This is the problem. Masons deny the divinity of Christ. There is only one way to heaven and that is through faith in Jesus Christ. They make no distinction between Chrst or Allah. Christ died for all—not Allah. They may have good works but good works will not get you to heaven. God said we should have no other gods before Him.

It’s also hogwash. Masons no more deny the divinity of Christ than the PTA or your bowling league does. Oh - the PTA and your bowling league don’t have positions on the divinity of Christ? Well, neither do the Masons. The Masons require a member to believe in God, but simply take no position on the truth or falsity of any member’s religious beliefs.
NOT TRUE! What gets people upset about Mason's is they have to believe in A GOD. That is not always Christ for some people. They, however would never attack you for believing Christ's divinity. It is a works organization and not a religion. You are free to believe as you wish as long as you are NOT atheistic. It is closer to the Lion's club or Elk's lodge than a religion. Most members are Christians and many are pastors and deacons in local churches. If you go to another country, you will most likely have another religion as the prominent one. They stress good works for their fellow man and not religion.
It always fascinated me how a so called "patriot" would love his country but think badly about Masons. The Founders of the country were almost all patriots and the oaths a politician takes even today to hold office are Masonic oaths. Is Geo. Washington a bad guy? How about Texas? is Sam Houston, Jim Bowie, Davey Crockett all evil men? Mason's built this country and set it's morals from the beginning. And yes, they were almost all Christians, and many were pastors.
Many Masons don't. Masons as an organization, however, accept all monotheists. (The Lodge I was invited to join was heavily Jewish, but most U.S. lodges are predominantly Christian.)
My father once said, "I don't know much about the Masons, but both Hitler and Stalin banned them, so they can't be all bad." (Hitler banned them because they accepted Jews, Stalin because they rejected atheists.)
