| 26 - THE PENAL FEATURES OF FREEMASONRY When Freemasonry is traced back to its source, we discover three ideas which are common to most oriental cults 1. - The initiation process 2 .- The Lodge secrets, and 3. - The penal features dealing with punishment of recalcitrant Lodge members. From the very beginning of our search for truth, we will discover that the character of Freemasonry and Christianity are diametrically opposed. Page 185 Where Christianity wins followers by propagating the truth, taught by its founder, Jesus Christ, Masonry aims to preserve and propagate its faith by keeping secret. It does not rely on the power of its doctrines to do this, since it does not present its claims openly and honestly, nor does it meet its opponents in an open and fair discussion. Like Judaism, from which it sprang, it instead attacks its opponents secretly, through institutions it controls, such as the media. On the basis of its own confusion, it cannot stand the light of truth and exposure. The Christian, on the other hand, is told to "Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man, (Col. 4:6). To protect its secrecy, Masonry found it necessary to install a catalog of oaths and terrible covenants, which were setup for the purpose of destroying those who sought to expose their nefarious activities and terrify its own members into a strict and total obedience to the Masters of the Lodge. According to their own admissions, which can be found in the Masonic oaths, they employ any means of discrediting or destroying their opponents. They may with impunity, through false testimony, discredit or completely destroy an opponent's reputation, may discomfort, or even completely annihilate them. This extends to the point of committing murder, if that is deemed necessary for the protection of the Lodge, as was the casein the murder of William Morgan in the s. He was assassinated on order of the Lodge authorities, when he sought to expose them. Masons infer that they are rendering service to the GREAT ARCHITECT OF THE UNIVERSE, when they destroy anyone who seeks to expose them. This is a murderous spirit, similar to that found among some of the extremists int Page 186 Masons are willing, according to their oaths, to inflict barbarous and horrible penalties on any brother Mason who strays from their way and exposes them. This reveals the true spirit which pervades Freemasonry and which most certainly does not exhibit the "fruits of the Spirit" which are the attributes of true Christians (See Gal. 5:22, 23). When it becomes necessary to enforce obedience to an idea, in order to promulgate it, you can automatically know that idea is wrong. If, as some members of Masonry aver, Masonry does not have this cruel, vindictive spirit, then why do they exhibit it in their oaths which cause them to become members That most Masons believe these oaths, is an established fact, for very few leave the Order, once they become members. This is not because they know their way is true, but because they fear the consequences. It takes an extremely brave man to leave Freemasonry, and then expose it That the threats implied in the Masonic oaths are made in good faith, can be ascertained from the past. French, Italian and Spanish Masons cited before their Masonic tribunals for breaking their oaths, were the Emperor Napoleon III the Emperor of Germany the Crown Prince of Germany a Pope and Marshall Prim. of France. These men paid no attention to the citations made against them by the Lodge and all were marked for assassination. (See Hecthorn, Vol. II, p. 108). The murder of William Morgan, in obedience to a Masonic decree, almost destroyed Masonry in America in 1826. Judge Whitney of the Belvedere Lodge in Illinois, escaped assassination at the hands of Master Masons, only because they feared public vengeance if they killed this popular man. The very initiation into the Third Degree, is a dramatic "acting out" of a symbolic murder. The candidate for all intents and purposes is murdered by these ruffians, who inflict on him the horrible penalties inherent in the first Page 187 three degrees. When these are apprehended, they are theoretically executed by having the penalties of the first three degrees inflicted on them. This is done to impress the Masonic candidate with the seriousness of his pledge and the vengeance which will follow if he breaks his oath. The Knights of Kadash deliberately promise to commit murder on any traitor to Freemasonry. Download 1.02 Mb. Share with your friends:
