My post show you how in Christs own words he came for the Jews only and, being a Gentile I am a Noahide with reverance and respect for Jesus.

By Jews I mean the Israelites, those who followed the Laws of Moses.
And yes Jesus said a few times he came for the Jews, not the Gentiles.
It was Simon Peter and Saul of Tarsus (Paul) who opened it up to the Gentiles. If Jesus came for the Gentiles he would have said so in his many years of ministry. Even Paul said in one of his letters something to the effect of " dont concern yourself so much with the gentiles, they have the laws of Noah" Jesus said one thing while he was alive, his followers said something else after he was gone...who do you believe more ?

I just wanted to show that scripture is a two edged sword and open to interpretation. The problem with religion has always been that only THEIR interpretation is correct and any other is heresy. You just helped me prove my point. My interpretation is not false, it just doesnt agree with your narrow view.

Matthew 11:25-27
Rest for the Weary
25At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. 26Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure.
27"All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Then why did you care what I personally believed? not that mind telling you.
This is why I posted in this thread,because of ignorant finger pointing,where like here, your fingers are pointing at yourself.

When someone has the heart of a child towards God,you get your proof.
Scripture is important but not as important as this to have a start.Then this and other verses become clear as day.Not that I`m claiming any type of expertise in scripture,just the basic`s at what Christ said because of my experience with God.
Sweft

Setians, as you state, possibly could be Masons in theory, however, if they are indeed a more philisophical and semi religous offshoot of the LaVeyans, I don't see them and Masonry as compatible, and certainly see no reason why they would even want to join the Masons.

It's intersting how some of the massons here try to avoid answering a simple question.
Simply put, if a satanist would walk up in a lodge and he would say he is a satanist and would like to become a fellow masson would you guys accept him massonic light?
I've put this question since none of you managed to answer.
Since he represents a god for many what is stoping you on accepting the person in cause.

I've been reading this thread, intresting, would a satanist be able to become a felow mason?
The answer that i've seen here is, satanists are not really satanists.

Freemasons have no rule that specifies which religion is allowed and which is not. So theoretically if a man claimed to believe in god and presented himself as an upright citizen he could petition a lodge for membership. All he would need to do then is get 100% of the Christians, Catholics, Jews etc to vote for him.
