process you avoid using lighters because you remember learning that fire is hot lol. It's as if so many of these men are weak and can't stand on their own, can't learn on their own. Perhaps this was done intentionally in order to capture men who may try to seek knowledge on their own and stand on their own. Pre-form their Stone so they're not a sharp edge. 🤷‍♂️ 😂

[@RFC72]

​@@TheLuckyShepherd If you can do it on your own, why go to school?

[@TheLuckyShepherd]

@@RFC72 School is for children, they are not disciplined and need to learn lot of basic life lessons. It's not the best analogy. Adults can educate themselves in many ways. Online resources are abundant and immense. If you're disciplined enough you can learn on your own and do it better than an organization can. The difference is needing whether or not you need the hand holding a club does or if you're capable of figuring it out for your self. Each has a risk and reward. The risk of a club is you're led down a path that's too linear, not particularly customized to your strengths and weaknesses and potentially it can be misguided, intentional or otherwise. The risk of doing it on your own is completely missing the mark and being ignorant to doing so because you have little to no guidance. Its my belief many clubs were created to corral and misguide the free thinkers who are seeking knowledge. Convince them they learned what there is to learn and then they stop seeking or at least seek out the wrong info or seek from the wrong sources. If you desired, that's how you would control free thinkers. 🤷‍♂️

The first degree tracing board is a triple exaltation(XXX/666)in the birth chart of Hiram Abiff(A beef/buff/bull). Jachin(Aries Sun), Boaz(Taurus Moon), and Wisdom(Libra Saturn). Revelation 13:18 The birthdate is in March and the day, and year equal 3 tens(or XXX) which is also 444. Hiram's "ascendant" sign is Virgo. Virgo has a numerical value of (8) like Maat. It's the (6)th house. Revelation [12]:(14)=[3]times of 14 generations in Matthew(Levi/Libra/Maat). Levi-"The V"(Venus). Venus was in Aquarius(Luke 22:11)the 11th house.

Hiram did not design the Temple. The blueprint was given to Solomon by King David. Read the Bible to see where did David get it.

King David is the historical Thutmosis III. King Solomon is historical Amenhotep III. Harim Abiff is the historical Amenhotep, son of Hapu. When you learn the translations and seek out factual history you will know the truth. Check out Ahmed Osman books and the unbiased documented history of the figures mentioned it's the same as names given in bible.

[@fireintheflesh]

Duh ... that's what makes it a myth.

[@bellydown29]

@fireintheflesh duh? bible is myth due to people location and eras being changed but it is based on actual historical events and people. Some of it. Not all. It's a mixture of a bunch of different myths, historical events, and allegorical writings. However the characters I mentioned in my initial comment are based of true events and people.

[@DarrenAllatt]

One of the key issues I have with this explanation is stating that the legend is about resurrection; but it’s not. Clearly in the narrative given in this report there is no resurrection. The closest thing you could argue to that is in the Rose Christian element where he is gone into the fire, but that is more a kin to the story of Daniel going into the fire while being enslaved by King Nebakanezer, where Daniel was protected by the Lord. Apart from that one instance, he’s dead nonetheless and is it no point resurrected. Rather his body is exhumed. The same where people draw the conclusion of salvation comes from this, at no point do we hear from God stating that he brought him to heaven. Again, the closest to that is the wish from an earthly perspective that we would go to heaven

No Mason would reveal this story and it’s not documented anywhere in any books other than the Masonic books. Without viewing the video to see if the accounting is accurate, I will leave it at the reason it’s being rehashed can only have been done colluding with the monarchical bankers that are known to be causing all this conflict globally. So the answer is yes, I am a 32° Master Mason and was a member of the youth group precursor that is another sect of the Freemason’s “DeMoley” and began at the age of 12. 33 years ironically. This number correlated with the 33° since we all like to make associations between not corresponding numbers to call it validation. The truth will be released. I didn’t come upon my current level of knowledge by way of degree work. I learned it from an outside source. I also know who killed Hiram Abif. Initiates are never told the history prior to the building of Solomon’s Temple. The source I got this information from wields more powerful than the Worshipful Master of The Grand Lodge’s of all the world. Now, when I explain who and why Hiram Abif was killed all of those within the order will know who the most evil power on earth is, and they will abandon their posts, and collective work to kill the descendants of the founder. But first they need to know who founded FreeMasonry. All they have to do is look at the preface to their Masonic Bible. All current bibles say “It’s believed” and “No Evidence of” these terms are familiar to anyone in the organization to mean it’s fact but trespassers cannot prove it, also was are to protect this from being discovered. Moses was the 1st grandmaster and in ancient Egypt Moses bear the name Akhenaton. The reason black men were not permitted into lodge is because of what took place in Egypt prior to the flood. If not a single individual uttered this truth it will become common knowledge again. No amount of Hollywood theatrics will wash what will befall the purveyors. My oath may have been to the order, my soul belongs to God. When those 2 things conflict my loyalty is to the creator. All that don’t hold the same to be true will lose their soul as a result of evil works they participated in.

Hugely interesting post. Whilst I am not a member of any organisations, I do know a lot of the pre Bible history. Its claimed that Hiram was a real person although that is not his name. Wasn't he the last true King? His initials were S.T. He was indeed murdered and a lot of knowledge was lost due to that murder, hence afterwards Egypt had pharoahs and not Kings?

Thanks for the feedback I really appreciate your concern. I did share your trepidation when I first started, but after wide consultation with eminent Brethren and reading of rituals and constitutions, the overwhelming consensus was that so long as obligations weren't breached there was no problem. I often remove sections from presentations that risk this happening. So much is in the public domain regarding the Craft and now available online that it's hard to make any revelations in any case. A good example is this paper on Hiram by Harvey. I just had a look on Google and it can be downloaded in its entirety on more than a dozen sites! I made sure to edit my presentation appropriately, but that won't stop someone just looking it up.

[@EzraMerr]

It's just useless LARPing, you see it's like any brotherhood, internal taxation on earnings to fund the education of orphans, place them in professions with high income , tax them; rinse and repeat. Use their positions in professions from civil service to high revenue corporations to lobby for policies in favourable to the brotherhood. The rest is just storytelling from a "worker's" point of view during the events of the old testament.

[@TheGreatReset-nk4zj]

So no entered apprentice not fellowcraft knows anything about Hiram Abif? All except the first knowledge any new member has of being raised is being knocked on the head and the initiate playing the role of Hiram Abif? Expected to pretend to lay unconscious on the floor with echos of the brethren calling out his name because he had been murdered? You mean initiates don’t know anything about him except them taking on his persona? You have no clue what you are talking about.

If you die and are raised with Hiram, you will not enter hevean. If you die and are raised with Christ, you will. 1 Kings 18:16-44 is Yahweh proving with Elijah that he is not baal. The word "holy" means set apart/seperate. The very first line of the Lord's Prayer is, "Father, may your name be kept holy." Father, may your name be kept seprate and set apart. The masons do not keep the Father's name holy. Jesus Christ is God, and all who call on Jabulon/Yahbalon will goto hell unless they repent. Ma-Ha-Bone. Yahweh is NOT baal, Jesus Christ is God.

[@EzraMerr]

First of all "Yahweh" isn't even the name of David's God; it is Elha/m, which should never be pronounced to avoid thy name being used in vain. Christ is a prophet, one that was rejected by the old Jews, now messianic jews see Christ as the messiah to come. Believing Christ is an actual son of god rather than being a child (creation) of god , like we all are is idol worship and a huge sin in original Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Your beliefs have been perversed by European Paganism. Go learn old greek and read all the desciples scriptures publicly availabile to you.
