The Freemason / Luciferian Connection to Darby’s Dispensationalism
This article is a composite three articles, one from https://libertytothecaptives.net/darby_writings_occult.html which is hard to read from a phone, one from https://theologyonline.com/threads/the-freemason-and-dispensationalist-connection.40545/, and one from https://www.cuttingedge.org/.
John Nelson Darby (1800-1882), the “Father of Dispensationalism,” used occult language throughout his doctrinal writings and letters. The majority of the phrases are found in Kabbalistic/Theosophical literature. J.N. Darby learned these esoteric terms somewhere—not from the Bible—and he deliberately integrated them into his theological treatises and letters. His practice of merging Theosophical vocabulary with supposedly biblical teaching is a form of syncretism.
Syncretism is the practice of combining different beliefs and various schools of thought. Syncretism involves the merging or assimilation of several originally discrete traditions, especially in the theology and mythology of religion, thus asserting an underlying unity and allowing for an inclusive approach to other faiths. – Wikipedia
The Absolute
John Nelson Darby
The Absolute is a Theosophical term for God.
The following is Helena Blavatsky’s description of the Absolute in The Secret Doctrine:

[Note: John Darby used the term, “vital force” the same way that occult practitioners do.]
Divine Mind
Theosophy and the Divine mind
H. P. BLAVATSKY defined Occultism as “the study of the Divine Mind in Nature”.

In spiritual subjects, it is the object of much distinct converse in them to be able to present them primarily and vividly, so as to lead the way to fuller investigation of the divine mind.
Divine Being

Theosophist Alice Bailey stated that the Seven Rays that reach us on Earth locally originate within the “Solar Logos,” i.e., the consciousness of the “Divine Being” of the Sun.

“In the case which has led to these remarks, it is striking to see how this principle elevates the slave in his condition: he obeys by an inward divine principle, as though it were Christ Himself whom he obeyed.” (Quote source: John Nelson Darby’s Synopsis of the Bible Ephesians Chapter 6: http://stempublishing.com/authors/darby/synopsis/ephesians/ephesians6.html)

Energy of Love
Theosophy and energy of love
“Bailey wrote of “the return of the Christ”, but her concept had little in common with that of mainstream Christian churches. Bailey almost always used the phrase “the Christ” when not referring specifically to the Christian idea. For her, the leadership of the Hierarchy is an “office” (so to speak), to be occupied by various Masters, including the Master Jesus, in the course of Their unfolding evolution. She saw the Christ as a great “Person”, embodying the energy of love, and His return as the awakening of that energy in human consciousness.”

Alice Bailey:
Darby and divine intelligence
“The three parables which follow (v. 44-50) shew the intention of Christ, and divine intelligence, in these things. The field is purchased to obtain the treasure. Christ has bought (not redeemed) the world to possess His own. His power over those who refuse His rights will be manifested in judgment, but this is not the subject of the parable.” http://www.stempublishing.com/authors/darby/MISCELLA/33012F.html

Darby and the Coming One
The axe is at the root of the trees, the fan is in the hand of the coming One, the wheat is gathered into God’s garner, the chaff burnt up. That is, there is a close of the history of God’s people in judgment. http://www.stempublishing.com/authors/darby/synopsis/matthew/matthew3.html
My opinion
One may argue that the occultic, Masonic, Kabbalistic, Theosophical terms that Darby used in his writings was the popular language of his day, but the fact is not one of these terms are found in the Bible! To me this proves Darby was not a Bible teacher, he was a promoter of Luciferian doctrines which he claimed to be based on the Bible. A preacher is supposed to teach the Word of God from the Bible!
2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word (the Bible), it is because there is no light in them.
Just think what an evil influence Darby continues to be on millions of evangelicals today who promote the unbiblical doctrine of support for physical Israel in spite of the fact Almighty God destroyed the Christ rejecting nation of Israel and the Temple through the Romans in 70 AD! How could the Protestant churches tolerate that? The only reason I can think of is the hidden hand of the Jesuit order and its Counter-Reformtion behind it all. I heard it only takes one infiltrator to subvert a church or even an entire Protestant denomination.
The following are quotes from an article entitled, “The Freemason and Dispensationalist Connection.”
In the history of the Southern Baptist Convention – or denomination – during the late 19th century and through the 20th century, many of its male members were both Freemasons and dispensationalists. However, the denomination did not become totally dispensationalist until the sixties when the preacher of the First Baptist Church of Dallas, W.A. Criswell, led the Convention to become totally dispensationalist. Criswell soon led the Southern Baptist denomination to get rid of its old doctrine of the priesthood of the believer because under dispensationalism, the preacher must rule the members.
The Southern Baptists are not the only Evangelicals to follow dispensationalism and to have many male members who are Freemasons. Some of the wives are members of the Masonic women’s organization, the Eastern Star.
Billy Graham, Pat Robertson, Rick Warren, Oral Roberts, Jerry Falwell and Robert Schuller were all high ranking Freemasons as are their present day successors like T.D. Jakes. (And they were all Dispensationalists as well who promoted the false pre-tribulation rapture doctrine and unbiblical claims about the modern state of Israel.)
Stephen Sizer wrote a history of dispensationalism which he called Christian Zionism: Road-map to Armageddon,2009, Inter-Varsity Press.
Sizer has other writings on the topic of Christian Zionism, such as .”Christian Zionism: The New Heresy that Undermines Middle East Peace”. Middle East Monitor. Retrieved 1 August 2013..
“The origins of the movement can be traced to the early 19th century when a group of eccentric British Christian leaders began to lobby for Jewish restoration to Palestine as a necessary precondition for the return of Christ. The movement gained traction from the middle of the 19th century when Palestine became strategic to British, French and German colonial interests in the Middle East. Proto-Christian Zionism therefore preceded Jewish Zionism by more than 50 years. Some of Theodore Herzl’s strongest advocates were Christian clergy.
Christian Zionism as a modern theological and political movement embraces the most extreme ideological positions of Zionism.”
“Burgeoning Christian Zionist organizations such as the International Christian Embassy (ICEJ), Christian Friends of Israel (CFI) and Christians United for Israel (CUFI) wield considerable influence on Capitol Hill, claiming a support base in excess of 50 million true believers. This means there are now at least ten times as many Christian Zionists as Jewish Zionists.”

“Freemason John Nelson Darby is regarded as the Father of Dispensationalism and its prodigy, Christian Zionism. It was Freemason Cyrus. I. Scofield and D. L. Moody, who brought Darby’s sectarian theology into mainstream evangelical circles. R. C. Sproul stated that dispensationalism is now ‘…a theological system that, in all probability, is the majority report among current American evangelicals.”
The article with the link shown above refers to this source for the claim that John Nelson Darby was not only a Freemason but also was an agent of the Rothschild-owned British East India Company, is this: John Coleman, How Conspirators Misuse Christian Fundamentalists (white paper) (Carson City, Nev.: World in Review, 2003)
John Darby said that the “Church has sought to settle itself here, but it has no place on the earth… [Though] making a most constructive parenthesis, it forms no part of the regular order of God’s earthly plans, but is merely an interruption of them to give a fuller character and meaning to them…” – John. N. Darby, ‘The Character of Office in The Present Dispensation’ Collected Writings., Eccl. I, Vol. I, p. 94.
“Them” are all physical Israel, or Old Covenant Israel. The church, for Darby exists mainly to “give fuller character and meaning to all physical Israel.”
John Darby and then C.I. Scofield and Lewis S. Chafer said that when the dispensation of grace is over then God will return to a dispensation of law and again raise up and work with the people of the physical bloodline.- of the Old Covenant.
John Darby says, that in dispensationalism the Church is a mere “Parenthesis” and Israel – Old Covenant Israel of the bloodline – is to reign in the future, but II Corinthians 3: 7-11, and Hebrews 10: 9 say the Old Covenant was done away with – and in the Old Testament Haggai 2: 9 says “The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former. saith the Lord of hosts…”
“JEWISH ENCYCLOPEDIA, 1903, Vol. 5, page 503: “The technical language, symbolism, and rites of Masonry are full of Jewish ideas and terms.”
In Morals and Dogma,Albert Pike admits that the source of Freemasonry’s doctrines ultimately goes back to the Kabbalah, a Jewish book of occult knowledge:
“All truly dogmatic religions have issued from the Kabalah and return to it; everything scientific and grand in the religious dreams of all the Illuminati, Jacob Boeheme, Swedenborg, Saint Martin, and others, is borrowed from the Kabalah: all Masonic associations owe to it their Secrets and their Symbols.” (Morals and Dogma, p 744)
“Therefore, the first understanding we want you to grasp is that Freemasonry is absolutely, completely, 100% devoted to the Solomon Temple, without which the entire structure and foundation of Freemasonry would die! Thus does Masonry stand in stark contrast to genuine, Biblical Christianity. In other words, Freemasonry is rooted at its deepest foundation to the First Covenant of the Old Testament, while Biblical Christianity is rooted to the Second Covenant of Jesus Christ as delineated in the New Testament.”
“Mackey makes this fact quite clear also: “Masonry has derived its temple symbolism, as it has almost all its symbolic ideas, from the Hebrew type …” [Ibid] Since the Old Testament was written originally in the Hebrew, and the New Testament in the Greek, Mackey is clearly stating that Freemasonry is rooted in the Old Testament!”
Yet the admission of top Masons that Freemasonry is under the influence of the Kaballah shows that Masonry is rooted in the Kaballah and in the Talmud.
The emphasis in Freemasonry on the rebuilding of Solomon’s temple can be seen as a metaphor for building a world wide Masonic kingdom, both political and religious. Rebuilding the temple of Solomon might also be seen to be metaphoric for the rebuilding of the Mason himself along the lines of the Kaballah. But Freemasonry is run from the top, and most Masons in the local lodges do not know much about that top elite of Freemasonry.
The Masonic absorption in rebuilding Solomon’s Temple as a metaphor for creating a Masonic kingdom, or New World Order, has some roots in the Kaballah.
A Kabbalist of the 1500s, Isaac Luria, writes about the olam ha-tohu, or realm of confusion, and the olam ha-tikkun, the realm of restoration, which is the Kaballistic version of the millennial kingdom, the world empire to come ruled by the Kaballists.
