That ideology is indeed righteous and wonderful, regardless of the fact that many people abuse the term — the term is good, the abusers aren’t.<br /><br />Nowhere does this post suggest Masonry is benign. So why even bring that up?<br /><br />Just because you had a bad experience with a supposed evangelical background, that doesn’t make evangelical churches bad. Evangelism is preached in the New Testament and not made up by man.<br /> Do you really choose to follow ALL the commandments of God, ALL the ones He gave to the Jews? Do you really believe you follow the commands without sinning?<br /><br />The command about the Sabbath was/is only for the Jews, the people of Israel, as I PROVE here: https://watchmansbagpipes.blogspot.com/2010/05/are-christians-required-to-keep-sabbath.html<br /><br />And just who are the “we” you claim “to do the words of the VATICAN”? And, no, the word doesn’t mean what you claim it means.<br /><br />You sound very much like a legalistic KJV Only heretic.<br />Glenn E.

Every religion makes stuff up. Apparently we are not to follow the God who made earth & created all. I choose to follow the Commandments of The All Mighty. <br /><br />God said & Yeshua (who only did the Will Works & Words of His Father) said "If you love Me, you will keep My commandments." So we throw out REMEMBER THE SABBATH & <br />KEEP IT HOLY. God said, "If we reject one commandment we've rejected all." So we choose to do the words of the VATICAN {which means divining serpent}. Figure that out.<br /><br />Yeshua said, "I did not come to abolish the law ~ I came to fulfill the law..." is twisted by Evangelicals to say that we know longer follow the commandments ~ Jesus changed that. Which he did NOT. HE CAME TO FULFILL. Evangelicals<br />twist the Set Apart words. <br /><br />Follow the true Father always. Believe in Jesus\Yeshua with all heart soul mind. <br /><br />Yeshua taught the LAW (TORAH) why would anyone think He taught the new Covent when it wasn't written for about 300yrs after Yeshua's death and resurrection? Baptists Methodists, Lutherans, Episcopalians, Catholics all MAKE STUFF UP rather than follow the scriptures. Masonry is just one more abberation & twist of truth.<br /><br />I pray that we all wake up to the fullness of our Divine Father ~ Yeshua & Beautiful Set Apart Spirit.<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15745908720264907129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-29547594432699344572015-09-21T12:38:24.576-05:002015-09-21T12:38:24.576-05:00Unknown,

Freemasonry is a religious cult - period.<br /><br />IF you are a "fellow Christian," then you are WRONG to support Freemasonry. PERIOD.<br /><br />And, no, the holiday celebrations used by the Church (not talking about Santa or the Easter bunny) are NOT of pagan origin. That nonsensical claim is right out of the KJV Only playbook, with the leader Jack Chick. If you look over my blog, you will find article addressing such claims. <br /><br />I have no plank in my eye. But you have a lack of education on these topics.Glenn E.

The book was written before he joined the lodge, and discusses in depth all of the charges that were mentioned above. <br /><br />Might I also mention, as a fellow Christian, that a reevaluation of the "Christian ceremonies" that are partook of in Church might be necessary. Especially the holidays, are not the origins blasphemous and pagan?

I have turned down jobs for this reason, and playing for anything to do with Freemasonry has been included in my, "Sorry, my conscience won't allow me to do that."Glenn E.

This is so...Thank you very much for the commentary. This is something I've known more through the Holy Spirit than by comparing their occultism against scripture. Your article shines the light of God's word on their occult practices in a way that can't be ignored. Oddly I've actually attended an evangelical church which meets in a Masonic Temple and have met dyed-in-the-wool pagans who are members of the Masons and I could never understand why.

All of which you have stated is true as it relates to the research I have conducted within the last five years. In essence, a social club they may appear to be, however, it is a CULT practicing the occult, shrouding itself as an angel of light by the good works they do. Masons proudly display their good works through boasting and bragging, using all forms to media to promote "the good works they perform," which is in contrast to Matthew 6. <br /><br />Currently, a freemason has become a attending member of my former church. During my husband's Bible study, this man clearly denied everything you mentioned in this article, stating "Freemasonry is a good organization, made up of many good Christian men who desire to perform good deeds. There is nothing bad about masonry."<br /><br />So you see, the occult is very much alive and well within the institutional church systems disguising itself as light and brainwashing those who have no idea what freemasonry entails. But then again, it is not surprising as this is what a deaconess told me when I questioned yoga, "We can accept yoga just as long as they don't do the meditation part." Now, my former church has a yoga guru leading the youth group......and the people love it so.<br /><br />In the end, I see the organized church leading the way for persecution against true born again believers and followers of Jesus Christ, our Risen Savior. I may be wrong, and I hope I am, but when your former church accepts the movie "Heaven is For Real" as sound doctrine, I have this sick feeling in my soul, that eventually I may be right.<br /><br />May God continue to pour out His mercy and His grace upon a people who seem to have lost their way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043971967398769903.post-8397820208780946382014-07-23T18:49:19.065-05:002014-07-23T18:49:19.065-05:00Well, there are many Christians who are Masons, be...Well, there are many Christians who are Masons, because they live with intellectual schizophrenia. The lowest degree Mason - the Entered Apprentice - must take that blood oath, but so many people claim it it just for fun and not serious. My question then is why the would ask God's help in keeping said oath if it wasn't serious!Glenn E.

I didn't think anything of it at the time (I was a non-believer and it just looked like a social club to me). Hope he wasn't into that creepy stuff. He always seemed like an authentic believer.Neilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01351286913547309232noreply@blogger.com
