Lodge rooms are set up to mimic King Solomon’s temple. This is where they trick you. It’s similar, but not the same.
The lodge room is oriented East to West in a rectangular shape. Each side is named after a cardinal direction. N,S,E,W.
The North is considered “dark”. Typically people do not sit there.
The South is the station of the Junior Warden.
The West is the station of the Senior Warden.
The East is the station of the Master. In King Solomon’s Temple, this would be where the Holy of Holies was. For those that don’t know, the Holy of Holies was where the Ark of the Covenant was, and the presence of YHVH manifested as a cloud.
Above the station of the master, in every single lodge room, is the letter “G”. As i states before, this represents the Grand Architect of the Universe. G is a “universal” name for God in this setting.
Now let’s go back to King Solomon’s temple for reference. In the Scriptures, you will find the exact OPPOSITE orientation. The lodge room and King Solomon’s temple are oriented opposite each other. The Holy of Holies was in the West. The Sacrificial Altar was in the East. Make sense?
What is the temple? Did YHVH simple invent some sort of earthly structure for worship? No. The Real Temple is an exact copy of the throne room in Heaven where YHVH dwells.
Where did Satan dwell in heaven, before he was cast out from Heaven? He was the “guardian cherub” that covered the throne of YHVH.
Think back to the G symbol that sits above the Master’s chair in the East, The symbol that represents God.
If we are supposed to assume that the lodge room is the temple, and that the temple is a replica of Heaven, and Satan covered the throne of YHVH, what does the G symbol represent?
Who is the God of Freemasonry? The discerning eye can tell right away that it is not YHVH.
G = Satan. No need for a 33rd Degree to figure it out.
