There is much information about masonry, masonic lodges, and other similar organizations in this day and age. But have you listened to some ex-insiders? The ones that aren’t brainwashed by the religion it is? I would encourage you to do so. The below video is a long testimony, but by far the best I have heard. For some context, here is another link speaking about his story.
The most interesting part of this presentation of the general information about freemasonry I did not expect included information about the “Ashlar stone” – the hewn part exemplified the masons and the unhewn exemplified the common people. This brought to mind the following verses.
Other parts of this presentation/ testimony that stuck out to me:
masonry is being used as a screening system for involving individuals into Satanism
non-Satanists are considered anti-Christ and enemies, also vulgar and unnecessary (their Christ is the man of lawlessness)
they are run by the “law of nature” where purity of religion is to have no morals, ethics, or inhibitions (the beast system…where men choose to become beasts despite their higher thought process and conscience)
remember that the people you often elevate aren’t actually known to you (often referred to as “parasocial”)
evolution was created by a mason (who joined a club in which you must believe in a “higher power” to join) was created by a mason (in an order where you must believe in a “higher power” to join)
Yeshua had no secrets (masonry and secret societies) – they hate Him because he and His people (Shem, Joshua, etc.) made them go underground – they seek the man of sin who will allow them to freely sin (like Nimrod; see the book The Two Babylons)
they no longer feel shame for that which they should feel shame!
William Schnoebelen has a great book outlining understanding of masonry, having been involved for years and gotten to a very high level himself (32nd degree Mason, Rosicrucian, and Knight Templar). He provides resources to:
There is more about freemasonry on the Creation Liberty Evangelism website.
Probably Alexandra is also a great source for research tying origins of religion and philosophy together with our current reality (including the intersection with masonry). She, too, recognizes the need to follow Torah and honor our creator, YHWH.
More can be said about secret societies and masonry in particular; however, this information is sufficient to get the understanding needed about the wiles of the devil when it comes to joining or supporting these groups. When it comes down to it, masonry is attractive in gaining power, wealth, and influence quickly in our world.
