I am a freemason. As high as you can go. I dont know who you ran into but we certainly arent above the law and were certainly not behind some world domination scheme. Im not vaxed but i know tons of guys in the lodge who are. Some people are conservative some are liberal. Some are old some are young. Most are Christians but not all...no one is a Satanist as you will be rejected outright from membership if so. I wish people would go visit a lodge themselves and take a tour and ask questions heck maybe even join...youll find out real quick how benign freemasonry is.
Sorry you have been led to believe that. But i am a freemason and I am a born again follower of Jesus Christ. These two things arent incompatible, its just that youve been decieved into believing garbage about the freemasons. Freemasons books do not openly worship Satan. Lol. Someone even posted an excerpt on here from Pikes book mentioning Lucifer as proof of satanism except that in their posting it explicitly stated Lucifer (which means light bringer) is a strange name for the prince darkness and mentions how satan corrupts the selfish. He literally is saying how Satan brings a false light. Look youre never going to be convinced of the truth because at the end of the day the truth is WAY more boring than the conspiracy theories. People want to believe conspiracy theories because theyre really interesting, if they werent people wouldnt latch on. Everyone knows how much fake news, garbage speculation, and misinfo there is on the internet but then when its something about freemasonry its all gospel. Dumb. Go visit a lodge ask the questions yourself. Investigate for yourself. I think youll learn its not what you thought
I always chuckle whenever that Pike quote gets tossed around. It's like "OOHH he said the word Lucifer, therefore all Freemasons are devil-worshippers!" It's really a child-like, game-of-telephone level of reason and discernment.
Its sad that thats how you see that. If anything I’m trying to defend the faith of myself and others who are freemasons who are being told theyre not truly Christians because we belong to a body that seeks to better each other and our communities. Just take a moment and think if you were me and you found out how wrong you were first hand and someone unfairly attacked you and accused you of not being a believer in Christ, would you not defend your faith and the organization that is being used as a weapon to attack your faith? Wouldnt you want everyone to know that hey, this thing isnt something evil its actually a good thing and a positive thing? People preach thinking critical all over this site but then theres times like these where that concept is abandoned completely. Think what you want but know that i too put my full eternal hope in Jesus, the one and only messiah, who died for our sins and rose again so we may rise also and regardless ill see you someday and even though youll have been wrong on this issue neither of us will care or even have it on our minds. Well simply be in awe at the presence of our Lord. God bless brother.
I know many Freemasons that are Christians. And they are also not the type of men who make judgments about who is "Christian enough."
I doubt your claim that Blavatsky, Pike, and Hall are Satanists. I know of some cherry-picked quotes from these authors, and they're not referring to the one you call Satan (the Adversary). Also, no freemason is bound to anything written by any of these scholars. You may disagree or agree with their opinions, and you may also make your own estimation of what their qualifications are to write on such subjects. I know freemasons who don't care for Pike, and couldn't even tell you who Blavatsky was. These are the kinds of information you can garner by actually talking to these real men, these good men, rather than relying solely on internet B.S.
This video that keeps getting posted is ridiculous crap. Sure, hollywood is full of Godless heathens, nobody would argue that. But tying it to freemasonry while lacking any foundational evidence leads me to believe that there is an agenda behind the slander ; in the same way the Boy Scouts was destroyed, this fraternal institution of which our nation's founders were members is being targeted.
"X-factor Winner" give me a break. Use discernment.
I agree with mr. GodzillaTrump and second his recommendation to go visit a lodge. Many lodges host pancake breakfasts, barbecues, fish fries, etc. open to the public ( at least before the Coroona they did). You won't find any scary goat-sacrificing pits, or dungeons. You will find the American Flag and the Holy Bible in all (in the USA at least). Most lodges look like VFW halls or sometimes Jehovas Witness buildings. Many lodges were built over a century ago and have historical and interesting things about the town in which they reside.
