And what about Satan?
In all 45 books (OT) Satan appears 3x - in the Book of Job. And that Satan is God adversary...his job was to test people and accused them to God for their failures. Just doing God's will.
In OT - Satan - not once is defined as “rebel angel“ or “Devil“...it is just Persian dualism here....religion based on FEAR and nothing more! (( anyway , all this monotheistic religions are but plagiarism of plagiarism of plagiarism ))

Hmm... I can just see it now, everyone is standing around waiting in Heaven and then God comes out and says "look, he has deceived you all but he is forgiven because he died and suffered greatly. He also died for your sins and well, actually his own too. It was the only way he could overcome".
He made everyone sin to start with so then had to redeem everyone. The only way to fix that kind of karma was to be cruxified for everyone. Kill everyone and then save everyone.
Now that this cycle is over, I am going to destroy him because he has a new body in Christ.

In every power structure, the ones at the top control the level below them and so on. So the people at the bottom take their orders from a level above them etc. This enables a few people to manage a large company or organization. The ones at the bottom may have little contact with they guys at the top but they have constant contact with the level of management just above them. There could be no way to hide the fact that the guys on the bottom were being managed in some way. Sooner or later you have to tell them what to do. They need to know who their superiors are in order to know who's orders to follow.
As a mason, there is nobody telling me what to do in life. I follow the ancient traditions that have changes little over the centuries but there is no power structure above me that I receive orders from. Each lodge is managed on a rotating leadership, each year the officers rotate positions and the guy at the top rotates out of the line so he is no longer and officer. The guy who becomes the new master of the lodge is elected by vote.
So if there were "high up masons" how would they control the masons below them who don't believe they exist? I don't think they could finance a war with my $35 yearly dues.
If any of you can find one of these elusive "Hight Up Masons", let us all know.

That is a one liner and there is no need to quote my entire post!
Your one liner is vague. Care to expand???
Hmm just from your one line response, I figure you disagree with what I have contributed? And the 'you need help' is your way of saying that?
Strange way of putting your point across!
what help do you suggest?

In summary,
Get a clue or stop lying.

Right, just because you say so...because you say it is a lie. Hmmm I wonder what the deception in Revelation means? Ever thought about it?
oooo better not blaspheme... The almighty one might smite me!!

I'll make a prediction though Colleneh7. You won't be here long. Too bad you cannot discuss your differences of opinion without insulting others...heck, you might actually LEARN something here.
I always find it fascinating (in a pathetic sort of way) that so many of the "all-knowing, all-wise" fundamentalists hate-spreaders who come to this board to post their "effulgence" on issues upon which they are at odds with others cannot seem to do so without stooping to ad hominem attacks and insults.

Is this your vote to ban me for disagreeing with you?
And you are exalted above ad hom, huh? Let's see what you say next. Could it be ad hom?
Appak wants me gone because he cannot debate what I am saying. Appak knows I am right and is fearful that others will catch on. This does not fit into Appak's dogma.

If not, you know virtually nothing about it, except what others have told you.
Who's the expert here, YOU or the Freemasons?
I can shoot down ANYTHING you have to say on the subject. And I'll do so with fact and without calling anyone "Gomer" I assume you meant "Gomer Pyle" and not "Gomer, the eldest son of Japheth"

I take what freemasons have to say on the subject as reliable. They do occassionally tell the truth. Surely, you Appak, in the year and a half that you have been here at this forum have been told about this.
I know that the function of contrarian trolls is to contradict everything someone says, no matter how ridiculous the contrarian may be.

Are you the one that called Jesus satan? I would suggest that you do not do that. That is uber speculation and blasphemas to boot. It fits right in with occultism, though. Hello FREEMASONS! Either occultists don't know what the heck they are doing, or they know exactly what they are doing and lie about it.
