Of course you do.
"...who, being themselves but fallible and uninspired men, have assumed dominion over the faith of others, setting up their own opinions and modes of thinking as the only true and infallible, and as such endeavoring to impose them on others, hath established and maintained false religions over the greatest part of the world, and through all time;"
--Thomas Jefferson, 1786
OK, I think I see your concern?
And you’ve voiced it in the past.
Let me tell you a thousand times over. I’m not EVER interested in “dominion over an earthly government” as we know such governments today. That is attempting to baptize unbelievers, while unbelieving, into Christ. It is impossible. I agree with you heart to heart that this is odious! It blocks the light of the Lord.
Now when Christ actually comes, He will establish a new government that will elbow old governments out of the way, but that is a different story.
I hope I am clear on what the dominion authority of Christ means as I accept it and preach it.
Oh, and I am also not starting any new denomination. I’m here among other things to preach to Christians in ANY denomination about how to worship the Lord better. It’s up to them to choose to accept or deny... I’m not cramming anything down anybody’s throat... it looks more and more like you’re whaling away at a straw man foe that does not even exist when you’re whaling away at me.
We actually agree on more than you think.
You also don’t need the Masonic faith to fight the idea of one denomination getting dominion over another! But the Masonic system is theological clutter at best, and glorifying of men and demons at worst.
