The true one, over the years I have been utterly shocked at what some witnesses don't know about their own beliefs. As for the Mason-Russell connection there seems to be evidence pointing both ways. However one cannot deny he did at least "borrow" some of their symbols.
I responded to this earlier, but my response evidently went into oblivion.
Actually, there are thousands of pages of evidence that Russell was not a member of the Freemasons organization, and zero actual evidence that he was a member of the Freemasons' organization. What is often presented as "evidence" is actually that fabricated with human imagination, so that what is being imagined is the evidence.
Russell did on a very few occasions borrowed (or, as some Freemasons have claimed, misrepresented), some of the Freemasons' symbology, even as he used many other things in the world to illustrate various points in the Bible. (For example, in the sermon on "The Temple of God") He certainly never, ever, used such symbology to advocate the goals of the Freemasons, or to lure people into Freemasonry.
