• He is said to be the Father of international Freemasonry.
• Albert Pike, 33°, boasted: He holds “The Keys of the Present, the Past, and the
Future.”
• He authored a mystical book widely acclaimed in modern Judaism. The Jews say
that a team of “angels” dictated this book to him.
• His teachings are found in the Jewish Talmud and are considered “Law” to modern-
day Jews. Among his most famous teachings: “The best of the Christians—Kill!”
• A pedophile, he taught it is acceptable for a high priest to have sex with three year-
old girls.
• He is honored today in the Masonic Lodge’s 30th degree ritual in which he lies in a
coffin and directs the initiation of candidates, requiring oaths of them to abandon
their faith and adopt the Mystery religion of kabbalistic Freemasonry.
Who is this man? Why do Masons say his famous Zohar and
Kabbalah are far superior to the Holy Bible?
“And so, whether we worship at the shrines and embrace the doctrines of Zoroaster
or Mohammed or Confucius or Moses or Buddha or those of the Christian world, we
know that there moves among us every day a timeless Force, greater and stronger
than ourselves…” —Henry C. Clausen, 33º, Sovereign Grand Commander, (Supreme
Mother Council, 1980), Emergence of the Mystical
The above statement is typical of Masonry’s leaders. It indicates Freemasonry’s
worship of a mysterious Force that exists in the world. This Force, says Masonry’s
leaders, is neither Christian nor of another world faith. Its’ names are derived strictly from
the Jewish Kabbalah and the ancient primitive religion prescribed in the rituals and
ceremonies of Freemasonry. The worship of this Force predates Christianity and, claim the
Masons, is able to make men divine gods. What is this Force? Is it of God or of Satan?
Can we access the dead to answer these questions? That is the subject matter of this book.
One Masonic authority, quoted in this book, refers to this Force as the “Seething
energies of Lucifer.” This, regrettably, represents the doctrine of Freemasonry. We will
closely examine this ungodly doctrine in these pages, but I wish to declare now, up front,
that Masonry is far off the mark in it’s strange philosophy.
I believe that, for Christians, it is only necessary to keep in mind these two important
Scriptures when gauging the truth and untruth found in Freemasonry.
1. Jesus our Lord stated: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me.” (John 14:6)
2. The Apostle Paul wrote: “That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things
in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should
confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2:10,11)
Freemasonry adamantly opposes both these scriptural truths. Both are at the very
foundation of true Christianity. Thus we know that the Masonic Lodge is decidedly not of
the Christian faith.
I wish to acknowledge and give gratitude for the many Christian researchers investigating
the field of Freemasonry. Without your outstanding efforts, my own research would be
severely impeded. Thank you so very much!
I would especially like to thank my dear friend, James L. Holly, M.D. Dr. Holly is not
only a premier medical doctor from Beaumont, Texas, he has pioneered the way for many
to examine the lies and deceptions of Freemasonry. In the 1990s, Dr. Holly was a leader in
the Southern Baptist Convention movement to expose Freemasonry and prove
conclusively that it is not compatible with Christianity. His efforts, I believe, were
stunningly successful and many Masons consequently renounced their membership in the
Masonic Lodge. These men were freed from the demonic grip of Masonry and their souls
cleansed. I am convinced that when he goes to heaven, Dr. Holly will meet many of these
men and truly understand how many lives he has saved.
Dr. Holly is also the Christian inspiration for this book. It was from reading his
excellent volumes, The Southern Baptist Convention and Freemasonry, that I came upon
the name “Simeon Bar Yochai.” As far as I can tell, Dr. Holly is one of the first Christian
researchers to connect Rabbi Bar Yochai with Masonic ritual. Having written several key
books recently on the kabbalistic religion, I immediately recognized the important role
played by one of Judaism’s most famous authorities, Simeon Bar Yochai (Rabbi Simeon
Bar Yochai) in Freemasonry. He is author of the Jewish Kabbalah and its component book,
The Zohar. This is a primary source—you can call these books the “Bible” of
Freemasonry.
Dr. Holly’s accurate exposure of one of Judaism’s most famous ancient rabbis, Rabbi
Simeon Bar Yochai, is extremely important. It highlights the direct links between the
kabbalistic religion of Judaism and Freemasonry. Most Christian investigations of the
Masonic Lodge omit mentions of this key link. The researchers do not wish to impugn
Judaism. Some are afraid of being unfairly branded an anti-Semite. They fail to report the
clear statements of Freemasonry’s founders who heap effusive praise on Judaism’s occult
Kabbalah and give credit to the Kabbalah for Freemasonry’s doctrines, practices, and
rituals.
Voices From the Dead examines Freemasonry as it really is. This book does not flinch
from telling the truth. Only by discovering the truth about Freemasonry, its Mystery
religion aspects, and its close links with rabbinical Judaism can men be set free from the
subtlety and deception inherent in this, the world’s largest secret society.
My hope in writing this book is that many Masons will understand the awful truth about
the Masonic religion and renounce it. I pray, too, that those considering becoming a
Mason will reconsider in light of the truths found in these pages.
A special note for fellow Christians. We must understand that some entrapped in the
Masonic Lodge are victims. Few are outright Lucifer Worshippers. Most are hoodwinked
by Freemasonry and brainwashed, degree by degree. Remember, we war against the
powers of darkness, the demonic forces, that bind these men to the Lie. We must be firm
in our opposition to these dark forces while being sensitive to those who are deceived. It is
entirely possible that some may be reached with God’s Truth.
In Christian Love,

Chapter 1
Freemasonry: The Riddle Solved
“It is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.” —Sir Winston Churchill
England’s late Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, is noted for many great speeches
he gave. But perhaps the most notable is the radio broadcast he delivered on October 1,
1939. Referring to the future action of communist Russia, Churchill said he could not
forecast such action, “It is,” he remarked, “a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an
enigma.”
Nevertheless, the wise Prime Minister offered a “key” to understanding, and in light of
world history in subsequent years, that key was proven correct.
The key to understanding Russia’s actions precedent to and including the World War II
years and beyond was, in fact, earlier revealed by Churchill in The London Chronicle of
February 13, 1920. There, the then British Secretary of War, Mr. Churchill, had charged
Jews with originating the gospel of antichrist and of engineering a worldwide conspiracy
for the overthrow of civilization.
That Churchill was correct in providing this important “key” was admitted by Rabbi
Stephen Wise, the most famous Jewish rabbi in America during this era. Asked about the
meaning of “communism,” Wise retorted, “Some Call it Communism. I call it Judaism.”
Thus was the riddle solved.
Freemasonry’s Secrets
Now we come to the riddle of Freemasonry, popularly called the “Masonic Lodge.”
According to the Masons, of which there are some 20 to 30 million gentlemen affiliated
across the globe, Freemasonry, too, is “a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.”
C. Lenning, a German who served as Grand Master of the Masonic Lodge, in his
Encyclopedia of Freemasonry for example, boasted, “Freemasonry has no secrets, but it is
a secret.”
“Our Secrets, however, have so far been safeguarded,” said the puffed up Mr. Lenning,
“no one has yet dared to overstep this line.”
What utter nonsense, what pure drivel is Mr. Lenning’s confident assertion. Yet, leader
after Masonic leader asserts the same. They brag, “We cannot tell you our secrets.” They
have even taken bloody oaths, contrary to the Word of God, pledging their lives—and
necks—that they will forever preserve Freemasonry’s dire secrets. Masons pride
themselves on their dogged determination to “conceal and never reveal” these secrets.
They lie, obfuscate, dodge, and, to use their own term, “hoodwink” the public and even
their own members.
Real “Christian” gentlemen, wouldn’t you say? Of course, Jesus Christ advised us never
to take any oath of any kind (Matthew 5:34). As for his own secrets Christ had none.
“Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world and in secret have I said nothing.”
—John 18:20
Therefore, in the spirit of Christ Jesus, I reveal to you exactly what Freemasonry is, i.e. its
“secret.”
Freemasonry is an “Ancient Mystery Religion,” whose members are initiated in the
worship of—get ready for it—Satan!
Thus is the riddle, the secret and secrets, of Freemasonry and its perverse “Masonic
Lodge” solved. But I am not the first to divulge their secret.
This riddle has actually long been solved. Lady Queensborough revealed it in her
classic textbook, Occult Theocracy (1933), when she wrote:
“Every Lodge is a Synagogue of Satan and its rituals Sorcery.”
It should be noted that Lady Queensborough provided us with a further sub-key to
understanding Freemasonry. She says it is a “Synagogue of Satan” thus informing us of its
malevolant Judaic aspect. More on this later.
Now, in this present volume, I echo Lady Queensborough, and I confirm also the
findings of such great modern-day Christian researchers as James L. Holly, M.D., A.
Ralph Epperson, John Ankerberg, Jack Fisher, Ed Decker, Harold Berry and Reginald C.
Haupt, Jr. All of these individuals, and many others besides, have discovered the “Satan
Connection” with Freemasonry and reported it in their many outstanding writings and
speeches.
Let me repeat then: Freemasonry is an Ancient Mystery religion. It is, moreover, a
worship of many deities, most of whom are mere fronts, or dark angels, assigned to the
chief god, the hidden entity we know as Satan, or Lucifer. And a Masonic Lodge is a
church, synagogue, or temple of that god. The worship or rituals carried on at the Lodge
is, in fact, sorcery, which we can also term as communion with devils.
This description of Freemasonry cannot be denied, and I find the attempted denial by
Masons and their deceitful propaganda very juvenile, even laughable.
Some apologists for Masons insist one must become a Mason in order to understand the
Masonic Lodge. But one does not need to become a Mason to understand the depraved
nature of this seedy and soiled organization, just as one need not become a rapist to
understand the criminal act of rape or engage in murder to comprehend this heinous crime.
So when you and I are accosted by contemptible persons making such a foolish assertion,
we can only laugh at their pitiful attempts to divert from the truth.
Judges, juries and prosecuting attorneys are established to determine the guilt of a rapist
or murderer. We thus allow reasonable people to hear the available evidence and decide.
Exactly in this manner can you and I and others determine whether Freemasonry is an
ancient Mystery religion in which members practice sorcery by worship of a god we know
as Satan. Of course, the Mason will claim their deity is not Satan, but is instead a
shadowy, ineffable god known by them as the Grand Architect of the Universe. They will
then dance and cavort about pretending that the Grand Architect isn’t his real name—that
must be kept secret, known only by Masons and adepts—they will then insist that a
number of dumb and lame substitutes will suffice for their deity’s “real name.”
Poor Satan, he is so pitiful the Mason has to go to incredible lengths to avoid naming
him. But to no avail, because anyone truly schooled in Mystery religions, or in other
Luciferian cults, can quickly identify the Masonic deity. Why, he is Satan, of course.
Please notice, dear friends that in this opening chapter of Voices From the Dead, I have
not attempted to keep from you, the reader, the answers to the supposed Freemasonry
riddle. You deserve to know the horrific and deceptive secrets of the Masonic Lodge, and I
have told you what they are. I explained that my conclusions are based on over thirty years
of my own investigation and research and on the superlative efforts of many other
Christian researchers.
But, like those in other cults and fake religions, masonry continues to fight and argue
against these proven allegations of satanic skullduggery on its part. Consequently, I have
decided to go out and survey the so-called “Lost Keys” of Freemasonry, as confided in
their own, authoritative reference books.
Masonry has officially been around since 1717, when the satanic group was first
formally organized in Great Britain. Of course, its roots, say the Masons themselves, can
be traced all the way back to the primitive era of Nimrod, Semiramis, and the woebegone
Tower of Babel in Babylon. I have gone back and consulted all the great authorities and
experts of Masonry. Here, in this book you will read what the top Masons themselves have
to say.
Δ Is Freemasonry an ancient Mystery religion?
Δ Are its rituals based on sorcery and magic?
Δ Do its doctrines come out of the ancient and modern Jewish Kabbalah?
Δ And most important, do high-level Freemasons worship none other than Satan as
Lord?
The many celebrated, lavishly decorated, and proud members and poobahs of the world’s
largest Secret Society will answer these questions. Their own speeches and declarations
will inform you. They are quoted in the book you now read. After reading this book,
Voices From the Dead, you can be sure about Freemasonry, its doctrines and practices.
You will have it from the Masonic authorities themselves.
Here, we will go direct to the experts—the highest level Masons, those who hold and
held leadership positions as Sovereign Grand Commanders and have earned the coveted
33rd degree. For example, we will consult the book, Morals and Dogma of the Ancient
and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, written by none other then Albert Pike, 33°.
The late Pike’s cherished body is interned at the House of the Temple, the Scottish Rite’s
international headquarters in Washington, D. C. What an honor! A statue erected in his
honor sits on U.S. government-owned land in Judiciary Square of that same city. His 861-
page book was for years given free to every man elevated to the third degree (Master
Mason). It is found in every Masonic Lodge and every Masonic Lodge library in America.
Carl Claudy, another highly esteemed author on Freemasonry (Introduction to
Freemasonry, Volume 1, 2, and 3), praised Albert Pike, writing about him: “Albert Pike is
one of the greatest geniuses Freemasonry has ever known. He was a mystic a symbologist,
a teacher of the hidden truths of Freemasonry.”
Now wouldn’t you like to read of Pike’s great teachings on the doctrines of
Freemasonry? We have them here in Voices From the Dead. His classic book was
published in 1891, but you need not buy it (actually, I recommend that you do buy it, to
confirm that Voices From the Dead reveals exactly what Pike taught on the “hidden truths
of Freemasonry.”)
Albert Pike is recognized perhaps as the greatest Masonic writer and thinker of all time.
But not far behind is Manly P. Hall, 33°, whose many books on the Masonic Lodge are
often quoted. Hall died in 1990, after publishing innumerable publications through his
Philosophical Research Society in California. Among his classics is The Secret Teachings
of All Ages (1977), a massive volume covering every aspect of the religion of
Freemasonry and its dogma. Hall also penned the book, Lectures on Ancient Philosophy,
(1984), as well as The Lost Keys of Freemasonry (1976) and What the Ancient Wisdom
Expects of Its Disciples (1982).
Albert Pike is the man who actually originated today’s 33-degree rituals of the Masonic
Lodge. I am unable to find even one Mason who refutes or criticizes Pike’s writings on the
morals and doctrines of Freemasonry. He is author not only of the classic textbook,
Morals and Dogma, but also authored a vast series of other books on Freemasonry.
In his book, The House of the Temple of the Supreme Council, C. Fred Kleinknecht, 33°,
then the Sovereign Grand Commander of Scottish Rite Freemasonry, says of Pike: “Albert
Pike remains today an inspiration for Masons everywhere. His great book, Morals and
Dogma, endures as the most complete exposition of Scottish Rite Philosophy. He will
always be remembered and revered as the ‘Master Builder of the Scottish Rite.’”
Chapter 2
What Masonic Authorities, Dead and Alive, Teach
“There is in Christ’s gospel a rapport with many religions: Christianity, Buddhism,
Islam, Judaism, Brahmanism (Hinduism) and others. They originally arose from
man’s early fear of nature’s forces. Gradual progress was made to higher and more
mature concepts… Hence, there is an ultimate unanimity of belief that the great cause
is the one God: that man is a partaker of divinity in that God dwells within him…” —
Henry C. Clausen, 33°, Sovereign Grand Commander, Supreme Mother Council,
Emergence of the Mystical
What do Masonic authorities teach? I encourage you, dear friend, to read closely the
above quote from a top Masonic leader. Do you see the gaping errors in Mr. Clausen’s
statement? You and I know that Christ’s gospel has no rapport with other religions. We
know, too, that Christianity did not arise from “man’s early fear of nature’s forces,” and
certainly the Christian faith is not progressing to “more mature concepts.” Most important,
not every man has God dwelling “within him.” Only born again Christian men and women
have the Holy Spirit within.
Clausen’s quote typifies what the Mason is taught inside the Lodge. Regrettably, it
strays far from the truths given us in the Holy Bible.
I am privileged to provide you names of just a few of the many high-level Masonic
authorities whose teaching and secrets you will find in this book. After reading their
works, you will be prepared to debate any Mason in the world on the topic of
Freemasonry. After all, Voices From the Dead quotes Masonic leaders, like Henry C.
Clausen, 33°, recognized as superior in knowledge to virtually any Mason alive today.
Let them attempt to lie and obfuscate; sit back and observe as these Masons shrink and
melt back into the landscape of their immoral and demonic religion. They cannot possibly
deny all these fundamental sources of knowledge on the Masonic morality and doctrine.
Here is the truth and nothing but the truth about the Masonic Lodge.

Now, what do the vast consensus of all these high Masonic authorities agree regarding
their chosen brotherhood of Freemasonry? Read their books and encyclopedias closely
and here is what you get:
Freemasonry is a composite ancient Mystery religion involving the worship of
Lucifer and inferior ‘deities’ through Jewish kabbalistic rituals and doctrine taught by
its Lodges and teachers.
Please notice, this description of the Masonic Order is essentially the same one that the
many Christian researchers ascribe to, and it is the same that I have discovered in the
many decades of research and investigation into New Age cults and religions (see Texe
Marrs Book of New Age Cults and Religions).
So the highest authorities of Freemasonry—the men who have earned the 33rd degree,
who have served as the Sovereign Grand Commanders of the Lodges and in other high
positions and those who are acknowledged by the Mother Supreme Council of the Scottish
Rite—all agree. Some, of course, deny the Masonic “Lucifer” connection. They might
also quibble, say, on whether “Satan” is a real being or a symbol, or whether his name is
“Lucifer” or Satan, but this is simply a sidebar. The fact is Masons of every degree, almost
by consensus, agree that their “Great Architect” is not Jesus and that Freemasonry is a
religion but is not Christianity.
I will admit that a few Masons might disagree with this description. After all one finds
objectors and ignorant men everywhere, in every field today. I invite Masons to continue
reading. If you truly want to know the facts about your own fraternity, you will find them
here, in this book. Please don’t be HOODWINKED.
Chapter 3
The 30° is the Knight Kadosh Degree. “Kadosh” is the Hebrew word for “Holy.” As we
shall learn later in this book, all the 33 degree rituals are based on the Jewish Kabbalah.
The Kabbalah is a system of black magic and sorcery from ancient Babylon underlying
most cult and occult groups in the world.
The Kabbalah, Wilmshurst informs us in The Meaning of Masonry, is “that marvelous
system of secret, oral tradition of the Hebrews, a strong element of which has been
introduced into our Masonic system.”
That “strong element” comes into clear focus in the 30° in which the candidate is told
by the “Grand Pontiff” that he must engage in the “Overthrow of all kinds of
superstitions.” Thus, any dependence or belief in the sectarian faith of Christianity will be
ended. He must accept that all religions are lower than Freemasonry, thus degrading
Christianity, and he takes an oath to “restore to the Grand Architect of the Universe” (that
is, to Lucifer!) his proper status as lord of all religions—all religions being the “maze of
impostures.”
Here is that oath given by the “Grand Pontiff” and taken for the 30th degree. It is one of
four oaths taken for the 30° in which the candidate agrees and swears he will always
defend Freemasonry and will work to “overthrow fanaticism, intolerance, imposture, and
superstition.” As Masonry makes known to the candidate in many of its degrees, this
refers to sectarian religion, of which Christianity is only one (Freemasonry is proclaimed
by the Masonic Lodge as a universalist Mystery religion that definitely is not
Christianity).
First, prefatory to the oath, comes this explanation:
“In all the preceding degrees you must have observed that the object of Scotch
Masonry is to overthrow all kinds of superstitions, and that by admitting in her
bosom on terms of the strictest equality, the members of all religions, of all creeds
and all countries, without any distinction whatever, she has, and indeed can have, but
one single object and that is to restore to the Grand Architect of the Universe, to the
common father of the human race those who are lost in the maze of impostures,
invented for the sole purpose of enslaving them. The Knights Kadosh recognize no
particular religion, and for that reason we demand of you nothing more than to
worship God. And whatever may be the religious forms imposed upon you by
superstition at a period of your life when you were incapable of discerning truth from
falsehood, we do not even require you to relinquish them. Time and study alone can
enlighten you. But remember that you will never be a true Mason unless you
repudiate forever all superstitions and prejudices.”
The candidate then takes the following oath:
“I, __________, solemnly and sincerely promise and swear wholly to devote myself
to the emancipation of humanity; to practice toleration in political and religious
matters especially, toward men. To strive unceasingly for the happiness of my fellow
human beings, for the propagation of light and or the overthrow of superstition,
fanaticism, imposture, and intolerance.”
The Grand Pontiff then instructs the candidate to toss some incense in the fire burning
on the altar of perfumes while he prays the following:
“Almighty, Father Holy and Merciful. Oh! Thou of whom we are the beloved
children, accept this incense which we offer thee with our hearts, as a token of love
and reverence. May thou kingdom come at last. And with it the end of all fanaticism,
intolerance, imposture and superstition Amen.”
After this, the candidate is instructed to write out a confession of his belief in Masonry.
After writing it, the confession is taken and will become a permanent record of the files of
the Lodge.
And finally, the Knights Kadosh degree requires that the candidate be counseled as
follows:
“And finally, keep aloof from uniting yourself with any sectional, political, or
sectarian religious organization whose principles can in any way bias your mind or
judgement, or in the slightest degree trammel with obligations the vows you have just
made.”
In other words, he is told not to unite with any “sectarian religious organization”
(Christianity included!) whose principles can bias his mind in the slightest degree from the
obligation he has just taken. Christianity is out because if he is to be a solid Christian, he
would willingly and proactively refuse to worship any other gods other than the God of
the Bible. The book of Philippians tells us that the name of Jesus is above every other
name. That certainly includes the ballyhooed “Great Architect of the Universe,” whose
real name of “God” is said to be Ein Sof. In reality the Masons and the Jews worship
Lucifer—under these pretentious names.
The candidate for the 30th Degree is required by oath to refuse uniting with the religion
of his childhood. He must cleave to Freemasonry’s “primitive Mystery religion” and stay
free of that “ignorant religion,” the Christianity of his youth. This was made clear in his
oath for the 28° ritual, known as the Knight of the Sun or Prince Adept Degree. In that
degree ceremony, he was told:
“Many outsiders have the good fortune to enter our sanctuaries; but few indeed are
fortunate enough to come to know the sublime truth (the secret they promise to reveal
to him). If you ask what are the qualities a Mason must have to arrive at the center of
true good it is necessary to have crushed the serpent of mundane ignorance; to have
shaken off the yoke of the prejudices of childhood concerning the religion dominant
in the country of his birth…”
The Masonic Lodge emphasizes in this degree, the 30th of 33, that Masons hate and
despise “the religious and political rulers of this world.” The Thrice Puissant Grand
Master charges the candidate:
“Your assistance at this juncture is invaluable as we have crime to punish and
innocence to protect. Persecution and oppression are raging. The religious and
political rulers of the world will not render that justice which they have sworn to
render, and we cannot endure their encroachments any longer.”
Is the Lodge here talking about the famous and ancient Knights Templar, or, are they
referring to the religions and rulers of today? We suspect the answer is both. For at this
point, the Grand Master of the Lodge brings the candidate to a table on which he finds
three human skulls. One skull wears a papal tiara, representing the unacceptable sectarian
religions, the second wears a wreath of laurel, and the third skull wears a regal crown. The
Grand Master stabs the first skull and the candidate angrily repeats, “Down with
imposture! Down with crime!”
Both the Candidate and the Grand Master, then, kneel down before the skull which has
the laurel wreath. This is the victorious Mason and is honored. Finally, the third skull is
stabbed and the words said aloud, “Down with tyranny, Down with crime.” Thus
“government” is slain by the candidate.
This book will shortly prove conclusively that Masonry is anti-Christian. It is not
compatible with the Christian Church. But, what of Simeon Bar Yochai, the ancient rabbi?
What part does he play in this blasphemous 30° ritual?
Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai is at this 30th Degree ceremony. In fact, he “resides” over the
entire ritual. He is the “Voice from the Dead.” He speaks from his coffin.

The Kadosh Knight Speaks From His Coffin
“Every Lodge is a Synagogue of Satan and its ritual is sorcery.” —Lady
Queensborough, Occult Theocracy
“One is filled with admiration on penetrating into the Sanctuary of the Kabbalah, at
seeing a doctrine, so simple, yet so absolute.” —Albert Pike, 33°, Morals and
Dogma (pp.744-745)
Possibly the one man who is most honored and revered in all of Freemasonry is Albert
Pike, 33° (1809-1891), who created the 33 degree rituals. Masonic authority Carl Claudy,
33°, author of Introduction to Freemasonry, a 3-volume textbook set, wrote of Pike on
page 105:
“Albert Pike, one of the greatest geniuses Freemasonry has ever known. He was a
mystic, a symbologist, a teacher of the hidden truth of Freemasonry.”
Pike is so admired that his dead body is interred in a tomb at the Scottish Rite’s
international headquarters in Washington, D.C. The Masons even erected a statue of Pike
on Judiciary Square in Washington, D. C. and there it still sits, even though Pike was a
Confederate general and a convicted war criminal.
Pike was a student of Helena Blavatsky’s Theosophy, a Judaic/Kabbalist religion, and a
great admirer, as was Blavatsky, of the Kabbalah. Not only did he use its principles in
designing the 33 ritual ceremonies, but its ideas, structure, and principles permeate Pike’s
Masonic textbook, Morals and Dogma.
In Morals and Dogma, Pike says that the Holy Bible is “incomplete and veiled,” but the
Kabbalah contains the “true secrets and traditional philosophy.” Take a look at some of the
beliefs of this Jewish Kabbalist, Albert Pike, as expressed in his book, Morals and
Dogma:
“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, Jacob
Boehme, Swedenborg, Saint-Martin, and others, is borrowed from the Kabalah; all
the Masonic associations owe to it their Secrets and their Symbols.
“The Kabalah alone consecrates the alliance of the Universal Reason and the Divine
Word; it establishes, by the counterpoises of two forces apparently Albert Pike,
designer of the 33 ritual ceremonies. opposite, the eternal balance of being; it alone
reconciles Reason with Faith, Power with Liberty, Science with Mystery; it has The
keys of the Present, the Past, and the Future.
“The Bible, with all the allegories it contains, expresses, in an incomplete and veiled
manner only, the religious science of the Hebrews. The doctrine of Moses and the
Prophets, identical at bottom with that of the ancient Egyptians, also had its outward
meaning and its veils. The Hebrew books were written only to recall to memory the
traditions; and they were written in Symbols unintelligible to the Profane. The
Pentateuch and the prophetic poems were merely elementary books of doctrine,
morals, or lithurgy; and the true secret and traditional philosophy was only written
afterward, under veils still less transparent. Thus was a second Bible born, unknown
to, or rather uncomprehended by, the Christians; a collection, they say, of monstrous
absurdities; a monument the adept says, wherein is everything that the genius of
philosophy and that of religion have ever formed or imagined of the sublime; a
treasure surrounded by thorns; a diamond concealed in a rough dark stone.
“One is filled with admiration, on penetrating into the Sanctuary of the Kabalah, at
seeing a doctrine so logical so simple, and at the same time so absolute. The
necessary union of ideas and signs, the consecration of the most fundamental realities
by the primitive characters; the Trinity of Words, Letters, and Numbers; a philosophy
simple as the alphabet, profound and infinite as the Word; theorems, more complete
and luminous than those of Pythagoras, a theology summed up by counting on one’s
fingers; and Infinite which can be held in the hollow of an infant’s hand; ten ciphers,
and twenty-two letters, a triangle, a square, and a circle,—these are all the elements
of the Kabalah. These are the elementary principles of the written Word, reflection of
that spoken Word that created the world!
“This is the doctrine of Kabalah, with which you will no doubt seek to make yourself
acquainted, as to the Creation.”
Being so enamoured of the Kabbalah that he holds it as superior to the Holy Bible, and so
impressed that he uses its principles and teachings as models for all 33 degrees of
Freemasonry, making Masonry a kabbalist Mystery religion, Pike greatly venerated and
honored the author of the Kabbalah. And, in fact, Masonry shows this is the case.
The author of the Kabbalah is none other than Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai. And Albert
Pike, in the pivotal 30° of Freemasonry, showcases Yochai as a Knight Kadosh—that is a
“Holy Warrior.” Yochai speaks from his coffin to the 30° Masonic candidates.
Charles David Hall, 33°, says that Freemasons hold that the 30th Degree is “one of the
most important.” It informs the Candidate of the “Lives of Great Men,” the most pre-
eminent being Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai.
Let’s review this key part of the 30° ritual ceremony, as reported by Dr. James L. Holly,
in his 1992 book, The Southern Baptist Convention and Freemasonry (The ritual
descriptions in Holly’s book are from the book, Scottish Rite Masonry Illustrated (Powner
Company, Chicago, Illinois) and the story of Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai is from The
Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, by Albert Mackey, 33°).
Once again, the words of the Knight in the coffin are heard, but this time with the
identity of the interrogator and with the understanding of what he intends:
“Thou who comest hither to disturb my rest fear my wrath. What is thy wish?”
(Scottish Rite Masonry Illustrated, Volume II, p. 259)
The initiate, on his own now, answers as he was instructed, “I wish to proceed.” So
the initiate, unknowingly perhaps, but nonetheless certainly, begins his fatal converse
with the enemy of his soul. After a moment the ceremony continues.
“The door is thrown open with a fearful crash. The Knight in the coffin resumes his
position. Thrice Puissant Grand Master enters the room hurriedly with a burning
torch in his left hand and a dirk raised in his right. The music stops. He walks up to
the candidate and says to him in a threatening voice:
‘Since your wish is to proceed; since your rashness prompts you to dare the wrath in
store for so many centuries follow me.’” (Ibid, p. 259)
The Thrice Puissant Grand Master then walking up majestically to the mausoleum
and kneeling before the skull wreathed with the laurel says, “Kneel down with me.”
He continues:
“Hitherto you have seen in masonry nothing but emblems and symbols. Now you
must see in it nothing but reality. Are you determined to repudiate all prejudices and
to obey, without reserve all that you will be commanded to do for the good of
humanity?” (Ibid, p. 259)
Innocent enough it may seem on the surface. But the reality of the symbols to be seen
is Luciferianism and the prejudices to be repudiated are Christian doctrine and the
unique revelation of God in Jesus Christ. The greatest problem in the church today,
beyond unbelief, is rebellion. Here it is seen that even Lucifer knows of the need for
obedience and submission.
In his article, “Ancient Mysteries” in his Encyclopedia of Freemasonry (Vol. 2), Albert
Mackey notes the “special worship” paid in the Mysteries to the pagan gods:
“Each of the pagan gods had besides the public and open a secret worship paid to him
to which none were admitted but those who had been selected by prepratory
ceremonies called Initiation. This secret worship was termed the Mysteries.”
It seems feasible, then, that Pike and higher level Masons pay a “special worship” to
Simeon Bar Yochai. He is, after all, the “Father of their Mystery Religion, Freemasonry,”
for it is based on his book, the Kabbalah, and especially on the Zohar, a component of the
Kabbalah. Recognizing him in the 30° is one form of this “secret worship.” It is sure that
few Masons being initiated know who Simeon Bar Yochai is. They are not told in the
ceremony that he authored the Kabbalah from which comes their religion of Freemasonry.
Albert Pike gives the Candidates a big clue to his identity when he states that he will
uncover “the Mystery of the Kabbalah.” But the Candidate knows him only as the Voice
from the Dead, who speaks from his coffin to them; he is the Knight Kadosh, the “Holy
Warrior.”
But Albert Pike, the acknowledged hero and author of the rituals, well knows of this
Simeon Bar Yochai. He is the ancient rabbi who is said to be the most devoted and fiercest
opponent of Christianity. He despised Christians and taught that every Christian should
be put to death!
Yochai’s conclusions about Christians are not only found in the Kabbalah, but are the
law of the Talmud:
“The best of the Christians—Kill!” (Yer. Kid. iv. 66cl Massek Soferiar xv 10; comp.
Mek., Beshallah, Wayehi, 1, and Tan., Wayera 20)
This Jewish law is repeated in the Jewish Encyclopedia, which reports that this was
only one indication of Yochai’s “animosity toward the Gentiles.” Yochai is also quoted in
the Encyclopedia as calling Gentiles “Serpents:”
“The best of Serpents should have its head crushed.”
As to women, the Encyclopedia says that Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai generally is hostile
to women, as is true of all orthodox Jews. Of women, Yochai is reported to have said that,
“the most pious of women is prone to sorcery.”
One wonders if this hostility toward women is the reason why Freemasonry has always
excluded women from its membership ranks. The same discrimination is applied toward
Africans (blacks), and this bigotry has encouraged blacks to establish their own form of
Masonry—the Prince Hall Masons.
How many lower-level Freemasons know that when they progress upward to reach the
exalted 30° they will meet this “Voice from the Dead—Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai?” Are
they not being hoodwinked, deceived, all the way to perdition?
Think of it—the average Mason, upon vying for the 30°, responds to the dead Rabbi’s
voice. He proclaims, “I wish to proceed.” And so he does, renouncing his Christian faith,
agreeing that Jesus become subordinate to Masonry, and that Christianity and all other
religions are mere “fanaticism and superstition.”
Would the 30° candidate take this deadly oath if he knew in advance that the Voice from
the Dead, this “Holy Warrior,” was that of the ancient rabbi who so hated Christians and
Gentiles he had said—and it is today Jewish law in their Talmud:
“The best of the Christians—kill!“
Would he say, “I wish to proceed,” knowing this horrible rabbi is the one who invented
the Zohar, with its many exhibitions of grotesque black magic, its foul sorcery, its
multiplicity of gods and goddesses and its literal worship of the Holy Serpent (Lucifer)!
What a cruel and massive deception is this terrible hoax being played out against the
unsuspecting Mason!
1. Albert Pike, the “Father” of modern Masonry, fully endorses the Jewish Kabbalah,
claiming it is the one source of truth, superior to the Holy Bible.
2. Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai is the author of the Jewish Kabbalah and its chief volume,
the Book of Zohar.
3. Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai is honored in Freemasonry as the Voice From the Dead,
speaking to the 30° candidate from his coffin.
4. This is the same Rabbi Bar Yochai who is quoted in the Talmud: “The best of the
Christians—kill!”
But, there is more! My research indicates that Yochai is one of the most honored rabbis
in Judaism today, and he is author of the notorious Talmud law that says that pedophilia,
that is, intercourse sex, is permissible with a 3-year old little girl. In fact, Bar Yochai says
in the Talmud that a Jewish Priest may take a 3-year old to be his bride!
Here is a recent, edited article about this atrocity, as reported by the Reverend Theodore
Pike of The National Prayer Network, entitled, “Judaism’s Pedophilia Begins with Rabbi
Ben Yochai” (Sept. 25, 2013).
Is the Man in the Coffin Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai, or is He Satan in Disguise?
James L. Holly, MD, the astute Christian author of The Southern Baptist Convention and
Freemasonry, asks this probing question:
“Who was Simeon Bar Yohai (or, “Yochai”)? He was the one and same as in Isaiah
14:16, He was Lucifer or one of his demons disguised in the form of a man. Who
does the man in the coffin in the thirtieth degree represent? He is Lucifer himself or
one of his demons.”
Simeon Bar Yochai, the Voice from the Dead in the 30th Degree, may well be Lucifer
himself. There are many legends—what the Apostle Paul called “Jewish fables”—in
Orthodox Judaism. The Kabbalah is full of improbable magic, sorcery, and legends. The
Bible notes that Satan, or Lucifer, often comes as an “Angel of Light” and his demonic
agents as “Ministers of Righteousness.”
Indeed, the Deity of Freemasonry, whom they title the Grand Architect of the Universe,
is clearly the god, or deity of the Kabbalah. He is identified in the various Masonic rituals
as Mahabone, Abaddon, and as Jahbulon. But in the Kabbalah, this Deity is known as Ein
Sof and it is Lucifer, as the Holy Serpent, who is claimed to be man’s “companion and
helper.” Who exactly is this mysterious Deity of the Kabbalah known as Ein Sof? Albert
Mackey, in his Encyclopedia of Freemasonry (p. 167) says that he’s known among
kabbalists:
“This is he who causes the earth to quake and kingdoms to shake.”
Thus, Dr. Holly notes that Ein Sof is found in the Holy Bible, where his name is
identified as none other than Lucifer. Isaiah 14:16 reveals of Lucifer:
“They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying is this
the man that makes the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms…”
We find, then, an astonishing and revealing correspondence between the Kabbalah,
whose strange God is Ein Sof, and the Holy Bible, which identifies Lucifer. Ein Sof is
Lucifer!
Is this the “Mystery of the Kabbalah” promised to be revealed to Masons in the 30°
ritual by Albert Pike, that their Deity is none other than Lucifer, “he who causes the earth
to quake and kingdoms to shake?”
The similarities between Simeon Bar Yochai in Freemasonry and Lucifer are striking. In
Mackey’s Revised Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, it reads:
“When the rabbi died, kabbalists believe that a dazzling light filled the coffin…”
We recall that Pike describes Lucifer as the “source of light” and as the “Light Bearer.”
The Apostle Paul tells us that, “Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light” (2
Corinthians 11:14).
In the 30th Degree drama, the Lodge is transformed into a place of the dead. Drapes are
black, human skulls are observed, candles are lit, and there, in a coffin, lies the mysterious
Knight Kadosh. In the Kabbalah, and in Mackey’s Encyclopedia we are told that when
Simeon Bar Yochai died, his remains were deposited deep down a cave where a rocky
tomb was prepared:
“and when the remains were deposited in the tomb, another voice was heard from
heaven, saying, ‘This is he who caused the earth to shake and the kingdoms to
shake.’”
That, of course, according to Isaiah 14:12, would be Lucifer, as Dr. Holly notes. Are
Bar Yochai and Lucifer the same personage? Certainly, there are many instances of
Satan’s spirit (or that of one of his demons) entering a possessed man. This may well have
been the case with Simeon Bar Yochai.
It seems that Dr. Holly’s writings regarding Bar Yochai and his role as the Knight in the
Coffin during the 30° ritual alarmed many Freemasons. Moreover, Holly’s astute
observation that Yochai is actually “Satan” in disguise delivered a further shock to
Freemasonry and its top officials. This secret had been hush hush for many decades, and
lower-level Masons had been kept in the dark. Now, many would discover the identity of
the “Voice From the Dead” that motivates the 30th Degree Candidate to ditch his native
religion of Christianity and, instead, embrace the kabbalist doctrines of the Masonic
Mystery religion.
Freemasonry immediately attempted damage control. One of the fraternity’s chief
apologists, John Robinson, 32°, came forth with commentary in his book, A Pilgrim’s Path
(M. Evans & Company, 1993), attempting to downplay Holly’s revealing statements.
Unfortunately, Mr. Robinson merely made things worse for Masonry. He wrote:
“In the chambers prepared for the drama of the 30th degree there is a knight in a
coffin… Dr. Holly asks, who does the knight in the coffin represent? Albert Pike says
that the answer lies in the mystery of the Kabbalah.”
Then, quite frankly admitting that the Knight in the coffin does, in fact, represent Rabbi
Simeon Bar Yochai, Robinson quickly interjects some nonsense about how wonderful a
man was the historic Rabbi Bar Yochai. Robinson claims that in the 30th Degree, “Simeon
Bar Yochai is presented as a man who has found favor with God.”
What a stretch! Is Robinson totally unaware that Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai is infamous
for his talmudic prescription, “The best of the Christians—kill!” Did this find the violent
rabbi “favor with God?” This is the rabbi praised by today’s Jewish authorities for his
extremist views and abiding animosity toward Jesus Christ and Christianity. Yochai is
known as a hater of both Gentiles and Christians.
Robinson must feel that he can easily hoodwink and deceive his Masonic brethren, few
of whom are aware of the hateful role played by Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai toward
Christianity.
Robinson next attempts to cast Yochai in a morbidly sympathetic Christian light. He
suggests that:
“There are some who feel that he (Simeon Bar Yochai) symbolizes all of the
Christians who died at the hands of their persecuters.”
Unbelievable! In fact, Rabbi Bar Yochai led violent attacks on Christians. According to
Jewish history, he also fought the Roman authorities and was forced to flee and hid deep
down a rocky cave for 12 years. It was during this period, it is claimed, that Yochai wrote
the infamous Kabbalah and its satanic Zohar. That Robinson would suggest today that this
hateful and bigoted rabbi who so hated and reviled Gentiles and Christians would, as a
Knight Kadosh in Freemasonry (“Holy Warrior”), symbolize all of the Christians who
died at the hands of their persecutors is preposterous.
Robinson’s false claims in his book proves the desperation of Masonry. They do not
want Masonry’s hoodwinked masses to know of their incredulous support for the rabbi
who both hated Christians and, at the same time, sanctioned pedophile sex with three-year
old girls.
Chapter 5
The Kabbalah of Judaism and Freemasonry
“The Kabbalah teaches that the Holy Serpent is the Messiah…and the Great Secret is
that the Serpent is, in fact, the ‘God’ of the Jews.”
Since Freemasonry claims to be a primitive Mystery religion based on the Kabbalah, let
us touch on the Kabbalah. First, the “God” or “Deity” of the Kabbalah is claimed to be
named Ein Sof (or Ain Sof). Actually, the Jews say he has no name. Albert Pike, in
Morals and Dogma explains:
“The Absolute Deity, with the Kabalists, has no name. The terms applied to Him are
אזד פּשזם, AOR PASOT, the Most Simple (or Pure) Light, called איך םזף, AYEN
SOPH, or INFINITE, before any Emanation. For then there was no space or vacant
place, but all was infinite Light.”
“Before the Deity created any Ideal, any limited and intelligible Nature, or any form
whatever, He was alone, and without form or similitude, and there could be no
cognition or comprehension of Him in any wise. He was without Idea or Figure, and
it is forbidden to form any Idea or Figure of Him, neither by the letter He ( )ה, nor by
the letter Yōd ( )י, though these are contained in the Holy name; nor by any other
letter or point in the world.”
The Deity is only identified as the vague and mysterious Grand Architect of the
Universe in Freemasonry. According to the Kabbalah the Deity has no name. He is not a
personal God, has no form, and cannot be communicated with (you can’t pray to Him!).
His is the “Light of the Infinite” and from him came “sparks of light.” These sparks
populate the earth and the universe and are separate gods, goddesses, and other deities and
magical intelligences. These sparks exist in separate universes and are called the
Sephiroth. There are generally ten different Sephiroth in the Tree of Life, some good and
some evil.
The Kabbalah claims there is a Mother Goddess (spark or Sephiroth) and a Daughter
Goddess, a Father God and a Son God. There is also a deity or spark called Yesod. Yesod
is a phallus deity and has sex with the Daughter Goddess whose name is Malkuth (see
next page for chart of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life). At the top of this Tree of Life is
Kether, the Crown Goddess. But unseen and beyond Kether is Ein Sof, unseen and unable
to communicate with men.
These Sephiroth (deities) are all controlled and operated with the help of their
companion, the Holy Serpent. He has sex with the female Sephiroth. The Holy Serpent
also is the Agent of Help for man. He assisted Adam and Eve in the Garden, positively
advising them to eat of the forbidden fruit and facilitating their pathway to divinity.
Likewise, he helps men, facilitating their Great Work as they strive to reach perfection and
become “gods.”
Eventually, all enlightened men (Jews and a few righteous pro-Zionism Gentiles) will
be elevated to godhood. The Holy Serpent will be the Messiah-facilitator, helping men to
become as gods. Men are to become their own messiahs.
It is easy to see why Pike and the Masons adore the Kabbalah. Its doctrines make men into
gods. They have no reason to obey the kabbalistic version of “God” for he is impersonal,
is mute, and cannot be reached. His sparks, the Sephiroth, however can be communicated
with, prayed to, and man is able to have mental sex with them. Indeed via sex, mental sex
with the Mother and Daughter Sephiroth and by proxy here on earth with human women,
the whole world is regenerated. Thus, kabbalism is essentially a sex cult.
The ages-old heresy is what Freemasonry is—the desire to be one’s own god and the
attempted rebellion against the God of the Bible. That is the awful sin of Freemasonry.
Thus, as one Masonic leader and former Sovereign Grand Commander emphasized,
“We must return to a faith in man himself.”
Another Masonic leader and writer, Wilmshurst, explained that Freemasons would
reveal to man “the ultimate divinity at the base of human nature.”
Albert Pike’s grandiose scheme is shared by many in Freemasonry. He sought a
Freemasonry rule of the world:
“The World will soon come to us for its Sovereigns and Pontiffs. We shall constitute
the equilibrium of the universe and be rulers over the Masters of the world.” —Albert
Pike, Morals and Dogma, p. 817
“…Freedom marches ever onward toward the conquest of the world.” —Albert Pike,
Legenda, p.160 as quoted in A Bridge to Light, p. 291
“Such, my Brother, is the TRUE WORD OF A MASTER MASON, such the true
ROYAL SECRET, which makes possible, and shall at length make real, the HOLY
EMPIRE of true Masonic Brotherhood.” —Albert Pike, A Bridge to Light, p. 325
Israel Shahak, who passed away in 2001, was a decided opponent of kabbalism which he
saw as poisonous and a great detriment to the Jewish people. Shahak, a professor at
Hebrew University in Israel, wrote several excellent books about the Kabbalah and its
practice.
He noted first that over the past 200 years, the Kabbalah has gained a dominant hold on
the religion of Judaism. Yet, Shahak wrote that kabbalism is not classic Judaism but is an
occult variant more like Hinduism, the religion of ancient Egypt, or the religions of
ancient Greece and Rome.
Second, Professor Shahak says the misconception among Christians and non-Jews that
Judaism today is a monotheistic worship of a religion is simply not true. He also
emphasizes that Judaism today does not honor either the Old Testament or the New
Testament. These components of the Holy Bible do not have in the Jewish religion the
“same central place and legal authority which the Bible has for Protestant or even Catholic
Christianity.”
Judaism, he says, is based on the teachings of mysticism which developed in the 12th
and 13th centuries and is today known as “kabbalism.”
Below is a brief description Dr. Shahak provides the readers on the structure and beliefs
of Judaic kabbalism:
“According to the cabbala, the universe is ruled not by one god but by several deities,
of various characters and influences, emanated by a dim, distant First Cause.
Omitting many details, one can summarize the system as follows. From the First
Cause, first a male god called ‘Wisdom’ or ‘Father’ and then a female goddess called
‘Knowledge’ or ‘Mother’ were emanated or born. From the marriage of these two, a
pair of younger gods were born: Son, also called by many other names such as ‘Small
Face’ or ‘The Holy Blessed One’: and Daughter, also called ‘Lady’ (or ‘Matronit’, a
word derived from Latin). ‘Shekhinah’, ‘Queen’, and so on.
“These two younger gods should be united, but their union is prevented by the
machinations of Satan, who in this system is a very important and independent
personage. The Creation was undertaken by the First Case in order to allow them to
unite, but because of the Fall they became more disunited than ever, and indeed Satan
has managed to come very close to the divine Daughter and even to rape her (either
seemingly or in fact—opinions differ on this). The creation of the Jewish people was
undertaken in order to mend the break caused by Adam and Eve, and under Mount
Sinai this was for a moment achieved: the male god son, incarnated in Moses was
united with the goddess Shekhinah. Unfortunately, the sin of the Golden Calf again
caused disunity in the godhead; but the repentance of the Jewish people has mended
matters to some extent.
“Similarly, each incident of biblical Jewish history is believed to be associated with
the union or disunion of the divine pair. Daughter falls closely into the power of
Satan, while Son takes various female satanic personages to his bed, instead of his
proper wife.
“The duty of pious Jews is to restore through their prayers and religious acts the
perfect divine unity, in the form of sexual union, between the male and female
deities.”
In studying the New Age movement, I continually came across a series of books related to
the Kabbalah. These books were prominently displayed on the shelves of New Age
bookstores. I bought most of the books on Kabbalah and quickly realized that they were
part and parcel of the New Age. I also discovered that the Kabbalah was extremely
important to Judaism.
Moreover, I learned that Judaism has little to do with the Old Testament. Rabbinical
Seminaries—called Yeshivas—pay little or no attention to the Old Testament. The
majority of their studies have to do with the Babylonian Talmud, the Jews’ books (actually
some 68 volumes) of 613 laws and commentaries.
In the Talmud are many teachings of the Kabbalah. And most rabbis combine both the
Talmud and the Kabbalah to round out their Jewish theological education.
This means, of course, that Judaism, infused with teachings of the Kabbalah and the
Talmud, is occultic and New Age to its very core.
Given this inescapable connection, I have now spent almost 30 years studying both the
Talmud and the Kabbalah, contrasting these foundational books of Judaism with the
doctrines and beliefs of New Age cults and religions. Here are the facts regarding my
research:
The Kabbalah is derived from the Mystery Religions of Babylon, Persia, Sumeria,
Egypt, Greece, Rome, and other pagan cultures. The rabbis simply borrowed from these
ancient writings. This is the reason for its similarity to other New Age cults and religions,
which are also based on Mystery Teachings.
Both the Talmud and the Kabbalah are racist documents. Both hold the conscious Jew
as the ultimate in evolution and as gods on earth. Gentiles are but cattle and the Jews, as
sparks of God, are destined to rule.
The Kabbalah greatly expands the Talmud’s concept of “God.” The Kabbalah teaches of
many minor gods and goddesses, including ten emanations of the unknowable,
unapproachable supreme “God.” Moreover, “God” has a wife, a Holy Presence known as
“Shekhinah.”
The Kabbalah is essentially a lewd guide for a mind-sick sex cult. One of the deities in
the Kabbalah’s Tree of Life is Yesod, the phallus! Yesod continually lusts after and has sex
frequently with Malkuth, a goddess. Plus, a higher feminine deity, the goddess Binah, has
sex with yet another god, Tiphereth. Satan, meanwhile enjoys sex with both Binah and
Malkuth, and with lesser personages of the multifaceted Jewish godhead. Meanwhile,
Jewish persons here on earth copulate believing they are fostering frequent sex in the
heavenlies by the gods and goddesses. Judaism is a weird, lustful religion complete with
human-god swingers and wild and frequent sex! Even incestuous relations are encouraged
among the gods and goddesses.
The Kabbalah teaches that God encloses the universe within himself, that the
Holy Serpent, named Leviathian, is the “Angel of help” that shall lift the Jew to
rulership on Planet Earth, and that Jews must do both evil and good works to
ascend to godhood. God, then, is Himself both good and evil, a combination of
both the darkness and light.
The Kabbalah teaches that the Holy Serpent is the Messiah of the Jews and the
Great Secret is that the Serpent, is, in fact, the “God” of the Jews. As such, he is
depicted as enclosing the entire universe inside himself as the Ouroboros, the
eternal Serpent biting its own tail.
Pike, Freemasonry, Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai, and the Holy Serpent
Now we return again to Albert Pike, founder of modern Masonry and its 33 ritual degrees,
and to Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai. We have seen that the Kabbalah teaches that the Holy
Serpent is the messiah of the Jews, their God. Albert Pike modeled Freemasonry’s 33
rituals and its doctrine based on the teachings of the Kabbalah. According to Pike, the
Kabbalah is superior to the Holy Bible. He says that he is “filled with admiration on
penetrating into the Sanctuary of the Kabbalah and at seeing a doctrine so simple, yet so
absolute.”
And who is the author of the Kabbalah? Who is the spiritual genius who gave us this
marvelous doctrine “so simple, yet so absolute?” Why, of course, that would be Rabbi
Simeon Bar Yochai, the knight in the coffin in the 30th Degree, who presents to us, in
Pike’s words, the “Mystery of the Kabbalah.”
A consensus of Freemasonry’s leaders and academics agree totally with Pike. Their
guide is the Kabbalah. And the Kabbalah claims that its “God,” Ein Sof, has created many
“divine sparks,” including at least ten gods and goddesses. They are located for our
convenience on the Jew’s Tree of Life. But amidst them all, superintending and directing
their divine activities, is none other than the Holy Serpent.
The Holy Serpent, Rabbi Yochai contends in his Zohar, which is part of the Kabbalah, is
the companion of the Jews. He is their Messiah and represents their God. He is, says the
Zohar, the equivalent of the Holy Spirit in Christianity.
Rex Hutchens, 33°, author of A Bridge to Light, the authoritative textbook published in
1988 by the Supreme Mother Council, the international head of Scottish Rite
Freemasonry, affirms this kabbalistic contention. On pages 251-252 of his book, he writes
that “the Universal Agent, the Serpent devouring his own tail” is, in fact, “the body of the
Holy Spirit.”
Christians are shocked and aghast to read Pike, Hutchens, and other top-level Masons
acknowledge the Serpent in this way. After all, Revelation 12:9 clearly refers to “the great
dragon… that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.”
Not so, say the rabbis and their spiritual allies in Freemasonry. Famous Rabbi Elijah Ben
Solomon, known in Judaism as the Vilna of Gaon, is quoted in Rabbi Yochai’s Zohar as
teaching that the Serpent is the Messiah and Redeemer of the Jews.
More recently (“Skull & Bones, Freemasonry, and the Serpent Wisdom,” online, 2015)
Sam LaPoint, 33° Mason, explains the Judaic viewpoint: “The idea that the serpent is
evil,” says LaPoint, “is a false narrative created by later interpretations of Christianity.”
Again, here are those pesky Christians with their “false narrative” which impugns the
wonderful Messiah, the Serpent!
According to the Kabbalah and its subordinate Mystery religion, Freemasonry, the
Serpent is a most important personage. The Kabbalah teaches that the Serpent “possesses
great illuminating power” (Rabbi ben Eliezer). The Zohar further teaches that the Serpent
is “the source for universal light.”
Doesn’t Albert Pike claim, in Morals and Dogma, that Lucifer is the “Light Bearer,” the
very “Father of Light?” And we who are Christians know that Lucifer, the “Angel of
Light,” is a synonym for Satan, who is the Serpent.
“In every degree in Freemasonry,” says Pike in his book Liturgy, “the candidate seeks to
attain Light.”
Thus, in every degree in Freemasonry, the candidate draws closer to the Serpent, to
Satan, for the Zohar tells us that, “The Holy Serpent is the fountain head, root, and
essence for all God’s sacred revelatory light.”
We recall, too, Pike’s declaration that Freemasonry is an “ancient Mystery religion.”
And all the Mystery religions, history reveals, worshipped the Serpent. Rex Hutchens,
33°, on page 100 of A Bridge to Light, states, “The priests of the Mysteries were
symbolized as a Serpent.”
If, indeed, the priests of the Mysteries were symbolized as a Serpent, is it not so that the
priests of today’s Freemasonry, a Mystery religion according to its founder, Albert Pike,
33°, are also secretly symbolized as Serpents?
Perhaps Pike was, in a sense, correct, when he wrote that the doctrine of the Kabbalah is
“so simple, yet so absolute.”
That doctrine is predicated 100 percent on the imagination of its inventor. And the
inventor is the Serpent, the one whom Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai lionizes and glorifies in
the Zohar of the Kabbalah.
The upshot: Satan rules Freemasonry under many disguises and ruses, even as the
“Light-Bearer.”
Chapter 6
About Those “Lost Secrets”
“The Religion of Masonry is not sectarian. It admits men of every creed… It is not
Christianity. Its religion is that general one of nature and primitive Revelation—
handed down to us from some ancient and patriarchal priesthood…” —Albert
Mackey, 33°, Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, p. 619
Here reiterated, is my summation of what is Freemasonry and of whom is worshipped:
“Freemasonry is an ancient Mystery religion involving the worship of Satan and
inferior ‘deities’ through kabbalistic rituals and doctrines taught by the lodges.”
Notice again the several elements of Freemasonry:
It is an ancient Mystery religion: “It is not Christianity.”
Members directly or indirectly worship Satan and inferior evil presences
through rituals and doctrines taught in the Lodge.
These rituals and doctrines originated long ago in the Kabbalah, which is Judaic
sorcery.
The Masonic Lodge is, in fact, a Synagogue of Satan. (See Revelation 2 and 3 of
the Holy Bible)
As a Mason, are you surprised by this summary? Possibly, it has never been taught or
expressed to you in this immediate and direct manner. The Masonic Lodge takes its
members piece-meal, step by step into Masonic reality. With each degree and its study, the
Mason advances, first toward initiation, then, later, into full demonic possession. By the
time the Mason has reached the higher degree levels, say the 27° through the 33°, the
individual elements of Freemasonry (ancient Mystery religion, worship of Satan and
inferior deities, and Jewish Kabbalism) are often subsumed within one’s overall cognitive
framework.
George Steinmetz, 33°, in Freemasonry“It’s Hidden Meaning (Chicago: Charles T.
Powner, 1976) stated, “The average Mason is lamentably ignorant of the real meaning of
Masonic symbology and knows as little of its esoteric teaching.”
Rollin C. Blackmer, another authoritative Mason, in The Lodge and the Craft
(Richmond, VA: Macoy, 1976) says that, “The great mass of our membership are densely
ignorant of everything connected with Masonry.”
Freemason, Reverend William H. Russell, in his book, Masonic Facts for Masons
(Chicago: Charles T. Powner, 1968), remarks that, “Nearly every Mason thinks he knows
all about Masonry… As a matter of fact, however, he does not.”
If you are a Mason who actually knows little about the Mystery religion you have
inadvertently joined, don’t feel bad. Most Masons are just like you. You have simply been
“hoodwinked,” fooled and deceived by Masonic superiors who consider you profane and
ignorant.
They see the average Mason as so dumb that he is unworthy of even being told the
name of the Masonic God!
They’ll first tell you that the name is merely the Great Architect. Then, later, they’ll
confide to you a substitute name, Mahabone. Finally, after moving up through the degrees,
you discover that the “lost” name is Jahbulon. Next, you will learn that you are your own
god and you’ll be taught to view yourself as an “Osiris” (who was, of course, the ancient
Sun God of Egypt), and you receive the self-knowledge that Lucifer is the Masonic Deity.
Yes, that’s right—Lucifer! But by that point, it may just be too late for you. You will have
gradually and irrevocably been taken in by the ultimate Masonic hoodwink, and be
spiritually immobilized forever!
Think, dear friend, do you really want to be spiritually yoked with these unbelievers in
the Lodge, who dare not confess the name of Jesus in their corrupt official meetings? Do
you really want to be yoked with cultic members of false religions—Islam, Hinduism,
Judaism, Buddhism, Jainism, etc.—from around the world, people who deny Jesus Christ
and worship other gods? Why is the real name of God kept from the Mason neophyte and
“substitutes” given instead?
II Corinthians 6:14-18 provides us the answer why we must stay away from the satanic
cult known as Freemasonry:
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath
righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath he that believeth with
an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the
temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them;
and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from
among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and
I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and
daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.”
If you are now a member of the Masonic Lodge, ask yourself, “Am I unequally yoked
with unbelievers?” How about the Moslem Mason who rejects Jesus Christ as Lord. You
have yoked yourself with him, and he is certainly an unbeliever. How about the Jew,
whose Talmud claims that Jesus is today “burning in hell in fiery excrement?” And what
of the Hindu Mason, who worships the cobra goddess, the rat god, or another of a million
so-called Hindu deities?
If you are a Christian, you worship Christ Jesus. He is God and He alone. Your faith is
therefore, according to Freemasonry, sectarian, and that is permitted in the lower degrees
but is prohibited in the higher degrees of the Masonic Lodge. Listen to what Albert
Mackey, author of the Encyclopedia of Freemasonry and former Past General High Priest
and Secretary General of the Supreme Council, 33rd Degree, stated about the religion of
Masonry as contrasted with the Christian faith:
“The religion of Masonry is not sectarian. It admits men of every creed within its
hospitable bosom… It is not Christianity… Its religion is that general one of nature
and primitive revelation—handed down to us from some ancient and patriarchal
priesthood—in which all men may agree and none may differ.” (p. 619, Encyclopedia
of Freemasonry)
This is official Masonic dogma. Other Masons may lie or may skirt around the issue,
but above you get it unsugarcoated, from the man who served as “General High Priest” for
Freemasons. Mackey is one of today’s most respected authorities of Freemasonry, and he
flatly says of the religion of Freemasonry:
“It is not Christianity.”
What, then, is the religion of Freemasonry? Mackey writes, in his Encyclopedia of
Freemasonry:
“If Masonry were simply a Christian institution, the Brahmin, the Moslem, and the
Buddhist could not consciously partake of its illumination, but its universality is its
boast…at its altars all religions may kneel, and to its creed every faith may
subscribe.”
If you desire a universalist religion, a religion based on the dogma of the Jewish
Kabbalah—which subscribes to numerous gods and goddesses and sorcery of every type
—and you do not mind bowing down your knee to a primitive creed to which those of any
and all religions may subscribe, then Freemasonry is for you! But, please, don’t claim you
are a worshipping Christian.
Remember always: A Christian worships only one God, Jesus Christ, the one who is not
worshipped at all in the Masonic Lodge. How dare you, therefore, pretend to be a
Christian! You, Masonic initiate, are an imposter!
But the Masons do have a Supreme God. We have already reviewed his many names,
including Mahabone, Abaddon, and of course, the Grand Architect. Oh yes, he has names
and he is above all the Baalim (devils). Albert Pike alludes to Masonry’s worship of the
“God who is above all the Baalim” when he writes:
“Masonry around whose altars the Christian, the Moslem, the Brahmin, the followers
of Confucius and Zoroaster, can assemble as brethren and unite in prayer to the one
God who is above all Baalim…” (Pike, Morals and Dogma, p. 226).
So, you see, this Masonic Deity does not mind your “silly hagglings” over these many
false, sectarian religions like Buddhism, Taoism, Islam, etc. He is above all the Baalim.
These other religions are mere halfway houses to the “Father of Light.” Eventually, if you
stick around long enough you’ll discard all the false trappings of inferior religions and
fatally embrace the one, true, primitive, universal religion—Freemasonry.
Chapter 7
Freemasonry is an Ancient Mystery Religion Based
on the Judaic Kabbalah
“The old primitive faith that is the Freemasonry religion is derived from the Ancient
pure Kabbalah.” —Albert Pike, 33°, Morals and Dogma
Freemasonry, say its advocates, is not simply a religion. Freemasonry is the religion. It
is the primitive religion, which was first taught man.
Albert Pike, in Morals and Dogma, writes, “Masonry teaches, and has preserved in their
purity, the cardinal tenets of the old primitive faith.”
What exactly is this “old primitive faith” that today is called “Freemasonry?” It is not
Christianity, for Pike and most all the Masonic experts insist that Freemasonry predates
Christianity and has its own creed.
“Masonry propagates no creed except its own most simple and Sublime One; that
universal religion, taught by nature and reason.” (Pike, Morals And Dogma)
So Christians—and Moslems, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.—must understand that
Freemasonry is not based on any modern-day creed such as Christianity or Islam, but is
instead the “old primitive faith” that is universal.
Pike goes on to say that the “old primitive faith” that is the Freemasonry religion is
derived from the “Ancient pure Kabbalah.” The Kabbalah, of course, is one of the prime
contributors to the religion we know as Judaism. Therefore, the roots of Freemasonry are
kabbalistic and include, adds Pike, the belief in the ineffable, non-communicative god.
This god is called Ein Sof in the Kabbalah and its ten subordinates are deities, called
emanations, or sparks, of light which proceed from this universal Deity known as Ein Sof
(Pike, Morals and Dogma, p. 727).
Rex Hutchens, in his book, A Bridge to Light, published in 1988 by the Supreme
Mother council, 33° in Washington, D.C., explains:
“Pike believed that certain ancient cultures possessed the Truth that God had
originally given to man…a more accurate and comprehensive knowledge of the Deity
and his relationship to the universe and man than modern philosophies and religions.”
As we can see, Christianity, a “modern religion” according to Masons, is inadequate.
Long before the advent of this Christian faith, “God had originally given to man…a more
accurate and comprehensive knowledge…”
How splendid that God had already given man “a more accurate and comprehensive
knowledge.” But then, why was Jesus” New Covenant necessary to complete the old
Covenant of the Jews if this were so? Since, as Pike told us, the “Ancient pure Kabbalah”
is the instrument that God had first devised to bring to man this “more accurate and
comprehensive knowledge,” one wonders whether Jesus at his advent was not aware of its
more perfect “teachings?”
Rex Hutchens, the Masonic author of A Bridge to Light, goes on to explain that man
therefore must know of the Kabbalah and its Sephiroth (inferior deities) to understand
truth:
“Albert Mackey (former Sovereign Grand Commander of Scottish Rite Freemasonry)
in his Masonic Encyclopedia noted that…some acquaintance with the Kabbalah,
therefore, seems to be necessary to the Freemason.” (A Bridge to Light, p. 250)
The Kabbalah is far better in its instruction than what Jesus or His apostles taught in the
New Testament because, Hutchens assures us, it teaches complete truth:
“The ancient and accepted rite fulfills the function of both King and Priest for its duty
is to teach truth in all its varied aspects—moral, political, philosophical and
religious.” (A Bridge to Light, p. 260)
So we now have Pike, Mackey, and Hutchens all agreed on the superiority of the
Kabbalah religion of Freemasonry to the religion of Jesus Christ. Virtually, every Masonic
authority agrees that the Kabbalah is at the foundation of everything Masonic. It is Truth.
The Masonic Lodge holds the Kabbalah in the highest esteem.
As Coil’s Masonic Encyclopedia remarks, the “basic doctrine and tradition of the
Masonic Lodge is Judaic.” (Coil’s Masonic Encyclopedia, p. 512)
So Freemasonry claims to be a religion, the first and foremost of all religions. It is
based on the occultic Jewish Kabbalah and cannot be separated from these theological
roots. Delmar Darrah, 33°, in his textbook, History and Evolution of Freemasonry
(Charles Powner, 1979) emphasizes, in fact, that, “the religious element…is its most
distinguishing characteristic,” and that if there “were no Kabbalah, there would be no
Freemasonry.” Darrah says further that, “Masonry discards as nonessential…the old
religious ideas.”
According to Darrah, Freemasonry religion “is simply the result of a long, tedious
process of evolution during which man has advanced from a mere brute to the highest
product of modern civilization.”
There you have it. Freemasonry, a Kabbalah Mystery religion, was produced by the
evolutionary process of succeeding emanations. Whereas, Christianity is a revelatory
religion. Christianity was revealed to man by God, but Masonry claims that man himself
discovered through evolution the superiority of the Masonic religion.
The founder of Christianity is, of course, Jesus Christ. But Freemasonry has the
Kabbalah and its disciples as its co-founders and these men favor no other religion. They
have their own; the Lodge and its “primitive faith.”
“These early founders of Masonry conceived a system of moral religion at whose
shrine all men might worship, the Christian, the Catholic, the Protestant, the
Confucian, the Buddhist, the Mohammedan, as well as all others who are willing to
acknowledge a supreme being and live a life of moral rectitude.” (Darrah, History
And Evolution of Freemasonry, p. 290-300)
If you are a Christian, or profess Christianity, you are a sectarian. The Masons will be glad
to have you also join their occult fraternity and take part in their religion, which is, they
insist, more complete, has more “truth,” and is the only “universal” religion. The same
goes for the Buddhist, the Moslem and members of all other world religions. Their
members are welcome to become Masons, but will be taught that their sectarian faith is
inferior to the Masonic faith which is based on the superior Judaic Kabbalah.
This bargain with the Devil, the willing embrace of a supposedly superior religion based
on the Kabbalah, seems to be acceptable to the millions of Masons now active in the
Masonic Lodge. The syncretic mixture of pagan religion (Freemasonry) and Christianity is
even celebrated by some Masons.
Going to a Lodge meeting can be like attending an interfaith worship service, they say.
At the Lodge, you can associate with people of all religions. You can practice your great
tolerance and respect for Islam, Hinduism, Zoroastrianism, and especially Judaism. This
hodgepodge of religious faiths must, however, all give allegiance to the superior, primitive
religion that binds them all as One.
They must not and cannot say that their sectarian faith is better than any other man’s
sectarian faith. That would be an “anti-Mason” attitude and demonstrate horrific non-
acceptance of the “universal truth” found only in the Mystery teachings of the Lodge.
We see, then, that Freemasonry is derived from the “ancient, pure, primitive” faith
found in the Judaic Kabbalah. But this faith has over time been improved upon as men
evolved spiritually. The ancient religions of Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome and others
were used to formulate Freemasonry, but the knowledge of Kabbalah is the capstone:
“With the unveiling of great spiritual truths by the Hebrew writers, and the reflection
of Divine light upon the mysteries of many ancient religions through these
revelations, Masonry became the depository of the Divine Truth in its symbols,
traditions, legends, and mysteries and has preserved Truth through all the centuries of
the past.”
Masonry only is the “depository of Divine Truth,” we are told. It is based, the writer
tells us, on symbols, traditions, legends, and mysteries. We recall Jesus warning that the
Jews had for their religion, not instruction from the Divine, but had the “traditions of
elders,” the “traditions of men.” Their heads and eyes were therefore fixed not on God’s
laws, but on Satan and his devices (see Matthew 23)
Pike explains this as follows. He twists this truth when he writes that all of man’s other
sectarian religions are based solely on “the works of men.”
“All that ever existed have had a basis of truth; and all have overlaid that truth with
error.” (Morals and Dogma, p. 161)
Christianity, Pike claims, is inferior to the primitive and universal religion taught and
practiced in Masonry because of its narrow, regional focus. But the Masonic faith, set
upon the pillars of the Judaic Kabbalah, is, he writes, “the universal morality which is
suitable to the inhabitants of every clime, to the man of every creed.” (Morals and Dogma,
p. 161)
It is thus necessary, adds Pike, acknowledged as the “Master Builder” of Freemasonry
and Father of its 33 degree rituals, for men to push on past the “mythologies” of their
childhood religion.
“The progressive man,” says Pike, “goes ever forth to fresh fields and pastures new.”
(Morals and Dogma, pp. 161-162)
In attaining higher Masonic degrees and especially the 27th and 30th degrees of
Freemasonry, the candidate takes an oath to follow and obey these better teachings. He
says he will, indeed, abandon the myths taught him as a child by his sectarian religion
(Christianity, Islam, etc.) and go forward toward his supposed high calling as a Mason.
See what you have to look forward to as a lower-level Mason? You will eventually be
challenged by the Lodge to ditch the Christian principles and foundation you were taught
by your parents and by your Church. Make up your mind now what you will do. The
wrong decision will surely weigh on you for all eternity.
Chapter 8
Is the Masonic Lodge “Mystery Babylon?”
“Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the
traditions of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.” —
Colossians 2:8
According to Pike, Hall, Wilmshurst, and all the “great” scholars and leaders of
Freemasonry, the Masonic Lodge comes straight out of Babylon. Anyone who denies this
fact is simply an idiot who knows nothing of Freemasonry.
Now I am sure you expect me to prove this Babylonian connection, and I will. It is my
pleasure to do so. But first, let’s examine what the Holy Bible has to say about “Mystery,
Babylon the Great.”
Mystery Babylon is mentioned extensively in the Bible. Babylon is one of the great
cities of the ancients. It was founded by the wicked King, Nimrod, and his seductive and
alluring wife, Queen Semiramis. After Nimrod’s death, Semiramis incestuously married
their son, Tammuz, claiming that Tammuz was the reincarnation of his father, Nimrod.
Thus, the pagan trinity of Father, Mother, and Son came into being. Today, Freemasonry
continues its adoration and worship of the pagan trinity, including the Hindu version in its
higher degrees.
Now it was at Babylon, in Sumaria (today Babylon is in Iraq) where the infamous
Tower of Babel was built. We read in Genesis 11:1-4:
“And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass,
as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they
dwelt there… And they said, go to, let us build a city and tower, whose top may reach
unto heaven.”
Here we see the hubris, or pride of the Babylonians. They wanted to extend their city
into heaven. They wanted to become higher “gods.” They were united in this vain effort.
But of course, the Bible records that God confounded them, by making the people speak
different languages. Confused and disunited, the Tower building project fell into disarray
and ruin.
The Masons of today continue in their vainglorious quest for supremacy. They now
attempt to unite all religions and cults in a fantastic spiritual building project, and they are
assisted in these efforts by demons who are the invisible powers behind Freemasonry and
its deceptive, secretive Mystery Religion.
Listen to what Manly P. Hall, 33°, says on page 58 of his book, What the Ancient
Wisdom Expects of Its Disciples:
“The ancient initiates are the invisible powers behind the thrones of earth, and men
are but marionettes, dancing while the invisible ones pull the strings. We see the
dancer, but the master mind that does the work remains concealed by the cloak of
silence.
Who are these “ancient initiates” to whom Hall refers? The Mason will meet them in
the higher degrees. Albert Pike, in Morals and Dogma explains that in the 32nd Degree,
“The true initiate is both King and Priest over the people.”
So listen up, Mason, you have an invisible initiate watching over you, directing your
path. You are not independent as you so smugly pretend. The initiates are both “King and
Priest” over you!
In Revelation 13, the scriptures tell us that Mystery Babylon is a whorish religion that
spreads throughout the world in the last days. She’s a monstrous killer of truth and a dealer
in death to men and women. In Revelation 17, Mystery Babylon rides the Beast of
prophecy.
Could Freemasonry be the horrific “Mother of Harlots?” Is Freemasonry, like the
Woman, drunken with the blood of the saints and the martyrs of Jesus? What do the
masses themselves say about their ancient connection with Mystery Babylon?
Mystery Babylon is the “Mother” of all the Mystery religions, and these Mystery
religions spread throughout the world after the confounding of the Builders at the Tower
of Babel. Mystery religions prevailed in ancient Greece, Rome, Egypt, Sumaria, Persia,
China, Tibet, North Africa and the Americas. (In the Americas, the Incas, the Mayans, the
Toltecs, and others are examples). But it was in Babylon that the Mystery Religion first
flourished and became illustrious and decadent.
In his Masonic textbook, Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike waxes rhapsodic about all
these “great” Mystery religions. He describes them, one after another, and he notes their
positive identity with Freemasonry, which, he and other Masons contend, is the Mystery
Religion par excellence. They are all religions, but Freemasonry, claims Pike, is the
religion.
According to Pike, Freemasonry existed “from the cradle of the human race:”
“But, by whatever name it was known in this or the other country, Masonry existed as
it now exists, the same in spirit and heart…before even the first colonies emigrated
into Southern India, Persia, and Egypt, from the cradle of the human race.” (pp. 207-
208)
Quite an admission, isn’t it? And Pike goes on to say that in almost all these ancient
Mystery religions, of which Freemasonry is most prominent, the worshippers adored the
Holy Serpent, by whatever name he was called.
Now, if Freemasonry is really this ancient, then its founders, whether real or legendary,
were also ancient. And if Freemasonry was the first and the most preeminent of Mystery
Religions, and if it can be traced back to the very “cradle of the human race,” then it had
its origins in the Garden of Eden, where Lucifer seduced Eve first, and Adam and Eve
suffered the Great Fall.
From the expulsion time of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden, we find cities
being built, first by Cain and then by others. Finally, in Mesopotamia, the city of Babylon
was built with its infamous Tower of Babel. There, as we discussed, Nimrod was King.
Could Nimrod have been a Freemason? That is exactly what we are told in the
Encyclopedia of Freemasonry! The Encyclopedia, in fact, says that Nimrod was one of the
founders of Masonry.
Nimrod, the wicked self-proclaimed “God” and Nimrod, the “Hunter of Men” (see the
book of Genesis in the Holy Bible), a founder of Freemasonry? That is exactly what the
Masonic Lodge claims. And so we have this incredible connection between ancient
Babylon and Modern Freemasonry.
The “Oath of Nimrod” is a feature of the initiation process for the Indentured
Apprentice Degree (see Spring 2006 issue of Freemasonry Today).
In his scholarly book, The Arcana of Freemasonry, Albert Churchward includes the text
of the “Oath of Nimrod.” The penalty for the Freemason revealing this oath is nothing less
than the forfeiture of his life.
Christian researcher, Cathy Burns in her excellent Masonic and Occult Symbols
Illustrated gives two examples of the Masonic Lodge’s connection to the heaven-accursed
Tower of Babel. In the Masonic Quiz Book the authors say that Nimrod, king of Babylon
responsible for the Tower fiasco, is referred to in Masonry as “One of the founders of
Masonry, and in the Scriptures as the architect of many cities.”
Meanwhile, in a document called the York manuscript we find this glowing account of
the Tower of Babel:
“At the making of the Tower of Babel there was Masonry much esteemed…Nimrod
was a Mason himself and loved well Masons.”
Nimrod, history records, was a very wicked ruler who sponsored abominable sorcery
and magical practices. His Mystery religion in Babylon offered human sacrifices,
practiced incest and sexual witchcraft, introduced astrology and divination, worshipped
various demonic entities, and exercised fire and sun worship.
And the Masons of today boast that their founder, Nimrod “was a Mason himself who
loved well Masons.”
Evidence is abundant that the Masons are extremely proud of their ancient Tower of
Babel, built by beings disrespectful and disobedient to God in heaven. Arthur Edward
Waite, editor of A New Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, reveals that, “The Candidate (for
the Noachite or Prussian Knight Degree) is shown the Tower of Babel and the Mausoleum
of Peleg,” its Grand Architect.
Waite also states, “As regards Masonry, Babel, of course, represented a Masonic
enterprise.”
John Yarker, another highly esteemed scholar and author, writes, “It is well-known that
the Tower of Babel was one of the ancient traditions of Masonry.”
Now, whether the Tower of Babel narrative is simply a fictitious tale by Masons proud
of its structure or is true history is irrelevant. The fact is, Masonry wants the world to
know that the Masons are responsible for this incredible affront to Almighty God. It is
their project—and the Devil’s.
Nimrod is not the only member of the ancient Babylonian people and builder of the Tower
who is recognized by today’s Freemasons. The architect of the Tower of Babel is also
honored by the Masonic Lodge in the 21st degree, that of Noachite, or the Prussian Knight
Degree:
“This Degree stands alone in Masonry… In this Degree a man named Peleg is the
Founder of this Degree by virtue of his position as the Grand Architect of the Tower
of Babel. He is said to have traveled to Prussia during the dispersion where he died.
In AD 553 his tombstone was found with the inscription: “Here rests the ashes of
Peleg, our Grand Architect of the Tower of Babel.”
According to the Masons, Peleg, Grand Architect of the Tower of Babel, a structure
erected by prideful would-be man-gods and destroyed by God from heaven, “is blessed by
Almighty God because he is such a humble man.” Say What?! Are you kidding me?
Pike also explains that, “everything scientific and grand is borrowed from the Kabbalah.”
Therefore, to grasp the work and dogma of all the Illuminati; we once again turn to the
Kabbalah.
It is fortuitous that this is so because I have spent much of my life examining and
studying the Jewish Kabbalah and the Jewish philosophers who promote and publish the
doctrines found therein. I have recently written five books devoted to the Kabbalah,
including Conspiracy of the Six-Pointed Star, The Destroyer, Holy Serpent of the Jews,
Feast of the Beast, and Hell’s Mirror. In addition, my earlier books, New Age Cults and
Religions, Dark Secrets of the New Age, Mystery Mark of the New Age, and Ravaged by
the New Age meticulously examine the many cults and false religions spawned by the
Kabbalah.
I am also author of Mysterious Monuments, an encyclopedic book in which I review
and critique the corrupt architecture and teachings of the Mystery religions of antiquity
and the modern era. Another book which has had a great impact is my Codex Magica, an
illustrated handbook to the secret symbols, hand signs, and coded language of the Masonic
Lodge and of various illuminist secret societies and Mystery religions.
As demonstrated in my many books, Judaism is a tragically misunderstood religion.
Christians mistakenly believe that the Jews practice Old Testament religion.
In fact, Jewish rabbis know little of the books of the Old Testament. They attend years
in a Yeshiva (religious seminary) but many spend not a day studying the Old Testament,
which their instructors tell them is full of myths and legends and is not worthy of their
time. However, depending on the Yeshiva and its emphasis, much time is spent on both the
Babylonian Talmud and the Kabbalah. Increasingly, the Kabbalah is the preferred tool of
Judaic study.
The Talmud and Kabbalah are both vital to Judaic teachings, and the Talmud includes
much commentary and instruction from the Kabbalah. While both are products of men, the
Kabbalah is claimed to have been inspired by angels.
The Kabbalah is at the very heart of Judaism. It grips the Jew with its bizarre doctrinal
structure and introduces a fascinating array of mystical, magical practices. These magical
practices include the use of secret symbols, gematria (the magic of numerology),
astrology, angelology, necromancy (communication with the dead), chanting, mantras,
goddess worship and sexual magic, divination, color mysticism, alteration of
consciousness, psychic mind powers, idol worship, and many other elements of witchcraft
and black magic.
The Kabbalah is a Mystery religion, traceable back to Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Rome,
Asia Minor and North Africa. A study of the many Mystery religions is enlightening. The
Jew is persuaded by his racist rabbi superior that the Kabbalah is exclusive to the Jews
but, in fact, it is based on universalist dogma. That is why Freemasonry has adopted the
Kabbalah as its foundation for doctrine, morals, and as a guide for all its degrees. Masons
are thereby able to claim universal Mystery religion status while simultaneously
portraying their religion as Judaic.
Some Christians enthusiastically join the Lodge because they are practicing a loose
form of Judaism. The symbols are often the same as employed in synagogues; religious
language and history which sound like that in the Old Testament is heard and even the
names of the 33 degrees often have Jewish titles. Most Christian denominations—
Southern Baptist, Methodist, Episcopal, etc.—are extremely Judeo-centric. Many churches
romanticize the Jewish festivals and greatly exalt Judaic heroes from the Holy Bible.
Under the circumstances, the Christian feels “at home” in the Lodge with its kabbalistic
Judaism moorings and environment.
The Christian overlooks or diminishes in his mind the Lodge’s constant complementary
emphasis on the many historic Mystery religions. He believes the study of these
antiquated Mystery religions is merely for his further education and enlargement of his
knowledge.
The Masonic authorities ingeniously and repeatedly use the drumbeat of Mystery religion
propaganda to divert their members away from sectarianism, which is the avowed
principal enemy of the Masonic Lodge. Sectarianism, that is, elevation and worship by the
individual of his specific monotheistic religion—in this case, Christianity, is forbidden.
The exaltation of the name of Jesus as Lord and Saviour is not allowed in the Masonic
rituals. That is sectarianism, and since Masonry is based on the universalistic Mystery
religion of Kabbalism, Sectarianism is strictly prohibited.
Sectarian religions such as Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism are assigned by
Freemasonry to the status of just another limited religious system. The Holy Bible, the
Koran, and other holy books are considered as “furniture” in the Lodge and there are no
body of teachings of Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, engaged in by the Lodge.
The insistence by a lower-level Christian Mason of his continued exclusive worship of
Jesus Christ will blunt his climb up the degree ranks and he will be judged as unfitting for
high Masonic office. Subordination of his sectarian faith is the desired route for Masons.
The Mason will discover by the 30th degree that to receive more “light” as a Mason, he
is expected to abandon his exclusive belief in Jesus as Lord and Saviour. He must then
renounce Jesus and embrace Masonry only. At that point, the Mason may keep his useless
title of “Christian” Baptist, Episcopal, etc., but he knows this title is only for social
purposes, or to please family or community, or for tradition.
In the 30th degree, toleration by the Mason of Christianity and other religions will end. He
will affirm that Masonry is the only true religion and that exclusive belief in inferior gods
like Jesus is unacceptable. It will not be tolerated.
However, Masonry’s highest authorities and top scholars agree, without argument, that
Freemasonry is ultimately the same religion as Judaism. And that is why Jews pack the
Masonic Lodges. They find in its rituals, dogma, and mysticism a worthy version of their
very own religion. Freemasonry is Judaism.
If Masonry downgrades Jesus Christ, dismisses the Holy Bible and insists that it is
something other than Christianity, why do some Masons doggedly hold on to their
identification as “Christians?”
Could it be that, in fact, they are not Christians but are pseudo-Christians, imitation
believers possessing a lukewarm faith? Did Jesus not say that, “many are called but few
are chosen?” (Matthew 20:16). Did he not also warn that those who are neither cold nor
hot but are lukewarm, he will spew them out of his mouth (Revelation 3:15-16)?
Chapter 10
Lucifer, the Light Bearer, Invites You to His House
of Light
“The criers of the Mysteries speak again, bidding all men welcome to the House of
Light.” —Manly P. Hall, 33°, The Secret Teaching of All Ages
We see, then, that Masonry, by the admission of the official spokesmen of the Masonic
Lodge—its 33° representative, Sovereign Grand Commanders—is a Judaic religion. As
such, its adherents testify that their allegiance is not to the doctrine of the Holy Bible, but
to those in the Kabbalah.
Albert Mackey, in The Encyclopedia of Freemasonry (Volume 1, p. 166) repeats that all
of the secrets and symbols of Freemasonry originate in the books of the Kabbalah, which
is said to come from the Jews:
“The mystical philosophy or theosophy of the Jews is called the Kabbalah. The Word
is derived from the Hebrew Kabal, signifying to receive, because it is the doctrine
received from the elders.”
According to Masonry, kabbalism is a very old and primitive, universalist Mystery
religion. From the Kabbalah came all the world’s many Mystery religions. Only it has the
answers that reveal where man comes from and where he is going. In his Revised
Encyclopedia of Freemasonry, (Volume 1, p. 166), Albert Mackey, 33°, one of Masonry’s
greatest scholars, states:
“The Kabbalah was first taught by God to a select company of angels, who formed a
theosophic school in paradise. After the fall, the angels most graciously
communicated this heavenly doctrine to the disobedient child of earth…”
Do you grasp what Mackey is telling readers here? He is claiming that the Kabbalah
originated first in heaven (Paradise), being learned and taught by a “select company of
angels.”
After the fall, according to the Masonic encyclopedia, the angels taught this “heavenly
doctrine” (the Kabbalah) to the “disobedient child of earth.” These legions of Lucifer
continued their wicked rebellion on earth, communicating these bizarre and error-filled
visions to “the disobedient child on earth.” That would be Adam.
Mackey’s encyclopedia claims further that the secrets of Kabbalah were communicated
from Adam to Noah. Now since the teachings of Kabbalah include unholy knowledge of
the forbidden tree of knowledge of good and evil and also communicate lies and
misinformation about God and the Elohim, we begin to understand the magnitude of
deception wrapped up in the doctrines of Kabbalah.
There can be no doubt that the Kabbalah is the most vile religion ever constructed and
thus we understand why the Masons have bought into its multitude of lies. The Masonic
Lodge reveals in this case that the Kabbalah is a masterpiece of deception supposedly
composed first by rebellious angels who, after the fall, communicated its foul doctrines to
mankind, first to Adam, and then on to Noah, Moses, David, and Solomon, and later to
millions of Jews and other human beings by use of the fictitious myths and legends of a
multitude of Mystery religions which spread across the planet earth.
Today, the Kabbalah continues to spread its poisonous teachings through Judaism and
Masonry, as well as a vast number of New Age cults and religions. The millions of men
and women who today grow intoxicated and cold to the Truth are gripped by devils and
rendered immobile to the Gospel. They are truly the “sons of disobedience” and they now
await the Great White Throne judgement.
The Devil has thus made the Kabbalah his chief instrument of human recruitment. It is
easy to understand why the Kabbalah serves in such an universalist capacity. First, and
most important is the working of the God of the Kabbalah. We know him as Satan, or
Lucifer, but his identity is at first rendered unclear to the Jew and to the Mason… In the
Masonic Lodge, the name of Deity is made mysterious and the Mason works through
numerous degrees attempting to discover his true identity. It is the Lost Word he seeks.
Masons are told that their Deity holds the title of Grand Architect of the Universe
(GAOTU). The “G” letter prominently displayed in lodges on the wall behind the altar is
said to mean “God” or stands for Grand Geometrician or Geometry but this is not the Lost
Word. Later, he is told that there is a substitute name he can use in referring to the Deity.
That would be Mahabone. In the 13th degree, the Mason actually declares himself God.
When asked, “who are you?,” he blasphemously replies, “I am that I am.”
Still later, it is revealed to him that the “sacred word” is Abaddon. But the naïve Mason
learns this is yet another title of the God and so he must continue to strive to discover the
Lost Word, the real name. He is told he needs “more light.”
Now, at this point in his Masonic career, when he is told in the 17th degree that the
Sacred Word is Abaddon, which, in Hebrew means “Destroyer,” this should be a clue that
the religion of Masonry is a dangerous and wicked religion. If he were a Bible student, the
Masonic initiate might have read Revelation 9 where we read of a star falling from heaven
unto earth: “And to him was given the key of the bottomless pit.”
From the pit of hell rise demonic creatures like locusts, “and they had tails like
scorpions and there were stings in their tails and their power was to hurt men five
months.”
“And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name
in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon.” (Revelation 9:11)
Masons Exhibit “666” Sign and Are Told That “Jahbulon” is “God”
It is in the Royal Arch degree, York Rite, that the Masonic initiate learns yet another name
for the Deity whom he worships as Grand Architect of the Universe. In the ritual, a “666”
symbol is executed by three Masons and the “ineffable name” is made known to the
candidate: “Jah-Bul-On.” Jahbulon is a composite name for the Masonic Deity but is not
the final, lasting name. It stands for a combination of three specific gods—Jahweh (Jah),
the God of the Hebrews, Baal, or Bul, the ancient, Canaanite fertility god that led the Jews
into licentious sex rites of magic and lust, and finally, On, a name which stands for the
Egyptian Lord of the Dead, the Sun god Osiris.
So Jahbulon is the Masonic worship of “God” as three combined deities, Jahweh, Baal,
and On. How much more blatantly blasphemous can you get? The Masons literally mock
the true God and call him by horrible, sinful names that typify devilish lust and black
magic.
At this stage, having progressed from Mahabone to Abaddon and now Jahbulon, there
can be no doubt Masonry is the worship of none other than Lucifer and the names used for
him in the Masonic rituals are reserved for devils. Even the name Jahweh denotes not the
Jehovah, the Great I Am of the Old Testament, but instead is the title of a tribal Lord
worshipped by the ancient, primitive Jewish people.
Even after this recognition of great evil by the Mason, the Lost Word is hidden from
him. But the initiate cannot escape the fact that he worships Lucifer, the Devil, who is
symbolized in the book of Revelation as the Serpent. With every degree ritual he draws
closer to this monstrous conclusion.
“In every degree in Freemasonry,” says Pike in his book, Liturgy, “the candidate seeks to
attain Light. It is for each individual Mason to discover the secret of Masonry…seek and
ye shall find.”
The candidate is constantly encouraged to study Masonic books and Masonic Law to
supplement and augment the knowledge he has attained directly in the Lodge. Albert
Pike’s classic text, Morals and Dogma is a chief resource, and in studying Pike, the
meaning of the Lost Word rises over and over in his mind. Pike reveals there are in
Kabbalism two main deities, and one of them is Lucifer. Lucifer, the Father of Light, he
who rewarded Adam and Eve for their disobedience in the Garden. Did he not also give
the “son of disobedience” (see Ephesians 2:1,2) the secrets of the Kabbalah?
So what does Pike say to the Mason who constantly seeks more Light about Lucifer, the
one whom Manly P. Hall, 33° later says is the Master of the “House of Light?”
First, a soothing Pike assures the Mason that, “There is no rebellious demon of Evil or
Principle of Darkness in eternal controversy with God.”
Next, he embraces the kabbalistic doctrine that Lucifer is companion of man, a good
angel:
“For the Initiates this is not a person but a force, created for good, but which may
serve for evil. It is the instrument of Liberty or Free Will.”
In the book of Daniel, God testifies that the last days antichrist will be the “God of
Forces.” Pike writes that Lucifer is a “force.” As for “Liberty” and “Free Will,” these are
codewords of Satan, and his human agents insist they wish to bring men “Liberty” from
tyrannical religion, and “Free Will,” meaning the use of Reason without compulsion by
God. The Satanist does not honor the will of God…Pike states:
“Human reason leaps into the throne of God and waves her torch over the ruins of the
universe.”
Pike is adamant about dethroning the true God and giving the reason of man
sovereignty. Listen as he states his points:
“…you are sovereign over yourself and a king over your own passions…
“Masonry is of no Church, but it respects all, so far and so long as they only teach
and persuade, and allow full freedom of thought and freedom of conscience, and the
right of private judgement.
“As Masons we deny the right of any church…to prescribe to men what they shall
believe…”
Masonry, Pike states clearly, is a lawless religion and a “Secret church” that rejects the
Holy Bible and relies on the Reason of its members. Their “private judgement,” he says,
prevails, making them sovereign and unaccountable to the most High God, whom they
refuse to name except in secret to the chosen adepts.
Incensed and angered over the Christian teaching that man must be subservient to and
obey God in all things, Pike goes on to claim that having attained the Light of
Freemasonry, man must give recognition to he who bears the light—that is, the “Light–
bearer.” It is Lucifer who is the source of Light:
“Lucifer the Light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give the spirit of
Darkness! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light? Doubt it
not!”
On page 324, he further describes Lucifer as a Devil: “…a Devil, the fallen Lucifer, or
Light-bearer?”
This catechism about Lucifer is contained in the pivotal 14th degree for Masonic
candidates. In earlier degrees, the Mason is told that the seeking of more and more light is
the primary responsibility of Masons. And now he discovers the identity of the Light-
bearer. It is Lucifer, or Satan, also known as that old Devil, the Serpent. He is
emphatically warned, “Doubt it not!”
Manly P. Hall, 33°, the Masonic scholar, gives Masons more information about Lucifer in
his important book, The Lost Keys of Freemasonry. He writes:
“When the Mason learns the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application
of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mystery of his Craft.
“The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands and before he may step onward
and upward he must prove his ability to properly apply energy.”
Masonry teaches the initiates that its religion is the “direct descendant of the Ancient
Pagan Mysteries” (“Levi Eliphas,” article in Coil’s Masonic Encyclopedia). And we who
are Christians know full well that it is Lucifer who is the Father of these ancient pagan
Mysteries.
Again, I ask the Masons who continue to pretend they are Christian as they move up the
degree ladder, “Are you dumb, deaf and blind? Do you not see who your Masonic Deity
is? Do you think you can freely worship the Great Architect of the Universe as God
knowing he is codenamed in Masonry as Abaddon, Jahbulon, and Lucifer? Have you no
sense at all?”
Surprisingly, a number of high degree Masons have answered this question. Satan, they
admit, is evil, but that is not Lucifer. Lucifer is a good angel. Lucifer and Satan, they
insist, are two different persons. We Masons honor Lucifer; you Christians think him to be
Satan, the Devil. He is not. Lucifer brings us the Light. He is the Light-Bearer. It is, they
say, “he who paved the way for man to advance to godhood.”
These confused Masons point to a recent book, Pilgrim’s Path, by John Robinson, 33°,
in which Robinson attempts to make this same argument. Robinson says that Isaiah 14,
which mentions “Lucifer,” is not about Satan, but has instead been misinterpreted.
What an achievement by Satan, to separate himself from Lucifer in the minds of these
deluded men.
Albert Pike, however, was not deluded. He knew the Jewish Kabbalah and he knew
who Lucifer was as revealed in the Kabbalah. Lucifer, reveals the Kabbalah, is Satan, the
Devil.
Chapter 11
Masons Famous and Infamous
“Each man is his own absolute lawgiver, the dispenser of glory or gloom to himself;
the decreer of his life, his reward, his punishment.” —Henry C. Clausen, 33°, “The
Idyll of the White Lotus,” in Emergence of the Mystical
Is the above quote by Henry C. Clausen, a modern Sovereign Grand Commander of the
Scottish Rite Masonic Lodge, true? Of course not, for it violates the very first of God’s
Ten Commandments. Some Masons disregard the absurd lies and myths of Freemasonry
because they are so enamored of its august and influential membership. They point out to
me that “Freemasonry must be a worthy group. Why, just look at the caliber of its
membership.”
Frankly, Freemasonry has had and continues to have some great personages among it
ranks. Many U.S. Supreme Court Justices were Masons. As many as fourteen U.S.
Presidents have been Masons, including George Washington, James Monroe, Andrew
Jackson, James Garfield, William McKinley, Teddy Roosevelt, William Howard Taft,
Warren Harding, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson, and Gerald Ford.
Some would add Ronald Reagan, William Jefferson Clinton, Barack Obama, and Donald
Trump to this list.
There are also the many Vice Presidents, Senators and Congressmen, FBI Directors,
cabinet members, and ambassadors. And then there are notables like actors Ernest
Borgnine, comedians Red Skelton, Red Buttons and Jack Benny, magician Harry Houdini,
baseball player Ty Cobb, writer Mark Twain, astronaut Virgil Grissom, musician and
composer Wolfgang Mozart, and patriot, Benjamin Franklin.
But wait…
Hold on, dear friend, true, you will find many famous men who have been and are
Freemasons. But you’ll also find quite a few very evil and extremely distasteful names on
the Masonic rolls as well. Here’s just a partial list of unsavory Freemasons:
What Masons want to keep hidden is how many truly great men have over the years
renounced and denounced the Masonic Lodge. These men knew that Freemasonry is
definitely not a virtuous organization.
President John Quincy Adams: John Quincy Adams, the sixth President of the United
States spent over seven years investigating the Masonic Lodge after the “Captain Morgan
Affair” in which Captain Morgan, an ex-Mason was stalked and murdered by fellow
Masons after revealing the secrets of their handshakes. His throat had been slashed from
ear to ear, just as is stated in the Masonic oath all Masons take. Morgan’s body was then
thrown into a lake. Adams, outraged over this barbaric homicide, writes of his
investigation’s findings:
“I saw a Code of Masonic Legislation adapted to prostrate every principle of equal
justice, and to corrupt every sentiment of virtuous feeling in the soul of him who
bound his allegiance to it. I saw the practice of common honesty, the kindness of
Christian benevolence, even the abstinence from atrocious crimes, limited
exclusively by lawless oaths, and barbarous penalties, to the social relations between
the brotherhood of the Craft. I saw slander organized into a secret, widespread,
agency fixing its invisible wings into the heart of the Lodge room. I saw selfinvoked
invocations of throats cut from ear to ear, of heart and vitals torn out and cast to the
wolves and vultures, of skulls smitten off, and hung on spires. I saw wine drank from
a human skull… Such are the laws of Masonry, such their indelible character, and
with that character perfectly corresponded the history of the abduction and murder of
Morgan, and the history of Masonic Lodges, chapters, and encampments, from that
day to present.” (Adams, Letters on Freemasonry, reprinted, 2001, Spicewood,
Texas, RiverCrest Publishing)
John Quincy Adams, a dedicated Christian considered by many to be the most
intelligent of all American Presidents, was a brilliant man, educated in Europe, who spoke
six languages. His father, the famous founding father John Adams, was the nation’s
second President. He also refused to become a Freemason. John Adams wrote in 1823,
after he was President:
“I do conscientiously and since believe that the order of Freemasonry, if not the
greatest, is one of the greatest moral and political evils under which the Union is now
laboring.”
Millard Fillmore, the thirteenth President of the United States, also considered
Freemasonry as a great evil. He wrote:
“The Masonic fraternity tramples upon our rights, defeats the administration of
justice, and bids defiance to every government which it cannot control.” (Presidents
of the United States, Chicago: National Christian Association, 1953)
John Marshall, America’s first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, left the Lodge after
first joining, when he realized its lack of moral bearings. He wrote:
“The institution of Masonry ought to be abandoned as one capable of much evil, and
incapable of producing any good…”
Many dedicated Christian Pastors have first joined, then were led by God to renounce
Freemasonry. John R. Rice, the well-known Baptist Pastor and author of numerous books
is one. In his excellent Lodges Examined by the Bible, he tells of many others who also
left the Lodge, after being convicted that it was a grievous sin to remain a Mason. Rice
found that the Lodges are full of unsaved men, including many who deny the blood of
Jesus Christ. He writes:
Repeatedly, from many, many sources I have heard that in Masonic lodges it was not
proper for people to pray in the name of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord. For
instance, I have before me a statement by Mr. Wendell P. Loveless. Mr. Loveless was
ex-chaplain of the Masonic Lodge at Wheaton, Illinois. He says:
“I was regularly initiated into seven degrees of the Masonic Order, holding, for a
time, the Office of Chaplain in the Blue Lodge, and my knowledge of this society is
therefore the result of my experience as a member of it. I now hold a regular demit
from the order, which indicates that I was in good and regular standing when I
seceded from it.” (Page 1, The Christian and Secret Societies, by Loveless; National
Association)
After showing how he was compelled by the Lord to leave the Masonic Lodge and
come out from the unbelievers there, Mr. Loveless says (page 14):
“As Chaplain in the Masonic Lodge, I offered the prayers of the lodge and heard
many others offered, but never once in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. His name
is excluded. Certainly it must be very plain that a true believer in Jesus Christ can
have no fellowship in that kind of organization. Lodge prayers are not offered in the
name of Jesus Christ. The lodge promises the unconverted Jew, the Hindu, the
Mohammedan, or any Christ-rejecting sinner who believes there is a Supreme Being,
that he may come to the lodge and there find nothing to offend. Since unconverted
sinners do not love Jesus Christ, since modernists and rationalists deny that He is the
very Son of God, atoning for man’s sins, and the only way to salvation, and since
Mohammedans and Hindus, like other pagans and heathens, reject Christ and do not
accept Him as the Saviour, Son of God and very God, then the lodges shut out Jesus
Christ that they may not offend those who hate Him and reject Him!”
A famous Southern Baptist preacher wrote me saying that in a Masonic Lodge
meeting he prayed and was rebuked for offering his petition in the name of Jesus
Christ, God’s Son, the only Saviour. Because of that rebuke, showing the utterly
unchristian and anti-Christian character of the lodges, he discontinued attendance on
the lodge.
Martin Wagner, a Pastor who was so convinced of the spiritual dangers of the Lodge
that he authored a book, Freemasonry: An Interpretation, which exposes the Order,
concluded:
“The whole system is a giant evil. We firmly believe it is the greatest foe that the
church has to contend against. It insidiously undermines and overthrows the very
foundations of evangelical Christianity. Its tendency is to make men indifferent to
doctrine and hostile to the positive teaching of Revelation as embodied in the
church’s creeds and catechisms.”
Wagner’s contention that the Masonic Lodge “undermines” the Church is justified.
Masonry strangles belief in church doctrine and replaces it in the minds and hearts of its
members with the fancies and myths of the ancient Mystery religions. It tells the Mason
that the Church and the religion of his parents should be abandoned as rank superstition
and nonsense. Listen to top Masonic authority W. L. Wilmshurst, 33°, as he insists in his
book, The Masonic Initiation, that as a man grows, he must cast aside the juvenile
superstitious myths of his youth:
“It is well for a man to be born in a Church but terrible for him to die in one; for in
religion there must be growth…the elderly man…ought to have outgrown what the
Church offers and have attained a higher order of religious life.”
Wilmshurst Affirms the Teachings of Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai, Taught in the 30th
Degree
Wilmshurst is, in fact, affirming the warped and unscriptural teachings of the Knight
Kadosh, the Man in the Coffin, in the 30th Degree ritual. What horror, what deception is
found in these tragic teachings.
That Masonic authority Wilmshurst would affirm the ungodly teachings of kabbalistic
Rabbi Simeon Bar Yochai for the 30th Degree is understandable. The Kabbalah and
Judaism insist that it is the Jewish RACE that will evolve into godhood. The Jews, and the
few Gentiles who follow their pernicious doctrine, will supposedly perfect themselves and
rise through many incarnations. At perfection, says the Kabbalah, the Jew will become his
own Messiah. No need for a Saviour, Jesus.
George Steinmetz, 33° Masonic authority, explains (in the book, The Truth Twisters, p.
83, by Harold Berry) that Hindu reincarnation comes from the Jewish Kabbalah, And
neither Hindu nor Jewish philosophy, he says “has ever taught of the coming of an
individual who would be the ‘Saviour,’ the Messiah or Redeemer.” Instead, these religions
and Freemasonry teach that through many incarnations and the slow process of evolution,
the initiate will rise to perfection:
“The Messiah, then, will be the final achievement of the plan of the Supreme
Architect the—perfection of the race.”
Once again we find in the Masonic Lodge the same old lie told to Adam and Eve in the
Garden: “Ye shall be as gods.”
********
CONCLUSION
Jesus Christ Reveals His Secrets to His Friends of the Christian Church
Of course, Masonry emphasizes that only those Masons who are initiated can learn the
hidden secrets of the Masonic Lodge. Only they shall become gods. The Superiors keep
secrets from the profane and the undeserving. The Mason must continue to strive toward
perfection and work to discover and acquire “more Light.” He is trapped. He becomes the
unknowing servant of evil.
Not so for the Christian. Jesus reveals his secrets to every man who believes in Him.
Such men are not treated as servants but as friends.
John 15:15 clearly states: “Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth
not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of
my Father I have made known unto you.”
Oh to be the incomparable friend of Jesus! What a glory to be encompassed in His
Light—the very Light of the world. What a joy to know the unfathomable secrets of our
Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
The Church is the Body of Christ. It incorporates the love and wields the power and
strength of Jesus Christ. We grow in its compassion and through its concepts and precepts.
It is eternal, and so are we, as born again Christians, kept holy and spotless through the
might and power of Jesus Christ to whom we give everlasting thanks.
My hope and prayer for Masons is that they will firmly reject the kabbalism of the
Masonic Lodge and will truly attain the “Light of the World” by faith in Jesus Christ as
Lord and Saviour.
