I don't understand some of this terminology, but I have learned doing good to my enemies. Doing good to animals and equals ,lesser and more than me. Feels good man.
Riddle me: a boy naturally seeks out all mystical topics and religions by age 12; a scholar he pursues psychology/ philosophy at university. He starts to see the psychological connection, he understands the Ark-types a bit, hes always communicating whats hes learned. ...what would possess masonic grandparents to avoid fanning the flames of such a boy? We live in post covid times, at the end of the so called "great masonic experiment". I pray that the stones the builders refused become the new headcorners; i pray that these stones crush the false ashlars.
As a freemason..... And a Christian..... I can understand that everything in the world has to follow the laws of nature... From the rock on the side of the road to every individual... But by following masonic principles and using the tools correctly we will find god.... or diety. Unfortunately, we cannot force somebody else.T we believe as far as who the supreme bean is.... That is why when a person says the pledge of allegiance, Regardless of their religion, When? They say one nation under god which god do they refer to? Shirley a muslim a hindu and A christian can stand right next to each other and Recite the pledge of allegiance.... Yet all mean different gods.
@mysteryandmeaning297 We are not a religion.... we are of fraternity...a club...that has dues... Just like boy scouts has members of different religions, so does masonry. We would prefer that our members have some kind of moral foothold.... We do Good in the community in the name of god.... But we're not gonna bicker which God It is because this is not the time for that....This is the time for doing good in the community.. I do not have to believe in my Muslim brothers.God nor do I have to accept it.... But we can certainly do acts of good moral decision together.... That is why religion and politics are forbidden in the lodge room. Now with that being said most masonic lodges across the world are christian.... It used to be entirely Christian..... In 1755, according to the Constitution of the Grand Lodge of France, a person who was not baptized into Christ could not be made a Mason and several contemporary declarations were written by continental Masons, mainly German and Scandinavian, which underlined the strictly Christian character of the Order.
Firstly, Freemasonry is not a religion and there is no Freemason God. Secondly, it's a logical absurdity that Freemasons worship Satan because the first requirement to be considered as a potential Freemason is the belief in a Supreme Being that created the universe. Satan did not create the universe. Who that Supreme Being may be is up to the individual Freemason and is forbidden to be discussed with other Freemasons.
This is false doctrine. Satan is the great trickster because he can paint his lies in a coat of truth. Common sense dictates that the greatest liar lie in the truth. Therefore if one is greater than his adversary in the holy Spirit thanks to to the help of the most high God then even satans lies will help him find the truth.
What was the stone they were really referring to. Matt 21:42 it was Christ rejected by the Jews is now the foundation. If using bible have keep it in context if want the real meaning.
In truth there are no original christian teachings, only jewish. Whether we acknowledge or disagree is irrelevant, the will of god is imposed onto man and thus is the mechanism by which we are judged. The inheritors of the knowledge of the hidden ways of the universe still exist, and if ancient prophecy was to remain fulfilled to this day - certainly that would class a pedigree above any historical event/figure or trite notion of "loving good" "justice without fear/hope" etc. It originates from god, not the other way around.
Yes but you must understand that there is little originality in Judaism itself that doesn't come from ancient Babylonian and Egyptian teachings. There is nothing new under the sun. Christianity is merely another degree that is dynamic with Judaism the same way that Judaism was another degree that was dynamic with asyrian mysticism
Morality = the square of Feeling and Desire circumscribed by the compass points of Rightness and Reason..
The Compass to the craft! May both points ever be elevated above the Square!

Two thumbs up from me 👍👍
Instead of "lesser and more than me", how about you say "different than me"?
Also instead of saying "I have learned doing good to my enemies", how about we say "I have learned to do right, even by my enemies".
@@mrmotl1Beautifully said.
@@mrmotl1yes very well said brother

Intention to give, with a selfless moral compass guides one out of the darkness.
Meet on the level and part on the square

And you BELIEVE what they tell us about these meanings? Jesus said "satan has no truth in him".."he is the father of all lies"

All due respect good sir but assuming these teachings are evil is ignorant. Judge not!

Who does friggen that
The stone rejected by the master builders,became the cornerstone of the kingdom of God.
What was the stone they were really referring to. Matt 21:42 it was Christ rejected by the Jews is now the foundation. If using bible have keep it in context if want the real meaning.
