To those whose works are quoted in this book, along with many who are listed in the bibliography, you have been a big help to me. To the many Christian teachers I have had at Trevecca Nazarene University and Northwest Nazarene University for helping me form a Christian world view, I say may the Lord bless you. To the teachers I have had at the University of Minnesota, who were willing to let me speak about my beliefs on special creation and the flood in my geology class422es, along with the many students who asked questions, thank you very much. To my loving mother and father who have encouraged me to do what God has led me to do, I owe a big debt. To my many Christian friends, who have encouraged and prayed for me through the years, I say, thank you. To my first wife, Arlene, a wonderful Christian who has gone to be with our Lord, for being such a big part of my desire to be everything God wants me to be, I say, till we meet again, thank you my “little buddy.” To my second wife, Arlene Roller Wright, who spent hours helping me to proofread the original manuscript of this book, I give a big “thank you.” Thank you to those who have make graphics available for my book's front cover. Most of all, to the LORD God of Glory, Who has given me a sound mind to understand and relate to you the concepts that are written in this book, I praise His wonderful name and give thanks. 6 Focusing the Word of Truth on the Raging Sea of Treacherous Lies TABLE OF CONTENTS TITLE: 7 STEPS TO GOD'S GLORIOUS FREEDOM 1 DEDICATION 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 5 TABLE OF CONTENTS 7 PREFACE 11 THE END of rebelling against God and His Word 13 AUTHOR’S COMMENTS 15 STEP 1 - THE CHURCH THAT SATAN’S SLAVES BUILT 17 Know your enemy and how to overcome his temptations STEP 2 - AN EXTENSIVE GUIDE TO UNDERSTANDING THE JUDEO- CHRISTIAN SCRIPTURES 63 SCRIPTURES 64 INTRODUCTION 66 CHAPTER 1 The World of the Spirit 69 CHAPTER 2 The Generations 73 CHAPTER 3 The Covenants 93 CHAPTER 4 The Law 99 CHAPTER 5 The Judges 109 CHAPTER 6 The Kings and the Kingdom 115 CHAPTER 7 The Writings of Job Through the Song of Solomon 119 CHAPTER 8 The Prophets and Their Prophecies 133 CHAPTER 9 The Savior of Lost Mankind 163 CHAPTER 10 The Gospels and the Gospel 167 CHAPTER 11 The Great Commission Call to the Church 171 7 7 Steps to God's Glorious Freedom CHAPTER 12 Jesus is Coming to Receive His Kingdom 175 CHAPTER 13 The Formulating of a Christian Theology 177 STEP 3 - UNDERSTANDING THE TIMES AND SEASONS FOR GREATER PREPAREDNESS FOR SPIRITUAL WARFARE 193 A Call to General Repentance 194 God's Operation Manual For Spiritual Warfare 197 STEP 4 – DEVELOPING A SOUND MIND FOR GREATER SERVICE FOR GOD AND OTHERS 259 INTRODUCTION 260 CHAPTER 1 The Fine Art of Sound Reasoning 261 CHAPTER 2 Basic Assumptions in Good Science Circles 275 CHAPTER 3 The Characteristics of Good Science 279 CHAPTER 4 Back to the Garden of Eden for Good Health 297 CHAPTER 5 Communicating a Christian World View 301 STEP 5 - THE TRUTH OF GOOD SCIENCE CONTRASTED WITH THE ILLUSIONS OF MODERN “SCIENCE, FALSELY SO-CALLED” 305 INTRODUCTION 306 CHAPTER 1 Good Scientific Research Has Established the Truth of Special Creation 307 CHAPTER 2 Some Good Results When Using the God-Honoring Principles of Good Science 323 CHAPTER 3 Some Bad Results When Using the Fallacies of “Science, Falsely So-called” 327 CHAPTER 4 How to Develop Good Science and Stay Clear of the “Science, Falsely So-Called” Syndrome 337 STEP 6 - THE MARRIAGE OF THE HOLY BIBLE AND TRUE SCIENCE 8 Focusing the Word of Truth on the Raging Sea of Treacherous Lies IN REVEALING GOD AS CREATOR AND REDEEMER OF THE UNIVERSE 345 INTRODUCTION 345 ACT I 346 Scene 1 The Groom is True Science 347 Scene 2 The Bride is the Holy Bible 348 Scene 3 The Romance of the Lovers 348 Scene 4 The Courtship of the Lovers 349 Scene 5 The Proposal and Acceptance 350 Scene 6 The In-laws are the Household of God 352 Scene 7 The Out-laws are Those in the Humanist Movement 354 Scene 8 The Minister is the Eternal God 356 ACT II 357 Scene 1 The Marriage Ceremony 358 ACT III 360 Scene 1 The Reception 361 Scene 2 The Children are the Creation-Scientists 361 Scene 3 The Family Honor 362 THE BEGINNING of a New Life in Christ Jesus 366 STEP 7 - THE CHURCH THAT JESUS BUILT 367 Developing a Loving Personal Relationship With Jesus BIBLIOGRAPHY 409 ENDNOTES 416 AUTHOR’S BIOS 417 9 7 Steps to God's Glorious Freedom 10 Focusing the Word of Truth on the Raging Sea of Treacherous Lies PREFACE After some consideration, I felt the contents of my book could best be expressed by changing its title from “Deceitful Masters: The Truth About the Scientific Nature of God’s Creations the ‘Ruling Elite’ Does Not Want You to Know” to “7 Steps to God's Glorious Freedom: Focusing the Word of Truth on the Raging Sea of Treacherous Lies.” The wicked God-haters (ruling elite) are those people who are working day and night to do away with all references to God in your society and to set up a One World Government with a One World Religion. Due to the fact we are in a spiritual battle, I have added my E-books, “The Church That Man Built” (changed to “The Church That Satan’s Slaves Built”); “The Church That Jesus Built;” “A Call to General Repentance;” and “God’s Operation Manual for Spiritual Warfare” to this edition so you can be better equipped to “fight the good fight of faith.” “Called Unto Holiness or Called Unto Speaking in Tongues” has been added to address the tongues issue that is sweeping over our churches. This edition is organized to take you into the area of revealing your enemy, followed by over 300 “keys” to understanding the Bible. This will give you a working understanding of what God requires of you. Then you are given a “Call to Repentance” and “God's Operation Manual for Spiritual Warfare.” Then you will be shown how to think logically. After this, you will be shown the difference between good science and “science, falsely so-called.” Then follows a play picturing the “marriage” of the Holy Bible and True Science to bring glory and honor to your wonderful Creator God. Then there is a challenge for you to start a new life (The Beginning) in the Lord Jesus Christ. To do this, you are shown “The Church That Jesus Built.” There is a Bibliography. Endnotes and Author's Bios at the end of this book. Howard Eugene Wright Yates Center, Kansas August 2013 11 7 Steps to God's Glorious Freedom 12 Focusing the Word of Truth on the Raging Sea of Treacherous Lies THE END If you have been given to a self-centered, worldly-minded, Bible-bashing attitude, decide that from this time forward you will allow God to teach you His ways! Before you can get out of the dungeon of spiritual bondage and at the foot of the stairs that lead you into God's glorious freedom of love, joy and peace you must change you attitude toward God and His Holy Word. 13 7 Steps to God's Glorious Freedom 14 Focusing the Word of Truth on the Raging Sea of Treacherous Lies AUTHOR’S COMMENTS This is not merely a book for your entertainment or curiosity.

  • Prayer of Release for Masons & Their Descendants
    PRAYER OF RELEASE FOR MASONS & THEIR DESCENDANTS A 2002 Version If you or someone you love is a descendant of a Mason, I recommend that you pray through the following prayer from your heart. Don't be like the Masons who are given their obligations and oaths one line at a time and without prior knowledge of the requirements. First, bind spirits of deception, antichrist, witchcraft, and death in the name of Jesus Christ. Then read it through so you know what is involved. It is best to pray this aloud with a Christian witness or counselor present. We suggest a brief pause following each paragraph to allow the Holy Spirit to show any additional issues that may require attention. Father God, creator of heaven and earth, I come to You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. I come as a sinner seeking forgiveness and cleansing from all sins committed against You, and others made in your image. I honor my earthly father and mother and all of my ancestors of flesh and blood and by adoption, but I utterly turn away from and renounce all their sins. I forgive all my ancestors for the effects of their sins on my children and me. I confess and renounce all of my own sins. I renounce Satan and all of his works in my family and me. I renounce and forsake all involvement in Freemasonry or any other lodge or craft by my ancestors and myself. I renounce witchcraft, the principal spirit behind Freemasonry, and I renounce Baphomet, the Spirit of Antichrist and the curse of the Luciferian doctrine.

  • Oklahoma Mason February 2009
    2009 - vol. II February/March page 1 James Richard Onkst - 1995 1939 - 2009 page 2 The Oklahoma Mason 2009 - vol. II February/March From the Grand Master As we begin writing this issue of the Oklahoma Mason Magazine, our thoughts and prayers are centered on the families of M.W. Jim Onkst, Past Grand Master in 1995, and R.W. Tom Ward Past Grand Treasurer of this Grand Jurisdiction. These two gentlemen were devoted family men and devoted Masons. There is a lot of degree work going on around the State AND most of these new Masons are very young. A few years ago, I would have just said "Young" not "Very Young", I guess I'm getting old (or they really are "Very Young")! If your Lodge needs some help performing the Degrees, please don't hesitate to ask for help. See the article by R.W. Randy Rogers in this issue. Your Brethren are always ready to assist. Once these young men start showing up to meetings, don't push them aside or set them in a corner. Get them involved through encouragement, not Force. That stuff doesn't work on these "Millennial Masons." They want to feel as though it is their decision to become part of something their Fathers & Grandfathers only whispered about. Also, they don't want their Degree "Shortened" or major parts left out. You see, they know more about what's going to happen to them then we did. Once your Lodge accomplishes a "Younger" look, you will find that your Lodge will begin to grow and become a viable part of the Community.

    Masonic Leaks » Michael Lesinski 8/3/11 12:56 PM Home About Submit Your Story Talk To Us Disclaimer Posts Tagged ‘Michael Lesinski’ Sex and Prostitution: Use Our Code of Secrecy To Keep It Quiet Posted by leakdump on March 6th, 2011 For quite some time there has been a growing number of unsubstantiated rumors of sexual misconduct within the Royal Order of Jesters (see the previous article about molestation in Demolay). However, more light has glimmered upon in the darkest of areas of our Fraternity once again. This time, numerous states are involved showing that organized prostitution and abuse is rampant. Those states include, but are not limited to, Texas, Florida, and New York. The first sign of the Jesters’ abuse came in the form of an anonymous email sent to the Grand Lodge of Texas. The claim was generalized. The information within the email was investigated by the Grand Lodge of Texas. The appointed Grand Lodge Officers were unable to find a Mason who could substantiate the unsigned email. Second, there are Court Documents filed in The United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida Miami Division which indicated there was a problem within the Jesters’ Order (Case Number 07- 21228-CIV-Martinez-Bandstra, dated December 20, 2007). The documents list 57 witnesses, 19 of which are believed to be members of the Jesters. These witnesses were to testify about illegal drugs and child prostitution. See the attached documents showing the statements from the abused children, the original civil complaint, and the witness list from that legal proceeding.
