Did Joseph Smith Copy the Freemasons, or Did THEY Copy HIM? (26 min)
Journey into the depths of religious history and uncover the timeless truths that connect ancient teachings to modern faith in this illuminating video. The narrative begins with the biblical story of God breathing life into Adam, a foundational theme that resonates across different religious traditions. The Book of Mormon, with its rich tapestry of teachings, offers a unique perspective on these themes, particularly through King Benjamin's sermon, which mirrors aspects of temple ceremonies. This suggests that Joseph Smith's revelations were not mere copies of Masonic rituals but a restoration of ancient knowledge. 📖 On Ward Radio, Cardon Ellis and his guests, including Andrew Miller, engage in a lively discussion about these connections. They explore how these ancient teachings have been preserved and reintroduced, challenging the simplistic view that they were borrowed from Freemasonry. Instead, they highlight the deep historical roots of these practices, tracing them back to early Christianity and beyond. The video also examines the role of apologetics in addressing criticisms and defending the faith.
