Your post is largely fiction, though it is possible you have applied to a Lodge and been voted out. I suspect you were not positively recommended by the Investigating Committee. Had I heard you say such things as you do, I know I would not have recommended you.

Your post is also an invitation to polemic. I will not engage. I simply deny that the allegations you cite have any merit whatsoever and leave you to expound them to others.

My testimony is not fiction, but an organization which places anything prior to Christ and explicitly disallows one to state their faith in Christ is not a body of brethren to encourage good works through faith in Christ.

There is a litany of other evidence over 50 yrs which also doesn’t shine favorable on Freemasonry, but that is not for me to judge, but simply provide testimony to those with that authority.

I encourage Masons to further study Scripture, but only by faith alone in Christ alone, lest their hearts be hardened.

BTW, during this Church Age our function is to perform good works through faith in Christ to glorify Him. If we glorify any other before we glorify Him, we fail to walk by faith in Him. While one might deny allegations have any merit, one also allows those who perpetuate unrighteousness to continue and further denies glory to the Son.

I do not seek the merit from any other, but attribute my faith to Him and place all glory to Him. Likewise I encourage those who seek righteousness to further remain in faith alone in Christ alone prior to any other, to perform the works He has prepared at the right time and at the right place.
