What Church Members should know about MASONRY - Part 3 - Jack R Elliott - February 1959

Jack R Elliott

What is Masonry? Where did it come from? Is it a beautiful system of allegories based on the Bible? Are the morals of which Masons boast really good and righteous? What are the real secrets of Masonry? Read this and see! MANY of our brethren were shocked to find, in preceding parts of this series, that Masonic teachings and practices are not as wholesome and perfect as they had been led to believe. Masons had introduced their new members to new doctrine only after carefully preparing them to receive it by making it look good and upright. Each part was unveiled and explained with reverence and solemnity. The Bible, among Christian nations, was quoted often to show divine sanction. The Lodge seemed beyond question. It was truly a shocking awakening to some to find Lodge teachings and practices of pagan - not Christian - origin. Some are not yet convinced that all Masonry is pagan even though it has been proven that its oaths are anti-scriptural and that its secrecy is likewise contradictory to the Bible and pagan in origin. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
