Why No Christian Should Be A Freemason 

By David J. Stewart 


 Well for starters, Freemasonry membership requires an OATH that denies
Jesus! Masons are required to address their lodge's god, a false god, as
The
Great Architect. Members are strictly forbidden from promoting the name
of
Jesus above other gods. This "Great Architect" is without a doubt, Satan.
At
the heart of Freemasonry is the unbiblical idea that all religions
worship
the same god, I.e., The Great Architect of the Universe. Christians are
subtly lured into the lodge under the pretense of good intentions.
Freemason
leaders claim that god is so deep, omnipotent, and unsearchable that they
dare not DEFINE who He is; hence, they prefer to simply address Him as
"The
Great Architect" instead. The major flaw with such erroneous thinking is
that it is a total denial of the Word of God. The Bible clearly defines
who
God is--Jesus Christ!


Freemasonry Forbids Promoting Jesus Over Other gods!


The Bible clearly defines who God is--Jesus Christ! Colossians 2:9 tells
us
that the fulness of the GODHEAD dwelt in the body of our Lord Jesus
Christ..
 "For in him (Jesus) dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily."
Again
we read in 1st Timothy3:16, "And without controversy great is the mystery
of
godliness: God was manifest in the flesh..." Lest you should still have
any
doubt, look at John 1:1-2,14... "In the beginning was the Word, and the
Word
was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with
God..
 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his
glory,
the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and
truth."
In Revelation 1:8 Jesus professed, "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning
and
the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to
come,
the Almighty." Show that verse to any Jehovah's Witness who denies that
Jesus is "Almighty" God. Likewise, Freemasonry dethrones Jesus Christ as
the
Almighty God of the entire universe. How wicked and sinful for any
professed
Christian to join an organization that forbids members from preaching the
Gospel of Jesus Christ crucified. 


Higher Levels Kept Secret to Hide Satanic Organization


Few masons rise above the first few levels, 33rd being the highest level.
At
the higher levels, members are made aware of the true god of
Freemasonry--Lucifer, the angel of light. Each progressive step of
Freemasonry is supposed to bring with it a greater enlightenment. But why
the secrecy? The word "occult" means hidden; hence, Freemasonry is
definitely an occult group. What a sharp contrast from the words of Jesus
in
John 18:20, "Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever
taught
in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and
in
secret have I said nothing." What beautiful Words spoken by the Lord...
IN
SECRET HAVE I DONE NOTHING. Jesus had nothing to hide. Listen friend, the
truth doesn't need to be hid. Any organization that wants to keep you in
the
dark about something is not an organization you should be involved in.
Why
the secrecy? If they have nothing to hide, then why are they hiding it?
We
are assured in 2nd Peter 1:20, "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of
the
scripture is of any private interpretation." Beware of any false prophet,
like Pat Robertson, who claims to receive unique messages from God. The
same
Biblical truths available to you are available to me, and vise versa. God
has made His Word freely available to all mankind, and no one has a market
on God. 

Freemasonry is secretive for good reason, to hide their true devilish
roots!
Even still, a brief study of famous Freemasons reveals that some of the
world's most renowned Satanists, like Albert Pike and Aleister Crowley,
were
Freemasons. 

Crowley was the Master Satanist of the 20th Century 

Aleister Crowley was a 33rd degree Freemason! The hierarchy of the
Secret-Societies have been deeply involved in the Black-Occult since they
have existed. This includes the ritual sacrifice of children and babies.
This knowledge has been kept from the minds of society at large until more
recently. It is now only a matter of time when the masses of the people
become fully aware of the real agenda behind the secret societies and the
true purpose of why they exist. 


Aleister Crowley - Initiated to the highest levels of Freemasonry and
high
priest of the Golden Dawn, said: "A white male child of perfect innocence
and intelligence makes the most suitable victim." 

In the U.S. Each year 400,000 children are reported missing.

In the UK 98,000 children are reported missing. 




Why would any Christian want to be part of such a vile and wicked
organization? 2nd Corinthians 6:14 strictly forbids Freemasonry
membership..
 "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what
fellowship
hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light
with
darkness?" Listen once again to the precious Words of the Lord Jesus in
Luke
11:33... "No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret
place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come
in
may see the light." Did you get that? Freemasonry requires you to put
your
candle IN A SECRET PLACE, so others won't see the Light of the Gospel.
This
is EXACTLY what Satan does--2nd Corinthians 4:4 states, "In whom the god
of
this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the
light
of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine
unto
them." Satan blinds people from seeing THE LIGHT of the glorious Gospel
of
Christ. Freemasonry does the exact SAME thing because it is Satan's
organization. Satan always operates in secrecy, i.e., the occult, because
otherwise Christians who love the Word of God would expose him on the
spot.
There need be no secrecy in the New Testament church. 


Soulwinning Not Allowed in Freemason Lodges


If a Christian takes seriously the Great Commission from Jesus in Matthew
28:19-20, he couldn't be comfortable in any organization that forbids
witnessing to unbelievers. Freemasonry is just another form of ecumenism,
where each lodge member is left to fend for himself concerning what he
believes. This cancels any opportunity for soulwinning. Soulwinning is
directly opposed to ecumenism. Ecumenism is being united by error; but God
commands us as His children to be divided over truth. Ecumenism is willing
to sacrifice truth on the alter of compromise. Ecumenism is a vehicle
which
is headed for a one-world religion (i.e., the beast system). As
Christians,
we need to catch a different vehicle going the other way... riding the
Word
of God! Ecumenicalism teaches that there are many ways to God; BUT, in
John
14:6 Jesus stated the exact opposite... "Jesus saith unto him, I am the
way,
the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." It's
Jesus or Hell, turn or burn! Either turn to the Savior for the forgiveness
of your sins, or be condemned to the Lake of Fire for all eternity without
hope (John 3:16; Acts 4:10-12; Romans 10:9-13; 2nd Thessalonians 1:8;
Revelation 20:15). 


Tragically, 37% of the Freemasonry membership in the U.S. are Southern
Baptists. Is it any wonder why a Southern Baptist church recently called
an
ordained lesbian to be their pastor? Freemasonry is a Trojan Horse filled
with Satanism. 




Because the devil is so subtle, nearly everyone is in the dark concerning
the true agenda of Freemasonry, including the members themselves. The fact
that seventy-five percent of active masons never advance beyond the third
level--in a system consisting of thirty-three degrees--indicates that the
ignorant majority at the base of the pyramid are consistently manipulated
by
the evil minority at the top. Furthermore, unlike the other degrees in
the
Scottish Rite, the thirty-third degree cannot be earned; it can only be
bestowed upon a member by the Supreme Council. Thus the Council controls
who
becomes a member of the inner circle.
