SWAT team resigns because local leaders take a knee, ‘Taking a Knee is a Masonic Ritual’
Entire Hallandale Beach SWAT members resign from team over ‘police chief taking a knee’ https://t.co/p06QKkbdQi

Notice the following:
A south Florida police department’s entire SWAT team resigned Friday, citing the chief of police’s decision to take a knee with protesters calling for an investigation into a 2014 raid in which a black man was fatally shot.
The ten-person team handed over an angry letter of resignation to the Hallandale Beach police chief in which they took aim at Vice Mayor Sabrina Javellana for comparing them to the Minneapolis Police Department that killed George Floyd. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8418593/Entire-south-Florida-SWAT-team-resigns-officials-kneel-protesters.html
While they cited many issues for their resignations, the last straw was when members of the Command Staff took a knee in solidarity, they said, not because of the gesture but because of whom the SWAT team believed they were supporting and what was the reason for the display.
“Lastly and most shockingly,” they said, “having members of the Command Staff taking a knee in solidarity with Vice Mayor Sabrina Javellana (who stated she wants the officers ‘fired and charged’) … https://www.local10.com/news/local/2020/06/13/hallandale-beach-swat-resigns-not-over-taking-a-knee-but-reason-for-display-they-say/
Yes, government officials have upset many police officers.
As far as taking the knee goes, what is shown below should not have happened to George Floyd.

Anyway, some have seen a connection to the Freemasons in the frequent ‘take a knee’ posture many (including several members of the US Congress) have performed. Notice the following:
Taking a Knee is a Masonic Ritual
So … everyone was being requested by the protesters to take a knee in remembrance of George Floyd and if you are white to accept your white privilege by kneeling down in support of those less fortunate that they were not born into a white privileged life.
You are probably wondering why so many police officers are freely taking to one knee a’la Colin Kaepernick back in 2015 during the NFL Season. …
MOSTLY all Police Officers are either members or are aware of the Freemasonic Order and ‘taking a knee’ in the Secretive Masonic Lodge is nothing new to Masons.
In my opinion the majority of people taking to ‘one knee’ have no idea who they are really sending prayer and energy to, but it has nothing to do with white privilege. 06/12/20 https://humansarefree.com/2020/06/taking-a-knee-masonic-ritual.html
“Taking a knee” is a gesture of Masonic allegiance. … The symbolism of kneeling runs deeper than this Masonic ritual: … It was first practiced by human tribes conquered in war, to obtain mercy from the victors. Then it was made a general sign of “respect” from slaves to their owners. “09/30/17 https://www.henrymakow.com/2017/09/taking-a-knee.html
High Freemasonic ritual has been enacted in the form of major public spectacles and news events. … Hiram Abiff is a Freemasonic allegorical figure … Hiram Abiff is also seen as a Jesus Christ figure. …
The Martyrdom of Hiram Abiff ritual involves one participant lying blind-folded on his back flanked on both sides by a row of “brethren” kneeling on one knee. https://gematriaeffect.news/george-floyd-high-masonic-ritual-and-the-martyrdom-of-hiram-abiff/ accessed 06/14/20
Now, let me state I do not believe that most police officers are Freemasons, particularly since Freemasonry has been declining in the USA.
However, several of the goals of Freemasonry are consistent with some of the goals and objectives of some who have been publicly taking a knee.
Freemasonry is a ‘secret society’ (meaning that although the group itself is known, its members are sworn to secrecy about much of what it is and does).
They have the word “Free” as centuries ago, masons were allowed to freely cross national borders in order to build massive buildings. While modern Freemasons are rarely builders of massive monuments anymore, they kept the term “Free,” which seems to imply they are free to learn more about the practices, etc. of Masonry.
Here is some information from an actual Freemason website:
What is Freemasonry?
Freemasonry is the oldest, largest and most widely recognized fraternal organization in the world. Founded in London, England in 1717, its current worldwide membership totals 3.6 million members, 1.6 million of which are in North America. …
As a fraternal organization, Freemasonry unites men of good character who, though of different religious, ethnic, or social backgrounds, share a belief in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of mankind.
The traditions of Freemasonry are founded upon the building of King Solomon’s Temple, and its fraternal ceremonies use the working tools of the stonemasons to symbolize moral lessons and truths. For example, Masons are reminded at Lodge to “meet upon the level of equality, act by the plumb of uprightness, and part upon the square of virtue.” https://www.freemason.com/how-to-join/what-is-freemasonry/ access 08/25/18
The following gives some information about that movement:
Freemasonry is a worldwide fraternal organization. Its members are joined together by shared ideals of both a moral and metaphysical nature, and, in most of its branches, by a common belief in a Supreme Being. Freemasonry is an esoteric art, in that certain aspects of its internal work are not generally revealed to the public. Masons give numerous reasons for this, one of which is that Freemasonry uses an initiatory system of degrees to explore ethical and philosophical issues, and this system is less effective if the observer knows beforehand what will happen. It often calls itself “a peculiar system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols.” …
Religious Tolerance
Opinions about Freemasonry around the world may differ from place to place, but Freemasons always stress non-dogmatism and tolerance (albeit often within certain defined limits). This openness has led to friction between Freemasonry and organizations which hold a negative view of ecumenism, or are themselves intolerant towards other forms of belief and worship. Masons have been opposed throughout history by various religious groups, such as some Protestants and certain Muslims.
In general, there are two doctrinal objections to Freemasonry made by established Christian denominations, Catholic and non-Catholic alike:
- The ecumenical nature of Masonic membership, which is at odds with the claims of exclusivity of belief that distinguish the various religious denominations.
- The “esoteric” aspect of Masonic ritual, which is seen as synonymous with Gnosticism, declared heretical and suppressed by the early Christian church. (Manifestations of Gnosticism also appeared in the Jewish and Muslim communities, as Kabbalah and Sufism respectively; however, these movements have survived within Judaism and Islam.) Gnosticism is identified with the early Christian churches west of the Red Sea, such as the Egyptian and Ethiopean Coptic churches. The Nag Hammadi scrolls, discovered in Egypt, in 1945, which contain such apocrypha as the Gospel of Thomas, are considered to be Gnostic inspired or influenced. Thus, the possible connection between Gnosticism and the mythical Egyptian roots of Freemasonry is a subject of interest. The Rosicrucians, a modern Gnostic movement, claim such a connection.
The most vigorous opposition to the fraternity has come from the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church is openly hostile to Freemasonry, deeming it at least partly responsible for the French Revolution and the resulting decline of the church in Europe. The Knights of Columbus and other Catholic fraternal organizations were established to provide alternatives to Freemasonry for observant Catholics. (Ironically, one of these organizations, Opus Dei, has been the target of accusations similar to those leveled against the Freemasons.) Although most Freemasons in the English-speaking world are Protestant, some Protestant churches hold that Freemasonry is incompatible with being a member of a community of Christian faith, based on the scriptural holding that “no man can serve two masters”.
(Crystal E. Freemasons. http://www.crystalinks.com/freemasons.html accessed 09/18/16)
It is the ecumenical and interfaith bent of the Freemasons that gets me to consider that aspect of them will involve them in events in the end time (see also Will the Interfaith Movement Lead to Peace or Sudden Destruction?). And while many of the getting on one knee have no religious agenda per se, they are showing a type of solidarity with what can be considered as a type of religious symbolism.
Notice also the following from a website of a Freemason lodge:
What is the Mission of Freemasonry?
To promote a way of life that binds like-minded men in a worldwide brotherhood that transcends all religious, ethnic, cultural, social and educational differences;
(Reading Lodge No. 254 Free and Accepted Masons of the State of California. https://reddinglodge.org/mission-and-vision-of-freemasonry/ access 09/04/18)
The Freemasons believe that they promote “a worldwide brotherhood that transcends all religious, ethnic, cultural, social and educational differences.”
Biblical Christians do not believe that any society should transcend/surpass God’s religion as that would be a violation of the first commandment. So, that is one of many issues that those in the Continuing Church of God (CCOG) have with freemasonry).
The Freemasons are a global organization and in certain ways should be considered as globalists or at least supportive of aspects of the globalist agenda. Many (though not all) who ‘took a knee’ also seem to support at least aspects of the globalist agenda–an agenda warned against in scripture (cf. Revelation chapters 13,17, &18), but one consistent with Satan’s Plan.
Related to Freemasonry, the Continuing Church of God put out the following sermon on its ContinuingCOG channel:
What is Freemasonry? How long has it been around? Does Freemasonry point to cataclysms, such as Armageddon in 2022? Were many US founders and presidents Freemasons? Is there a difference between the USA/UK Freemasons and those in continental Europe? Can a biblical Christian be a Freemason? Are Roman Catholics allowed to be Freemasons? Do the Freemasons have a plan that includes an ecumenical Pope? Are Rotarians Freemasons? What about the Illuminati? Are many conspiracies about the Freemasons false? Could Freemasonry play a role in the rise of Europe and the destruction of the Church of Seven Hills?
Here is a link to the sermon: Freemasonry, Armageddon, and Rome.
While most who take a knee related George Floyd have nothing to do with Freemasonry, the symbolism of bowing down to a godless changed social order is consistent with what the Freemasons want and what Satan wants to achieve.
