How Does God Relate To Freemasonry?

 by Rita Williams - Cephas Ministries 8.26.2004

 

Freemasonry goes way to the Sumerians who lived in the valley of the Euphrates, and who were succeeded by the Semites. The Semites, who succeeded the older race transformed the word "imga" into :mag" to suit . From this root-word, "mag" belonging to the Assyrian branch of the great Semitic race, has come various transformations the words: Mason, Magic and Imagination making people believe that they are the wisest, holiest, most revered of men. Today we call them the Illuminati, in other words the enlightened ones. Most kings as well as presidential leaders use these types of men to run their countries.

Biblical King Nebuchadnezzar is described in the Book of Daniel: "I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts upon my bed and the visions of my head troubled me. Therefore made I a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream. Then came in the magicians, the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers: and I told the dream before them; but they did not make known unto me the interpretation thereof. (Daniel 4:5-7). In Daniel 4:9 we find that the magicians are occupied by spirits. That is where they receive their wisdom. "O Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in thee, and no secret troubleth thee, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and the interpretation thereof." The word god is a small god.

A known fact is that Hitler used these magicians as well as President Reagan and I could name many more.

Masonic brethren labored in the erection of 'Sol' 'om' 'on's Temple. 'Sol' is the Latin name of the Sun-God, Phoebus. 'Om' is the Hindu name of Deity. 'O' is the Sun-God of Heliopolis, Egypt. Sol-Om-On (Solomon) represents the Grand Master of the universe. The Masonic Temple is the mansion of the Sun. When you look at European cathedrals as well as Solomon's Temple you would get the impression that it is humanly impossible to build such structures. That reminds me of the pyramids which were also constructed by Masons and to this day they can't figure out how it was done. They seem to be indestructible.

It was done under the guidance of the spirit world of evil spirits. Astrologers and Wise Men sell their souls for knowledge and talents that the ordinary person cannot compete with. You will find that composers and poets, scientists, philosophers in Europe who wrote beautiful music, poetry, came up with new ideas, and developed philosophies that such as Mozart, Buddha, Socrates, they were members of the Masonry. Many movie stars attained lasting fame were Masons like Red Skelton and Gene Autry. Yes even Popes were involved in the craft as well as Billy Graham and other evangelists. Scientists get their information from the spirit realm as. The whole Rock n Roll movement came from the spirit realm.

King Solomon was the product of King David and Bath-sheba, the woman David lusted after and ordered to kill over. In other words she was David's downfall. God could not let David build the Second Temple because of his behavior. God gave Solomon the privilege to build and made Solomon the richest and wisest man of his time. So what did Solomon do with this privilege but again betray God. He married 700 wives and had 300 concubines from all over the world. The women brought in their beliefs and corrupted the Temple rituals which led to total destruction of Solomon's Temple.

"Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless even him did outlandish women cause to sin. Shall we then hearken unto you to do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange wives? And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son in law to Sanballat the Horonite: therefore I chased him from me. Remember them, O my God, because they have defiled the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites. (Nehemiah 13:26-29)

Mind you, the Second Temple of the Lord was most precious to Israelis because they could get temporary relief from their sins by making animal sacrifices and through the Aaronic Priesthood get God's forgiveness. The Third Temple is yet to be built but will get built when Israeli's scream to God for mercy because they will be attacked by the whole world one of these days.

The Bible calls for a Third Temple and another round of Solomon's Temple which will end up in the Antichrist's hands because their hearts have been so hardened from sin.

Solomon's Temple was built with the knowledge of astrology which is also a religion. Early Masons cast about for an explanation of the visible universe. The Temple was first imagined (an image in the mind) and then constructed of wood and stone. What does God say about imagination.

Genesis 6:4-7 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God [fallen angels] came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them." That is where Noah came in and God drowned everything but one family. This is also called a water Baptism of the earth. There will be second Baptism of Fire at some point in history when God will cleanse the world with fire.

We are experiencing to this day a repeat of these fallen angels which was prophesied in Deuteronomy. Angels are spirits and people open up to those spirits who wish to occupy hearts like the Holy Spirit, but not to be holy but to receive privileges that ordinary people who earn their living by the sweat of their brow as God ordained, do not receive.

God spoke to Moses in Deuteronomy 31:19-30 "Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel. For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.

"And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their imagination which they go about, even now, before I have brought them into the land which I sware. Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel. And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and I will be with thee.

"And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished, That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying, Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee. For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?

"Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to record against them. For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands. And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended."

Why did a third of the angels leave with Satan when he was demoted into a lower heaven, they liked evil and practice evil. How do they get to practice evil? The same way God practices good here on earth, Satan practices evil by entering people's hearts via imagination.

Lucifer appears as an angel of light 'illumined' and promises enlightenment and it looks good because he will line it up with the Gospel by advocating good deeds, going to church, etc. etc. You will find that Masons represent many social enhancements such as youth organizations, burn hospitals and do many wonderful things that people admire.

The universal principals Lucifer uses are based on God's laws. That is why they work but they work for selfish gain and that is not God inspired. That is how one differentiates whether the inspiration is from God or Lucifer. God uses Lucifer to test us. That is what this life is about. Are we fit to live in heaven with God or are we going to do what Lucifer did and betray God and cause another upheaval in heaven. We can fall for the lie but if we don't give our hearts to it and keep God in first place, He will eventually expose the lie and bring us to the truth. Being involved doesn't condemn us forever. God is merciful and knows that Satan has the power to deceive the whole world. God has made a way to escape the flames of hell by His Son Jesus Christ. All one has to do when confronted with the truth is renounce the brotherhood, disconnect from it and begin getting into the WORD which will protect one from the 7 evil spirits Satan will bring the next time. The Bible states in Luke 11:24-27 When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out. And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked."

The devil hates Scripture. Scripture will make him back away over time. It is very difficult to make the break. Satan fights for everyone he has in his embrace.
 
For human beings to understand the heavenlies it has to be presented to us in some form of physical substance which involves our five senses. In example God says that Born Again Believers are wheat to Him versus those who don't obey the Gospel are called chaff (weeds). "Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable." (Luke 3:17)

Lucifer uses Solomon's Temple as an imaginary symbol for Masons and weaves pictures among the stars as signs they can depend on when interpreted in Masonic literature. Their understanding of existence is based on the Sun and planets rising every day and they teach that this system influences our daily lives. Doesn't the Moon influence the tide they say. If that's the case there has to be a relationship to the rest of the heavenly bodies.

The signs of the zodiac where developed by Ancient Masons. Their foremost symbol is the compass and square. It was used in figuring out measurements of the heavens and movement of the planets. They drew a circle with the compass and divided the circle into twelve parts that relates to time, 12 hours light and 12 hours dark to give them a handle on movement. 12 hours above and 12 hours below made a circle of 360 degrees. 360 degrees are equivalent to one day of time. It was extremely clever because it also relates to location anywhere on the planet. Applying longitude and latitude you get location which is based on Greenwich Village time which is the zero point from where that system is mearsured.

To get more modern you can call this the matrix which acts upon a person's life. The planets move within this circle divided up in 12 departments of our lives, business, children, marriage, etc. and the planets influence a person's life by position to each other and the location by longitude and latitude. Lucifer teaches that two people cannot be born in exact same moment in the exact same place therefore all individuals are unique from a planetary perspective.

These magi developed signs in the heavens depicting constellations such as Virgo, Scorpio, Aires and so forth. The good and bad influence is measured by how many degrees a planet is removed from another. Opposition and ninety degrees predict bad and a hundred and twenty or sixty degrees predict good. There are also minor aspects. Lucifer claims that is God's way of running everyone's life so He doesn't have to worry about making things happen for every person. It is automatic. People buy into it because they want to know what's ahead and how they can protect themselves from stressful periods.

We know that Napoleon was a member of the craft and so was Adolf Hitler. They both self destructed and took many lives with them. Why you ask? Because Lucifer is a liar. Astrology is a complete fraud. The reason it may often feel like it is true especially when we apply the various signs and categorize people and watch their behavior it seems to fit but that's because we are operating in our imagination. We begin to live in an imaginary world and see things from that point of view. That is where the blindness comes in that God talks about in the Scriptures. The delusion is driving the apostasy, which is rampant today.

Masons sought out correspondences of nature and built their own priesthood around it. The word 'religion' is derived from the Latin "re" (back), and "ligare" (to bind), and means literally, to bind back. Masons collected 'truths' (what they called it) and bound them together for future generations. Of these 'truths' were developed symbols which are used as a secret code to signal to people just like the cross signals to believers that they are among their own or among believers. If that wasn't enough, very specific hand shakes taught during their rituals, are another form of communication.

'Sol', was elected as the symbol of the controlling power of the universe - in other words 'Deity'. Who is 'Sol' none other than the Sun. The Sun is the Masonic God. You will find that most all religions are Sun worships even Roman Catholicism.

2 Kings 22:1 "Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned thirty and one years in Jerusalem… And he did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in all the way of David his father, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left."

The repairers of the Temple were unpaid. 2 Kings 22:6 "Unto carpenters, and builders, and masons, and to buy timber and hewn stone to repair the house. A priest found the Book of Law in the Temple and brought it to the King. " 2 Kings 22:11 "And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the book of the law, that he rent his clothes."

God said the following: 2 Kings 22:19-20 "Because thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the LORD, when thou heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have heard thee, saith the LORD. Behold therefore, I will gather thee unto thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered into thy grave in peace; and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which I will bring upon this place. And they brought the king word again."

Jeremiah 19:13-15 And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, shall be defiled as the place of Tophet, because of all the houses upon whose roofs they have burned incense unto all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings unto other gods. Then came Jeremiah from Tophet, whither the LORD had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of the LORD'S house; and said to all the people, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will bring upon this city and upon all her towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it, because they have hardened their necks, that they might not hear my words."

2 Chronicles 33:1-6 "Manasseh was twelve years old when he began to reign, and he reigned fifty and five years in Jerusalem: But did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, like unto the abominations of the heathen, whom the LORD had cast out before the children of Israel. For he built again the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down, and he reared up altars for Baalim, and made groves, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served them. Also he built altars in the house of the LORD, whereof the LORD had said, In Jerusalem shall my name be for ever. And he built altars for all the host of heaven in the two courts of the house of the LORD. And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger." 'Observing times' means Astrology because the planets move.

Again in Zephaniah 1:17 "God promises to deal with people who practice the black magic. "And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung." Zephaniah 1:1-6 " The word of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah… I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the LORD. I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the LORD.

"I will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this place, and the name of the Chemarims with the priests; And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship and that swear by the LORD, and that swear by Malcham; And them that are turned back from the LORD; and those that have not sought the LORD, nor enquired for him."

Baal worship is Sun worship. Thousands of Corporations use symbolism that relates to the Sun or objects that depict the Masonic priesthood. Yes, it is the Melchizedek Priesthood, which is blasphemy. Only God has access to that priesthood and there is only one Melchizedek Priest because the Priesthood grants eternal life. Who is the one who grants eternal life? It is Christ Jesus. John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

Lucifer has been making himself a god for eons unbeknownst to the general public. We think nothing of reading daily horoscopes and participating in many blasphemous activities and still think we are in God's graces when all we are is dung. If it were not for Christ Jesus going to the cross dying for all our sinful behavior, we would all be cast into the fire ultimately.

In the following Scriptures God reveals that He gives us up to worship Lucifer, Baal worship, because we refuse to open up to the Holy Spirit. We prefer to be guided by evil spirits to get as much of an advantage as we can over others.

Acts 7:37-51 "This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear. This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us: To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt, Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

"And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands. Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices by the space of forty years in the wilderness? Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.

"Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen. Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David; Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob. But Solomon built him an house.

"Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet, Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest? Hath not my hand made all these things? Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye."

When you trace backward in history you will find that this solar worship turns into sex worship. Ancient Masons discovered (or they think they did) that sex is supposed to give them creative ability. Many today practice celibacy thinking it will give creative ability, another lie of Satans. Sex worship and Serpent worship are closely related and had their foundation in Astrology.

The Sun thus became the masculine creative energy or the Father of the Universe and the Moon typifying the mother of its manifestations. The Masonic plumb line symbolizes the masculine principle which is a vertical line verses the horizontal which representing the feminine, passive, negative, inert principle. Where the two meet forms a cross representing the union of male and female.

It is also the beginning of angles in this case 90 degrees representing the type of energy released on a person's life. The square in a symbol represents the woman ready to receive the male depicted by the compass. The compass, being an instrument used to draw circles, embodies the idea of a male force meeting a female force at an angle. The plumbline, symbolized by an obelisk, which represents the making of the third member of the human family and that is the child that is the manifestation of sex.

You will find on a Mason the symbol of a compass over a square somewhere. If it is not on their car it is on their finger or on their clothing somewhere because it represents their god. There is also G in the center of this symbol in many cases that typifies the Generation of offspring as the result of physical union.

The way Masons see it, the union of the compass and square form a diamond, the hardest and most precious of stones. With the G in the center it is the diamond in the rough. When ground and polished (life's experiences) it becomes the priceless jewel of the soul. Only by removing the G does it become a diamond without blemish. The God within becomes manifest, a condition that symbolically represented by the Hebrew letters Jod-He-Van-He within the compass and square. The diamond reflects the light of the Divine Sun in full glory the Shekinah.

Walking through all the degrees of Masonry we come to the Sovereign Grand Inspector of General, which in the Lodge is painted with skeletons and skulls and cross-bones. This symbolizes association with the dead in other words they are practicing necromancy.

Deuteronomy 18:10-13 "There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.

The real Masters of this degree have passed the borders of the physical realm and have proved worthy and the jewel of this is the thirty third degree. This emblem is the two headed golden eagle, wings outspread, holding a sword in its talons. Below the wings are 32 stars. Above the eagle's head is a golden crown surmounted by a Maltese cross. The upper bar of the cross touches an inverted radiant trine in its center the number 33.

The two-headed eagle represents the fusion of two spiritually evolved souls who have obeyed the inner promptings of their sexual natures. There is a belt suspended from the sword in this emblem signifies "To me God's Will is Law." Order has been established from Chaos. If you have noticed, humanity seems to be bent on creating chaos and the Antichrist will then come along and promise to bring order.

The Maltese cross indicates the beginning of a new cycle; which opens up vistas and possibilities undreamed of by man. This is Lucifer's promise to those who are willing to hand their eternal life to him to get what they want out of life.

To show you how prevalent this symbolism is, Trinity Broadcasting uses the crown and Maltese Cross in their crest so does the Queen of England who is known for being the head of the Lodge of the Garter. What I recently discovered on my grandson who enlisted in the infantry. On his chest, on the left side of his uniform, he wears a Maltese Cross. I was shocked. Hitler used that cross to the max and so does the Pope of the Roman Empire. If you will notice on his clothing the cross is embroidered. I watched a series of videos replaying the visit of the Pope in Jerusalem in the year 2000, he spoke of his wish to begin over since Judeans, Christians and Muslims are all under a mono theistic God they have a lot in common to begin with and why not start over and do a better job of it together in unity. Well guess what, even though he did a beautiful job selling Jesus Christ and what He did for us and that we already have eternal life because Jesus shed His blood for our sins, the Pope sold a blasphemous message in the same breath of including Satan worshippers on God's altar. We can only come to one conclusion that the altar is not God's.

Way back in Deuteronomy 18:10-15 God told us that Jesus was to come and that we should listen to Him. He warned us of what was important to Him. "There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.

"For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God. For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do. The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;"

Revelation 21:1-8 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake, which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

Well, there we have it, why Freemasonry is an abomination to God and must be abandoned to save one's soul from eternal fire. Some think that all their friends will be with them and that it can't be that bad in hell. Have you thought is through. How else can God contain evil but with fire because the evil lives forever too. I had a problem with such heavy retribution and almost lost it over that but today I understand that God has a responsibility to carry out, He is the same yesterday, today and forever. He gave His word to Abraham that Abraham was to be the father of many nations. How can that promise be upheld without doing away with evil forever and if fire is the only way he can contain evil, so be it. He came close to giving up on this whole project altogether but someone reminded Him of His promise. Praise God for offering His only begotten Son so we could live even though we are really not worth having. Hallelujah, Amen [ Books used The KJV Bible AMG Publisher and Ancient Masonry, C.C.Zain ]
