Masons deny membership to those who simply state they believe in God through faith in Christ.

This is incorrect. The petition for degrees simply asks: "Do you believe in a Supreme Being?"

All that is required is that the question be answered in the affirmative. No further inquiry is allowed.

Post #36 will be the last I have to say on this thread.

The "haters" have arrived.

You misunderstand my statement. It is not an accusation. It is testimony.

Why is it that the Shriners have a no charge hospital in Mexico City, a city that is overwhelmingly Catholic, if the Masons are anti-Catholic?

Perhaps the answer can be found by reading Rudyward Kipling's THE MOTHER LODGE.

One isn't saved by believing in God. The gospel is that we are saved by having faith in what He has provided for salvation, namely our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.

When a believer seeks to glorify Christ and is denied acceptance for stating He believes through faith in the Son, those who reject him are placing their organization ahead of glorifying God through faith in Christ.
