MORMONISM LUCIFER’S RELIGION Pastor David Warner Faithful Baptist Church Omak,Washington GENERAL: Theocracy - The original aim was to form this and control the entire U.S.. Now it is their underlying motive in their outreach. Mormons teach that their church is the established Kingdom of God on Earth. They swear to “avenge the blood of Joseph Smith on the United States”. They follow a clear dictatorial, hierarchial, theocracy. The only source for truth is what the current living Prophet states; whether or not it is Biblically sound or even Mormonally sound. Twice a year they state new revelations at the Tabernacle (Utah). All Mormons want to rule the world as gods. Shockingly, as we will find out, their true devotion is not to the God of the Bible, but to the god of Mormonism, Lucifer!!! Misrepresentation - Missionaries deny any differences in Jesus, God, and the gospel with Christianity vs. Mormonism. Inner secrets aren’t revealed until one is already sworn to secrecy by blood oaths. Mormonism was a deliberate scam for money, women, and power, but now has mushroomed into something terrible. Bad Habits - They may not smoke or drink but: they have four times the average rate in America for obesity; they take more drugs than nonMormons; they have a higher than average divorce rate; their child murder rate is five time higher; their female homicide rate is 21% higher; their rape rate is higher and has increased by 93% recently; 35% of their babies are born out of wedlock; and Salt Lake City is the number one city for Mortgage loan defaults. Non-Christian - They are a modified form of paganism that is hidden in Christian terminology. Paganism usually involves communication with spirits, a hierarchy of many gods, and the appeasement of those gods through occultic rituals. They are truly against Biblical Christianity. INTERNAL PROBLEMS: Suppression of their Early History - The leaders have reworked all their books to hide the confusion and man-made nature of their teachings. Every year changes are made…a “tune-up” of their current beliefs. Racial Godhead - Whites qualify for Mormon priesthood and then godhood; Blacks do not (based on a curse from Cain they say). Women - A woman can never become a god, only an eternal childbearer as one of the many wives of a “god-husband”. She has to rely on her husband to call her out of the grave at the resurrection…this he does only by choice. She must swear an oath of total obedience to her husband. They must bear as many children as possible. Fifty percent of the women must work also. All this leads to a high depression rate. 2 Personal Inner Turmoil - Frustration in becoming perfect is a major implication in Mormonism. Many want to get out of Mormonism, but can’t because of the consequences (damnation, possible loss of job, divorce, loss of children…). There usually is noone to confide in. All are warned to not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. GOD: Jesus was conceived by Elohim (Kolub) and Mary, and was the brother to Lucifer. Jesus was a man and had to become a god Himself through Temple rituals and keeping the Law. The Trinity are each separate gods. The Holy Ghost (originally rejected by Smith) is now said to be a “wonderful all present fluid”. SALVATION: Adam and Eve Statue This “Masonic” statue shows Adam and Eve putting what Cain put on the altar (salvation by works), and the Lamb is standing by the altar (but refused). Christ is Despised They deny Christ’s death as able to give eternal life to them that believe. They require their own blood for certain more grevious sins. Mormons take bread and “water” at communion, because wine = blood. They display no cross inside or outside their chapels. But they do display many Masonic and other occult symbols throughout their buildings. Faith and Grace Their faith is faith that blessings will follow obedience to their over 1000 laws. Grace is to those who keep all the commandments and prove themselves worthy. Everyone will be saved, however, but only the most pious will become gods. They do not believe in a literal Hell. GODHOOD: Rituals - Mormon “godhood” is only reached through secret Mormon Temple rituals. There is a constant battle to gain entrance into the Temple for these secret rituals. Entrance is based on how close to their teachings you believe and follow. Only 30% of Mormons qualify. There are over 1000 Mormon commandments to be followed. Worthiness is declared by the local Bishop and stake President. They decide if you are worthy to be in the Father’s presence or not. Once in the Temple one is at the point of no return and must take a “death” oath concerning divulging secrets. The underwear is put on (which protects you from “evil” Jehovah) and you are given a secret name. Then white robes and a hat are put on (almost identical with the dress of the satanic 3 “Macumba Cult” in Brazil). There are also secret passwords and handshakes to be learned. At last they enter through the magic masonic veil. This secrecy and initiation is classic occultism and paganism. These unitiated will swear up and down that their religion is “Christian”...the initiated know the shocking truth, though! Ultimately, a Mormon must sacrifice their life and be resurrected in order to obtain ‘godhood’; this, however, is not widely publicized… Eternal Marriage - To reach godhood one must be married to a Mormon female. It is referred to as a Celestial marriage, and continues forever and ever. They practice polygamy in order to be more fruitful in their eternal child bearing task. The Church promotes family but not if one is a “Christian”. Mormon bishops will advise divorce in this case. This gives way to a high divorce rate. Church Greater than Jesus - They say that in 1830 the Almighty God restored His church to earth again, which is the Mormon people. Joseph Smith holds the key to eternal destiny; not Jesus. Smith dictates who goes to heaven. Praise is given to Smith, not Jesus. The Brethren (top church hierarchy) demand total submission and blind obedience from their followers, and offer godhood in exchange. The Brethren are accountable to noone, and everyone is accountable to them. They are the “GodMakers”. THE BOOK OF MORMON: Obvious Errors - Smith said it was the ‘most’ correct book on earth (more than the Bible). 4000 changes had to be made since it was first published (changes from Smith’s “perfect” translation…not from printing errors). There were hundreds of obvious contradictions, absurdities, and childish grammatical errors. The book taught that the Trinity was foolish…but elsewhere in it it states there is a Trinity. There were countless verbal plurality disagreements, slang, and spelling errors. There were clear passages plagarized out of several books of that day, including several chapters of the Bible. Smith said that the translation was made so carefully that there was no room for error (??). The characters in it were purely ficticious. Smith said that the plates were “written down in his mind” to preserve them. Smith had access to the Bible also, of course. The Book of Mormon contains very little concerning Mormon theology and practice. The language of the book of Mormon is that of the King James era and it even contains chapter and verse divisions (circa 1300’s); but the Book of Mormon was said to have been written originally in 500-600 B.C.. Lying Fake Witness - Out of the eleven witnesses who allegedly saw the plates, only three (all Smiths) remained in Mormonism. Smith called 4 the eight “defective liars and cheats”. These seem to be strange choices to view the plates being that each one is so evil. The other type of lying fake witness is the “burning in the bosom” that is said to be the secret at determining if something is true or not. This probably is a demonic phenomena. Other Fake Plates - The “Kinder Book” plates were found and resembled the original gold plates, Smith said. Later, the scientific world analyzed them and found them to be clearly forgeries. Smith said they were translated partially by him and were indeed true. Smith tried to decieve people with these and the gold plates. Similar Cults - At Mormonism’s beginnings there were other strangely similar religious groups that began. J.S. Strang, a Smith follower, found some “plates” and started his own sect differing much from Smith’s. The “Shakers” started at this time also and had 60 witnesses to a sacred “Roll and Book”. MYTHS AND DANGERS: Dangerous Myths - They state that Mormons are the Jews; the actual Jews and the non-Mormons are Gentiles. They say that in 1830 the Almighty God restored His church to earth again, which is the Mormon people. Smith says the Moon is inhabited by people; he was visited by god-men from a star called Kolob; the Gold Plates are seen with faith not eyes; the Garden of Eden is located in Missouri and that Jesus will return to Missouri vs. outside of Jerusalem. Brigham Young is part of Smith’s lineage, which is necessary in order for him to be a true Prophet (however, it is proven that he is not of this lineage). Brigham Young declared “If you will believe in your heart that Jesus is the Christ, that Joseph Smith was a Prophet, and that Brigham Young is his successor, you shall be saved”. And he said that “every spirit that confesses that Joseph is a prophet and that the Book of Mormon is true, is of God and every other is of anti-Christ. Archeology Myths - archeologists agree that not one shred of evidence has been found to support the Book of Mormon. Noone can find the location of even one Book of Mormon city or geographical site, including the famous Hill of Cumorah where the Gold Plates are suppose to be. Godhood in Embryo - We are here to prove ourselves worthy of godhood. We were spirits (gods) waiting for our human bodies. We pre-existed as these spirits…and full godhood is when we are united with our bodies. However, we don’t remember our pre-existance…why? They even agree to being pagan rivals of Christianity. 5 Hinduistic Ties - They teach godhood potential, pre-existance, selfrealization techniques, and that nature is alive and intelligent. LUCIFERIC PRACTICES: Redeeming the Dead - Temples are the link between man and godhood. The Temples are used mainly for the redeeming of the dead. The dead can still communicate with the living and will eventually go to heaven (Satan told Eve she wouldn’t really die). They say that God’s number one commandment is to seek after those that are already dead. These spirits often declare that “the Mormon church is the only true church”. These dead are represented in their teachings as Light; Moroni is the “Angel of Light”! They use these encounters as proof that Mormonism is the only true religion. Many Mormon presidents have been in contact with many of these spirits, and are very proud of it. They practice genealogy keeping (this is warned against in the Bible). They practice “Baptism for the dead” (warned of by Paul in 1Co 15). The wicked dead go to hell for a time of purification, not punishment, and then go to Heaven. This is the “spirit prison” (if it is a prison, how can they communicate with the living and be present in the Mormon Temple as Mormonism teaches?). Occultic Practicing - Ouija Board, crystal ball, pendelum, and the dowsing rod were used by early Mormon apostles. The “Phillip Group” held a séance and experienced a “poltergiest” in the early Mormon church. Smith used a “seer” stone to divine, a jupiter talisman for ritual magic, and later introduced magic underwear with occultic inscriptions (these are commonly worn all day by devout Mormons). There have been countless strange visions, spirits heard, tongue speaking, unnatural voice utterings, distorting of bodies, UFO siteings, and many other evil manifestations in the early Mormon church. Smith’s Occultism - He used his “seer stone” as a divination device. He was very heavily involved in the occult. His talisman that he always wore and seered through was covered with inscriptions of deities and astrologies. From early childhood he and his family dabbled in divination, necromancy, and various forms of ritual magic. Satanic Signs - They believe that the lie to Eve was the truth...we can indeed become gods. The power to priests thru their apron comes from Lucifer. The “Quetzalcoatl” as a serpant deity = Jesus. The Serpant is regarded as the “Holy Wisdom”. The Snake of Shira (Satan) is used in their Temples. Lucifers Religion - “Mormo” in the Satanic Bible is listed as meaning “god of the ghouls” (those obsessed with the dead). In Chinese, “Mormon” means “gates of hell”. Mormons say they worship the “god 6 of this world” because of their belief in there being gods of other worlds. Lucifer is taught to be a son of God and brother of Jesus. In a main temple ritual of “Garden of Eden”, they place an apron on denoting “Satan’s power and priesthoods”. They wear this often and wear it at marriage and at burial. Smith teaches that hell is agreeable while heaven is a place of everlasting burnings. Mormonism is neither based on the Bible nor the Book of Mormon . This is because the heart of their doctrine is that there is no real Hell; death is not final; and the dead can repent and be baptised into the Mormon spiritual church. The Mormon God is Lucifer and the heaven they talk about is Hell! MASONRY & ANCIENT RELIGIONS RESTORED: Uses Masonic Terminology In a 1974 speech, Dr. Reed Durham (the outgoing president) first announced Mormonism’s close ties with Masonry. The Mormon Temple ceremonies resemble Masonry with their secret names, penalties, blood oaths, grips, tokens, square, compass, beehive, astrological symbols, allseeing eye of occultism, and the upside-down 5 point star of Satanism. The resemblance continues in their conferences, councils, priesthood, temples, annointing with oil, the issuance of liscences, certificates of recognition, elders, high priests, Book of the Law, Egyptian items, new revelations of the suns and moons, the political kingdom of God, the council of the 50, the living constitution, and the coronation of the king. It is obvious that there was an intentional intent by Smith to utilize Masonry in forming Mormonism. The Masonic Legend of Enoch = J. Smith Smith’s Jupiter talisman that he wore was referred to as his “masonic jewel”. The Legend of Enoch in Masonry is extemely similar to Mormonism: Enoch and Smith were both 25 years old when they got visions; both had plates that were buried in a vault in a hill, and were of gold and brass with Egyptian hyroglyphics about God on them; both uncovered a metal ball, priestly breastplate, and Urim and Thummim; both called out a “masonic” distress call just prior to death (Smith in his jail cell). The legend of Enoch was in print by the Masons in 1802, 30 years before Smith’s great disclosure on Mormonism. Smith apparently wanted to be the legend’s Enoch, who was suppose to be the final recipient of the “secret doctrine” and the “secret name of God”. Offshoot of Masonry In 1832 Smith opened up to receive new brethren who were all deeply involved with masonry; Phelps, B.Young, Kimball, and Whitney. Smith 7 was awarded the “master mason” degree in 1842. Smith met in a Masonic Lodge in Navoo, Ill. Smith wanted to restore “true Christianity” to the world. Masonry claims to be the “true” religion. The first Masonic legislator was “Bhudda”, then “Confucius”, Jesus, Mohammed, etc.. Smith tried to take over Masonry but was kicked out of the brotherhood. Masonry is Satanic! Albert Pike (Grand-Mason) states that the “Masonic Religion should be maintained to the purity of the Luciferian Doctrine.” “Yes, Lucifer is God, and, unfortunately, Jehovah is also god...for the absolute can only exist as two gods....the true and pure philosophical religion is the belief in Lucifer, the equal of Jehovah, God of Light and Good; he is struggling for humanity against Jehovah, the God of Darkness and Evil.” Mormonism=Masonry=Satanism Mormonism began as an offshoot of Masonry, holding to almost every major doctrine and practice of it. Masonry holds tightly, as its greatest “grand commander” previously stated, to the Luciferian doctrine. Mormonism is only a “Christianized” version of ancient Masonic teachings of Luciferian doctrine...that is, that Satan is the God of Good, and Jehovah the God of Evil. 8
