I will have to find an online source to back this up, but many Freemasons teach that there are four gods.
One is the Creator, Yahweh, and the other is Lucifer (I don't remember the others). To begin with people are taught that Yahweh is good and Lucifer is bad, but if they are considered trustworthy with Masonic secrets they are taught that the "real truth" is that Lucifer is good and Yahweh is bad!!!
This is quoted from an article I decided not to cite, because it is too graphic in decribing the Satanic nature of Freemasonry:
Respected Freemason author Albert Pike says of Satan:
"Lucifer, the Light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the Spirit of Darkness! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the Light, and with its splendors intolerable, blinds feeble, sensual, or selfish souls? Doubt it not!"
This reveals what it means when new freemasons are encouraged to "seek the Light"!!! Nothing like what Christians would mean!
The cover of Albert Pike's "Morals and Dogma" has the Latin inscription:
" 'DEUS MEUMQUE JUS'. The literal meaning is 'God and My Right'...Doc Marquis says this statement is a very typical one within Satanism. It has two meanings, one within the other. First, this phrase means that the Freemason can depend upon their God to determine their Right and Justice. Secondly, since the God of Freemasonry is Lucifer, Masons are saying that they are "using occult methods", through Lucifer, to achieve their Rights and Justice. Marquis says that this phrase is very powerful and very dangerous within Satanism. The second a Satanist sees this phrase in Latin on Pike's book, he knows the material within is Satanism, without reading a word!"
Most of this is actually not known by most practicing freemasons. Why? Because of deceit, and also because those who enter the inner circle of Freemasonry are killed if they tell.

Freemason author Albert Pike said in his book on Freemason morals and dogma: "Masonry, like all the Religions, all the Mysteries, Hermeticism, and Alchemy, conceals its secrets from all except the Adepts and Sages, or the Elect, and uses false explanations and misinterpretations of its symbols to mislead those who deserve only to be mislead; to conceal the Truth, which it calls light, and draw them away from it."
Practicing freemason Manly P. Hall wrote: "Freemasonry is a fraternity within a fraternity -- an outer organization concealing an inner brotherhood of the elect ... it is necessary to establish the existence of these two separate and yet interdependent orders, the one visible and the other invisible. The visible society is a splendid camaraderie of 'free and accepted' men enjoined to devote themselves to ethical, educational, fraternal, patriotic, and humanitarian concerns. The invisible society is a secret and most August [defined as 'of majestic dignity, grandeur'] fraternity whose members are dedicated to the service of a mysterious arcannum arcandrum [defined as 'a secret, a mystery']."
What is the purpose of this outer organization, separate from the inner one? Read on, in the words of another masonic author (in a document detailing plans for the New World order):
"7. For what purpose then have we invented this whole policy and insinuated it into the minds of the gentiles [outer organization freemasons] without giving them any chance to examine its underlying meaning? For what, indeed, if not in order to obtain in a roundabout way what is for our scattered tribe unattainable by the direct road? It is this which has served as the basis for our organisation of SECRET MASONRY WHICH IS NOT KNOWN TO, AND AIMS WHICH ARE NOT EVEN SO MUCH AS SUSPECTED BY, THESE GENTILE CATTLE, ATTRACTED BY US INTO THE SHOW ARMY OF MASONIC LODGES IN ORDER TO THROW DUST IN THE EYES OF THEIR FELLOWS." (Emphasis in the original)
The outer organization is to distract people's attention from the Satanic inner one, and also outer freemasons carry out plans for the inner organization, without knowing the intentions and where those plans will lead!
In Christ,
