    MASONIC VIEW OF CHRIST


    Jesus was just a man. He was one of the “exemplars,” one of the great men of the past, but not divine and certainly not the only means of redemption of lost mankind.


    He was on a level with other great men of the past like Aristotle, Plato, Pythagoras and Mohammed. His life and legend were no different from that of Krishna, the Hindu sun god.


    He is the “son of Joseph” not the Son of God.


    “In his private petitions a man may petition God or Jehovah, Allah or Buddha, Mohammed or Jesus; he may call upon the God of Israel or the First Great Cause.


    In the Masonic Lodge he hears petition to the Great Architect of the Universe, finding his own deity under that name.


    A hundred paths may wind upward around a mountain at the top they meet.”(Carl H. Claudy, “Introduction to Freemasonry”, p.38)..

    The Call to Christians is REPENT !

    2 Corinthians 6:14-17
    14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

    The Mason must declare his faith in a Supreme Being before he may be initiated.
    But note that he is not required to say, then or ever, what God.

    He may name him as he will, think of him as he pleases; make him impersonal law or personal and anthropomorphic; Freemasonry cares not…God, Great Architect of the Universe, Grand Artificer, Grand Master of the Grand Lodge Above, Jehovah, Allah, Buddha, Vishnu, Shiva, or Great Geometer .

    And,

    Masonry does not specify any God of any creed; she requires merely that you believe in some Deity, give him what name you will….A belief in God is essential to a Mason, but…any God will do, so long as he is your God .

    The removal of the name of Jesus and references to Him in Bible verses used in the ritual are “slight but necessary modifications.” (Albert Mackey, “Masonic Ritualist,” p.272)

    Wonder why the apologists haven’t defended this position ?

    ANY group that claims that salvation is found in anyone other than Jesus is antichrist!

    I’m sure you see how quiet it is concerning this ......most seem afraid to speak out against the wickedness.
