Scott Wolter

I'm going to ask you a question.

Are you familiar with something called the Telpiat tomb?

I apologize, because to me, this is just second nature, right?

And to me, it's obvious, and I don't even think about it until I have to think about it.

You've just forced me to go back and say, oh, that's right, not everybody thinks the way you do, Scott.

But I've been involved in this for a long time, so it's become pretty...

like I said, second nature.

But yes, I mean, when we go back to the time of Jesus and John the Baptist, you know, John the Baptist was, you know, the initiator.

He was the one who initiated Jesus.

Most Roman Christians are very familiar with the image of Jesus or his real name was Yeshua.

And that's the proper term we should be using.

But I think for the audience, we'll just go with Jesus because that's second nature to them.

But anyway, there's this baptism ritual where John the Baptist is taking a clamshell and he's pouring water over Jesus' head and he's being baptized.

Well, if you look at many of these images of this particular scene, there are clues that tell you that this was indeed not a baptism per se, but an initiation.

And, you know, being a Freemason, I know what signs, symbols, and tokens to look for.

And I'll just give you one for example.

Sometimes when you see Jesus standing there and he's being baptized or initiated, he'll have his feet in a 90-degree angle like this.

The Freemasons that are listening will know exactly what I'm talking about.

Sometimes you will see the arm in a 90-degree position.

There will be other symbols around that will tell you that this is an initiation.
