Freemasons are members of The Free And Ancient Order of Masons, a continuation of the stonemasons’ guilds of the Middle Ages. They were the builders and stonecutters for the great castles and cathedrals of Europe, moving from site to site as their skills were required. Mostly self-employed and unmarried, they were described as ‘free’ masons. Much of their construction work was done in makeshift workshops called ‘lodges.’ Each craftsman was associated with an assembly of ‘Master’ masons, who determined rights of employment and the level of skills training required for their apprentices.
It is understandable that these largely illiterate and itinerant tradesmen came to consider their ‘lodge’ to be the most important thing in their lives - a source of continuity and security when everything else in their existence was subject to uncertainty and change. As they moved around feudal Europe, they developed secret passwords and special handshakes to identify themselves to one another, and became increasingly protective of the interests of their particular ‘lodge’ against challenges from all outsiders.
Idolatry and Syncretism - (the fusion or blending of religions) :
Modern masonry has its spiritual origins in the 18th century, when a concerted effort was made to remove all references to Jesus Christ and Almighty God, and heavily occultist rituals and a syncretic God figure were introduced in their place. The vast majority of the membership belong to the Blue Lodge (or lower 3 degrees), and knowledge of who they are actually worshipping is with-held from them. 'The Entered Apprentice' or 1st degree, "The Fellow Craft' or 2nd degree, and 'The Master Mason' or 3rd degree, are given vague and inoffensive titles such as 'The Grand Architect of the Universe.' It is only as they advance to higher degrees that the name of their deity is revealed to them and his identity more firmly established.
The process begins with an amalgamation of the Jewish Jehovah (JAH), the Babylonian Baal (BUL), and the Egyptian Osiros (ON), to form 'Jah-Bul-On.' Later degrees go on to acknowledge the ancient Egyptian gods (Osiros, Isis, Horus), the old Celtic and Norse gods (Odin, Frea, Thor), and the Hindu gods (Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva). But only those of the highest degrees are made aware that the one they really worship is Lucifer (Is 14:12), who is Satan (Rev 12:9).
When ministering to those afflicted by the curse of Freemasonry, a general consensus appears to have emerged regarding those specific spiritual entities that need to be rebuked.
The more obvious are :
- Renouncing of all false oaths and the spirit of cursing
- The spirit of Freemasonry and the curse of Luciferian doctrine
- The power of Witchcraft and spirits of the Occult and Death
- A spirit or spirits of Antichrist and Deception Spirits of Idolatry, Blasphemy, and False Worship
- Spirits of Secrecy, Superstition, and Bondage to Tradition
- Pride (the love of position and power) and Greed (the love of money)
- Spirits of cynicism, emotional hardness, skepticism, and unbelief
- Spirits of mental confusion, doubt, and spiritual apathy
- Fear of men, suspicion, fear of trusting, lack of faith, little faith
The oath sworn by the Entered Apprentice or first degree:
"…binding myself under no less penalty than that of having my throat cut across, my tongue torn out by its roots, and my body buried in the rough sands of the sea, at low water mark." The Master Mason swears,"…under no less penalty than that of having my body severed in two, my bowels taken from thence and burned to ashes, the ashes scatter before the four winds of heaven…" (Duncan's Ritual of Freemasonry, 3rd Ed., pp. 35 396, David McKay Pub., New York, NY)
This is the Apron Lecture, given every Mason in the Blue Lodge Ceremony. The following quote can be found almost word for word in most Masonic Monitors, the Craft ritual manual.
Each candidate, upon completion of the initiation is given a white Lambskin Apron whose pure and spotless surface, he is told, would be "an ever present reminder of purity of life and rectitude of conduct, and when at last, after a life of faithful service your weary feet shall have come to the end of life's toilsome journey and from your nerveless grasp shall have dropped forever the working tools of life, may the record of your life be as pure and spotless as this fair emblem which I place in your hands tonight, and when your trembling soul shall stand, naked and alone, before the Great White Throne, there to receive judgment for the deeds done while here in the body, may it be your portion to hear from Him who sitteth as the Judge Supreme, the welcome words: Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee rule over many things! Enter into the joy of thy Lord."
In the seventeenth degree of the Scottish Rite, or The Knights of the East and West Degree, after the candidates have completed the initiation they are given the secret password, Jubulum, and the Sacred Word, Abaddon. Here is the clue to the true identity of the Masonic Deity. It is revealed in the "Sacred Word" of this ritual, "Abaddon."
The supposed quest of the Blue Lodge Masons is the search for "The Lost Word." Most Masonic ritual is concerned with the recovery of this lost word, presumed to be the name of God-supposedly lost through the murder of the architect, Hiram Abiff, during the building of Solomon's Temple. This quest is attained during the ritual of the ROYAL ARCH DEGREE.
It is here that the SECRET NAME of the DEITY OF MASONRY is revealed. That name is "JAH-BUL-ON."
"JAH" is the short form of the Hebrew name of God, "Yahweh," or "Jehovah." "BUL" is a rendering of the name, BAAL. "ON" is the term used in the Babylonian mysteries to call upon the deity, "OSIRIS"! The secret ritual book of the Craft prints the letters J.B.O. It states that:
"We three do meet and agree-in peace, love and unity-the Sacred Word to keepó and never to divulge the same-until we three, or three such as we 'do meet and agree."
No Royal Arch Mason can pronounce the sacred name by himself. What is represented as the god of Masonry is a three-headed monster so blasphemous as to damn the soul of anyone who would dare to pronounce its name in a ritual of worship. Of course we as Apostolic Christians know that all Trinities are pagan and have infiltrated through the unholy trinity of the Catholic Church which come from Babylon.
It is taught in the Royal Arch degree that Masonry draws its teachings and powers from three great teachers and gods. The combined deity is represented as a three headed snake, whose name is Joa:Bul:On, which stands for Jehovah, Baal and Osiris. We as Apostolic Jesus Name Christians know that the true name of God is not Jehovah, but it is Jesus.
In the Shrine, the initiate swears a terrible binding oath in the name of "Allah, the God of our Fathers!" Mohammed was a false prophet (ANTICHRIST) and Allah is an evil god, a demon god destroying nation after nation of his followers. The red Fez itself was originally a badge of honor worn only by Muslims who had actually killed a Christian and dipped his cap in the martyr's blood. The promise of godhood through the Lodge, the usurping of Christ's Melchizedek Priesthood, the Holy communion of the dead, drinking wine from the carved out top of a human skull......and on and on.
