The Canonization Of Two Saints John: A Masonic Ritual

VATICAN CITY – Pope Francis declared Popes John XXIII and John Paul II saints before some 800,000 people on Sunday in an unprecedented ceremony made even more historic by the presence of emeritus Pope Benedict XVI in St. Peter's Square. Never before have a reigning pope and a retired pope celebrated Mass together in public, much less at an event honoring two of their most famous predecessors. Benedict's presence was a reflection of the balancing act that Francis envisioned when he decided to canonize John and John Paul together, showing the unity of the Catholic Church by honoring popes beloved by conservatives and progressives alike. source

There is more than meets the eye going on with the double canonization of Popes John XXIII and John Paul II. Over the years many people have attempted to define the hierarchy of the Illuminati organizations. These mysterious bodies seem to be more fluid in their structure than we outsiders can ever know. There is a definite relationship between Freemasonry and the Catholic Church that can be discerned in their respective doctrines, as well as through observing their deeds. This is true despite any shallow vocalizations to distance themselves from one another for our benefit. The two recently canonized Saints John bear witness to this occult relationship between masonry and Catholicism through the masonic festivals of the Two Saints John:

Two Saints John

By history, custom, tradition and ritualistic requirements, the Craft holds in veneration the Festival Days of St. John the Baptist on June 24th, and St. John the Evangelist on December 27th. Any Blue Lodge that forgets either of these important Festival Days forfeits a precious link with the past and loses an opportunity for the renewal of allegiance to everything in Freemasonry symbolized by these Patron Saints.

No satisfactory explanation has yet been advanced to explain why operative Masons adopted these two particular Christian saints, when, for example, St. Thomas, the patron of architecture and building, was already in wide use. source

 Freemasons historically celebrate two feasts of Saint John. The feast of John the Baptist falls on 24 June, and that of John the Evangelist on 27 December, roughly marking mid-summer and mid-winter. During the Eighteenth Century, the Premier Grand Lodge of England and the Grand Lodge of Ireland favored the day of John the Baptist, while the Grand Lodge of Scotland, the Ancient Grand Lodge of England and the Grand Lodge of All England at York installed their Grand Masters on the feast day of John the Evangelist. The United Grand Lodge of England was formed on 27 December 1813. source

 Many millions of people stood in awe at the spectacle of two men, two popes being simultaneously granted the status of sainthood. These two Johns have been portrayed as somewhat polar to one another with the one appealing to the conservative Catholic masses and the other to the more liberal Catholics. This is a framing of false duality or a masonic juxtaposition of "black" against "white":

The image above depicts the masonic Two Saints John. At the northern pole on the right is John the Baptist. This John ventured into his ministry having no example to follow for the Lord had not yet undertaken his ministry. John the Baptist had not seen any of the miracles of Christ nor had he been called personally by Christ and yet having not seen he still believed and prepared the way of the Lord. John the Baptist was a faithful witness even unto death and gave his life for the testimony of Jesus when he was but perhaps 33 years of age.

At the southern pole is John the Evangelist. This John, beloved of the Lord, was given a prophetic vision greater than his peers. In his gospel John the Evangelist reveals more deeply the nature of Christ as God having been given the gift to see with a spiritual discernment that gave him a greater revelation of who Jesus was. John the Evangelist being with the Lord in his last hours on the cross became son to the mother of Jesus by the Lord's own word.

These two men rather than being polar opposites are perhaps different poles of the same spirit, the spirit and body of Jesus Christ. Preceding the Apostles, John the Baptist was the first to give his life for the gospel whereas John the Evangelist outlived all of the other Apostles and died of natural causes at great age having given the entirety of his life to the gospel. The Two Saints John can be seen as "book ends" to the earthly ministry of Jesus. Satan has used the demonic doctrines of Freemasonry to stain the gospel by co-opting the character of those who gave their lives for it in order to deceive the credulous who mistakenly believe that they can safely mingle their Christianity with the occult. The following material reveals the fact that, far from having anything to do with Christianity, the masonic festivals of the Two Saints John are actually satanic Roman paganism in disguise:

JANUS

Janus: Ancient Italic deity, guardian god of portals, doors, and gates; patron of beginnings and endings, c.1500, from Latin Ianus, literally "gate, arched passageway," perhaps from PIE root *ei- (1) "to go" (cognates: Sanskrit yanah "path," Old Church Slavonic jado "to travel"). He is shown as having two faces, one in front the other in back. His temple in Rome was closed only in times of peace. source

Janus is the two faced Roman deity who, as noted above, is the god of  "beginnings and endings," which explains what is truly being shown with the two Johns at either side of the circle dot. Janus' name means "arched passageway" and this reveals to us the meaning of the ubiquitous arch seen in so many masonic artworks:

As you see in the masonic drawing above there is the arch of Janus and note the two pillars. Doesn't there appear to be an analogy between this scenery and the Two Saints John with the two saints being represented here by the two pillars, Jachin and Boaz? Indeed, that is exactly what is depicted:

A symbol special to masonry is the circle with a point in the center placed between two parallel tangent lines. These tangents are said to represent the two St. Johns. What makes this symbolism complete is the fact that the circle represents the annual cycle of the sun thru the zodiac, the point being the sun and the circle being the zodiac. In addition, the age old astronomical sign for the sun is such circle with a center point. The two parallel lines are tangents of the circle at the solstitial points of Cancer and Capricorn. They represent limit points beyond which the sun can never pass in its journey thru the ecliptic plane, in its ascent and descent. Because these two tangent points are symbols for the two solstices, and respectively, the two gates, they also are symbols for the two St. Johns. When in a vertical position, these two tangent lines also represent the two “Pillars of Hercules.” Historically, the gate of Hercules was placed geographically on either side of the Straights of Gibralter. The south pillar was in Africa and the north pillar located in Europe. source

Upon Examination the occult symbolism of the masonic Two Saints John, which is a cover for the Roman god Janus, is an esoteric doctrine that is shared in common between Freemasonry and the Roman Catholic Church. Here is a view of St. Peter's Square showing the Egyptian obelisk with fountains at each side:

This image is actually a highly occult depiction of multiple ancient religious elements:

The obelisk in the center represents the "dot" in the circle and the two fountains represent the Two Saints John. This is actually the "image of Janus," so St. Peter's Square is actually a "portal" and also a place of "initiation", since Janus is the god of portals and initiation. But there is more:

In the center of the circle the place of the "dot" is occupied by the male principle in the form of an Obelisk that was crafted by ancient Egyptian artisans. This is the "phallus of Baal." Immediately beyond that is a four-spoked cross and this is the "star of Baal." Beyond the star of Baal is an eight-spoked star and this is the "star of Shamash." Shamash is a Babylonian god whose name means"sun." Shamash is the god of justice and salvation. Shamash is also identified as Saturn (link). This is all very interesting in light of recent posts. We know that Baal is Nimrod and Saturn is his grandfather, Ham. St. Peter's Square is the image of Ham and Nimrod. Is it also the image of the beast?

Why were these Popes John XXIII and John Paul II picked for this occult ritual? Both of these popes have played key roles in strengthening the foundations of the coming Final World Order. Pope John XXIII issued a papal encyclical titled "Pacem in Terris" (Peace on Earth) on April 11, 1963. In Pacem in Terris Pope John XXIII calls for world government with a governmental authority that trumps every sovereign state:

134. In our own day, however, mutual relationships between States have undergone a far reaching change. On the one hand, the universal common good gives rise to problems of the utmost gravity, complexity and urgency—especially as regards the preservation of the security and peace of the whole world. On the other hand, the rulers of individual nations, being all on an equal footing, largely fail in their efforts to achieve this, however much they multiply their meetings and their endeavors to discover more fitting instruments of justice. And this is no reflection on their sincerity and enterprise. It is merely that their authority is not sufficiently influential.

135. We are thus driven to the conclusion that the shape and structure of political life in the modern world, and the influence exercised by public authority in all the nations of the world are unequal to the task of promoting the common good of all peoples.

138. But this general authority equipped with world-wide power and adequate means for achieving the universal common good cannot be imposed by force. It must be set up with the consent of all nations. If its work is to be effective, it must operate with fairness, absolute impartiality, and with dedication to the common good of all peoples. The forcible imposition by the more powerful nations of a universal authority of this kind would inevitably arouse fears of its being used as an instrument to serve the interests of the few or to take the side of a single nation, and thus the influence and effectiveness of its activity would be undermined. For even though nations may differ widely in material progress and military strength, they are very sensitive as regards their juridical equality and the excellence of their own way of life. They are right, therefore, in their reluctance to submit to an authority imposed by force, established without their co-operation, or not accepted of their own accord. source

They always say that they will not use force and that it is your choice whether or not to participate. In reality behind the scenes those who oppose the NWO are getting into mysterious car crashes, having heart attacks for no good reason, blowing up or spontaneously bursting into flames. You get the picture. And lest we forget:

1 Thessalonians 5:3  For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.

Tyrants have been proffering tyranny as peace for thousands of years. The words of John XXIII sound very good, but if you remember what the Bible says and you believe it, then you know that the good Pope is either a liar or a fool and perhaps he was both.

As the "book end" to John XXIII's promoting of the New World Order is Pope John Paul II doing the same in almost identical terms more than 40 years later on International Peace Day, January 1, 2004:

One feels more than ever the need for a new international order, that brings to fruition the experience and the results achieved in these years by the United Nations.This is an order that is capable of giving adequate solutions to the problems of today, founded on the dignity of the human person, on an integral development of society, on solidarity between rich countries and poor ones, on the sharing of resources and the extraordinary results of scientific and technical progress.Love is the highest and most noble form of relationship between human beings. This conviction has guided me in sending out a message on this World Day of Peace.God helps us to construct all together the "civilisation of love". Only a humanity in which love conquers will be capable of enjoying an authentic and lasting peace.This gift we obtain from Mary. It is she who sustains and accompanies us on the hard and exalted journey to the building of peace.For this we pray with faith, without stinting: Mary, queen of peace, pray for us! source

Like John XXIII, John Paul II tiptoes around the terminology in calling the New World Order a New International Order. He appeals to humanistic desires by stating that this new order shall be founded upon love and human dignity. Then in typical Catholic fashion he shoves Mary in front of Christ. As with John XXIII, John Paul II is either a fool who does not know what his Bible says about peace on earth or he is a liar who knows the truth and conceals it in unrighteousness.
 
To close this post I wish now once again to show you this quote from Alice Bailey's Externalization of the Hierarchy:

In the esoteric group, which is composed of the true spiritual esotericists found in all exoteric occult groups, in the church, by whatever name it may be called, and in Masonry you have the three paths leading to initiation. As yet they are not used, and one of the things that will eventuate--when the new universal religion has sway and the nature of esotericism is understood--will be the utilisation of the banded esoteric organisms, the Masonic organism and the Church organism as initiating centres. source: Alice Bailey, The Externalisation of the Hierarchy, 1957

I keep showing you this particular quote because I believe that it is important to etch into your mind the fact that the day is coming when all Protestant denominations, the Catholics, eastern Religions, mysticism, the masonic groups, the New Agers and all of the black magic satanists will scurry out from what ever filth they have been hiding under to all join hands under the horrid light of Lucifer. And they will all take the mark. If you do not take the mark, then you will not find many if any friends in that New World Order. Every where you turn there will be someone whose sole mission in life at that very moment will be to rat you out. There will be no where to turn, no where to run and no where to hide. Now, of course, there will be some who are able to be hidden according to scripture, but I would not count on being one of them.

The innermost circles of all of the esoteric and religious organizations are already working toward bringing about the rule of Antichrist. It is just a matter of time before God allows them to unleash the beast.
