I grew up in a rural area, in which a beautiful home is now for sale. Up until 2002, this home was the local Masonic Temple. In 2002, it was sold by the local Lodge, and what was the Lodge was then renovated and turned into a beautiful, large and well planned family home. There is a stone wall at the front and its entry portal still has “Masonic Temple” chiselled on either side as you enter the property.

Could a Catholic buy the property? My understanding of what goes on at Masonic Lodge is that it verges on the demonic and hence would the property have any spiritual legacy of Masonic activity? I also understand that Masonic activity can risk inflicting on a Mason and his family a series of curses on their life, health, finances and relationships.

If the property is purchased, would it be sufficient to ask a priest to bless the property before moving in? Or is a more heavy-duty spiritual cleansing required? Or best avoid the property altogether?

I appreciate any assistance from those who have a background in spiritual warfare and/or Freemasonry’s curses.

Thanks.

I don’t have any specific knowledge but it might be good to have a traditional priest do an exorcism (solemn, if possible) on the house in addition to, or incorporated into, a house blessing. It certainly can’t hurt and any traditional priest will understand your concerns (of course, for a solemn exorcism, you also need the support of the bishop, which may be more difficult).

Freemasonry certainly is demonic and involves the worship of demons and the practice of magic. Demons may very well thickly infest that property. But exorcisms are often not a one-shot deal, if you buy the home, this may be an ongoing battle with them. So it might just be for the best to look elsewhere for a new home.

I personally would not have a problem purchasing the property. If it’s a nice house at a good price, buy it. If you make an offer, ask that the Masonic inscriptions be removed as part of the offer. If the answer is negative, then buy the house anyway and remove the inscriptions yourself.

I wouldn’t worry about any “curses”, etc. :tsktsk: Though Masons have their own beliefs, they are not satanic, but neither are they ancient going back to the building of Salomon’s Temple. Their rituals mean nothing to us, so it’s just a lot of dress-up superstition.

As when any home is purchased, it’s a good idea for Catholics to have a priest come and bless their new home.

Graham,

Masons don’t worship demons or satan. The reason the Church doesn’t allow membership in the masons is because their beliefs (religious indifferentism) opposes the teachings of the Church. It has nothing to do with demon worship or satanism. There could be individual masons who engage in satan worship, but obviously that is not the norm in Masonry.
 
Thank you very much. I really appreciate all the helpful comments.

It is a very beautiful home and in an ideal location. The former Lodge room (the inner room where the Masons all met and did whatever Masons do) is now the family room, according to what I have been told. I just wonder if sitting in that room I would somehow be confronted by the ‘ghosts’ of Masons past.

I realise that some have different views of Freemasonry and I have a Scottish ancestor who was a Master Mason. However, everything I have read is slightly strange and especially its derivation from Egypt and the Pharoahs. When I first started reading about the Masons, I thought being about the Temple of Solomon, it would be Jewish and thus monotheistic if not Christian. But everything I have since read says that there is a lot of Egyptian and Baal-type myth in Freemasonry.

Masonry started in the 18th century, the late 17th century at the earliest. I wouldn’t worry about it.

Do you even know what Baal is? Baal was just a generic name for any pagan God worshiped by the Canaanites. Baal is not a specific god.

I wouldn’t let it worry you. The early Christians made good use of pagan temples without worrying about ghosts.
 
if it’s a good deal (:twocents: i do think home prices are going to continue to drop though) and you like it, buy it. call up your Priest and explain the situation. he will get permission from the Bishop and do an exorcism for infestation if the Catholic Church thinks it is necessary. if not get it blessed and sprinkle Holy Salt and Holy Water around the house and grounds. pray and receive the Sacraments often.

then relax an enjoy your new home and know that you helped to take out some spiritual pollution. Christ’s CC can wipe out any garbage that might have gone on in that building. fear not and triumph!

peace.
 
Thank you to all commenters.

The Masonic connexion does worry me, as I just find Freemasonry to be spiritually darkening and I understand that Freemasons and the objects of Freemasonry are the subject of curses and the demonic. Perhaps my question is better asked in terms of whether involvement in Freemasonry does affix to a person and a place, in terms of curses and the like. I am sure there is a spiritual warrior somewhere who knows the answer!
 
St. Benedict turned pagan temples into Places of Christian worship. Freemasonry is luciferian but you sound a God fearing man so with a solemn House blessing you will be ok. Maybe set up a shrine to Our Lady there. That should put the demons to flight.

If you’re going to worry about that then you could probably find Masonic implications on the dollar bill and the whole city of Washington as well. So I wouldn’t worry about it, it’s part of our life. Just don’t join.
 
It is best not to buy a house where demonic rituals were performed.
 
If I were you, I wouldn’t buy it; there are plenty of other houses you can buy without having to worry about “masonic presence” or having it spiritually cleared of any Masonic demons. That way you’ll have peace of mind.

Freemasonry doesn’t involve demonic rituals. I would suggest making sure the roof, furnace, plumbing, wiring, etc are in good working order.

I don’t know much about this issue with freemasonry but as I understand, whether there is a curse or not, you should not fear because you have God to protect you. However, the building’s purpose really seems to bother you. On those grounds maybe you should not buy it. Why worry about something like this? I would certainly not want to live in a former pagan temple, even if it was considered ok by an exorcist.

Graham, to be honest I’d avoid it… but if I were to live there, I’d get a priest to come in and do a blessing and then would put sacramentals and holy images in it. 🙂

I agree with this, including the part about the traditional priest. The rite for blessing holy water that they use includes exorcism 🙂

the St Benedict medal is also good
 
To everyone who said that masons don’t worship demons, etc… a person can worship demons without knowing it, by worshipping something other than God. Their religion is very different from ours. Actually there is some evidence that the demonic is involved. Our Lady of Good Success (Church approved apparition) even warned us about the masons. It’s not all that harmless.

God bless
 
Thank you to everyone. I decided not to go ahead. I just felt that the property would have spiritual risks and darkness that I did not want to have to worry about!

Thanks as always to all CAF members and may God bless all who have assisted me.
