Acacia Apologetics: Controversial Issues on BBC Documentary
http://acaciaapologetics.blogspot.com/2012/04/controversial-issues-on-bbc-documentary.html
A discussion of Mormonism, Freemasonry, Christianity, and Temple Theology. Sunday, April 15, 2012. Controversial Issues on BBC Documentary. 1 Polygamy: I think it should have been emphasized that polygamy was phased out gradually following the 1890 revelation, and completely banned in 1910 with the exception of existing marriages. Also, more effort should have been taken to show that the FLDS is separate from the urban polygamist groups as well as the mainstream LDS church. Entertainment and Arts (Critiq...

Acacia Apologetics: Consecration and the Book of Acts
http://acaciaapologetics.blogspot.com/2011/02/consecration-and-book-of-acts.html
A discussion of Mormonism, Freemasonry, Christianity, and Temple Theology. Friday, February 11, 2011. Consecration and the Book of Acts. In this post I'd like to go over a passage in Acts that is problematic to many free-grace thinkers, and that is Acts 4:34 to 5:11. This is the story of Ananias and Sapphira, a husband and wife pair that sold their possessions but didn't give the proceeds to the church, so they were both struck dead by the Lord. Commandments such as these that are mentioned from the Book...

Acacia Apologetics: Religion and the Problem of Evil
http://acaciaapologetics.blogspot.com/2010/04/religion-and-problem-of-evil.html
A discussion of Mormonism, Freemasonry, Christianity, and Temple Theology. Monday, April 19, 2010. Religion and the Problem of Evil. I'm in the middle of developing a new blog entry, but in the mean time I thought I'd post my third master craftsman paper, which pertains to the Rose Croix degrees of the Scottish Rite. The topic is on Albert Pike's view of religion and the problem of evil. Labels: Freemasonry (Scottish Rite). Mormonism (Doctrine and Covenants). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Affiliate...

Acacia Apologetics: October 2011
http://acaciaapologetics.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
A discussion of Mormonism, Freemasonry, Christianity, and Temple Theology. Sunday, October 23, 2011. Astrological Cults and Facsimile 1 of the Book of Abraham. Joseph Smith identified the gods in the picture, which are the Four Sons of Horus, as Elkenah, Libnah, Mahmackrah, Korash, and Pharaoh. Sobek, the crocodile god in the picture, has long been identified with the god of Pharaoh, so I would like to focus on two of the other gods. Labels: Antimormonism (Critique of).

Acacia Apologetics: June 2011
http://acaciaapologetics.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
A discussion of Mormonism, Freemasonry, Christianity, and Temple Theology. Friday, June 17, 2011. Book Review: One Eternal Round by Nibley and Rhodes. Chapters 2 through 5 offer a very technical background of Egyptology and Abraham, showing paralells with the Book of Abraham with other ancient works and archaeology. It attempts to show that the Book of Abraham is an ancient document by showing us evidence of similar works throughout history. While interesting, it can be some very tedious reading. Chapter...

A discussion of Mormonism, Freemasonry, Christianity, and Temple Theology. Monday, February 1, 2010. Kabbalistic Tree of Life and Masonic Traits. This is interesting because it expresses the teachings of Scottish Rite Masonry in a systematic way, showing how man can be perfected and develop the divine characteristics within himself. It also sets the foundation on which all of the Scottish Rite degrees are based. These degrees teach duties that develop these traits in the candidate. Affiliated with The Ch...
