First, I will disclaimer, I didn't finish reading your post before I commented.
Second, I was not saying the Masons were the elite I was referring to. I have added who I was referring to specifically in the posts that follow.
I referred to the Masons as a example of misunderstood propaganda.
Agreed, IMHO, FM is simply a good example of an occultic group that performs many human good works on a basis that will not be recognized as righteous in the final judgment. It also has some adherants that are dedicated to conspiring with fallen angels and exhibit the most evil of intentions with a studied deception.
There are similarities between that group and many other disparate groups in the world today. Many which have significant power and authority.
We are to obey the authorities per Scripture, yet at the sounding of the trumpets, the elders in heaven will proclaim all power, riches, wisdom, strngth, honor praise and glory to our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
I wonder how much of the elite behavior today is influenced by said authorities.
