The Mysteries Of Mormonism

Mormonism Exposed some More

The following will prove that Mormonism is not real Christianity at all. Books that Mormons utilize are the Book of Mormon, The Pearl of Great Price, and Doctrine and Covenants. Many apostate Christians and even pro-establishment Evangelicals have supported the false Christian organization of Mormonism. Mormonism wasn't created by Jesus Christ at all. It was created by Joseph Smith. Mormonism was created in New York State (at April 6, 1830) by 3° Mason Joseph Smith (that's why the 1st degree in Masonry is similar to the 1st Token of the Aaron Priesthood of Mormons). His father, Joseph Smith, Sr., was a documented member of Freemasonry in upstate

New York. Joseph Smith Sr. was raised to the degree of Master Mason on May 7, 1818 in Ontario Lodge No. 23 of Canandaigua, New York. Official LDS church history informs us that Joseph Smith was made a Master Mason on Wednesday, March 16, 1842. Smith was apart of the Nauvoo Lodge. He believed that the angel Moroni sent him gold plates about the truth of God. Joseph Smith claimed to found golden plates in Palmyra, New York at age 14. These plates aren't found today in a Temple or any museum. Joseph Smith claimed that the angel took it after Smith created the Book of Mormon. Smith believed that 2 magic stones called Urim and Thummim contained the Book of Mormon. This is the reason why some critics of

Joseph Smith accuse him of acting like a magician. A witness said that Smith would put a stone in his hate and then the translation of the plates would appear on the stone. Smith’s wife was named Emma. Emma said that: “…In writing for your father, I frequently wrote day

after day, often sitting at the table close to him, he sitting with his face buried in his hat, with the stone in it, and dictating [the Book of Mormon] hour after hour with nothing between us...”(as quoted in Creation of the Book of Mormon, by LaMar Peterson, p.25). It’s no secret that Smith’s family was involved in the occult. LaMar Peterson's new book entitled, “The Creation of the Book of Mormon” wrote that the Smith family was involved in magical abracadabra and other aspects of folk magic. In 1826, Joseph Smith was charged with being a disorderly person and imposture since he promoted a seer stone. So, the deal is that Smith used magic as a ploy to deceive people before Mormonism was invented. His critics say that the Book of Mormon is based on an imaginative tale written in Biblical style by a former Presbyterian minister, Samuel Spaulding, but never published. The manuscript was delivered to Smith by Sidney Rigdon, who helped revise it. Shortly afterwards Rigdon became one of the presidents of the church. He moved into the Midwest with allies like Hyrum Smith. Freemason Heber C. Kimball was a member of the First Quorum of

the Twelve under Joseph Smith & a counsellor to Brigham Young during his presidency. Even Freemason John Taylor succeeded Brigham Young to the Presidency of the LDS Church. He was an apostle under Joseph Smith. The first President of the LDS Church was Freemason Lorenzo Smith. Lorenzo Smith was another apostle of Joseph Smith. Freemason Orin Porter Rockwell (from the Nauvoo Lodge. He was initiated at 3/9/1844) was a close friend and bodyguard of Joseph Smith. Rockwell was a member of the Danites in Missouri and he was accused of the attempted assassination of Lilburn W. Boggs (which was the Governor of Missouri). Joseph Smith was murdered for his teaching in support of polygamy. This occurred in June 24, 1844. After this incident, 2 factions occurred. One of Smith’s wife (and the wife’s son) formed the RLDS or the Reorganized LDS Church. Another faction (which was lead by Brigham Young) went into Utah. Young had multiple wives.

Brigham Young was a leader in Utah and a rumored Freemason. His ally was Jesuit DeSmet. Now, Focus on the Family’s Citizen Link publication outline the religious testimony of Glen Beck. This month's online edition describe it. They problem is that Glen Beck is a Mormon of the Latter Day Saints groups. Mormonism teaches many false doctrines. These doctrines include that it views that Jesus and Lucifer are spirit brothers. They teach that men and women can be his own god and have children in other planets. President Lorenzo Snow said, "As god once was, man is. As God is, man may become." The Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, 1973 ed.,from p. 346 - said that: "God himself was once as we are now, and is an exalted man...I say, if you were to see him today, you would see him like a man in a form-like yourselves in all the person, image, and very form as a man." The Book of Mormon's Doctrine and Covenants 130:22 has the quote of "The Father has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man's; the Son also." People pay a 10 percent tithe to the Mormon church, be considered worthy, be a good Mormon, and follow the laws of the church to reach godhood status. This is crazy of course. This view of possible godhood among human beings is a key New Age concept. Mormonism believes that God used to be a man on another world. He became a god by following the laws of his home world. Later, his wife was married to him. They view God as creating spirit children. The first born in Mormonism was Jesus then Lucifer. In other words, Mormonism teach that Jesus and Lucifer are brothers. According to Albert Pike, Lucifer is the

equal of Adonay, the God of the Bible. I of course don’t agree with Mormonism and Albert Pike at all on this issue. The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh (as found in John 1:1,14), he is the Creator of the Universe (Col. 1:16, 17), and he was uncreated (Colossians 1:15). The Mormon lie of human godhood is the same lie that Satan told Adam and Eve. Mormonism teaches polytheism when the Bible says that there is only one God and there is none beside him (Isaiah 43:10; 44:6,8). Fritz Springmeier wrote in his "Be Wise as Serpents" book that some Mormons fought for Hitler in Nazi

Germany. Obviously, the vast majority of Mormons would reject Hitler and the Nazis during WWII. In Mormonism, Lucifer rebelled because he was jealous of Jesus. Brigham Young taught that God the Father had sexual relations with Mary to produce Jesus Christ in the flesh. This is blasphemy of course. Mormonism falsely claims that Jesus got married and had children (including that he was a polygamist). Mormonism believe that the atonement of Christ began in the Garden of Gethsemane

before he went to the cross. The truth is that the Scriptures are clear that Jesus Christ paid for all of the sins of the world only at the cross. Other strange rituals exist in Mormonism. They include baptism for the dead, celestial marriage, and various oaths of secrecy and commitment. There are celestial rituals for be permitted into the highest level of Heaven including handshakes. Ironically, the word Mormo (which is similar to the word Mormon) in Chinese means the Gates of Hell. Smith called himself "Enoch" and he classified his group as "the Order of Enoch." One other major goal of Mormonism is to make America "Zion" on Earth. In other words, they want to make America the New Jerusalem. This is a blatant threat to society since Mormonism advocates a man-made theocracy on Earth. The LDS Church profoundly believes the U.S. Constitution is an anointed and inspired document much like their Book of Mormon and Bible. The LDS believe in a prophecy given by Prophet Brigham Young, which involves the American Constitution and ruling America. This leader will become both President of the United States and Mormon Prophet at the same time. "Thus, he would wield both supreme political power of the most powerful nation on earth and also be the 'Prophet, Seer and Revelator' of the LDS Church," claims Schnoebelen. This leader will rule as an amiable dictator under the aegis of Jesus Christ, according to Mormon beliefs. The Mormon faith is one of the ultimate deceptions due to their ability to put up a facade and contend that they are Christians. In fact, The Council of Fifty (also known as the Living Constitution, the Kingdom of God, or its name by revelation, The Kingdom of God and His Laws with the Keys and Power thereof, and Judgment in the Hands of His Servants, Ahman Christ was a Latter Day Saint organization established by Joseph Smith, Jr. in 1844 to symbolize and represent a future theocratic or theodemocratic "Kingdom of God" on the earth. Smith and his successor Brigham Young hoped to create this Kingdom in preparation for the Millennium and the Second Coming of Jesus. Here’s more information on Joseph Smith’s planned theocracy:

“…For Joseph Smith the dream indeed was certain, and the interpretation sure: the mountain was the Mormon Kingdom of God, Joseph the prophetic stone, and the great image to be broken was the United States of America, to be followed in time by all the sinful kingdoms of the world, that is to say, every government everywhere. This is not the current, official Mormon interpretation, but we approach the central paradoxes of the Mormon people. In the judgments of President Reagan and of President Bush, of the FBI and the CIA (both replete with Mormons), of our armed forces (with many Mormon high officers), there are no more patriotic Americans than the people called Mormons. Pragmatically, this is beyond reasonable dispute, even as no American grouping is currently more dedicated to monogamy, or more strenuously insists upon itself as being Christian. Yet the Mormons, if they are at all faithful to the most crucial teachings of Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, no more believe in American democracy than they do in historical Christianity or in Western monogamy. Smith, Young, and their followers believed in theocracy, or the inspired rule of the Saints, and they looked forward to each prophet in turn ruling over the Kingdom of God, as king, first here and then everywhere….And even as they continue to work towards what they call the Kingdom of God, they have not denied and indeed cannot deny the vision of a plurality of gods ...Only the question of the Kingdom seems to me a potential vexation for most Americans, and even that will not be an overwhelming problem for perhaps another third of a century or so. Yet the problem will come, and it will be very real. On that basis, I will devote the remainder of this chapter to the Mormon vision of the Kingdom of God…” (The American Religion, Harold Bloom, 1992, pgs. 90-91) "They believe that sometime in America's history, the Constitution will hang by a thread and the elders of Israel (which means Mormon elders because they believe they are Israel) will come in and save the Constitution," Schnoebelen said. This controversial prophecy is known as the 'white horse prophecy' or the 'One mighty and strong.' The RCLDS is an offshoot of Mormons that rejects the LDS. Today Mitt Romney is a Mormon who ran for President. His great grandfather was Gaskell Romney (whose wife was Anna Amela Pratt). Mormonism is not real Christianity. The reason is that it denies that there is only one God, it add works unto salvation, it denies that Jesus is the creator, it distorts the atonement, and it tries to undermine the authority of the Holy Bible. Some Temple rituals in Mormonism are secret, yet Jesus Christ said I have said nothing in secret as found in John 18:20.The Ex-Veil worker named Chuck Sackett recorded the secret ceremony. His work entitled, “What’s Going on In There?” from 1982 recorded his findings. Dr. Reed Durham (who was the President of the Mormon History Association) admitted that the secret Mormon Endowment ceremony was inspired by Freemasonry. That is why critics of Mormonism found that death oaths were in Mormonism (that swear to be killed or have their throat slit, tongues cut out, etc. if they violate the oath). This is Masonic to the core since Blue Degree members swear death oaths in Freemasonry. The Endowment ceremony have a person being washed and anointed by Temple patrons. They wear magic underwear in the ritual. According to Ed Decker, a new name is given to a Mormon after this ceremony. Masonic grips and the Five Points of Fellowship used to

pass one's heavenly name at the veil from Freemasonry exist in Mormonism. A lot of Mormons in the 1840’s once were in Freemasonry. In the Encyclopedia of Mormonism we read: "The introduction of Freemasonry in NAUVOO had both political and religious implications....Eventually nearly 1,500 LDS men became associated with Illinois Freemasonry, including many members of the Church's governing priesthood bodies—this at a time when the total number of non-LDS Masons in Illinois lodges barely reached 150." (Encyclopedia of Mormonism, vol.2, p.527)

The following quotes sums it all: "There is absolutely no question in my mind that the Mormon ceremony which came to be known as the Endowment, introduced by Joseph Smith to Mormon Masons, had an immediate inspiration from Masonry." — Dr. Reed Durham, LDS Historian For years, researchers have discovered Gnostic and even Kabbala connections to the religion of Mormonism. Lance S. Owens (who is not a Bible Believing Christian) wrote articles on this subject. "The Mormon History Association recognized Joseph Smith and Kabala: The Occult

Connection" is one article Owens wrote. It received its annual award for best article in 1995 among Mormon studies, so this isn't biased at all. Lance's writing openly reveal how occultism is connection to the Mormon religion. The Kabbalah is a form of mysticism that combines apostate Jewish tradition with the Mystery schools of Babylon (and Egypt). The word kabbalah means tradition. The modern form of the Kabala existed in the late Middle Ages. Solomon ibn Gabirol and Spanish Kabbalist Bahya ben Asher are said to be early Kabbala innovators. Its works include the Zohar and other literature. The Zohar is the main kabalistic text. In the Kabbala, they claim that the Torah is similar to a secret code with hidden messages from God. They view every Hebrew letter as having spiritual significance. In the Kabbala, there is a mystical interpretation of the Torah and the Old Testament. This code includes Gematria or the Hebrew alphabet with numerical values. Kabbalists view God as neither spirit nor matter (but God created both. The Bible says that God is Spirit and those that worship him must do so in Spirit and in Truth). They believe that aspects of God (not the true infinite God himself) created the Universe. One aspect of God is called Ein Sof (or the endless). The Kabbalistic tree of life has the ten Sefirot or the emanations of God that are involved in supposedly creating the Universe. These 10 entities are referred to as "gods" that reveals God's will. Their names are Keter (meaning will and crown), chochmah (or wisdom), Binah (or understanding), chesed (or loving kindness), Tiferet (or harmony), Netzach (or victory), Hod (glory), Geburah (meaning Power), Yesod (or foundation), and Malchut (or sovereignty or Kingdom). This tree has 22 paths in the 10 emanations. 22 is the number of letters in the Hebrew alphabet. Occultists believe that the Universe came from the Tree of

Life. They accept that man can be a god by traveling through the 10 Sefirot like a ladder to reach God as well (They also believe that since man is a miniature version of the Universe as a Microcosm, so Man can be enabled to spiritually expand into God). This is blasphemy and these teachings have existed form the Babylonian Mystery Schools (including Gnosticism). The Bible is clear that man can’t be God at all. The Kabbalic tree of Life has been drawn by Robert Fludd. He was from the 1600's and was a famous English Kabbalist plus Rosicurcian. Fludd incorporated the allegorical image of a tree with roots in heaven above and palm like branches on the bottom (which represents Malkhuth meaning foundation). Kabbala has a Gnostic flavor as many of it adherents follow dualsim (or there is a supernatural counterpart to God. Kabbalists view God has having a Male and Female form). Adam Kadmon in the Kabbala is the first primordial or archetypal Man. Even Maimondies (who is a famous Jewish rabbi of the 1100's A.D.) reject the Kabbalic view of the anthropomorphic vision of God. Kabbalist accept the heresy of Gilgul (or the transmigration and rebirth of souls). The Kabbala is very popular in the 21st century among Hollywood stars, Freemasonry, and much

of the global elite. Now, pro-Kabbalah fellow Alexander Neibaur (who was a Jewish convert to Mormonism) was Joseph Smith's friend and companion. Alexander (whose father Nathan Neibaur was a physician to Napoleon) sent a big library of Kabbalic material to Nauvoo. According to Lance Owens, Joseph Smith would turn to the Zohar in his attempt to defend his doctrinal heresies (from godhood of man to many gods existing). According to Fritz Springmeier's "Be Wise as Serpents" book:

"...Joseph Smith believed the Jewish Cabala was sacred knowledge which had been passed from God to Adam and from Adam to Enoch, to Noah, on down the line through Melchizedek to Moses. This priesthood has performed magic. Remember, the Caballa is intimately part of magic. Indeed, much magic derives from the Caballa...Joseph Smith needed to restore the mystery religions involved in mystic Christianity, because he believed the magic and occult in Freemasonry was only a shadow, a vestige of the real thing. An examination of Masonic literature prior to the 20th century will reveal teachings on the lineage of Jesus Christ, the importance of the Holy Grail (a blood line from Jesus), the mystical meaning of the crucifixion, the discipling of Jesus by Eastern gurus and other ideas. These are mentioned here, because the lack of public awareness of the old age of these teachings..."

This image is outside of the Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City, Utah. There is a Masonic handshake on the building. According to William J. Schnoebelen and James R. Spencer, Mormon Temple readily have the occult symbols of the sun, moon phases, etc. In fact, the Nauvoo sunstone, with its human face, is similar

to the Masonic depictions of the sun.

This is a picture of the Kabbalic Tree of Life.

Of course, Jesus having a secret bloodline has been refuted by mainstream researchers for decades. Hermeticism is even interrelated to the Kabbala. The reason is that Hermetic philosophy view man as being divine and composed among Nature (including that man is a reflection of the Universe and the Universe is reflection of man. This concept is called as above, so below). Orson Hyde created artwork pertaining to a tree in the Latter Day Saints' Millennial Star from 1847 (His imagehas branches looking similar to Fludd's tree). Orson's figure is entitled "A Diagram of the Kingdom of God." William Clayton was Joseph Smith's disciple. Clayton was Smith's personal secretary and his associates during Smith's years at Nauvoo. Clayton had an interest in the Kabbala. He received a guidebook of Cabala in 1864 in

Utah. That's why it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that Joseph Smith had an interest in Masonry, ceremonial magic, and the Kabbalah. There is a alchemical connection to the Kabbalah. According to Manley P. Hall’s volume, The Secret Teaching of the Ages,

“Alchemy is a threefold art, its mystery well symbolized by a triangle. Its symbol is 3 times 3—three elements or processes in three worlds or spheres [3 triads]. The 3 times 3 is part of the mystery of the 33rd degree of Freemasonry, for 33 is 3 times 3, which is 9, the number of esoteric man and the number of emanations from the root of the Divine Tree [Kabbalist Tree of Life].” (Manly P. Hall, The Secret Teachings of All Ages, 1928, p. 154). The Sephirot (intelligences or emanations) in the Kabbalist “Tree of Life” also form three triads. Each triad “consisting of two opposites (flowing or emanating from a superior triad until the divine unity is reached), and being reconciled in a middle point of connection.” According to another source: “Thus each triad is compounded of force, counter-force, and their connecting link: namely active and passive agents and combination.” (Jewish Encyclopedia, “Sefirot, Ten”). Just as alchemy and the Sephirot of the Kabbalist “Tree of Life” function within three triads (nine total), in which “opposites are reconciled until divine unity is reached,” the dialectic process also purposes to reconcile opposites to unity and it also functions within three triads in which opposites emanate from a superior triad. These functions of the dialectic process of synthesis, antithesis, and turning into synthesis was modernized by Hegel. Hegel ironically was an occultist and followed the Kabbalah. So, the Kabbalah is unscriptural since it denies that God Almighty directly created the universe, it promotes secrecy, and it relates to the occult rituals of pagans plus mystics. In fact his widow said that Joseph Smith wore a Jupiter occult talisman on the night of his murder in a Carthage jail. Mormons killed 120 men, women, and children in the Mountain Meadows Massacre. Joseph Smith made no real prophecies of the future, so he is a false prophet. Even

Brigham Young outline false prophecies as well. Today in 2009, the FBI and the CIA readily recruit Mormons, because many of them are versed in foreign languages (including conformity). The Book of Mormon teaches that Jesus Christ visited into America and ministered to people. It also claimed that Nephites (or light skinned people) and Lamanites (or dark skinned people) battled against each other. The Nephites to Mormons were supposedly Jewish people. There hasn’t been no trace of the 38 major cities with large “Christian Temples” that were written in the Book of Mormon by Joseph Smith. Of course, there is no evidence to substantiate these claims at all. Mormons claimed they lived during the peak of the Mayans (i.e. 300-900 A.D.), but the Mayans cite no point to the Nephites or Lamanites' existence at all. Mormonism teaches that Lamanites was from Cain and was dark in a racist fashion. The Book of Mormon was allegedly created from 600 B.C. to 500 B.C. Yet, they quote from the books of Matthew, Luke, Peter, and Paul in the New Testament verbatim. Early Mormons even taught a sick version of blood atonement. That meant that shedding blood literally from humans was necessary for salvation. That is why some Mormons committed atrocities in the Mountain West. As a side note, Lucifer is a being worshipped by numerous people in the inner elite of the Secret Societies from the Druids, the Freemasons, the OTO, etc. Ezekiel 28:17 describes Lucifer in negative terms as Satan. Lucifer was once a great creation of God. Since Lucifer rebelled against Almighty God, he is thrown out of Heaven. He and his angels are running around in Hell and in the Earth. Luciferian solar cuts also worship Satan/Lucifer in the form

of the Baphomet. Eliphas Levi created a modern rendition of the Baphomet image as a goated headed being (with horns, breasts, and hands in a "as above so below" form. These hands represent the Hermetic concept. The image represents an androgynous person as Lucifer/Satan). One hand is pointing to the moon of Chesed above and one hand is pointing to the Geburah below. Levi's image has the Baphomet having a Pentagram on its forehead (along with a lighted torch present). The torch according to Eliphas Levi was the flame of intelligence between the horns representing the magic light of Lucifer. The abdomen of the Bapomet has the caduceus symbol (which is a stylized phallic emblem). This refers to fertility and generation (as Secret Societies worship Nature and have sexual rituals). Some researchers theorize that the Baphomet is a code for the merging of the Goddess (aka Diana, Sophia, etc.) with the false god of Lucifer to produce the magical child (or the Antichrist). One Mormon President was Ezra Taft Benson. The Mormon called him a prophet and he was a fan of the John Birch Society. The John Birch Society have been exposed as controlled opposition. The reason is that the JBS has ties to the CNP, the Federal Reserve (among their old leaders not their low level members), and they obsess with the Communism (when Communism is an instrument of the Elite. It isn't the whole package of how the new world order operates at all. Anthony Sutton and other prove how Big Banks and Foundations like the Rockefeller Foundation funded Communism for decades). Ezra Taft Benson is a descendent of Alphonso Taft, who along with one of the Russell family (Russells are one of the top 13 families), William Huntington Russell, started the Order of the Skull and Bones (legally it has been known as Russell Trust). Remember, that George Bush was a Skull & Bones-man. Therefore, Mormon leaders have been related to the Merovingians, the Russells, and other elite bloodlines. One famous Mormon person is Bo Gritz, who tries to mix buzz words from Mormon prophecy (which describes the Mormons as defending the U.S. Constitution in a crisis in order to establish their theocracy called Zion in America).

This is the angel Moroni that Joseph Smith claimed sent a vision to him about spiritual matters.

We do know for certain that Secret Societies promote the "Great Work" or a secret goal of attempting to create an utopian society. The Bible is rather clear from the book of Revelation that we shouldn't add to what is mentioned in the Scriptures. Mormon Temples throughout the world like old Temples of the ancients (like the Great Pyramid of Giza, Stonehenge, the Parthenon, and even the Chichen Itza on the Yucatan Peninsula) represent spiritual significance. Some of the more ancient ones represent false gods and goddesses being worshipped. In the Middle Ages, many cathedrals had symbolism in it. It's held that the speculative Freemasons (or the builders of buildings in Europe) evolved into the modern Freemasonry by the 1700's. A Freemason like Joseph Smith would be interested in the occult since Freemasonry has occult/Witchcraft relationships:

“... both Masons and witches today refer to their cult as 'the Craft.' The Third Degree of

the witches refers to 'the Five Points of Fellowship,' just as the Third Degree of Freemasonry does, though with a rather different meaning. In the third Degree initiation, the candidate is blindfolded, has a cable-tow placed about the neck and is admitted upon the point of a sharp instrument, in both Gardnerian witchcraft and Freemasonry.” - Valiente, Doreen (1989). The Rebirth of Witchcraft, London: Robert Hale, pp. 55-56. ( Source)

Later on, many Masonic imagery are found in Mormon Temples, especially in Utah. There are planetary stones on the Mormon Salt Lake Temple in Utah. There is especially the Pentagon in the Salt Lake Temple. The Pentagram relates to Nature and witchcraft. Albert Pike wrote that the blazing star of Sirius (or the Dog Star) is a star of Masonry and is related to the origin of the Pentagram. Sirius was called Set. Set (who is shown as a dog headed man. The ancient Greeks called Set Sothis) is the Egyptian version of the Devil today. There is the Big Dipper found in the Salt Lake Temple. The Salt Lake has the All Seeing Eye emblem, handclasps (which looks similar to Masonic handshakes), and the beehive (which means industry). In the Mormon Temple, weird ceremonies take place. They include wearing magic underwear after being washed with oils (as apart of the Garment of the Holy Priesthood), and being revealed a new name. January 31, 1984 was the date where the Grand Lodge of Utah repealed its long standing anti-Mormon resolution. Ed Decker is a Christian who used to be a Mormon. Ed Decker was a former Temple Mormon and a former member of the Holy Melchizedek priesthood. Now, he exposes the Mormon’s false doctrine with his site Saints Alive. “God Makers” is Decker’s book about dissenting with Mormonism. Mormonism is a precise religion that adds unbiblical concepts to mainstream Christianity completely.
