Here are 15 points where Freemasonry is considered to conflict with Christian beliefs:

  1. Denial of God's Uniqueness: Freemasonry equates the God of the Bible with gods of other religions, denying the uniqueness of the Christian God134.

  2. Denial of Christ's Uniqueness: It views Jesus as one among many messianic figures, equating Him with figures like Buddha or Muhammad13.

  3. Salvation by Works: Freemasonry teaches that salvation is achieved through good works and self-effort, contrary to Christianity's emphasis on salvation by faith in Christ alone1347.

  4. Inclusivism: Freemasonry promotes the idea that all religions are equally valid paths to God, rejecting Christianity's exclusivity through Christ45.

  5. Deistic Tendencies: Freemasonry often aligns with deism, portraying God as a distant creator rather than an active, personal being, which contradicts Christian theology5.

  6. Relativism in Truth: It denies absolute truth and promotes the idea that all religious beliefs are equally valid47.

  7. Use of Blasphemous Titles: Terms like "Worshipful Master" and references to secret names for God are considered offensive and sacrilegious by Christians4.

  8. Rejection of Core Doctrines: Freemasonry disregards essential Christian doctrines such as the Trinity, the Incarnation, and the Atonement24.

  9. Secret Oaths: Masonic rituals involve taking oaths that some Christians believe violate biblical teachings (e.g., Matthew 5:34-37)14.

  10. Misuse of Scripture: While Freemasonry includes the Bible in its lodges, it places it on equal footing with other religious texts, undermining its authority4.

  11. Symbolism Misinterpretation: The Masonic concept of "light" refers to moral reformation rather than spiritual salvation through Christ4.

  12. Naturalism Over Revelation: Freemasonry emphasizes human reason over divine revelation as the ultimate guide to truth25.

  13. Denial of Original Sin: It does not acknowledge humanity's fallen nature or the need for redemption through Christ2.

  14. Universal Brotherhood Without Christ: Freemasonry promotes a universal brotherhood that excludes the necessity of faith in Jesus for unity34.

  15. Initial Denial as a Religion: While claiming not to be a religion, Freemasonry incorporates religious elements and teachings, creating confusion for Christians who view it as a competing belief system13.
