Are Christians and masons enemies?

Catholics I know have pointed to the fact that Masons are a secret society and shied away from them. Baptists and Protestants have joined the Masons, even preachers I have known. In the late seventies, Moody Monthly listed Masons and Eastern Star as cults. While Masons read the Bible, it seems to be more of a ritual or a "work." Some of the secret practices of freemasonery seem to be rather silly to Christians or even "dark" practices that do not honor God. There is evidence that Joseph Smith was a mason and that Mormon practices include those very similar to freemasonery. If nothing else, the Mormon Temple practices are secret, like those of the secret society called The Masons.

Are the masons a cult?

No, for the simple reason that Freemasonry does not have a central charismatic figure that Masons obey or exalt; nor does it require that Masons put Freemasonry before their job, family or God. In fact, they encourage the opposite. The Freemasons are no more a cult than the Baptist or Catholic church.


What was the job of a mason?

Masons construct buildings from "masonry." There are three kinds--brick masons work in brick, block masons in block and stone masons in stone. Laying brick is very similar to laying block, but it's different enough that a lot of masons will lay either brick or block, but not both. Most masons are men, but women are entering the field. Some of the skills a mason needs: blueprint reading estimating the number of "masonry units" and quantity of mortar needed for the job laying out corners and walls mixing mortar driving forklifts, telehandlers and trucks building walls from masonry cleaning up the worksite safety There are three ways a mason can learn his or her trade. Many masons are "second generation" masons--their fathers or other relatives were masons and trained them. Masons' unions have apprenticeship programs, in which you work under the supervision of master masons. Also,bang a boo community colleges have programs in masonry. If you like to work outside and enjoy hard, heavy work, masonry is a fulfilling occupation.
