Southern Baptist Convention on Freemasonry:

19. What is the SBC’s stance on “Freemasonry?”

The SBC passed a resolution in 1992 opposing membership and participation in organizations that contradict the Bible (http://www.sbc.net/resolutions/amResolution.asp?ID=328), but these resolutions are not binding upon local churches.

In its 1993 report, the SBC stated that there were aspects of Freemasonry that are incompatible with Christianity. The main conclusion of the report states:

We conclude that many tenets and teachings of Freemasonry are not compatible with Christianity or Southern Baptist doctrine.

I can’t imagine what the Southern Baptist church, which I was rasied in, would have against an organization that promotes religious beliefs.
