The Prophet Jeremiah Part 27

Prayer for Understanding and Confessing False Doctrine

Alright, we're gonna pray and we are going to get started. Let's pray Lord Jesus again as we open up your word. We ask through the Holy Spirit to help us to rightly understand what you have revealed there.

That we may cast aside all of our false doctrine and idolatries that we may truly believe What you have revealed so that we may have life eternal in Jesus Christ. We ask in Jesus name. Amen. Okay, let's see here.

My apologies Aislinn. I did not know that my bell would set your dog off.

I.

Feel like I'm conducting Pavlovian experiments inadvertently so but you get the idea. All right. Can I speak about dinosaurs. Me like Dwayne Cleven, no, hang on. Yeah, I'm joking Dwayne I'm joking so there was a there was a special request could I speak about dinosaurs.

And then there's another question, why do you bow towards the altar table during the sacrament? Okay, so we have a couple of quick questions. So talking about dinosaurs You'll note that there's no doubting that there are dinosaurs or there were dinosaurs.

They were clearly on the earth. The question is what is the what is the event that led to such a mass extinction and and the fossilization of such So many and so huge Animals such as the dinosaurs answer the flood.

It was the great flood that created the good that these the fossil records as we know them. When it comes to dinosaurs I strongly recommend that you spend some time in the answers in Genesis website these these are people who are scientists who work for Ken Ham and and they do a very good job of demonstrating that the flood is the Explanation as to why we have the fossil records that we have today.

So and that's also the reason why During the quote ice age the place we're standing right now was underwater.

Okay.

The the flood being the big event. That's the that's the thing that caused The dinosaurs to disappear now. I I would note that every culture has Legends and stories about dragons. Okay, so it is my personal belief that since God told Noah that he was to take all types of animals onto the ark that dinosaurs survived the flood through the ark and.

And then as they multiplied and did their thing and spread around the earth.

The the.

That's the core nucleus of truth. That's behind every single ancient cultures. Claim regarding dragons, that's what if you think about it, that's what a dragon is, right? You know, you look at those that t-rex you sit there and go.

Yeah, that's a dragon. Okay. Yeah, that's that's well. That's where dragon stories come from. But again answers in Genesis is the plates to go now the question Karen asked Why do we bow towards the altar table during the sacrament actually?

So the the correct phrase that we used to describe what we call is reverencing the altar. So and and so you'll note that I have enemies who accused me of bowing before Norwegian Jesus and that's just not the case.

Okay, so I get accused of all kinds of weird idolatry and stuff like this but we we do something called reverencing the altar and a good way to think of it is this is That when two or more are gathered Christ is truly present.

Right, right so we have to kind of figure out a place that we can say where Jesus is and since during the Lord's Supper we Believe that in the Lord's Supper we receive the true body and blood of Christ given and shed for the forgiveness of our sins.

That's the place where we can look to as like this if Jesus was going to be anywhere. It's there. Okay, and you'll note that This this actually has some basis in the Old Testament types and shadows when it talks about the Holy of Holies what was in the Holy of Holies the Ark of the Covenant and What was on the Mer what was on top of it the mercy seat and the mercy seat had the two cherubim?

Facing each other and then of course you have those references that say that God is enthroned on the cherubim. So, you know. So the mercy seat is considered to be the seat of God if you would. That being the case the altar is a good place to locate Christ now that you know.

And so you'll note then that we have a habit that we do and that when people approach the altar they stop and they reverence. The altar it's basically their way of acknowledging Christ's presence. That that's the idea behind it and then and then to add kind of further fuel to the concept.

You know, I'm glad we went back to having You know real wax candles because when the candles are lit. They are also supposed to be a kind of symbolic representation of the presence of Christ. So they're lit right before the service.

They're extinguished at the end of the service and it's like a visual reminder again of the presence of Christ. So everything is Christo centric. It's all pointing to Jesus so and you know if you ever.

You ever hear somebody say I hear that. Pastor Rose, bro.

He bows and genuflects and hey, he bows before Norwegian Jesus. Even you you don't even know. You don't know your Lutheranism. You just that's just not the point. And so so for instance at Emmanuel Lutheran Church, they don't have Norwegian Jesus and.

I.

Do the same thing there because again, it's the altar itself. All right, so spatially. That's where we locate the presence of Christ now. He could be sitting in the back in the back row, which would make sense because after all Jesus is a Lutheran.

So. But it would be weird to reverence the back the back pew that I'm just saying that would be really weird. So Although it may be more accurate who knows but so the idea that everything is focused in on Christ who is truly present He's truly present here to forgive our sins to give us his word Defeat us his body and blood to assure us of the forgiveness of our sins.

You get the idea. So that's where that all comes from. Okay Jesus used to be darker but northern winter made his skin pale. Yeah, right exactly Rachel. I Would note that the the statue of Jesus that we have is is I would note Not quite Semitic enough.

So I'm just gonna say yes. Okay, so quick so the question is can I do a quick and dirty comparison syncretism universalism and Gnosticism in some ways you can use those terms synonymously. But it when you do that you lose some of your nuance.

So Universalism is basically like like from the quote that I read that all Religions are actually one religion. And so so this this idea then it doesn't matter what you believe. All paths lead to the one God so in in in some of the Gnostic initiatic societies.

They describe the supreme being as the grand architect of the universe. Okay, and so the grand architect he doesn't have any interaction with With the the present world that is created because that would create a duality that would go on for eternity.

And so our goal in some of these initiatic societies then is to return back To the to become one again with the supreme architect, but that is done then through Reincarnation and enlightenment and things like this and so I'm kind of mixing a lot of metaphors at the moment but the idea then behind universalism is this belief that all religions are true and Syncretism is the belief that not only are all religions true, but syncretistically.

It doesn't matter. What what religion you believe so There was there was a YouTube video that came out a big hit piece against Christianity more than a decade ago. What was the name of that thing? And the basic premise behind it is is that Christians don't really know the truth about Jesus and Christianity and so what the what the what the video set out to do was to open our eyes to the true meaning of Jesus and the Gospels and so by true meaning they mean an esoteric meaning and so what they tried to do is draw comparisons between Jesus and Osiris.

Jesus and the the Egyptian story of how Osiris how he died. The only thing that was left was his phallus Isis impregnated herself with that and then then what ended up happening is Osiris rose again from the dead and so the claim is is that Jesus is really the whole story of the Gospels and Jesus dying and rising again is really at its core a Gnostic concept of Fertility, does that make sense?

Okay, so and this is where I'll make kind of a big distinction. Gnosticism teaches that there is a supreme being. But that there are little mini gods that kind of emanate off of the supreme being. The supreme being then with each emanation those emanations are going to come out in dualities of male and female deities and.

So there's gods and goddesses and that ultimately all the ancient pagan religions had to do at their core with fertility. So the reason why you offered human sacrifices to Baal is because Baal is the one who brought the rain.

That make sense. Okay, the reason why you had you said you you worship these pagan deities by having I hate to say the phrase but this is brought up in Jeremiah having orgies under trees under at high places is because the fertility of the earth and human fertility are connected together and so the act of human copulation then under those kind of pagan Religious ceremonies is a way of inducing the gods to fertilize the earth and to make the earth abundant.

So the earth brings forth food and things like this. And so when we talk then about the you know, pagan Universalism the belief that all religions are true. They were syncretistic and believing that it didn't matter which deity worshipped because ultimately it doesn't matter which religion it is.

They're all supposed to be Stories that tell the one story the story of fertility of God's providing abundance of our return to God by getting off the wheel of reincarnation and then becoming one with the supreme Architect of the universe again.

All right, and I know this sounds like crazy stuff. I don't even know if I'm hitting home as far as cognitively understanding what I'm saying. Okay now, okay, so we're going to talk about one of the nuances of like ancient Gnosticism.

Which isn't fully embraced by all forms of Gnosticism and you need I need to make something very clear that Gnosticism doesn't have an orthodoxy where there's a doctrinal statement that everybody signs off on that's first and foremost you have to get that and instead Gnosticism has particular Beliefs that may be common or more more common than others so one of the common beliefs then in in historic Gnosticism is That the reason why the physical universe exists is Due to the fact that one of the female demi urges who was an emanation from the divine being She had a temper tantrum.

It knows it's a she she had a temper tantrum and by having the temper tantrum She inadvertently created matter. Okay, which then creates what's called a duality a duality between spirit and.

Physicality.

Okay, and dualities in the Gnostic way of thinking are bad you don't want dualities and the ultimate goal of their scheme of salvation is to leave the Dualities behind and for everything to get enfolded back into the one it back into the and it's a supreme being so when somebody says that Gnostics then would believe that the ancient Gnostics believed that The flesh doesn't matter.

What matters is the spirit? What matters is the spiritual and who you are has nothing to do with your physicality and? As a result of it, it doesn't matter what you do with your body at all. You know you Honoring God with your body.

That's a weird concept. Okay, this is the spiritual. That's really the matter so when people make connections back then to Gnosticism as it relates to transgenderism Transgenderism is this belief that who I am has nothing to do with my physicality.

The real me may not even be male the real me might be a man or a Z or blah right this is how they talk. But and and so it's a denial that God created us male and female and that the physical tangible things that you can smell taste And touch are actually have anything to do with who you are.

It's a denial of that altogether. So the real me is Something that I need to discover the the real me is something that I need to embrace and the real me needs to be set free from these cultural Stereotypes and definitions that are put upon us through dogmatic evil people like Christians, right?

And so the idea then is is that so the journey of transgenderism is first a discovery of self who your true self is and then Being that right and so you'll note that who you are then has nothing to do with how God made you Physically, so the real you is not anything tangible and so nasty Gnostics of all ages will generally talk about the flesh in terms of Of a prison that you have to be set free from right, so the if you were to think about you know, so all Gnostic religions believe in a form of reincarnation and the goal is to is to To earn the right to no longer have to to be incarnated so that you can become one, right?

So that's that's where the comparison between Gnosticism is and transgenderism because it's a denial of that. God has made us Both spirit and body and so in the Gnostic narrative then when God So Gnostics denied that Jesus Christ Actually was incarnate and born of the Virgin Mary.

They also denied that Jesus rose bodily from the grave okay, and the most one of the most absolutely insane beliefs that they cannot tolerate is the belief that When Jesus returns in glory that he's going to resurrect us and that we are going to spend eternity not as spirits but as human beings with physical bodies and.

1 John's Polemic Against Gnostic Docetism

So when John writes his first epistle The epistle of first John was written specifically against the Gnostics who were in full force. By the time John wrote this and watch where John goes because this is basically the best way I can put it is is that this is a Big slap in the face against Gnosticism.

John says that which was from the beginning. Which we have heard which we have seen with our own eyes Which we have looked upon and have touched with our hands. Concerning the word of life the life was man it made manifest and we have seen it and testified to it and proclaimed to you the eternal life which the father Which the father and was made manifest to us that which we have seen we have heard we proclaim also to you.

So know what he's doing. He's attacking the Gnostic concept. So Gnosticism there was a strain of it that taught something called Gnosticism. Gnosticism is this idea that Jesus really wasn't God incarnate.

He only appeared to have To have human flesh and so the way the Gnostics would talk about it when Jesus was walking on the sands of Judea. He would leave no footprints. Okay, because to leave footprints would mean that he he would actually be a physical form.

And so this idea of somehow God and man coming together that that just is that's crazy talk and this a lot of this is really based upon Plato's philosophy, you know, there's kind of really Plato's philosophy run amok.

Are you familiar with like the the allegory of the of the cave. Right. So in the allegory of the cave you have these people who who basically spend their entire life in the darkness, right? In this cave and this is the only world that they know and and somebody ends up shining a little bit of light inside of the cave and Creating shadows of human beings dancing around on the wall of the cave and and they're blown away by this they've never seen anything like this right and.

So they thought that was the the most amazing thing ever and that was the extent of their understanding of like how the world operates. But one of the prisoners inside of the cave kind of Jim Carrey style.

You familiar with the the Truman show, right? He escapes the cave right and he goes out and he sees the world. He sees trees and he sees the Sun and he doesn't have me and have language to describe the things that he's seen.

Right. And so what what he ends up doing is, you know after experiencing the world the real world as we know it. He goes back into the cave to try to tell his the people who he was enslaved in and kept captive in this cave about the the real world tell him about the Sun and the Moon and the stars and the birds and the bees and the flowers and the trees.

It sounds like a poem you get the idea right and what did they end up doing they end up killing him? All right, they end up killing that guy and so that becomes the kind of the core Gnostic allegory that the world we live in.

All right, the world we live in is like the cave. Okay, what's really real? We haven't even experienced yet and we don't even have language for it. We're all captives inside of our fleshly bodies and and and the spiritual realities of true enlightenment and the real really real world that spiritual.

You know few have ever attained those heights and have crossed over and come back to describe to us. What's really real? And so the basically the the world that you see is the wool that's pulled over your eyes and in Gnosticism.

It's all about enlightening yourself in earning the right to have the wool taken off of your eyes or pulling it off yourself. That's kind of the important bit so that you can finally see the truth right, so.

Hey again, am I making any sense? I have no idea because Gnosticism is one of these things that always bends my brain.

Yes, Hannah, right?

Boy, that's a good question.

Pagan Fertility Religions, Demonic Influence, and Sexual Immorality

Okay, so.

So let me kind of rephrase the question so the question was since all of these pagan religions seem to be obsessed with fertility is is this a Satanic or demonic attempt to kind of mock or either go after the the Messiah who would be the seat of the woman.

Now since I don't have a biblical text that tells me that and I don't really like thinking the devil's thoughts because that's not Really a lot of fun. I would say that as a hypothesis it sounds about right.

I have no way to prove or disprove it though Without a biblical text because I dare not go go that direction. But I would note that you'll note that that pagan religions these for these these pagan Gnostic fertility religions Sexual immorality is is an actual religious practice which is.

Just.

Mind-bogglingly unbelievable. So in one of one of the initiatic societies, it's called the hermetic order of the Golden Dawn and this was the this is the initiatic society that is set up by Alistair Crowley and And and Alistair Crowley was a firm believer and an advocate and practitioner of something called sex magic.

All right, um and. Again, this stuff is not this. I just don't think it's a coincidence. I just don't. So at its core then you'll note that one of these things these pagan religions all seem to have in common is is that They unbuckle us from any kind of sexual morality and have us chase after rank egregious abominable sexual practices that are forbidden by God for all of his creatures and.

But it's all done under a religious pretext which is.

Bizarre.

Absolutely bizarre. And by the way, if you wanted to become a member the hermetic order of the Golden Dawn. Right and you were to find your local chapter, where do you think they meet? Where do you think they perform their initiation ceremonies?

Where do they have their? Do you guys know? Your local Masonic temple. Just just this is a note. So again, I know that you know, when I talk about Freemasonry, it does upset people because there are people who are members of Freemasonry who think that it's just some kind of fraternal community organization.

It's not it really truly is not you know, it's. Granted there's a diversity of beliefs in there, but embedded in that thing is is Gnosticism. So so coming back to John here John is talking about the tangible thing about Christ and then in the later chapters of first John John's gonna go after what's called what he calls the spirit of Antichrist, right?

Tells us to love one another. Well, yeah, that's a good idea. Test the spirits. Yeah, God is love and then let's see here I've passed it up overcoming the world testimony the Son of God. Hang on a second here.

Christ our advocate.

Do not love the world. Here we go children. It is the last hour and as you have heard the Antichrist is coming. So now many Antichrists You know have come therefore we know that it is the last hour they went out from us.

They were not of us if if they had been of us they would have continued with us but they went out that it might become plain that they are not all of us and you've Been anointed by the Holy One and you all have knowledge.

I write to you not because you do not know the truth. But because you know it because no lie is of the truth and that's kind of the important bit. There are no lies of the truth. So who is the liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ and listen carefully then to how he's talking because Gnosticism will talk about Jesus as the Christ but the Christ is different than Jesus and.

So if you if you remember the quote that I gave you from Manly Hall today Manly Hall's in fact, I could probably pull this up. Hang on a second here. And I always went again when I open up my Kindle and I let you see my library.

You're gonna think I am Into the occult because I do a lot of primary research on these things. So Let's see here. Let's open up my library and hopefully this won't crash. All right, so here's the book that That I was referring to today.

It's called the the lost keys of Freemasonry and It's written by Manly Hall who was a Freemason. And watch again what he says the true Mason is not creed bound. He realizes the divine illumination of his lodge that as a Mason his religion must be universal.

Christ Buddha or Muhammad the name means little for he recognizes only the light and not the light bearer. And so when John says here that that no one who? Who's he who's a liar, but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ always and again, you can hear this in Gnostic teaching.

So I'll give you an example. What's his name? Hold on a second here.

Let's see here.

Do do do I'm gonna find this real quick. Here we go. Yeah, this guy this guy Richard roll roar Richard roar. Okay, so Richard war this guy's an emergent. All right. And he was he's a complete mystic. I would note here note note where he's sitting.

Okay, this photograph was taken from a lecture that he gave at his Institute. Where is he sitting? Center of a triangle. There's a triangle have a top to it. Not that you can see all right and what's he sitting between.

Two pillars, okay, if you know your Gnostic if you know your Gnostic symbolism. He's clearly identifying himself as a Gnostic and so here Richard roar he's a guy who a lot of quote Christians like to read but he teaches that he talks about the cosmic or mystic Christ and the Christ is different than Jesus.

Jesus became the Christ or the Christ came upon Jesus but Jesus isn't the Christ in the same way that. That manly P Hall said and I'll come back to this. He says that he realizes divine illumination of his Lodge that as Mason he As Mason his religion must be universal Christ Buddha or Muhammad the name means little he recognizes only the light and not the light.

Bearer.

So the idea then in the Gnostic way of thinking Jesus is not the light. Jesus is the bearer of the light. Muhammad was a bearer of the light. Buddha was a bearer of the light. But Jesus isn't the light.

Jesus isn't the Christ. The Christ came up on Christ on Jesus or Jesus became the Christ. The Christ is different than Jesus. This is all esoteric Gnosticism and let me explain what I mean by esoteric.

So one of the big complaints then that that these esoteric Gnostics have about Christianity is that they'll basically Say you don't understand how to rightly interpret the scriptures and I say well. So how should I interpret them and they'll say well your problem is you're engaging in something called exegesis.

Right. What is exegesis? You read the text and you read out the meaning that was written into the text. So for instance, all right. Think back to when you were a kid, you know, my mom did something Weird on Saturdays when I was about 12 or 13 years old.

She would go and play tennis with her good friend on Saturday mornings and one Saturday morning I woke up and my mom had left me a note. Right and the note said I'm going to be playing tennis With Lily and Joni this morning and I'll be back sometime in the early afternoon.

And while I'm gone, I expect you to Empty the dishwasher. I want you to wash your father's car. I want you to vacuum your room and dust off the furniture in your room. Pretty specific stuff, right? Oh, and I also want you to take all your laundry and put it in the laundry room.

So when I get home, all I have to do is put it into the washing machine. This was the note. Right, so I would exegete the note and I would then get busy.

Of course.

I had this amazing superpower that most kids did not have and that was the ability that when my mom was only 10 minutes Out from arriving I could accomplish all the chores in 10 minutes time. Okay, not well.

Okay.

The quality was lacking but the task was done because Saturday morning was what time for cartoons, right? But the idea then is is that we exegete out the note because my mom had embedded meaning in there using Vocabulary and words that I understood so that I could understand the real meaning of the message now the esoteric Diagnostics will say when it comes to religious text if you just read the first level.

Okay, Jesus died for our sins. He rose bodily from the grave. He was born of the Virgin Mary suffered under Pontius Pilate. That's all what they would call exoteric mumbo-jumbo. Okay, and they would say that's not the real meaning of the Bible exegesis and an S Exoteric reading of the scriptures is Going to deceive you.

That's the wool that's keeping you from seeing the real reality. And so what happens is is that in the Gnostic way of thinking then you have to be initiated you go through initiation Ceremonies and these ceremonies are the best way I could describe them is that they are Like little mini drama plays and people play different roles.

Okay, have you seen the movie V for Vendetta. Okay V for Vendetta. This is a purely Masonic movie and I mean that so let me explain to you All right, the main character V. He wears a mask, right? You don't know who he is because he's constantly wearing a mask.

But what do you know about him? He's got major burn scars all over his body, right? He's got burn scars all over his body and you never get to see his face. He's always hidden behind a mask and then you have the second character.

Her name is Evie. Evie, which is not a name chosen randomly sounds a lot like Eve, you know the mother of the of us all okay, and she is. She's well being chased and hunted down by an evil evil political system, which basically looks like Christianity had a child with Sharia law.

Okay, best way I can put it. It's like the Nazis Sharia law and Christianity had a baby and then this created the government, right? And their symbol was a cross with two two bars. Right a red cross with two bars, which by the way is called the cross of Lorraine.

But that's a different story. And so what happens is is that the the big build-up leads to Evie being quote Captured her having a bag put over her head and her taken to what she thinks is a prison complex where she.

Basically.

Experiences being tortured and then eventually quote being so confident that she's willing to die and in a sense. She dies and rises again, but then she learns that none of it was real. That it was just a play put on by V, right.

And.

That.

Symbolizes a Gnostic or Masonic initiation ceremony the when you are initiated into Freemasonry as well as the hermetic order of the Golden Dawn the Eastern Star. The first first Initiation ceremony that you go through your hood winked which means you have a black bag put over your head.

And you go you in this play this little mini drama that takes place inside of these inside these temples. You then take on the character in the first in the first initiation ceremony take on the character of Hiram of beef.

Who's not even a real character? But he was supposedly the guy who built Solomon's temple and designed it and he refused to give away his secrets. To these ruffians who who are demanding that he give it and then he's smacked on the head with a mallet killed and you're playing Hiram my beef you get smacked on the head with a mallet you fall over backwards into a tarp and then they pray over Your dead body, but then you rise again, right?

It's all this this idea and the idea then behind it is is that these little mini dramas that they put on these initiation ceremonies they contain a little bit of light and With each ceremony that you go through the light gets brighter and brighter and you're supposed to reflect on what's the real meaning?

And the idea then is is that they teach you then through these initiation ceremonies how? To to kind of in embrace the secret knowledge the Esoteric meaning and how to read things. Basically read out the spirit the true spiritual meaning of the biblical text so that you can see it's really all about the fertility Deity that Jesus is supposed to be that's the idea behind it.

Right.

Right, and by the way in the movie V for Vendetta the character that plays V All right, he is actually and this and this is an important bit. He's he's a stand-in for a very important hero within kind of Gnostic and Masonic lore.

And that's a fellow Jacques de Molay. Okay, and so it's he V is Jacques de Molay who was tortured he was the Grand Master of of the Knights Templar. Who was himself a Gnostic and he was tortured to give up his secrets and he wouldn't give them up and he was eventually burned on a spit and so V the character V is a stand-in for for For Jacques de Molay and the whole idea of V for Vendetta is basically saying the Gnostics their goal is to get their vengeance on Christianity that's why the bad evil political system in the movie V for Vendetta is is portrayed as like, you know, kind of like Christian Patriarchy run them run amok, right?

That's the whole reason behind it because that how how they portray Christianity in that is Exactly the way once you once you embrace this esoteric meaning you believe that Christianity biblical Christianity is the enemy.

It is the enemy of all that is good and it is the enemy that that is choosing to oppress you and to keep you from Knowing the truth and your true self and you to experience enlightenment. And so always in the Gnostic and Masonic Narratives Christianity is always the evil one.

So then go back to like remember the movie the Da Vinci Code in the book that came out in the Da Vinci Code. That is a pure Gnostic You know Masonic concept and even though you sit there and go none of this can be historically validated when it comes to the Gnostic initiations and Gnostic legends whether or not these things are Actually take place in human history does not matter to them these ceremonies and these legends Convey esoteric truth that you're supposed to reflect on.

So that you can again have more and more light so that you can finally see the truth. That's the whole point of them. And so I'll tell you another Gnostic legend then In that is that it is the legend of Jacques de Molay.

So as it goes and I'll tell you a little bit of how the story works. How this worked out then is that If you know the story of the Knights Templar the Knights Templar were these monk warrior priests who were used by the Roman Roman Catholic Church for the purpose of first waging war against the Muslims in the Holy Land for the purpose of Recapturing the Holy Land and then the Knights Templar then were also tasked with then protecting Pilgrims who wanted to visit the Holy Land from Europe now if you remember back in the day.

They didn't have airplanes and cars and things like this. So traveling was something that can get you in a lot of danger. And so the Templars were the ones who were the armed warrior monks who would then escort Pilgrims from Europe to the Holy Land and they practically invented checking accounts and Banking as we know it today because you can't carry gold with you on a trip like that and expect to you know to arrive alive.

So what would happen is is that if you were a pilgrim you would you would check in at a Knights Templar? monastery a templary and You would turn in your gold at the at that first station and then they would create a passbook for you.

That and then they would give you they would give you a password and they would give the Templar Knight a Password and then in order to get your money the two passwords had to be given on the other end of the journey so that you Can get money and you can write checks against what you deposited and it's it's it's interesting how they create all these little codes and stuff.

Like that, but as the legend goes and this and no this doesn't matter if this is really truly history or not. This is how the legend goes that once the Templars took control of Jerusalem from the Muslims.

That they set up their base of operations in Solomon's temple. This is true, by the way, historically that part and they began engaging in archaeological digs. To to get the mysteries of the things that were supposedly hidden under the temple.

So if you ever if you remember the movie Indiana Jones and the and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, right? Okay, where was the where was the Lost Ark located? What was the name of the place where it was located where they eventually found it?

The Well of Souls the Well of Souls funny enough as the as the Templar legend goes. They found the Ark of the Covenant in the Well of Souls, but it wasn't in Egypt. The Well of Souls was part of that the temple complex that you know.

So if you if you've heard of the Dome of the Rock that's currently in Jerusalem on the Temple Mount you if you want to see the inside of that go to Go to like Google Earth or go to Google Maps and there are people who've taken like three-dimensional.
