[Shocking] Tubal Cain
https://trendingbible.blogspot.com/2017/03/shocking-tubal-cain.html
Since the beginning formations of the Brotherhood of the Order of the Quest, the end goal for all who joined was to have peace, unity, wisdom and love on earth. A simple goal to help place an end to the endless wars and human misery that have plagued our planet for thousands of years via a coordinated effort of like minded brothers, where the purpose of our Great Work was to help create a world that was unified under this common banner of peace, love, unity and justice for all. What some may call , "heaven on earth" or even a "Solomon's Temple" that covers the globe.
In order to accomplish this monumental task, Tubal Cain and his descendants were instructed by God in Matthew 10:34 where it is said, "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." Tubal Cain is the widow's son who originally was "a sharpener"—one who whets or sharpens instruments.
In more modern times such as in the most recent translations of the bible we find that he morphs from being one who sharpens instruments for example; a sword, to becoming the "forger of all instruments of bronze and iron" (ESV), or an "instructor of every artificer in brass and iron" (KJV). Hence, he is the Supreme Hierophant or High Priest of commerce, war and materialism which currently rules this 6th Age. Josephus in The Antiquities of the Jews, says that "Tubal exceeded all men in strength, and was very expert and famous in martial performances, ... and first of all invented the art of working brass."'
Josephus in the Antiquities of the Jews, A.D. 93;
TUBAL CAIN IN FREEMASONRY
He was the inventor of edge-tools, and introduced many arts into society which tended towards its improvement and civilization. Tubal Cain is the Vulcan of the Pagans, and is thought to have been closely connected with ancient Freemasonry. Faber says that "all the most remarkable ancient buildings of Greece, Egypt, and Asia Minor, were ascribed to Cabirean or Cyclopean Masons," the descendants of Vulcan, Dhu Balcan, the god Balcan, or Tubal Cain. Oliver says, "In after times Tubal Cain, under the name of Vulcan and his Cyclops, figured as workers in metals and inventors of the mysteries; and hence it is probable that he was the hierophant of a similar institution in his day, copied from the previous system of Seth, and applied to the improvement of schemes more adapted to the physical pursuits of the race to which he belonged."*
For these reasons Tubal Cain has been consecrated among Masons of the present day as an ancient brother. His introduction of the arts of civilization having given the first value to property. Tubal Cain has been considered among Masons as a symbol of worldly possessions.
The first reference to Tubal Cain in Freemasonry is found in the "Legend of the Craft," where he is called "the founder of smith-craft. Tubal Cain was a master at forging weapons in which 33rd degree Freemason and Master Rosicrucian, Manly P. Hall says this about him and his weapons; "The Mason must 'follow in the footsteps of his forefather, Tubal-Cain, who with the mighty strength of the war god hammered his sword into a plowshare."
Tubal Cain is the password given in the Third Degree of Blue Lodge of the Master Mason.

TUBAL CAIN IN THE BIBLE IN END DAYS
Tubal Cain is described in the Bible under Isaiah 2:4 -"He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore." And also in Joel 3:10 - Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weakling say, "I am strong!

Nay, even while Adam was alive, it came to pass that the posterity of Cain became exceedingly wicked, every one successively dying one after the other, more wicked than the former. They were intolerable in war, and vehement in robberies; and if any one were slow to murder people, yet was he bold in his profligate behaviour, in acting unjustly, and doing injury for gain.Tubal Cain had descended from Cain, the son of Lamech and Zillah, and the brother of Naamah, who Tubal is said to be the last soul survivor of the race of Cain after the flood. The Sons of Tubal Cain, his descendants are first recorded in the inscriptions of Tiglath-pileser I, by the King of Assyria in approximately the year 1100 BC. Later they are also reported by Tukulti-ninurta II, Ashurnasipal II, Sargon and Shalmaneserr III, and are mentioned as the Mushki.
