Just The Facts...

The Masonic Lodge is a secret society/organization. They use symbols, secret oaths, and rituals to ensure their secrecy. I have known several Masons, and they were kind, likable, and do many good works. However, doing good works is not the same as serving Jesus Christ. The Masons have prayer in their meetings, but they do not pray to one specific god, because it might offend someone's beliefs. I do not believe you can serve more than one god and be faithful to all. There is only one God, and the only way to Him is through the Son. Their authority is the Ritual. Freemasonry is not a religion. They teach that god will reward man with eternal life in the "Celestial Lodge Above." I am familiar with some of the teachings of the Freemasons. I found many inconsistencies. They profess not to be a religion, and yet hold a religious service when a member dies. It offers religious instruction and tells members how to get to heaven. I am very troubled that so many could be lead astray by the false teachings of this organization. Authors, John Ankerberg, John Weldon, and Dillon Durroughs, clearly present the facts for all to read. They write in a clear, concise manner. Arm yourself with information.

To The Point!

I myself am a friend of an entire masonic family for 13 years. I got this book after I first noticed the "anti-masonic" rhetoric online and I could not believe it at all. I was convinced that there was nothing wrong with what my friends participated in.However, Ankerberg & Weldon do a very nice common-sense approach to give the obvious differences between Christianity and Masonry. Through my personal experiences with my friends (who also claim to be Christians) I began to sense something was very wrong, and reading this book confirmed it. My friends eat, breathe, talk and excrete masonry, so I have seen quite a bit.I have taken many of the topics in this book, and along with other sources, and discussed them with one of my masonic friends. She has confirmed all of them through her words and actions.A friend at my church also presented this book to a mason he works with who also confirmed that everything in it is accurate. But yet, he is so deceived that he persists to let this fraternity use him. I cannot cover everything here, but Ankerberg and Weldon actual give an approach that just scratches the surface. You will want to learn more. What I have learned is this (confirming with my masonic friends): they swear oaths that are verbally vile and bloody, put ropes around initiate's bodies--including the neck, make the initiate alter his clothing. They promote making good men better, but provide no provision for "bad" men. They discriminate against people who they consider having "bad mental qualities" even though they have neither medical or legal licenses to make that judgment. They also promote brotherly support of one another, but when my masonic friends had a devastating fire in their home, not a single fraternity member showed up to help them.I don't even need to be a Christian to confirm these things. Just a little discernment is all that is needed. I wish every mason, not even just Christian ones, will read this booklet. It's very short and can bring some things into perspective, even for those of other religious beliefs. These authors I think do a nice job demonstrating how this fraternity is disrespectful for all religious beliefs, not just Christianity.

Masonry called to question

John ankerberg would have a good book here if he did not overstate and dramatize. Some of his teachings talk about the fringe of masonry that the main line does not subscribe to. Thus this is not a good text for those who are trying to liberate friends from the cult. Better texts are available, author Ed Decker is one that I recommend.
