Gnosticism, Freemasonry, Moral Relativism & the Modern Church

I know that's a long and complex title for a blog, but as I consider my perspective of where we are in Christianity today, they all come into focus. In fact, the history of how we got here is indeed long and complex. I hope to give you some information to contemplate and research so you can develop and understand your worldview.

It is precisely because I have worked to mature my own worldview [and from a decidedly biblical stance] that I began to see how these philosophies have infiltrated what the religion of Christianity has become. I had a somewhat simplistic and basic understanding of each belief system, but was naive enough to consider them as separate entities and did not conceive of the possibility that each could have influenced the others and infiltrated the Christian religion. But as I began to study the Bible more and the history of the world and religion, I also saw how tenets of each philosophy began to corrupt the teachings about the Bible, and even the various versions of the Bible down through the centuries.

So, let me just start with Gnosticism and see how it interacts with the others and discern what picture begins to emerge. Both the Disciple John and Apostle Paul expressed their argument against Gnosticism in the Bible. What is Gnosticism? At its core, Gnosticism believes that matter (as represented by the body) is evil and the spirit is good. According to the gnostic belief system, one need not worry about a moral lifestyle in the physical; it was the attainment of "sacred, divine" knowledge that was important and significant. Furthermore, they believed they had knowledge of God that was exclusive; specifically that the "spirit" of man was ignorant and needed to be "awakened". They believed they had the special knowledge that could liberate or "activate" the human spirit, or "illuminate" it. 

Is this beginning to sound familiar? Remember my post from a few days back about the tree of knowledge in the Garden of Eden? And how God shared His knowledge with Adam, but that depending on whether man descended from the line of Adam's evil son, Cain, or his righteous son, Seth, that knowledge was used to either corrupt the world, or was for the good of the world? God bequeathed knowledge to man to control the universe, provided that he mastered the wisdom given to him, and did not use this divine gift for evil. But everything that God entrusted to Adam became susceptible to the corruption of this "sacred and divine" knowledge after the Fall. The Gnostics claimed they were the repository of this sacred knowledge from antiquity, but in reality, what they inherited were the "sacred mysteries" in the religious rites and ceremonies instituted by Cain and his evil son, Enoch (not to be confused with Enoch, the son of Jared, whom God took to Heaven without dying). And this corrupted knowledge came because Adam disobeyed God in the Garden, and Satan gained access to the knowledge from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil.

These Gnostics are the "false teachers" referred to in the Bible and specifically in 1 John 4:5-6 ... They [who teach twisted doctrine] are of the world and belong to it; therefore they speak from the [viewpoint of the] world [with its immoral freedom and baseless theories—demanding compliance with their opinions and ridiculing the values of the upright], and the [gullible one of the] world listens closely and pays attention to them. ⁶ We [who teach God’s word] are from God [energized by the Holy Spirit], and whoever knows God [through personal experience] listens to us [and has a deeper understanding of Him]. Whoever is not of God does not listen to us. By this we know [without any doubt] the spirit of truth [motivated by God] and the spirit of error [motivated by Satan].

The Apostle Paul emphasizes the same warning in 1 Timothy 6:20-21 ... O Timothy, guard and keep safe the deposit [of godly truth] entrusted to you, turn away from worldly and godless chatter [with its profane, empty words], and the contradictions of what is falsely called “knowledge” and spiritual illumination ²¹ which some have professed and by doing so have erred (missed the mark) and strayed from the faith. 

That word "knowledge" is the Greek word gnosis, from which we get the word Gnosticism. But how has this concept of false and corrupted knowledge come to relate to Freemasonry, Moral Relativism, and the modern Church? For a comprehensive understanding of this ancient religion [for that is what it is], I invite you to go back and read my multi-part discourse on Freemasonry, its origins and infiltration of the Church. For the sake of brevity, let me simply say this: Freemasons see themselves as the recipients of the mysteries and secrets of what was revealed to Cain and his progeny by the Fallen Angels. They believe themselves to be "the illumined ones" [think Illuminati], and they believe this divine knowledge is to be kept exclusive and reserved for the elite. The masses are undeserving of it. Furthermore, as guardians of the corrupted Sacred Sciences, they are a force against pure religion. Gnosticism became a major challenge for the Early Church by the middle of the Second Century, and Freemasonry is steeped in Gnosticism in the oaths it takes, and the rites and rituals within the Lodge. 

The foundation for Freemasonry began in pre-flood antiquity, and it has been shrouded in secrecy and mystery ever since. The modern era of Freemasonry became popular in the 18th century, and coincided with the birth of modern science which began to separate itself from religion. This new effect of science on Christianity resulted in a theology that began to reject and deny the literal truth of the Bible in favor of one that became infected with allegorical interpretations. [This created a huge schism between literal and interpretative translations of the Bible.] Just read any of the oaths of Freemasonry and you will see the truth of the Word of God mocked in their pagan and idolatrous rituals. But remember, what is done in the world is of no consequence. They believe they are the keepers of the sacred knowledge of their god. But who is that god? To start at the beginning of my research, start here to find out.

Moving on, since ancient gnostics only prized "spiritual and illuminated knowledge", and discarded matters of the physical body and material world as irrelevant to "divine enlightenment", then moral laws regarding the actions of the body in the material world are of no consequence. In other words, they regard the moral law of God [regarding sexual sin and perversion, for example; or lying, or cheating, or even killing] as of no use or obligation because faith alone [in the spirit] is necessary to receive salvation. Furthermore, the literal death, burial, and resurrection of the physical Jesus comes under scrutiny.

Can you see how erasing the moral laws of God from the "the divine knowledge of God" is corrupted and can lead to Moral Relativism? When you understand this term to mean the worldview that ethical standards, morality, and positions of right and wrong are culturally based and therefore subject to a person's individual choice, then you can see how easily it is to lessen the supremacy of God in a society. We see this worldview in the "My body, my choice" mantra in regards to the abortion issue. Any concept that God is involved in the creation of that baby is part of the belief system that the creation of the visible world is useless. Therefore, there is no need to keep the body pure. The distinction between male and female genders is immaterial and marriage is seen as a disembodied and subjective relationship between any two (or more?) people. And since the body is of no importance, then a belief in the resurrection of the body is baseless. 

That is irreconcilable for any true Christian, and although Gnosticism was rejected successfully in the Early Church, it never really went away. It can be seen in our culture that advances the ideas of self-discovery, self-awareness, and any rejection of authority -- it's all about self, and can be summarized in this quote by John Lennon: "The only true Christians were the Gnostics, who believe in self-knowledge, i.e. becoming Christ themselves, reaching the Christ within". This worldview is perpetuated when Christians seek a closer relationship with God outside of what God reveals in His Word. Yes, I believe God wants us to press into Him, to get closer, but if we are embracing our own subjective understanding of spirituality and of God, apart from the wisdom we receive from Holy Spirit and Father God, then we are in danger of elevating our self-generated gnosis above God's.

I will tell you this is a fine line to walk in the faith life of today. There is nothing wrong in seeking more of Jesus and God. It delights the Father when He conceals a matter in His Word, and we seek it out (Proverbs 25:2). And I believe just as John and Paul were able to discern the man-made teachings that didn't line up with God's moral laws or Jesus's teachings, we in the 21st Century are able to discern the man-made doctrines that have clouded our understanding of God's infallible Word that have come down to us in denominationalism. But when you consider the early Gnostic's belief that gnosis could only be found through a "spiritual" experience, then you can see traces of rejection of the material body in our existence through the pursuit of uploading our brains to "the Cloud", and embracing everything "virtual". It may look different in the 21st Century, but Gnosticism is alive and well.

Consider the emerging beliefs in the modern Church that the Bible can be read, but not considered "inspired"; that the authority of God is not implicit in a life of faith; that the testimonies of the writers of the Gospels are not trustworthy to be recognized or preserved; or even that the birth, death, and resurrection of our Lord never actually happened.  These false ideas are once again introducing Gnosticism to a new generation. I fear that the ancient belief system of Gnosticism is prevalent in our society and has never given up on its false teachings or desire to infiltrate the True Church. Let us take heed of the warning of the Early Church Fathers, who said, "These men .... overthrow the faith of man, by drawing them away, under a pretense of knowledge, from Him who founded and adorned the universe" (Irenaeus, c. 130-202 AD) .... "I want to forewarn you not to get snagged on the hooks of worthless opinions but instead to be fully convinced of the birth and the suffering and the resurrection [of Christ]" (Ignatius, c. 35 - 108 AD). Let us heed their warnings and stay true to the inspired Word of God, even as we carry out our assignments for His Kingdom on earth.

 Colossians 2:8    See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception [pseudo-intellectual babble], according to the tradition [and musings] of mere men, following the elementary principles of this world, rather than following [the truth—the teachings of] Christ.

 

"Share What You Have Learned" - Part One

     This past weekend, Mark and I gave a 6-hour teaching to a group of about 60 Christians, titled Freemasonry, The New World Order, and the Anti-Christ spirit". It was the result of a five-year search for God's Truth concerning Satan's attacks on our nation and the world. In addition, through our Inner Healing Ministry, we have also discerned how these often hidden and unidentified spiritual structures have affected the lives of so many people. The Lord had been prompting us to "share what you have learned" for some time, so we set about preparing this extensive presentation to a group of interested Christians.

     The first thing we made clear was that our presentation would challenge each one of them, whether they were new on their journey or a seasoned veteran. As we have continued our research through the years and tried to present it to our fellow Believers, we have discovered that we Christians tend to live in a Christian "bubble" so to speak; a mindset that mirrors that of our secular neighbors -- a sort of "religious normalcy bias". Our faith has been rooted in this theological idea that Jesus is our Savior in everything, and nothing bad can happen to us. And, secondly, we are Americans and nothing as bad as what happened in the Bible is going to happen to us, simply because it hasn't happened yet. I'm sure the Israelites and their status as God's favored nation lulled them into the same false security, too.

     So, the first thing we needed to establish was some Biblical concepts for why we are standing on the wall warning them of things that could be coming. The chaos that ensued in the ancient nation of Israel, and that we are seeing on the streets of our country today, is the result of generational iniquity that has continued in family [and national] bloodlines. Iniquity happens when sin is not confessed and repented and progresses to outright rebellion, which then becomes so twisted and perverted that behavioral patterns and mindsets take hold in our DNA and genes so that wicked behaviors are passed down in our bloodlines. Baal and Molech worship, asherah poles, and groves and high places are examples of the iniquity that ran in the bloodlines of the ancient Israelite kings, who then introduced it to the inhabitants of the tribes of Israel. 

 

     In our history and culture, the brotherhood of Freemasonry has been at the foundation of our national government since its inception. The dome of our national capitol building in Washington, D.C. is painted with a scene called "The Apotheosis of George Washington". The word apotheosis means "the elevation of someone to divine status; deification". Now, since the time I was old enough to read, I have loved the story of the founding of our nation. I was a serious student of American history and the Revolutionary War. I have always believed that freedom and independence flow through the veins of everyone who calls themselves "American". I have been proud to call myself an American and a patriot [and still am]. Don't get me wrong, I still believe that, culturally, this is a Christian nation. BUT, when I discovered that this painting by Constantino Brumidi pictured George Washington as the god of America sitting in the heavens, attended to by the Roman goddesses Columbia [also known as Liberty or Freedom] and Minerva, along with the gods Mercury and Vulcan, my spirit knew this vision of America was not what God had in mind for our nation.

     By the way, Washington was the Worshipful Master of the Freemason Grand Lodge of Maryland. Furthermore, a banner waves over Washington's head with the national motto "E Pluribus Unum"; out of many, one. And our money is printed with the slogan, "Novus Ordo Seclorum"; New order of the Ages. So, was America founded on one of Freemasonry's hidden agendas, a One World Government? Is that why Washington is quoted as saying, "The United States was, and is, the great Masonic experiment?" Was it a coincidence that the artist of the Apotheosis was a 33rd degree Mason, a protégé of Guiseppi Mazzini, also a 33rd degree Mason and the Italian founder of the Mafia, another secret organization? Or that Benjamin Franklin, Samuel Morse [inventor of the telegraph system], and Robert Fulton [inventor of the first steamboat and steam warship] are all 33rd degree Masons and pictured in the painting with Minerva, the goddess of "crafts" and wisdom? And why does the Great Seal of the United States eerily resemble the seal of the Connecticut Freemasons?

     And if you need a refresher on exactly why I am singling out the Freemason aspect of our Founding Fathers, let me refer you to a 3-part series I wrote on the subject, beginning here. For the purpose of this blog post, I need you to understand that I do not judge the hearts of men who decide to join this secretive organization. That is for the Lord to determine. But I can clearly discern that the oaths, curses and rituals they perform mock the Lord, as well as break the commandments He has given us not to do them. Any secret organization that takes oaths to false gods such as Abaddon, Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, On and Osiris, Horus, Thor and Odin, Allah and Lucifer and whose members have been in our government since the beginning and thrive in our current Congress, should make us get on our knees and pray, and then stand up and fight in our God-given power and authority.

     Any secret organization that curses its members for revealing its hidden agenda by releasing the spirit of Python to squeeze the spiritual life out of them; or curses against their bodies, including their throat, vocal cords, nasal passages, heart, chest, or lungs, and engenders a spirit of fear or suicide, is diabolical and wicked. Any secret society that has rituals that include falling into a coffin, drinking from a human skull, taking off the wedding ring and putting on the lodge ring, and combining blood and sex rituals is evil and not of the Lord. 

     I do not dispute that good Christian men are Freemasons. But they are blinded to its nefarious spiritual roots the minute they put that blindfold [called a hoodwink] on at their initiation ceremony. They are introduced to the Business and Charity image of the Lodge and convinced that the words spoken and the rituals enacted are innocent and harmless. They are anything but that to our Lord! I believe that many of the members are incognizant of exactly who and what they are connecting themselves to, and what spirits they are giving legal rights to. 

     Since the Garden of Eden, Satan has been crafty and cunning in all his ways, and he has been able to weave false theology, the occult, and witchcraft into secret societies and organizations that seek to rule the world with him. What I have touched on today is just a small picture of how insidious are his ways. He has been able to weave his web into the fabric of our nation without the masses even being aware of it. In the next post, we will step back and get a broader picture of how this web intersects with the higher levels of Satan's entourage who are even now planning on taking over the world. As Christians, we stand in the way, with the potential to defeat them -- IF we will stand and fight and occupy until the Lord returns. Join me next time as we take a step back and see the Enemy's ultimate plan.

Ephesians 5:11-12      Do not participate in the worthless and unproductive deeds of darkness, but instead expose them [by exemplifying personal integrity, moral courage, and godly character]; for it is disgraceful even to mention the things that such people practice in secret.

    

The Mind of Christ Will Lead You To Truth!

     There are times when I run across a voice that expresses a concept so eloquently and effectively, that I can do no better than to let them speak for themselves. Such is the case with Mack Major, a Christian author, who recently posted the following on his Facebook page. Mr. Major is part of a Christian media group called Eden Decoded which speaks against the demonic-inspired sexualization of America by the media. This particular Facebook post addresses the recent events that have dominated our country over the last few weeks. And in full disclosure, Mr. Mack is a black man, so it is not only interesting to get his perspective, but we can learn and gain further insight from him.
     Regardless of your political affiliation, race, gender, or however you define yourself, please read the entire article. This is not an attempt to vilify any race of people. It is not meant as a political statement. It transcends what the world is showing us to encourage you to dig deeper into the spiritual deception. And it emphasizes that we do not fight against flesh and blood, but the spiritual darkness fomented by the Anti-Christ spirit. I hope you find his viewpoint as informative as I did...  [Posted on June 9, 2020].

      If you've been following my page for any length of time, you know that I deal with two main issues above all others: how the spirit world works, and issues that mainly effect black Americans. It's only logical being that I'm both a Christian and a black American. 
     Over the past week since the death of George Floyd I have used my page to try and get folks to think. Especially black Christians. Christians above all others are called to be wise and astute. Our brains have to function at a higher level than others. 
     We cannot allow ourselves to be sucked down into the depths of stupidity, idiotic thought patterns or unproductive ways of thinking similar to the world. We have to be above the fray, so to speak, and impervious to deception.
     There were many things that didn't sit well with me with the George Floyd death and the subsequent reactions that took place. I immediately smelled something was not right with the timing, the video footage that was shown and looped across social media, and the immediate calls to anger and protest. 
     We were supposed to believe the events that followed happened organically; but somehow it all felt too coordinated. And it was.
     This has been corroborated by various independent phone footage taken during the riots and protests, that show people planting piles of bricks days before the protests/riots started happening.
     Footage also showed people dressed as law enforcement destroying cop cars, telling people to spray paint 'Black Lives Matter' onto walls, randomly attacking peaceful protesters while ignoring the violent ones causing the chaos. A lot of disturbing stuff is starting to come forward letting us know these events were not only planned, but also coordinated at the highest levels. 
     The real issue we face today isn't cops vs black people. It's not black vs white. The real issue is America vs Satan. To be more specific, its American CHRISTIANS vs MASONS. 
     As a believer you MUST understand how principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world and how spiritual wickedness in high places operate. They don't just operate randomly. They operate through human vessels. "We are not fighting against humans. We are fighting against forces and authorities and against rulers of darkness and powers in the spiritual world. " Ephesians 6:12 - Contemporary English Version.

                        Ba'al, Cannanite god             Look familiar?                            

     In our world today, Satan's foot soldiers, his feet on the ground so to speak, are the various branches of different masonic orders that all interlink and interconnect in various levels of government and industry. That doesn't mean all of government is evil. 
     The Bible tells us that government has been ordained by God. But like most other things including the Christian church, government has also been infiltrated by satan's agents; and they're working overtime to sow chaos and destruction in order to enthrone the Evil One over the world via the form of some anti-Christ figure. This was all exposed at length in the Book of Revelation and Book of Daniel in the Bible.
     Either you're going to believe the Bible when it says we wrestle not against flesh and blood, or not. But if you claim the fight is spiritual, why are you resorting to getting into your flesh whenever something happens in the physical realm? OPEN YOUR EYES! The masons have been around for centuries. Their stated goal going back to old Europe was to overthrow monarchies and displace kings who were loyal to Christendom, in order to establish governments under the auspices of Lucifer. And for the clueless: Lucifer is Satan. 
     They were successful at doing this with the French Revolution, where the ruling class and nobility of France were hunted down, rounded up and publicly executed by mobs of citizens that were whipped into a frenzy by masons hidden among them. 
     Remember the Occupy Wall Street movement? It had similar elements to it as the French Revolution where the rich were demonized, because its the same satanic group behind it. None of this mess is organic; it's all highly organized. All one has to do is research a bit to see.
     Many of the founding fathers who signed the Constitution were masons. Not all though. Majority of the non-masons were also against slavery, and lobbied to have slavery outlawed in the Constitution from the beginning. It is factually untrue that America was racist from its beginning. Only certain people were; and they were mostly masons. The irony is that most of you reading this currently support them with your votes, even though it nets you absolutely nothing for doing so.
     It was the masonic faction in America that were your slave-holders, and who caused the Civil War. Did you know there use to be an anti-mason political party in America? Google it. They had a short run as a party, and their whole platform was to make sure masons were exposed and kept out of positions of power in government. They eventually got rolled into the Republican Party. Many of its most prominent members became known later as the Radical Republicans. They're the ones who successfully pushed Reconstruction through Congress after the Civil War, ensuring that black people had access to voting power that lead to a temporary renaissance in the south.
     Since blacks at the time only voted Republican, the Democrats and masons formed the KKK to force black people to stop voting. I don't have time to go in depth into all this in a FB post. But you can find plenty of info online and elsewhere on the subject of masons; including in some of my ebooks.
     One of the elements of society where masons have successfully infiltrated are federal, state and local law enforcement. Don't believe me? Ever hear of the Fraternal Order of Police? They're considered a lodge; which are what local masonic groups are known as. And their members include cops across the country. So when you see rogue cops 'randomly' killing black people, you must look deeper than your emotions and your allegiance to your flesh. Time to put on your thinking caps and start using those spiritual eyes. Ask yourselves: Are they affiliated with the FOP? How many other excessive force or disciplinary cases have they been involved in prior to this incident? 
     The overwhelming majority of police officers are law abiding, honest and hardworking cops who show up, risk their lives and safety to do their jobs. And its often a thankless job. But there is an element within their ranks, albeit small yet highly organized who are actively sowing discord with black communities around the country by stupid senseless acts of violence designed to inflame black passions and cause chaos, strife and destruction. And they are masons.
     Why does the media only highlight police killing black people? Did you know that twice as many unarmed hispanics and sometimes even more unarmed whites are killed by police officers too? Yet the media NEVER highlights those stories? Google Tony Timpa if you don't believe me. He was killed almost identically as Floyd; yet no big media coverage. Because he was white. 
     The media is also in on this agenda to destabilize America via anarchy and distrust in law enforcement. Masons are in the media too! In fact, they've successfully infiltrated every element of society today. This is what Trump keeps referring to as the DEEP STATE. 
     The deep state is really masons operating through different elements of government and society to push their agenda - which is to destabilize America through chaos and discord in order to usher in their NWO. And the NWO is when Satan temporarily takes over EVERYTHING. It will be the worst time of chaos on Earth if allowed to happen. That's the end game. And that's what this is really all about.
     I personally believe George Floyd's death was supposed to be a catalyst to jump off nationwide chaos to bring this about. I believe they had plans to use Ahmaud Arbery's case before him; but since it happened right before COVID lockdown hit, it didn't get the attention they hoped it would to cause enough protests, riots and destruction.
     How many of you knew that George Floyd was a Mason? So was his father; so are his brothers. Also, many of the cities where these riots broke out are run by black Democrats. And most of them are masons too: Prince Hall masons: the black version of the white masonic order. 
     A lot of the black mayors and DA's, etc, are Eastern Stars: the female affiliation of the Prince Hall masons. Many of them are also BGLO's: Black Greek Letter Organization members, which I talked about at length in my ebook Hedonism. These are your black Greek fraternities and sororities that are directly interlinked with the masons. 
     It's no wonder that almost all of your so-called black leaders have sworn memberships in these organizations. Including Farrakhan. And its little wonder why so much of this police violence against black citizens take place in cities run by these masonic-connected affiliates. 
     We are being played. Well, not we, but many of YOU are. I stay in the loop because I'm a constant student. I don't assume that I already know everything, and it keeps me humble enough to learn. Which enables me to share to enlighten others. 
     Don't just blindly trust the narrative being shown. Know that there are agents among us. And they are sworn by oath to do the bidding of the organizations they serve before doing what's necessarily right by the people. And those organizations ultimately serve Satan.   
  
     I'm sure by now that your head is spinning. This is information that the average American is unaware of, and the average Christian has no idea of. But having spent a lot of time researching Freemasonry and its iniquity in generational lines, I know that Mr. Mack has hit a nerve. Did you know that the highest levels of North American Masons take oaths to Allah and Lucifer? That they are sworn to secrecy about their initiation rites and heap curses upon their families should they ever break the secret oaths? 
     Yet many will despise what Mack Major has revealed because their beloved father or grandfather was a Mason, and a deacon in the Church, so it is unimaginable that they could ever be a part of such an organization. But with Lucifer as their Lodge's spiritual guide, these men [and women] are offered wealth, power, and position -- the very temptations that Satan offered Jesus if He would simply bow down and worship and serve him. 
     Some people start out innocently enough, just looking for "brotherhood" and an opportunity to network to improve their business standing. But as they climb the ladder of degrees in the lodge, the evil intentions are revealed and the lust for power is often too much to ignore. So, I invite you to do your own research on this organization and how it has infested every vestige of our culture -- from entertainment to politics to business to, yes, even the Church. As hard as it is to wrap your head around Mr. Major's theory, I implore you to pray on it and ask the Lord if he speaks truth. Then you will know the way to pray... and our prayers need to be more powerful than the evil that is roaming the earth in these days.  
     And I want to take it one step further .... as Americans, we are appalled at the scenes of our historic monuments being defaced and torn down. But let me ask you to consider this... the Confederate generals and George Washington were Masons. Could it be that God is making a statement with the lightning hitting the Washington Monument and cleaning our land from its Masonic roots? Could it be that what Satan meant for evil [through the actions of men tearing down the statues], God is using for His good? Just a thought. There is so much happening in the spirit these days that we must be vigilant!

Psalm 26:4-5      I do not sit with men of falsehood, nor do I consort with hypocrites [who defraud with hidden motives]. I hate the assembly of evildoers, and I will not sit with the wicked.
