Mystery Religion: The Mystery Religion and the Dragon / Serpent (Part 2 of 2)
(Click to see Part 1 of 2.)
To recap, we have talked about Nimrod and how he was killed and how Semiramis, his wife / mother, had a son (Tammuz) who was worshiped as the reincarnation of Nimrod. This pagan trinity of father, mother, and son was worshiped in ancient Babylon and throughout the world.
When Shem (who Egyptians made into an evil god Set or Seth)
killed the wicked Nimrod (Osiris), the pagan priests of the idolatrous system
had to conceal their secrets from the regular people. The regular people (or
“the profane”) would not be allowed to know the truth that Tammuz was not Nimrod reincarnated and that the devil was the one the high-ranking
priests of Baal actually worshiped. Yes, it is true: the high-priests of
mystery religion worship Lucifer (or Satan). They secretly believe Lucifer is
the “Architect of the Universe” or the creator. How can this be?
(Albert Pike) |
“But, by whatever name it was known
in this or the other country, Masonry existed as it now exists, the same in
spirit and at heart . . . before even the first colonies emigrated into
Southern India, Persia, and Egypt, from the cradle of the human race.” (Albert
Pike. Morals and Dogma, pg. 207-208).
The cradle of the human race was Babylon in the land of
Mesopotamia. That is where Pike said
that Freemasonry was started (in one form or another). This mystery religion that Freemasonry came from, like masons do today, kept secrets from the average
person, saving that information for the “favored few”. Pike said:
“But their doctrines on this
subject were esoteric; they did not communicate them to the people at large,
but only to a favored few; and as they were communicated in Egypt and India, in
Persia and Phoenicia, in Greece and Samo-thrace, in the greater mysteries, to
the initiates.” (Albert Pike. Morals and Dogma, pg. 207)
To Albert Pike, only the high-level priests (or initiates) of
the mysteries could know the secrets of “the true nature...of God” (ibid, pg.
207).
What is this “God” Pike speaks of? Pike tells us more about
him here:
"The Masonic religion should
be, by all of us initiates of the high degrees, maintained in the purity of the
Luciferian doctrine. […] Yes, Lucifer is God, and unfortunately Adonay [God the Creator] is also God. […] [The] pure
philosophic religion is the belief in Lucifer, the equal of Adonay [God the
Creator]; but Lucifer, God of Light and God of Good, is struggling for humanity
against Adonay, the God of darkness and evil." Albert Pike (quoted by A.C.
De La Rive in La Femme et l'enfant dans la Franc-Maconnerie Universelle, p.
588; Lady Queenborough, Occult Theocracy pp. 220-221.)
According to Albert Pike, a 33rd degree mason, the
“God” of the high-level Freemasons is Lucifer (who the Bible also calls Satan,
the deceiver). This fallen angel (Lucifer / Satan / the Serpent) is also the
same one that high-ranking priests of Babylon secretly worshiped.
(Click to enlarge. The sun-god (Baal, Tammuz, Ra / Horus) was worshiped in ancient times. He was sometimes depicted with one eye.) |
In ancient times, the serpent was understood to be a type of
dragon (#5).
A serpent forming a circle by eating its tail (called an ouroboros) was used in ancient Egypt to represent their sun-god (#8). And, Revelation 12:13-14 identifies the same dragon as a serpent. As a roaring lion, Satan (the serpent dragon) is seeking to devour us (see 1 Peter 5:8). Jesus Christ said that Satan is a liar and a deceiver in John 8:44.

John 8:44
44 Ye are of your father the devil,
and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning,
and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh
a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
The true God
does not hide His true identity from the common people like the false
god (Lucifer) of the mystery religions does. God reveals Himself
through His word. Unlike the mystery religions (and the Freemasons), God does not have degrees or various
levels a person has to work through to reach a high rank or high degree (like a
33rd degree mason). This is against God’s Word.
God desires
to have an intimate (close) relationship with those He created.
God wants you to get to know Him personally. You don’t need a
man who calls himself a priest. You don’t need to go to a secret order or a
secret society. You don’t need to be initiated into a mystery religion.
So, how can you get to know God personally? Sin keeps us from
getting to know God personally and sin will bring us down to Hell if we don’t have
it cleansed away. How can sin be cleansed away? It can’t be done by works.
Isaiah 64:6 says (bold added), "But we are all as an
unclean thing, and all our
righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our
iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away."
Works
cannot save us. But Jesus Christ, God’s Only Begotten Son, died in
our place to pay for all our sins, IF WE BELIEVE ON HIM. This means we must
take a step of faith and make Jesus Christ our own personal Savior and Lord and
believe the truth about Him found in the Bible.
Do you want to take that step of faith and be freed from sin
so you can enjoy a good relationship with God, and be saved from eternal
damnation?
Romans 3:23 says, “For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;”
Romans 6:23 says,
"For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord."
If You Would Like to Have a Relationship with the true God, Be an Adopted
Child of God, and Go to Heaven…
God loves us so much that He sent His Only Begotten Son,
Jesus Christ, to die for our sins and shed His precious blood to pay for all of
these sins (John 3:16 and 1 Corinthians. 15:3-4). And He rose from the grave on
the third day (1 Cor. 15:4).
The Bible says this about Jesus and Salvation:
John 14:6
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life:
no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
1 Timothy 2:5
“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men,
the man Christ Jesus;”
Acts 4:12
“Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none
other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.”
HOW TO GET SAVED and KNOW GOD:
1. If you believe and confess aloud, genuinely from your
heart, that Jesus Christ has paid for all your sins with His precious blood and
has risen from the dead (…knowing that you cannot earn this free gift of
salvation) (Romans 10:9-10; 1 Corinthians 15:3-5; and Colossians 1:14);
2. And if you repent from your sins (You do this by
confessing only to God Himself that you are a sinner and that you want to turn
away from sin.) (Romans 3:23; Acts 3:19; and 1 John 1:8-9);
3. And if you have made Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior,
you are saved (Jesus cannot be your Lord if you are serving yourself and living
selfishly. If He is not your Lord, you would have another master. Jesus said in
Luke 16:13: “No servant can serve two masters…”) (Romans 10:9-10 and Luke
16:13).
4. Now seek God with all your heart. Seek to know Him and you
will (Jeremiah 29:13).
We need to emphasize this: God does not want us following a
strict system of rules in order to please Him. God loves us and is about having
a good personal relationship with each one of us as we seek Him and obey Him.
God loves you and wants you to get to know Him personally.
John 17:3 says: "And this is life eternal, that they
might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent."
