Freemasonry (part 2)

Masonic Symbolism

 

The Builders Who Rejected The Chief Cornerstone

There is a true saying, "history repeats itself." Freemasonry is the perfect illustration of builders who reject the chief, and in fact, builders of a different foundation than that of the apostles of Jesus. All the way from the ancient history, pass the ages, men have been laying their own foundations, constructing their own tower, with the hope of reaching the sky's limit, and even morso, have continuously refused to retain God in their knowledge. From the tower of Babylonia, to the Masons, men have continued to construct their own principles upon carnal-minded beliefs. To elaborate more on the builders who rejected the chief cornerstone, I will first inform you that the cornerstone who was rejected was Christ, who is the very expression and image of all that the Almighty God has declared concerning his holiness, person, authority, wisdom, and his power. Now if such a man was rejected during and after his death, and even after his resurrection, then anything else they plan to do, or any kind of planning that they do, and any work that man does, can't possibly be expected to succeed in the longrun, not in God's eyes anyway. Any human purpose without the scope of serving God's divine purpose, is not only done in vain, but is destined to end in hopelessness.

The masons have exposed their own folly, and this was prophesied in the holy bible, and I quote, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.." Romans 1:22 Although I borrowed that verse which can be found in the New Testament, there is a passage in the Old Testament which amplifies that one from the new, and it reads:

1 "And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. 2 And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. 3 And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. 4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children built. 6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do; and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. 8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. 9 Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth." Gen 11:1-9

If you think about freemasonry, and if you have read about their beliefs and rituals, you will be able to compare that with the above passage taken from Genesis. The men who began building the tower in the land of Shinar (later renamed Babylon), all had 1 language and 1 plan, and even it was not much different from a conspiracy, or a loss cause. However, God was nowhere to be found in their planning. Secondly, they set themselves up to be proud and arrogant by saying "we will build a tower of brick to reach unto heaven, lest we die." [para] The deception was the pride and arrogance, and the execution of purpose without God.

MY PERSONAL FORESIGHT

A unity of godless men who had attempted to build their own civilization, establish their own kingdoms, and possibly rule the world, and a potentially powerful nation of leaders who chose not to retain God in their knowledge, were headed for corruption which would have eventually lead to destruction-like America is today, per say. The U.S. government with its kingdoms consisting of Free Masons, the Illuminati, 'the 300,' and the bureaucrats, among other terribly wealthy men who are planning to rule the word by establishing the "New World Order," which is why the end times are destined to get much worse. Laws have been passed which are in their very nature, detestable, having no purity or respect toward Godliness, i.e, same-sex marriages (gay rights), prayer banned from schools (heathenist secularism), sexual immorality or impurity in the white house (which is the consequence of forsaking God's law), and abuse of power (bureaucracy); the outlaw of Christian teaching in secular institutions, i.e, tolerance of sexual deviancy/homosexuality vs. sex only after marriage, between a man and a woman (biblical principle), having said all this, I could safely imply that that is why there have been so much violence and crime in the schools, shootings by young kids, drop-outs because of the fear of losing their lives, young teenage pregnancy, drug buying and selling, because young people are not being taught how to overcome stress and other obstacles, except by secularists who teach and inspire idealism, atheism, humanism, as opposed to Christ's teachings. Education and the business world are mostly centered on the idea of "earning the dollar," rather than teaching what is best for young people, and doing a job for the interest of bettering the community and environment, thus, every person is out for hm/herself, which leads to modern slavery (overworked and underpaid). Then, you have the crisis of the economy. On a higher scale, there has been dishonesty and selfish gain, greed for power over land and substance, which resulted in wars and terrorism. Our young family members being sent to Iraq. As a result, the focus has been nuclear power, which has and always lead to nuclear waste chemicals, the universe is deteriorating, contamination has been a major concern over the years. Also, what has become mankind's biggest pacifier, such as the gain of oil and money, have become the exploitation of man's folly and foolishness, thus, oil spills, the realization that the value of the dollar decreases as more of it is produced. So much for the American civilization and the U.S. government.

FREEMASONRY

These men are prohibited by their own Masonic law to solicit invitations to other men to join. Yet, they require for each man who does become a new member to retain faith in the "supreme being." The question is, is the "supreme being" that partial? The idea of the Mason up in higher ranks, is to make good men better men, as opposed to Christianity, which sees to save the man who is not good, and who's lost. A man interested in applying for Masonic membership should inquire into the financial obligations membership in his particular area would entail. The initiation fees and annual dues can and do vary from state to state, and within states. He should examine his own life style and determine if it will suit him to be a Mason. However, the bible teaches that a person can come to Jesus as they are for redemption and a new life in him, which is very much different from Masonic membership. The Masons are a fraternity that will accept all religious teachings into fellowship. With Christianity, God can't lie, and what he has spoken remains the same-different from the Mason fraternity.
