“Yes, LUCIFER IS GOD, and unfortunately Adonay is also god…
Thus, the doctrine of Satanism is a heresy; and the true and pure philosophical religion is the BELIEF IN LUCIFER, THE EQUAL OF ADONAY but Lucifer, God of Light and God of GOOD, is struggling for humanity against Adonay, the GOD OF DARKNESS AND EVIL.” (de Larive, A.C., La Femme et l’enfant dans la Franc, Maconnerei Universelle, Paris, 1889, p. 588)
Do you have Masons in your church? Lower ranking Masons may not yet be aware of what they are in but the Master Mason is there to sit on the Board and make trouble. My Grandfather, was both a 33rd Degree Mason in the Scottish Rite and a Lifetime Deacon at First Baptist Church. After he died and my Grandmother was moved to a nursing home, I was told that My Uncle had thrown all his books out at the curb. I found his Masonic texts, including Morals and Dogma and the three volumes of the H.L. Mackey’s Revised Encyclopedia of Freemasonry. They were worn and heavily underlined. I knew nothing at the time and the books had an insert that asked that they be returned to the Masonic Lodge and I did so. Now, I have access to the books online and I have Morals and Dogma in PDF format, but I wish I had the originals. The following are excerpts from Albert Pike’s Morals and Dogma and Mackey’s Revised Encyclopedia of Freemasonry. The holiest books in Free Masonry.
Masonry, like all the religions, all Mysteries, Hermetiscism, and Alchemy, conceals its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses false explanations and misinterpretations of it’s symbols to mislead those who deserve to be mislead; to conceal the Truth, which it calls Light, from them, and to draw them away from it. Truth is not for those who are unworthy or unable to receive it, or would pervert it. So God Himself incapacitates many men, by color-blindness, to distinguish colors, and leads the masses away from the highest Truth, giving them the power to attain only so much of it as it is profitable to them to know. Every age has had a religion suited to its capacity.
The Teachers, even of Christianity, are, in general, the most ignorant of the true meaning of that which they teach. There is no book of which so little is known as the Bible. To most who read it, it is as incomprehensible as the Sohar*.
So Masonry jealously conceals its secrets, and intentionally leads conceited interpreters astray. (Morals and Dogma Pages 104-105)
* Sohar is “the completest embodiments of Occultism.” page 321
All truly dogmatic religions have issued from the Kabalah and return to it: everything scientific and grand in the religious dreams of all the Illuminati… is borrowed from the Kabalah; all the Masonic associations owe to it their Secrets and their Symbols. (Morals and Dogma, pg 744, Albert Pike)
Masonry, around whose alters the Christian, the Hebrew, the Moslem, the Brahmin, the followers of Confucious and Zoroaster, can assemble as brethren and unite in prayer to the one God who is above all the Baalim, (Morals and Dogma, pg 226)
The first Masonic Legislator whose memory is preserved to us by history, was Buddah (pg 277)
Every Masonic Lodge is a Temple of religion; and its teachings are instructions in religion (pg 213)
We have therefore, in the 24th degree (Masonic Ritual), recited the principal incidents in the legend of Osiris and Isis … Everything good in Nature comes from Osiris… Osiris was the image of generative power. This was expressed by his symbolic statues … Osiris and Isis were the Sun and Moon … and is the All-Seeing Eye in our Lodges … Osiris was invoked as the God that resides in the Sun (pgs. 474-477)
“The Supreme being of the Egyptians was Amun, a secret and concealed God, the Unknown Father of the Gnostics, the Source of Divine Life, and of all force, the Plenitude of all, comprehending all things in Himself, the original Light. He creates nothing, but everything eminates from Him: and all other Gods are but his manifestations. From Him, by the utterance of a Word, eminated Neith, the Divine Mother of all things, the Primitive THOUGHT, the FORCE, that puts everything in movement, the SPIRIT everywhere extended, the Diety of Light and Mother of the Sun. …..Of the Supreme beings, Osiris was the image, Source of all Good in the Moral and Physical World, and a constant foe of Typhone, the Genius of Evil, the Satan of Gnosticism, brute matter, deemed to be always at fued with the spirit that flowed from the Diety; and over whom Har-Oeri, the Redeemer, Son of Isis and Osiris, is finally to prevail.” (pg 281)
It (Freemasonry) reverences all the great reformers. It sees Moses, the Lawgiver of the Jews, in Confucius and Zorastor, in Jesus of Nazareth, and in the Arabian Iconoclast, Great teachers of Morality, and Eminent reformers, if no more… (pg 525)
On page 102, Albert Pike defines Satan as “the negation of God … For the initiates, this is not a Person, but a Force, created for good, but which may serve for evil … They represent this Force … the Light-bearer or Phosphor, of which the poets have made the false Lucifer of the legend.”
Albert Pike says that the Bible lied when it identified Lucifer as Satan, and that Satan is NOT a person, but a Force, by which the Bibles testimony of Lucifer as Satan was a false legend! Thus he lays the foundation for the exaltation of Lucifer, as god!
“LUCIFER, the Light-Bearer! Strange and mysterious name given to the Spirit of Darkness! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the light … doubt it not!” (Morals and Dogma pg 321)
“The MASONIC RELIGION should be, by all of us of the high degree, maintained in the purity of the LUCIFERIAN doctrine If Lucifer were not God, would Adonay (sic) whose deeds prove his cruelty, perfidy and hatred of man, barbarism and repulsion for science, would Adonay and his priests calumniate him?
“Yes, LUCIFER IS GOD, and unfortunately Adonay is also god…
Thus, the doctrine of Satanism is a heresy; and the true and pure philosophical religion is the BELIEF IN LUCIFER, THE EQUAL OF ADONAY but Lucifer, God of Light and God of GOOD, is struggling for humanity against Adonay, the GOD OF DARKNESS AND EVIL.” (de Larive, A.C., La Femme et l’enfant dans la Franc, Maconnerei Universelle, Paris, 1889, p. 588)
On the contrary, we contend, without any sort of hesitation, that Freemasonry is, in every sense of the word except one, and that its least philosophical, an eminently religious institution–that it is indebted solely to the religious element it contains for its origin as well as its continued existence.. . . The tendency of all Freemasonry is toward religion. If it makes any progress, its progress is toward that holy end. Look at its ancient landmarks, its sublime ceremonies, its profound symbols and allegories–all inculcating religious doctrine, commanding religious observance, and teaching religious truth, and who can deny that it is eminently a religious Institution. . . . We open and close our Lodges with prayer; we invoke the presence of the Most High upon all our labors; we demand of our neophytes a profession of trusting belief in the existence and the superintending care of God; and we teach them to bow with humility and reverence at His awful name., while His holy Law is widely opened upon our altars” (Mackey: 847). (See Religion of Freemasonry) ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FREEMASONRY AND ITS KINDRED SCIENCES by ALBERT C. MACKEY M. D.
“From all this we can see that the altar in Freemasonry is not merely a convenient article of furniture, intended like a table, to hold a Bible. It is a sacred utensil of religion, intended, like the altars of the ancient temples, for religious uses, and thus identifying Freemasonry, by its necessary existence in our lodges, as a religious institution. Its presence should also lead the contemplative Freemason to view the ceremonies in which it is employed with solemn reverence, as being part of a really religious worship” (Mackey: 56). See Altar ENCYCLOPEDIA OF FREEMASONRY AND ITS KINDRED SCIENCES by ALBERT C. MACKEY M. D.
“Be assured, that God is equally present with the pious Hindoo in the temple, the Jew in the synagogue, the Mohammedan in the mosque, and the Christian in the church” (Mackey: 409-410)
