"In Plato's Timaeus, there appears the earliest known equation of the Creator with the 'Architect of the Universe'. The Creator, in the Timaeus, is called 'tekton', meaning 'craftsman' or 'builder'. 'Arche-tekton' thus denoted 'master craftsman' or 'master builder'. For Plato, the 'arche-tekton' crafted the cosmos by means of geometry."
- Baigent & Leigh, The Temple and the Lodge

Sacred geometry is geometry that is sacred to the observer or discoverer. This meaning is sometimes described as being the language of the God of the religion of the people who discovered or used it. Sacred geometry can be described as attributing a religious or cultural value to the graphical representation of the mathematical relationships and the design of the man-made objects that symbolize or represent these mathematical relationships. The golden ratio was often used in the design of Greek and Roman architecture. A contemporary usage of the term describes a supposed re-discovered mathematical order to the intrinsic nature of the Universe that is represented in crop circles and in ancient architecture such as the Great Pyramid and Stonehenge.

The skills provided income as they still do today. The workers had different classes or grades of skill. A beginner was called an Apprentice. The next level was called Fellowcraft. And finally the highest level of a Master.

With the advent of X-ray photography science has discovered that the physical structure of elements are governed by a patterned array of intervals surrounding a central node, or as Masons know it, the "point within a circle". The general assumption that the nature of matter is fundamentally composed of particles is rapidly giving way to the concept that the underlying patterns of the material world are geometric wave forms. The irony here is that by choosing to examine reality through geometry many ancient cultures find themselves close to the stance now adopted by modern science, and vice versa.

Little wonder, then, that sacred geometry was so important to the temple builders. And since the universe was created by God it theoretically followed that to embed physical structures with the ratios of creation the universe could be mirrored. In so doing, temples became doorways into the inner workings of the physical world and the inner world of consciousness. This interface would enable anyone so predisposed to integrate oneself with the gods.

In Genesis 4:17-22 and Genesis 5:3-31 we find two sets of descendents with the same names. One from Seth, one from Cain. There is no explaination in the KJ bible of how Lamech and Tubal Cain got categorized as evil. The two sets of descendents doesn't apply to anything here but it will be important later. However the Talmad says Lamech accidently killed Cain and he was blind. Another source says the line of Cain died off because each leader had killed the previous one. On the next few pages we discover where Cain went when he was banished.

So can we reconcile the scriptures with the scientific evidence? Yes!...and NO! We have use both biblical and non-biblical texts. These combined actually give us a much clearer picture of what our forefathers knew and taught to their sons. The biblical writers, not familiar with science gave us 'miracles' instead of facts. That omission has lead to many controversies and misleading conclusions. We hope to set the record straight and at the same time show you how God really loved mankind by teaching him scientific secrets. At one time even the art of reading and writing was kept secret. One had to be 'initiated' into the art. They took an oath not to reveal what they had learned to anyone else...Of cource they are not secret anymore.

Before we get into the ancient archives that tell us the facts about Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, we want to begin with several 'banned' books that were left out of the Bible: These books obviously contain material that the church banned and didn't want the people to read. Our question is Why? Was there something the church wanted to be kept hidden from the people? Here is a link to the Apocrypha list. The word "apocryphal" was first applied, in a positive sense, to writings which were kept secret because they were the vehicles of esoteric knowledge considered too profound or too sacred to be disclosed to anyone other than the initiated.

Surpressed writings?; The Apocrypha confirms the answer is a resounding YES! But Masonry has known these secrets for hundreds of years. We do not teach these secrets. We just seek them privately on our own as we are instructed to do by the oath. Now, not everybody chooses to do this. It's up to the individual. Some seek philosophy, some seek to investigate old religious beliefs and practices, particularly those of ancient Egypt. Yet others research Enoch and the occult (secret) teachings and research the ancient Mystery Schools lessons that existed in 300 BC and before. But most important of all we seek the secrets of science. In science God reveals all his secrets.

With scientific discoveries, opposition to religious tyranny and the quest for knowledge and truth clearly defined; we began an 8 year quest to find out what the real Masonic secrets were and why, amoung other things, the Masonic 'focus' of the 24th degree has the words; "The "inner" ( solar ) mysteries of Osiris, (which is uniquely Egyptian) Thammuz, (A Phoenician deity) Bel, Atys, Dionusos (which is Greek), Cama, and Mithras (Roman) are then rehearsed." Why were all these pagan deities mentioned in the degree work?

So with that said, we need to keep in mind that the stories in the bible have a Jewish or Hebrew point of view in the OT. The OT also focus' on a God of punishment and revenge while the NT focus' on a god of love and forgiveness. There is a reason for this stark contrast but we must maintain an open mind to grasp it. The NT focuses on Jesus from a Greek and Roman point of view. Greece and Rome had their own special deities that the legends actually aquate with Jesus, but not many people know this.

"Coils Masonic Encyclopedia", Henry Coils, page 516, 517 says: "Men have decided whether they want a God like the ancient Hebrew Yahweh, a partisan tribal God, with whom they can talk and argue and from whom they can hide if necessary, or a boundless, eternal, universal undenominational, and international, divine spirit, so vastly removed from the speck called man, that he cannot be known, named, or approached. So soon as man begins to laud his God and endow him with the most perfect human attributes such as justice, mercy, beneficence, etc., the Divine Essence is depreciated and despoiled. The Masonic test (for admission) is a Supreme Being, and any qualification added is an innovation and distortion."

What are the Origional Masonic Secrets?

Matthew 13:35, "I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world."

The Ancient Knowledge of Mankind

Using the King James Bible as a starting point: We find in Genesis that Adam and Eve were given 'knowledge' by eating a metaphorical 'apple'. (a figure of speech) "When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining "WISDOM", she took some and ate it."
Most researchers agree, there were no apple trees in (Eden) Mesopotamia at the time....

So how do we explain how Eve really gained wisdom? In fact, what is wisdom? According to the Lost books of Adam and Eve and other sources, Eve became 'aware' of herself, 'conscious'.

Lost Books 4:8 "And Adam said to Eve, "Look at thine eyes, and at mine, which afore beheld angels in heaven, praising; and they, too, without ceasing.

Lost Books 4:10 "Adam said again to Eve, "What is our body to-day, compared to what it was in former days, when we dwelt in the garden?"

These were 'bodies' of 'soul' or 'light' not flesh. When Eve gained 'wisdom' her body became flesh - no more of a Heavenly nature.

Lost Books 8:2 " Then God the Lord said unto Adam, "When thou wast under subjection to Me, thou hadst a bright nature within thee, and for that reason couldst thou see things afar off. But after thy transgression thy bright nature was withdrawn from thee; and it was not left to thee to see things afar off, but only near at hand; after the ability of the flesh; for it is brutish."

Lost Books 13:7 "But when I heard of thy transgression, I deprived thee of that bright light. Yet, of My mercy, I did not turn thee into darkness, but I made thee thy body of flesh, over which I spread this skin, in order that it may bear cold and heat.

Scientists have dated the formation of the Earth to 4 billion years ago, but that doesn't agree with biblical or theological theory either. What else did they get wrong?
Did we really evolve from apes?

From a scientific viewpoint, most people assume that the first humans were primitive hunter gatherers who developed other skills over time - but that doesn't jive with the knowledge of Adam,(ADAPA) Eve,(Titi) Cain and Abel (twins) since they were apparently created with the ability to speek, reason and learn. The JK Bible states clearly that Adam and Cain (KA.IN) farmed and Abel (ABAEL) raised 'livestock'. Livestock indicates 'domesticated', tame animals. Genesis 3:23 and 4:3 is the only mention of this leaving out many years before that. However another sacred text reveals more as indicated by "the Twins" and the words in parentheses.

When kingship was 'lowered', who was the first king? In the Sumerian texts Adapa U-an, elsewhere called the first man, was a half-god, half-man culture hero, called by the title Abgallu (Ab=water, Gal=Great, Lu=Man) of Eridu. He was considered to have brought civilisation to the city from Dilmun (probably Bahrain). Noah (Ziusudra/Upnapishtim) may have lived in Sippar.

After the flood: Some modern researchers following David Rohl, have conjectured that Eridu, to the south of Ur, was the original Babel and site of the Tower of Babel, rather than the later city of Babylon, for a variety of reasons:

The ziggurat ruins of Eridu are far larger and older than any others, and seem to best match the Biblical description of the unfinished Tower of Babel. One name of Eridu in cuneiform logograms was pronounced "NUN.KI" ("the Mighty Place") in Sumerian, but much later the same "NUN.KI" was understood to mean the city of Babylon.

The Ziggurat of Eridu is similar to the Ziggurat of Ur, but slightly smaller. The chief god of this city was Enki; the god of Wisdom.

The Enuma Elish, the Babylonian Creation myth, explains how natural phenomena and social institutions on Earth came into being and were regulated. In an earlier Sumerian source, however, the story is different - everything is established by the god Enki, the clever craftsman who presides over the life-giving fresh waters, the patron of crafts and arts, magic and wisdom.

"Fruits of the soil' in Genesis 4:3 indicates domesticated grain, fruit trees, vine grapes, wheat and perhaps barley. Jerico shows the remains of a human civilized population 10,000 years ago. There is much more proof of an advanced civilized society in the Middle East. In Iran and Iraq in particular.

Archaeological finds and the words of Moses, Daniel and Josephus indicate giants also roamed the Earth in very ancient times. They became the biblical 'tribes' feared by all who incountered them. These giants are the legendary 'Nephilim' that God wanted destroyed along with the men they had corrupted. But they are called 'men of renown' in Genesis 6:4. Who were these 'childern' of the 'fallen angels'? 'Nephilim' means 'giant'. The Great Flood of Noah did not rid the Earth of these giants. More about the giants on Hiram Index 3.

Why do we have so many religions? Three true religions, Hinduism, Sikhism and Buddhism, believe in reincarnation. Three other true religions, Judaism, Christianity and Sufism believe in a resurrection. How can they both be right? These and other paradoxes can be explained if you have the missing information.

The reason we can't reconcile the theory of evolution with the Genesis account of creation, or the apparent contradiction of reincarnation and a resurrection is because of one simple yet key piece of information. This website provides that missing piece of information.

But as we said, the oldest, purest form of the legends came from Egypt. From there we can trace them back to Mesopotamia, Sumer in particular or what is now known as Turkey, Iraq and Iran ect. Here we find Noah, and his sons who carried on a tradition and a secret knowledge we are just now beginning to understand. The current Masonic legend started with Noah but switched to Hiram sometime in the 1700's. Noah was not only chosen by God to be saved from the "Flood" but given the 'secrets' of civilized living by God, in the form of stone tablets or 'pillers'. As you read this site, you will see how all 3 of Noah's sons and several grandsons ended up in Egypt. They all became Kings of Egypt under a god they called Horus.

Alexander, the Great personally saw and inspected, according to his historians, many such giant pillars of gold bearing strange scripts in the extremities of India. Plato affirms, in his Critias, that the Atlantean kings inscribed on golden pillars their laws, edicts and judicial decisions, in a strange ritual involving the sacrifice of a bull dedicated to Poseidon. This type of ritual is characteristic of the Indies, where it is called Gomedha.

When we began our quest, we were already interested in Egyptian culture and we had already read Graham Hancock's book Fingerprints of the Gods, which left us wanting more information. So we read his The Sign and the Seal. Then we read Message of the Sphinx. After that everything began to make sence. Masons of the 16th and 17th century had the same idea and they already knew what we were about to find out. Egypt has everything to do with Masonic secrets and the "Mystery Schools" of ancient societies.

Masonic legends say that Seth, Adam and Eve's son was the first human to have 'building skills'. Seth was some how connected to the Egyptian evil God Set. These two are in no way connected but the old terminology stuck. Seth was also called 'the crocodile'. The Crocodile King turns up in the predynastic era of Egypt. Josephus refers to Seth as the most notable of the sons of Adam in the Antiquities of the Jews, and reports that his descendants built the Pillars of the sons of Seth. These people were also called the SHEMSU HOR.

The "Zodiac of Denderah", located in the Temple of Hathor, in Denderah, Egypt, now on display in the Louvre. Dating from the first century b.c., it details all of the Egyptian constellations. Near the top (and upside down) can be seen the constellation of Aries. Taurus is shown immediately to its right. Leo is below and to the right of the center of the zodiac, treading on a serpent, and below and to the left of Leo one can see Virgo, holding an infant.
From E.C. Krupp, Beyond the Blue Horizon: Myths & Legends of the Sun, Moon, Stars, and Planets. New York: Oxford University Press, 1991.

There is significant evidence to support this theory, that ancient Egyptian civilization did not evolve, but appeared in completed form at its inception. As John Anthony West explains, Every aspect of Egyptian knowledge seems to have been complete at the very beginning. The sciences, artistic and architectural techniques and the hieroglyphic system show virtually no signs of a period of 'development'; indeed, many of the achievements of the earliest dynasties were never surpassed or even equalled later on. This astonishing fact is readily admitted by orthodox Egyptologists, but the magnitude of the mystery it poses is skillfully understated, while its many implications go unmentioned.

As Graham Hancock explains in The Message of the Sphinx, "the 'Followers of Horus' may not have been 'kings' in the usual sense of the word, but rather as immensely powerful and enlightened individuals - high initiates who were carefully selected by an elite academy that established itself at the sacred site of Heliopolis-Giza thousands of years before history began."

The Masonic so-called secrets are not only complicated and cover a wide range of subjects but also contain facts that are revealed in ancient texts that were written up to 5000 years before any bible or Koran appeared on the scene. Church fathers will say these stories are myth but they are actually history lessons. Myth has replaced truth because the truth for the church is too dangerous. The texts contain dates and places and the same people as verified by scripture only they are written in cuneiform or the language of the country in which they were found.. Any mason will tell you there are NO SECRETS ANYMORE because in the age of the internet you can research any subject! We found that to be true.

Most of the ancient texts are now available to anyone who takes the time and diligently searches. The ancient texts contain material that most people have never even heard of - little lone read. Stories about the deluge, Noah, Moses, Cain and Abel, the Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah, Abraham, Adam and Eve, and others are found in these texts, the only difference being; the names of the patriarchs are in the language of the area in which they were found. Scholers have translated most of the material and it's connection to the biblical stories cannot be disputed. We have tried to include as much of this information as we could find to help our brothers and anyone else interested in finding out what the church wanted kept secret or actually surpressed.

If we read (Psalms 110:1-7)"The LORD has sworn And will not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek.” The "Law" is The Law of Moses. And it is known as the Nazirene Law. Covered in Numbers 6, The Nazirene Law applied to the priesthood only.

With the problem being that these men of religious authority in many instances used their positions to rule and live off the labors and wealth of the people. They not only charged for their services, and misled the people into believing that God approved of their many rituals and traditions, but the allegation against them that they devoured the wealth and houses of widows was a reality of life. see Nazirene Law

It was easy to see why the priesthood of Jesus would be difficult for early Jewish Christians to grasp. He was not from the lineage of Aaron. Jesus claimed nor practiced no special ministry in the temple. He confronted the religious structure instead of joining it. In Jesus’ day, the priesthood also become a corrupt institution. The custom had become High Priest in those days through intrigue and politicking among the corrupt priesthood.

A priest forever is an important contrast. Jesus’ priesthood (like Melchizedek’s) is unending, but no High Priest descended from Aaron ever had a forever priesthood.

"Today I have begotten You", refers to Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. At that time He fully assumed His role as our great High Priest, having been perfected (Hebrews 5:9).

What this means is that most of those Jews who generally believe they are Torah Observant because they are ritually clean, have yet to learn the secrets of the Law, and the manner in which they must apply the Divine Knowledge that has been given to them in the scriptures in the endeavor to open the Inner Door to the Kingdom within. And in like manner, because modern Christians have been anchored to this world by the Pagan doctrines of Rome which they continue to cling to, and falsely believe that they are exempt from works based upon Paul's doctrine of faith, they too have only alienated themselves from the Kingdom of God.

What did the Gospels look like before being edited and re-written by the Church of Rome? What were the original beliefs or the first followers of Yeshua? You will be astonished when you read a surviving text of The Gospel of the Nazirenes which was hidden away from the corrupters of the Roman Church.
see The Secret Doctrine What we fail to realize today is the fact that, in a religion with a true spiritual foundation, these differences of opinion -- opinions that are not permitted under government rule -- are an absolutely necessary.

We can observe this same problem at work today in Communist China. There is only one church -- which is the government ordained church. Doctrine is controlled -- religious thought and expression is controlled -- the clergy being ordained to their position by the state, is tightly controlled -- by virtue of these controls, the church is never at odds with the government -- and the very manner in which the people worship is also controlled. Genuine, spiritual religion, is suppressed, and anyone who deviates from the prescribed doctrine of the government-church is immediately dealt with -- severely.

Genuine followers of the Christ would have nothing to do with the likes of Constantine, and neither would they enter into a covenant with the secular powers of this world.

In a Spiritual Church such as that which Jesus ordained, the focus is not on the believer holding the proper set of beliefs, or a hierarchy of priests -- because the source and authority is spiritual, and remains above and beyond the physical world. The beliefs of each person are therefore seen as a product of the people's stage of spiritual development, and are in accordance with the individual person's condition in relation to man's spiritual reality. Because each person is at a different level of spiritual awareness, fixed creeds and dogma are a detriment to a truly spiritual religion.

Unbelievers are those who, because of their carnal thinking and lifestyle, are spiritually undeveloped, and do not have a solid spiritual connection with God. They may profess a belief in the Lord -- they may demonstrate the outward appearance of a religious person -- they may even be a priest or member of the clergy -- but because their heart and mind is focused on the things of this world, their condition is carnal, and they are said to be of the flesh rather than the spirit.

To a Spiritual Church, these unbelievers who put on the appearance of being a Christian are in fact an anchor to the soul of the Church, and cause it to be grounded in the error and darkness of this world. Their condition is one of spiritual sickness -- they are incomplete and not whole, and unable to connect with God in the true spiritual sense. As both Celsus and the Apostle Paul warns, if they are in too great a number, they will bring about the death and demise of the church itself.

So when Jesus said Lazerus was 'sick', he was refering to his spiritual unawareness.

In this commercial age science is concerned solely with the classification of physical knowledge and investigation of the temporal and illusionary parts of Nature. Its so-called practical discoveries bind man but more tightly with the bonds of physical limitation, Religion, too, has become materialistic: the beauty and dignity of faith is measured by huge piles of masonry, by tracts of real estate, or by the balance sheet. Philosophy which connects heaven and earth like a mighty ladder, up the rungs of which the illumined of all ages have climbed into the living presence of Reality--even philosophy has become a prosaic and heterogeneous mass of conflicting notions. Its beauty, its dignity, its transcendency are no more. Like other branches of human thought, it has been made materialistic--"practical"--and its activities so directionalized that they may also contribute their part to the erection of this modern world of stone and steel.

What do the lofty concepts of the world's illumined saviors and sages have in common with these stunted, distorted products of the "realism" of this century? All over the world men and women ground down by the soulless cultural systems of today are crying out for the return of the banished age of beauty and enlightenment--for something practical in the highest sense of the word. A few are beginning to realize that so-called civilization in its present form is at the vanishing point; that coldness, heartlessness, commercialism, and material efficiency are impractical, and only that which offers opportunity for the expression of love and ideality is truly worth while. All the world is seeking happiness, but knows not in what direction to search. Men must learn that happiness crowns the soul's quest for understanding. Only through the realization of infinite goodness and infinite accomplishment can the peace of the inner Self be assured. In spite of man's geocentricism, there is something in the human mind that is reaching out to philosophy--not to this or that philosophic code, but simply to philosophy in the broadest and fullest sense.

The great philosophic institutions of the past must rise again, for these alone can tend the veil which divides the world of causes from that of effects. Only the Mysteries- -those sacred Colleges of Wisdom--can reveal to struggling humanity that greater and more glorious universe which is the true home of the spiritual being called man. Modern philosophy has failed in that it has come to regard thinking as simply an intellectual process. Materialistic thought is as hopeless a code of life as commercialism itself. The power to think true is the savior of humanity. The mythological and historical Redeemers of every age were all personifications of that power. He who has a little more rationality than his neighbor is a little better than his neighbor. He who functions on a higher plane of rationality than the rest of the world is termed the greatest thinker. He who functions on a lower plane is regarded as a barbarian. Thus comparative rational development is the true gauge of the individual's evolutionary status.

Briefly stated, the true purpose of ancient philosophy was to discover a method whereby development of the rational nature could be accelerated instead of awaiting the slower processes of Nature, This supreme source of power, this attainment of knowledge, this unfolding of the god within, is concealed under the epigrammatic statement of the philosophic life. This was the key to the Great Work, the mystery of the Philosopher's Stone, for it meant that alchemical transmutation had been accomplished. Thus ancient philosophy was primarily the living of a life; secondarily, an intellectual method. He alone can become a philosopher in the highest sense who lives the philosophic life. What man lives he comes to know. Consequently, a great philosopher is one whose threefold life--physical, mental, and spiritual--is wholly devoted to and completely permeated by his rationality.

Man's physical, emotional, and mental natures provide environments of reciprocal benefit or detriment to each other. Since the physical nature is the immediate environment of the mental, only that mind is capable of rational thinking which is enthroned in a harmonious and highly refined material constitution. Hence right action, right feeling, and right thinking are prerequisites of right knowing, and the attainment of philosophic power is possible only to such as have harmonized their thinking with their living. The wise have therefore declared that none can attain to the highest in the science of knowing until first he has attained to the highest in the science of living. Philosophic power is the natural outgrowth of the philosophic life. Just as an intense physical existence emphasizes the importance of physical things, or just as the monastic metaphysical asceticism establishes the desirability of the ecstatic state, so complete philosophic absorption ushers the consciousness of the thinker into the most elevated and noble of all spheres--the pure philosophic, or rational, world.

Contrary to what most people think, the Earth was known to be spherical in ancient times. The ancient Greeks, Egyptians, Babyloians and Persians calculated its circumference with surprising accuracy.

The earliest of these flat-Earth promoters was the African Lactantius (AD 245-325), a professional rhetorician who converted to Christianity mid-life. He rejected all the Greek philosophers, and in doing so also rejected a spherical Earth. His views were considered heresy by the Church Fathers and his work was ignored until the Renaissance, at which time some humanists revived his writings as a model of good Latin, and of course, his flat Earth view also was revived. see Flat Earth

According to theosophists, the earliest traces of a counter-intuitive idea that it is the Earth that is actually moving and the Sun that is at the centre of the solar system (hence the concept of heliocentrism) is found in several Vedic Sanskrit texts written in ancient India. Yajnavalkya (c. 9th–8th century BC) recognized that the Earth is spherical and believed that the Sun was "the centre of the spheres" as described in the Vedas at the time. In his astronomical text Shatapatha Brahmana, he states:
"The sun is stationed for all time, in the middle of the day. [...] Of the sun, which is always in one and the same place, there is neither setting nor rising.

However the church took this view from; Psalm 93:1, Psalm 96:10, and I Chronicles 16:30 state that "the world is firmly established, it cannot be moved." Psalm 104:5 says, "[the Lord] set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved." Ecclesiastes 1:5 states that "the sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises."

Galileo defended heliocentrism, and claimed it was not contrary to those Scripture passages. He took Augustine's position on Scripture: not to take every passage literally, particularly when the scripture in question is a book of poetry and songs, not a book of instructions or history. The writers of the Scripture wrote from the perspective of the terrestrial world, and from that vantage point the sun does rise and set. In fact, it is the earth's rotation which gives the impression of the sun in motion across the sky.

Pope Urban VIII, who had approved the idea of Galileo's publishing a work on the two theories of the world, became hostile to Galileo. Over time, the Catholic Church became the primary opposition to the Heliocentric view. But as the controversy progressed and the Church took a harder line toward Copernican ideas after 1616, the Jesuits moved toward Tycho's teachings; after 1633, the use of this system was almost mandatory. For advancing heliocentric theory Galileo was put under house arrest for the last several years of his life.

John Calvin preached a sermon in which he denounced those who "pervert the course of nature" by saying that "the sun does not move and that it is the earth that revolves and that it turns". "Who will venture to place the authority of Copernicus above that of the Holy Spirit?"
