Freemasonry has been defined as "a system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols", founded in the purest principles of piety, virtue, brotherly love, relief and trust. It is viewed by man as a friendly society or fraternity for mutual help and relief in time of need ... a movement providing good fellowship, a sense of belonging, undertaking many charitable acts ... an exclusive club with some secret rituals. ANCIENT FREE AND ACCEPTED MASONS (their full name) is reputed to be one of the largest and oldest fraternal (brotherly) organisations in the world and Freemasons are found in almost every walk of life, including many religious denominations. Only atheists are precluded from joining. Many American Presidents and English Royalty have been Masons and thus helped to popularise the movement. Mr. W.L. Wilmshurst, Provincial Senior Grand Warden of W. Yorks, wrote in "The Masonic Initiation": "It is a well-known fact that commercial houses today find it is advantageous for business purposes to insist upon their more important employees being members of the Order". Who are they? And what do they believe? Freemasons: What Do They Believe? compares the teaching of this group with basic fundamental Biblical doctrine. This eBook is not designed to ridicule or scorn the teaching of those who differ in faith and doctrine, but to examine teaching that claims to either hold to orthodox Biblical Christian doctrine or claim that their movement accommodates Biblical Christianity. Available material was researched and leading people interviewed, where possible. The conclusions drawn in this ebook about Freemasons are based on information made available and every effort has been made to present the material as accurately as possible. The battle today is for the mind of men, women and children and we need, more than ever, to keep our attention focused on THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.. "Looking unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith" (Heb. 12:2).
