Photos of C. H. Spurgeon's Ancient Mystery
Religion of Lucifer Hand Signal
The Lion's Paw (Hidden Hand)
A. Ralph Epperson,
an
historian, author, and lecturer,
who has been researching this ancient hand sign
since the 1970's, explains the meaning of the Lion's Paw hand signal:
The Lion's Paw is a 6000 year old
symbol that is used as a way of communicating to initiates of the world-wide
ANCIENT MYSTERY RELIGION of LUCIFER (Satan) WORSHIP that those who display the
Lion's Paw symbol are also initiates themselves.

The Lion's Paw (which can be displayed openly or inside a jacket) was in use
thousands of years before the institution of Freemasonry, so it is not Masonic
in origin. However, the Freemasons adopted this Ancient Mystery Religion of
Lucifer hand sign and gave it their own Masonic name:
The Sign of the Master of the Second Veil.
To avoid confusion it is important to mention that the Freemasons use
the term, "the Lion's Paw" to name one of their Masonic handshakes (hand
grips) used by those in the Master Mason degree. Other names for this handshake are the "MA-HA-BONE" and the
Strong Grip of the Master Mason. (2)
Below is a photo of Charles Spurgeon
as a young man posing with the Lion's Paw hand signal—commonly referred to as The Hidden Hand. This photo
is found in the
book,
Sketch of the Life and Ministry of Rev. C. H. Spurgeon. From original documents, published in
New York by Sheldon and Co. in 1859. (3)
And again, Charles Spurgeon displaying the the Lion's Paw
(The Hidden Hand) hand signal while wearing a Top Hat, a status symbol
of the elite social class in his time. This photo was taken from my own copy of
the book, C.H. Spurgeon Autobiography: Volume 1 The Early Years,
published by Banner of Truth in 1962 and reprinted in 1973.
Thomas Spurgeon, Charles Spurgeon's son and successor to the
Metropolitan Tabernacle pulpit, posing with the Lion's Paw (Hidden
Hand). (4)
