Mormonism, Masonry, ndi miyambo yawo yokhudzana ndi Temple
Ndinkachita nawo ntchito ya Mormon Temple kwa zaka zopitilira 1842 ngati a Mormon. Sindinadziwe kuti ndimachita kupembedza mizimu mwachikunja. Joseph Smith, yemwe anayambitsa chipembedzo cha Mormonism adakhala Mason mu XNUMX. Iye adati "Ndidali ndi Masonic Lodge ndipo ndidakwera digiri yapamwamba." Adayambitsa mwambo wa kachisi wa Mormon pasanathe miyezi iwiri pambuyo pake (Tanner xnumx).
Freemasonry ndi gulu lalikulu kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi, lakale kwambiri komanso lodziwika bwino padziko lonse lapansi. Inayamba ku London mu 1717. Blue Lodge Masonry ili ndi madigiri atatu: 1. Adalowa Apprentice (digiri yoyamba), 2. Fellow Craft (digiri yachiwiri), ndi 3. Master Mason (digiri yachitatu). Madigiri awa ndizofunikira ku madigiri apamwamba a York Rite, Scottish Rite, ndi Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. Zanenedwa za Freemasonry kuti ndi "dongosolo labwino kwambiri lamakhalidwe abwino, lokutidwa mophiphiritsira komanso lofanizidwa ndi zifaniziro." Nthano ndi nthano yomwe choonadi chamakhalidwe chimaperekedwa kudzera mwa anthu onama. Mormonism imakhalanso 'yophimbidwa' mophiphiritsira. Kuchokera pamaola ofufuza omwe ndachita m'mbiri yoyambirira ya a Mormon, zikuwonekeratu kuti Buku la Mormon ndikulemba zabodza kuchokera m'nthano yolembedwa yolembedwa ndi a Solomon Spalding, yophatikizidwa ndi mavesi osiyanasiyana a Lemba ochokera m'Baibulo omwe adawonjezedwa ndi Mpatizi wampatuko mlaliki wotchedwa Sidney Rigdon.
Paulo anachenjeza Timoteo - “Monga ndinakulimbikitsani popita ku Makedoniya - khalani ku Efeso kuti mungayese ena kuti asamaphunzitse zina, kapena kusamalira nthano ndi mibadwo yosatha, yomwe imayambitsa mikangano osati kumangiriza kwa Mulungu komwe kumachitika mchikhulupiriro."(1 Tim. 1:3-4) Paulo analangizanso Timoteo - “Lalikira mawu! Khalani okonzekera nyengo ndi nyengo. Tsimikizani, dzudzulani, dandaulirani, ndi chipiriro chonse ndi chiphunzitso. Popeza ikudza nthawi yomwe iwo sadzapirira chiphunzitso cholamitsa, koma malinga ndi zilako lako, chifukwa ali ndi makutu oyandikira, adzadziunjikira okha aphunzitsi; ndipo adzatembenuzira makutu awo kuchowonadi, nadzapatukira kunthano."(2 Tim. 4:2-4) Anandiuza mobwerezabwereza ngati Mormon kuti Buku la Mormon linali buku 'lolondola' kwambiri padziko lapansi; zolondola kwambiri kuposa Baibulo. Sindinadziwe kuti inali nthano chabe yothira mavesi ena a m'Baibulo.

Kupanga zomangamanga kumaphunzitsa kuti zolemba zonse 'zopatulika' zidachokera kwa Mulungu. Miyambo ya Masonic imaphunzitsa kuti ntchito zabwino ziziwayenera kulowa kumwamba, kapena 'Celestial Lodge' pamwambapa. Masonry, monga a Mormonism amaphunzitsa kudzilungamitsa kapena kudzikweza.
