I am glad to hear that Jesus is your Lord my friend, but when addressing this the words of Joseph keep ringing loud "what you meant for evil God ment for good".
In reality who knows what is good and what is evil. It takes a Devine heart and mind to determine that when it comes to works. I have no problem with anyone giving good efforts to help humanity but the caution comes when we think we are doing or helping the cause of God. Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, giving to the poor all good things and we are asked to do but not without Devine prompting (holy spirit). Case in point even Jesus when called good master rebuked the comment saying God is the only good one.

The problem is this: they believe in not having any ONE religion or any ONE way to God. Therefore, in order to be one, you can not mention Jesus, and certainly not that He is the ONLY way to God and salvation. If you believe that Jesus is the only way, and that the bible is His word, then you have to keep that to yourself and basically deny those teachings--how any good Christian can do that in good conscience is beyond me.
Are fraternities, sororities, freemasonry, and eastern stars the sin of idolatry?

Oaths
33 “Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ 34 But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35 or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil.[a]
But most of all, my brothers and sisters, never take an oath, by heaven or earth or anything else. Just say a simple yes or no, so that you will not sin and be condemned. James 5:12 NLT

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Mathew chapter 7 (KJV)

A Christian who believes they are in the light of Christ can never become a mason... Part of the very first initiation ceremony a mason needs to take part in requiters them to state they are ""in darkness and are seeking the light of masonry"" If a Christian does this then they are declaring that the Light of Christ is Darkness... Woe to anyone who curses themselves by doing this evil thing.. Never join masonry..
