Jacques du Molay (me) was the last Knights Templar grandmaster. The Templars was the richest institution in Europe. King Philip the fair of France (PSP), who was bankrupt, eyed the vast Templar wealth. He and the deep-sea Church’s Pope Clement V declared the Templars as heretics and had them rounded up and tortured to force them to retract for heresy.
The Order of the Poor Brotherhood of the Temple, or later known as the Knights Templar, was the brainchild of Bernard Clairvaux who gathered the nobles and warriors of Europe to manifest the Crusades to regain the Jerusalem Temple. Once, the Jerusalem Temple was regained, the Knights took on the role of protecting Christian pilgrims on route to the Temple. But their actual secret agenda was to dig beneath the Temple, to recover the age-old mysteries and sacred artefacts like the Ark of the Covenant!
The Knights Templar discovered the secrets of Freemasonry and sacred geometry in Jerusalem. This made them the richest institution and became the bankers of Europe. The knowledge of sacred geometry also helped them build the most magnificent Churches of Europe. They were the envy of the Kings of Europe and the Church! Once Jerusalem was lost again to the Muslims, the Knights Templars were not dismantled, but continued to reign as the richest institution in Europe.
The piqued Philip the Fair (PSP), who was going rather insane to know the secrets of the Knights Templars and the reason for their wealth, decided to declare the Knights heretics and rounded them up, and had them tortured so that they divulge their secrets. This is how Freemasonry became known to the Church and Europe. You’d like to call out the hypocritical Church that denounces Freemasonry yet practises it in secrecy!
Not all the Knights were lost. Some of them escaped in a ship, with some Templar wealth, to Scotland. The knights who escaped to Scotland, were responsible for at least one victory of the small Scottish army over the large English armies. The Knights were also responsible for the building of the Rosslyn Church in Scotland, with its strange mystic symbols.
In fact, Earl Henry of Scotland was the first European to set foot in America, as the Templars had divulged to him the secret that they discovered in Jerusalem that there was a land to the West known as `Merica’. This is how America got its name, from the Freemasons; not wrongly credited to Amerigo Vespucci. The Jews had already travelled to America a long time ago!
Now to get to the topic of the Shroud of Turin, Jacques du Molay (me) was tortured and nailed to the cupboard in the Paris Temple. He was then laid down and covered with a cloth. The oils secreted from his body from the torture left their marks on the cloth. That is how the shroud of Turin came into being.
Even after the torture and crucifixion, Jacques du Molay did not retract for heresy. So, he was burnt at the stake. The Parisians who gathered to watched this, searched the ashes for Jacques du Molay’s bones and treated them as holy relics.
