Albert Pike Morals and Dogma from the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry p.200.

“The Masonic religion should be, by all of us initiates of the high degree, maintained in the purity of the Luciferian doctrine.

If Lucifer were not god, would Adonay (sic)whose deeds prove his cruelty, perfidy, and hatred of man, barbarianism and repulsion for science, would Adonay and his priests culminate him?

Yes Lucifer is god, and unfortunately Adonay is also god.

For the eternal law is that there is no light without shade, no beauty without ugliness, no white without black, for the absolute can only exist as two gods, darkness being necessary for light to serve as its foil as the pedestal is necessary to the state.

Thus the doctrine of Satanism is a heresy; and the true and pure philosophical religion is the belief in Lucifer, the equal of Adonay; but Lucifer and god, God of Light and God of Good, is struggling for humanity against Adonay, the God of Darkness and Evil.”

Albert Pike Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry p.217 Quoted again by William Shnoebelen in Masonry Behind the Light p.58-59

“When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mystery of his craft.

The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands and before he may step onward and upward he must prove his ability to properly apply his energy.”

Manly P Hall The Lost Keys of Freemasonry p.48

For Thou [Lucifer] hast said in thine heart,

I will ascend into heaven,

I will exalt my throne above the stars of God :

I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation,

In the sides of the north :

I will ascend above the heights of the clouds;

I will be like the most high

Isaiah 14:13-14

In so doing Lucifer moved to destroy monotheism to be replaced by many cults and orders thus introducing polytheism and many gods giving his cohorts a place in his court.

And no marvel: for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light [in the hearts of men].

Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transformed as the ministers of righteousness:

Whose end shall be according to their works [so too those who follow the false doctrine]

2 Corinthians 11:14-15

In a letter dated 15 August 1871 from Pike to Mazzini, Pike made it clear that the plan to consolidate the world under the direction of Lucifer will be achieved through three world wars :

“The First World War must be brought about in order to permit the Illuminati to overthrow the power of the Czars in Russia and of making that country a fortress of atheistic communism. The divergencies caused by the agents of the Illuminati between the British and Germanic empires will be used to foment this war. At the end of this war, communism will be built and be used to destroy the other governments and in order to weaken the religions.” Insight

“The Second World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the difference between the Fascists and the political Zionists. This war must be brought about so that Naziism is destroyed and that the political Zionism is strong enough to institute a sovereign state of Israel in Palestine. During the Second World War, international communism must become strong enough in order to balance Christendom, which would then be restrained and held in check until the time when we would need it for the final social cataclysm.”

“The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the agents of the Illuminati between the political Zionists and the leaders of the Islamic world. This war must be conducted in such a way that Islam and political Zionism mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual, and economical exhaustion.”

“We shall unleash the Nihilists and the Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effects of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of there most bloody turmoil. The multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, will receive the true light through the Universal (Jesuit Vatican II system) manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. (Externalisation of the Hierarchy, Blavatsky) This will follow thew destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time.”
