The deception and dangers of Freemasonry! Don't be deceived!

In this seven part series on Freemasonry, Billy Crone from Get a Life ministries exposes the truth on Freemasonry by their own writings, doctrines, video's, symbols, vision and purpose of "The Craft" as it is often called. The light of Freemasonry is a light of deception that the bible reveals in 2 Corinthians 11:12-15 - "But I will continue (apostle Paul writing) doing what I have always done. This will undercut those who are looking for an opportunity to boast that their work is just like ours. These people are false apostles. They are deceitful workers who disguise themselves as apostles of Christ. But I am not surprised! Even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no wonder that his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. In the end they will get the punishment their wicked deeds deserve."

We must not be deceived to believe that Freemasonry is just a philanthropic group, brotherhood, Fraternity, or a lodge for business connections, that is often times what Mason's say. From the book Fast Facts on False Teachings by Ron Carlson and Ed Decker on page 78 - "The bible brings us a very different message about light and darkness, one that brings with it the hope of joy: "We write this to make our joy complete. This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin (1 John 1:4-7)."

Also on page 78 in Fast Facts on False teachings, Ron and Ed continue: How can a Christian Mason say he is lost in darkness and seek to join the Lodge because he needs the light of Freemasonry? The Bible says if you are a Christian and say you are in darkness, you are living a lie, and the truth is not in you. If Christ lives in your life, you have The Light. The Second thing the Christian Mason must ask himself is this: "If I am going to join the lodge, how can I come before a man called The Worshipful Master and bow before him in religious ceremony and say I am lost in darkness?" Jesus said,"No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money (Matthew 6:24)."

There is a third thing we must ask (page 78) is how a Christian can take a pagan blood oath? How can a man who says he is a follower of Jesus Christ swear to have his throat cut from ear to ear and his bowels ripped open and given to the beasts in the field as a penalty for breaking such an ungodly oath? The book of James says - "Above all, my brothers, do not swear - not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. Let your "Yes" be yes, and your "No" no, or you will be condemned (James 5:12).

A few scriptures to remember as you go through this 7 part series on Freemasonry: 

Jesus says, - "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me (John 14:6)."

Paul says, - "There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus 

(1 Timothy 2:5)."

Luke says, - "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12)."

Paul says, - "Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness 

(1 Timothy 4:7)."

Paul says - "Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times, some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons 

(1 Timothy 4:1)."

Paul says, - "But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity 

(2 Timothy 2:19)."

Paul says, - "Preach the word be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths 

(2 Timothy 4:2-4)."

Paul says, - "To the pure, all things are pure, but to the defiled and unbelievers, nothing is pure; but both their minds and their consciences are defiled. They profess to know God, but they deny him by their works. They are detestable, unfit for any good work 

(Titus 1:15-16)."

Paul says, - "Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life (Galatians 6:7-8)."
