Allow a former mason to address the video’s remarks.

Freemasonry is not a religion. It requires a belief in a higher authority. Without such a belief no oath you could take would be binding. They do in fact require you to swear an oath upon initiation.

As a former mason, I parted ways with the craft over my inability to square freemasonry with my faith. I am a Christian and as such, God is the King of my life.

Read the ritual for yourself.

Pay attention to the prayers and lectures.

Do I believe freemason’s are the scary boogeyman that they are being made out to be, no. Most of the time they had to choose dinner by committee. Do I believe some people who are in power are freemason’s, why of course.

I have met some truly excellent people during my time with freemasonry. I do not think any less of them for their membership. Some I still count as friends today. Each man must choose his path and what he can live with.

Salvation comes through Jesus alone.

I apologize, I never actually bothered to include my comments on the video.

freemasonry is incompatible with Christianity. I suppose it could lead to some worship of lucifer but like all things, the point from a to devil worship is not straight or simple. I do not say this in support of the craft. The things that the video’s author fails to understand is that what he is quoting is out of context. The page he quotes from Morals and Dogma is not what he says it is. It would be my humble opinion that he is sensationalizing this. His expose is nothing new or groundbreaking. I see it as a cry for attention.
