Each picture can be clicked for a larger image. Here are some pictures I found

that have to do with the beginning of masonry in the bosom of the Church of

Constantinople. It coincides with the first years of the 20th century, “when

the Patriarchs of Constantinople would go to England to get theological

education and there joined Masonic lodges. (See the collection: Protests of

the Orthodox World against the Visit of the Patriarch of Constantinople to

the Pope of Rome in December 1987. Published by ‘Riurik’, p. 5; journal

Orthodoxy or Death, No. 1, Moscow, 1997, pp. 66-7). Meletius (Metaxakis)

was known under No. 44 in the Masonic lodge ‘Harmony’, as stated by the

Masonic publication ‘PythagoreEquerre’ (vol. 4, part 7 - 8, 1935). His

brothers-successors were also high-ranking Masons. Basileus III (Georgiadis)

was a member of the English lodge ‘Valewood’; Athenagoras (Spire) (the

one who willfully lifted the anathema off the Latin’s) was the 30th degree

Mason in the lodge ‘Athenian East’ (Orthodoxos Typos, 16.7.1982); the late

Dimitri (Papandopulos), too, was one of them.”  [from the Bart link below]

 

Impostor Orthodoxy allows Scouting which is Masonic


If they act, walk and talk like masons, guess what, they are masons. After decades of constant ridicule for such actions I think it would behoove anyone to make a public corrective for such claims, if they were false. With such items as listed above and from many personal experiences, I have come to the only conclusion I know to have. If what is given here is contrary to the truth somebody should give a good explanation how that is.

This is yet another area where they cannot have it both ways, either one is against satan and roots out his work, or one allows harm to remain indefinitely. There are more than enough references to understand the situation here. For such a fraternity as Freemasonry there is not always a *roll card* made public. But believe me, there are many who know these occurrences by witnessing the events themselves. Their testimony should not be ignored.

For further documentation here is a list of links.

Ecumenical Patriarch Meletius made a Mason in connection with his election as bishop.

Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras became a Freemason when he moved to Athens.

Eastern Orthodox Freemasons

Other Orthodox Bishop Masons

Greek Food Festival organized at the Masonic Lodge as some church members are Masons, the show is complete with unchristian belly dancers.

Church of Greece: Statement against Masonry (then why are worship leading patriarch’s masons for the last several centuries?)

OCA condemns Freemasonry (why then are they in spiritual union with them???)

The Grand Lodge of Greece the official Famous Masons list reveals these patriarchs, bishops and others to be among their members, if false it would have been corrected by now: Ecumenical Patriarch Joachim III, Patriarch of Alexandria Photius (George Peroglou), Ecumenical Patriarch Meletius (Manuel Metaxakis), Ecumenical Patriarch Basil III, Patriarch of Jerusalem Benedict (Basil Papadopoulos), Metropolitan of Paronaxia Cherubim (Anninos), Metropolitan of Trebizond, later Archbishop of Athens Chrysanthus (Charilaus Philippides), Prince of Greece Andrew, Prince of Greece Christopher, King of Greece George II, Politician John Kapodistrias (Komis) first ruler of Greece, Politician John Metaxas (Prime Minister).

The Orthodox Square Club - A Freemason group restricted to Orthodox Christians where many of the members are clergy.

Serbian Orthodox have also been long standing satanic Freemasons as can be seen from ASERB.

Serbian Priest Andrew Phillips says that in Cyprus, before the World War I, Patriarch Meletios was the first Orthodox bishop to become a freemason. [This 500 KB PDF file has an undeniable amount of references (and clarifies much) detailing how Patriarch Meletios learned a lot about Freemasonry in Cyprus, but was actually initiated into Freemasonry at Constantinople’s Harmony Lodge in the beginning of 1909.] Also Fr. Andrew says the head of the Holy Synod (and the Russian Bible Society), member of the State Council, minister of education and commander of the 1st Russian Army, Prince Alexander Golitsyn (1773-1844) supported Freemasonry. It is no surprise, because it is well know that the prince was good friends with the liberal Tsar Alexander I. Russia has been neck deep in satanic Freemasonry for centuries. Father Andrew warns that these satanic secret societies are multiplying. I have to agree, and add that they are not only fullgrown but are becoming obese.

The Grand Lodge of Russia - Constitution (Freemasons were allowed into Russia through Catherine the [not so] Great, it was also during her reign that the heretic Roman Catholic church St. Catherine was built.)

Russian Orthodox Church: “Any Orthodox who joins Masonry loses all the rights and privileges of his membership in the Church.” (Strange Altars, Acker, page 60).

Freemasonry in the Antiochian Church - you ought to read the article in THE WORD - JUNE, 24 1986.


Below is as an interesting posting to an email list server that I ran across a year or so ago:

Truman was a fellow mason with Athenagoras and Iakovos and sent his presidential aeroplane to escort Athenagoras to his throne. Truman had agitated in favor of Athenagoras because he was afraid Orthodoxy would become a vehicle for communism. This is how the Russian Metropolia became and organ of the USA information and intelligence services and for years was listed in the almanacs as the only Orthodox jurisdiction in America, despite how the Presbyterians (the religious form of Puritanism and Masonry) initially sought to suppress this Metropolia after Seward bought Alaska. Meliton of Halkidon was a classmate of Iakovos (Kakuzis) at Halki and so when Athenagoras wanted Iakovos (his former NY assistant) to succeed Michael in America, the synod chose Meliton but the retired former patriarch Maximos advised Athenagoras “You Arvaniti, listen, just dissolve the Synod and form a new seven member one”. By the time Athenagoras died, Meliton had so poisoned the younger bishops at the Fanar against anything going on in America. Dimitrios was practically chosen by accident when the scheming’s of the Melitonites fell on their face and one of their allies suddenly died. Then when Pope Paul (Montini, the one who hid Croatian war criminal Pavelich with Peron) died, Jimmy Carter sent Iakovos (Kakuzis) as his personal envoy, only to have the Patriarch veto this as an affront to his authority. From then on, the Fanar Synod decided that Iakovos’ successor would not be from America. In the NY Archdiocese Alex Karloutsos, trained in the political machinery of Richard Dailey’s Chicago rose to prominence as a political fixer. He was well known for going to places like the Aspen Colorado ski resort to become acquainted with the rich and famous. There was much noise about how he invested a large amount of archdiocese funds in the Pelham Esplanade development via Chris Dimitriadis in the 1980s only to have that investment vaporize a decade later. It was also rumored that the archdiocese was the silent investment partner in the (then privately held) Gristides Red Apple chain of supermarkets run by one John Catsimatidis, an NYU engineering dropout from Nisiros, who went on to sleep in the Clinton Lincoln bedroom. Together with Catsimatides and Karloutsos was the former political columnist of the Long Island Press, George Douris, who formed HANAC as a welfare subcontractor under mayor Lindsey. These three went out of their way to encourage the formation of the large cult sect of Paisios old calendarites in Astoria with which they could leverage against the political exclusivity of the archdiocese and in this they received much support from Papandreou’s socialist and anti-American regime. When, in 1982, Iakovos sought permission to absorb the now fully new-calendarized Russian Metropolia (which sought to unethnically label itself “Orthodox Church in America”, after a semi-canonical autocephaly and the passing of its leader, Irineos) Iakovos wrote the patriarch that the newcomers were socialist and old calendarites, the letter was leaked to the Greek press by Karloutsos lest his leverage be diluted. Iakavos gave a much-ballyhooed speech in the mid-1980s to the furrier-district masonic lodge once patronized by George Washington. When Dimitrios died, Iakovos expected to become Patriarch and sent Karloutsos to Washington to agitate on his behalf. Schemingly, Karloutsos arranged instead that the Turks would not veto any candidate, leading to the election of Bartholomew (Archandonis). Then Bartholomew asked Karloutsos to get his London nephew a Washington job, so Karloutsos used the Archdiocese travel agency and when the agency mistakenly sent the bill directly to Iakovos, for this mysterious “Archandonis”, Karloutsos got fired, being able to falsely claim, “I got fired because of the Patriarch”. Karloutsos went on to set up a bait-switch rouse at Ligonier that led to the fall of Iakovos. The various Orthodox ethnicities, under patriarchal suggestion (the patriarch had already encouraged the formation of SCOBA’s IOCC) had decided to meet to discuss way to bring themselves closer together. But before they even unpacked their luggage, they received telephone calls from Athens Journalists asking why they were planning to declare an American autocephaly and Iakovos patriarch of America. Reading the final decision of this meeting, one gets only a rather bland sentiment of eventual long-term unity. But Karloutsos had set his play into motion and talked the Ukrainian Vsevolod (the only one who didn’t sign) to raise objections with the patriarch in Constantinople. But Vsevolod said nothing at Ligonier other than mildly refusing to sign. Somehow, Karloutsos had connived to get the tempestuous Masonic ecumenist Methodios (Tournas) to wage war against Vsevolod, only enlarging a rather small difference. With this, Bartholomew had the excuse to demand Iakovos retire. Meanwhile, two of Iakovos’ three closest advisors, Fr Dimitrios “MimisFrangos and Fr GermanosSavas” Stavropoulos had been killed a year earlier in a tragic traffic accident, which left Iakovos permanently emotionally scarred, vulnerable and weak.

 


 

Patriarch Bartholomew has been seen in his Mason “vestments” complete with a necktie (Freemasons are required to were a suit and tie to their meetings). Neckties are noted as being a noose, something which Judas who betrayed Christ with a kiss, was know for using. All these bishops mentioned on this page have never denied being Freemasons (Orthodoxos Typos, October 30, 1992). They keep silent on such matters due to the secret nature of the organization. The paper Orthodoxos Typos on December 9, 1988, says, “The leadership of many local new calendar Churches -- that is, bishops, other clergy, theologians, etc. -- have been overcome by Masonry.”

 


 

Above is a photo of the Freemason style occult All-Seeing Eye of Osiris (or some part of the Wedjat Eye-cycle pertaining to his father Horus), it is an icon on the outside of a monastery building at Athos. Being identical to ones in Esphigmenou, it can also seen on the back of our one dollar bill. There is no good Orthodox example of anything like this. The Stoglav Church council forbids images from foreign lands, as this image is unquestionably of pagan Egyptian origin. It is best to stay as far away as possible from such unholy things.
