"Neither should any longer be called Abram.
Your name will be Abraham. For my father
I made it out of the state. "
Gen 17: 5
From the moment he was launched as an Entered Apprentice, Mason is taught the importance of staying free. The initiative will soon know that freedom is the quality of life that Craft takes very seriously. Each Mason is informed that early in the career of Freemasonry, his memories of life must strive to be the sole sovereign of his own destiny. Also, from a political point of view, Freemason generally does not like expressions, emphasizing freedom, freedom of religion, freedom of association, freedom of association, free public education for all citizens.
Albert Pike of Masons Books wrote that the state began and each requested to give up part of the sovereignty of the individual where two or some of these sovereignty were relevant. (Morality and doctrine). However, even in the act of abandonment, the individual interests are to participate in the establishment of a union where unity is never resolved. Union is a word that conveys both the definition of unity and the understanding of how to achieve human unity, is called brothers and sisters.
The meaning of Freemason's Freemason is likely to be quite different from what you got while you attended school. At universities throughout the country, there are many brothers and sisters on campus that provide male students with a central location such as social acceptance, friendship, fellowship activities, sleeping, studying, parties and homes. Women are not excluded. Most campuses offer the same kind of environment to female students. Many people who participate in Freemason are members of such brothers and sisters at once, and are also other social brotherhood organizations like Moose or elk lodges. It certainly does not condemn or condemn brothers and sisters who do a lot of precious service to the society where members live, but the meaning of religious organizations is practically philosophical.
Manly P. Hall, who lamented how quickly the community of good people transformed into the army of a malicious condemned criminal, wrote about books on Masons and the new brother orders that ultimately wish to clean the world . Hall called his new order, the gospel of identity, in his book entitled lecture on classical philosophy. The promise of his new gospel was that all life forms were manifestations of one God. Taking advantage of its excellence, the Hall has expanded his thoughts to include knowledge that all people are evolving into one identity, one government and one new world order. Such a way of thinking predicted that a new era, and certainly the ancient and accepted Scottish ritual entitled its publication "New Age". It predicted the hope of Freemasonry, the realization of the brothers and sisters of a man under the fatherhood of God.
The gospel of the hon's identity is rejected as a strange thought, even at the highest, even at the worst danger in promoting robbing of individual freedom, but given the lessons of Horley, Bible. As a teaching derived from Masonry's first great light, the importance of drawing individual acts needs to be carefully considered. In Genesis, God calls Abram from the masses, finds a valuable change to him, promises your name "all the people of the earth will be blessed". (Genesis 17: 5). That contract was with one sacred and rational person for all, not with many people for many countries.
Brothers and sisters' sense to Masonic includes at least knowledge that we are heirs of the benefits God promised as members of the countries mentioned in the Bible ... at least in all countries of the earth You will be blessed. But how does Freemason tell us how to be blessed? What should we do? Cain killed his brother Abel and was accused of wandering the world as we are told. The sons of Jacob entered the well through his brother Joseph and left for death. They suffered from the devastation of famine and death as a result. On the contrary, a man described in the Bible which dealt with brothers well, was treated well by God and nature. As a mason to us, the lesson is obvious: treat your brother so that you treat him - and you will be blessed.
But the concept of Abraham, the father of all countries, also tells me valuable lessons on how human beings are expected to live compared to the lessons taught to us by humans I will. We believe that human beings, equality is the foundation of human freedom. But true equality in all facts leads to confusion and confusion that jealousy and personal concern drives out justice, compassion and love. Equality taught in masonry holds that every person with all aptitudes has equal opportunities in life. Masonic teachers are not teaching that harmony and freedom are achieved when the existence of opposing opinions puts humanity into a moral turmoil - tolerance of other opinions. As it has been told, if Hermisite is the true philosophical ancestor of Freemasonry, we must listen to the lessons of that belief - diverse ideas and opinions are all men The intake of opportunities to freely and equally pursue became available to us.
If you are wise King Solomon, you must learn the thoughts and desires of your brothers, the inhabitants of your family, the neighbors, the house of worship and the workplace. As a human being, we are first gathered by different people, then listen to the differences and then make a difference by reaching consensus. It is a sad thing in our world today that the word of compromise has fallen into such dissatisfaction. To compromise a position means to reject all things. The arrogance of such premise is self-explanatory - no one has the right to make a premise that your opinion is wrong as his view is correct. But we have the right and indeed have the duty as a person to support the position we believe is the most correct. However, as advocacy ends, as brothers and sisters of the children of God, we are obligated to synthesize and harmonize the obligations leading to a peaceful agreement to achieve compromise, in order to comply with the teachings of harmonic philosophy .
Freemasonry does not release us as a human being from the responsibility of incorporating the difficult task of discovering the right path that leads us from confusion to confusion. Needless to say, there is no silver bullet or a magical jar that eases the road. Adjustment of mutual rights and mutual mistakes is not as difficult as a country where many countries around the world do not see anything. Freemasonry tells us that what we feel about human feelings with different opinions and that it is the feelings of others who have to learn. . How natural is it that the whole body of a man can diligently work for all living, give its property, heal disabled children free of charge? Is not it natural to spend what you gotta himself or punish poor people for the poor? Freemasonry teaches that brothers and sisters are not about self-interests. Rather, it is about someone other than you. If you truly have learned it, it is a lifetime lesson to learn.
If the truth is conveyed, it is very difficult for humans to put faith in other people. When a doctor recommends a specific course of medical practice, we generally need a second opinion. We are seeking a guarantee that he or she is ethical and honest, in particular bonded, before hiring a person who processes money! Masonry does not ask us to leave our common sense at home. Seeking a second opinion, seeking sincere warranty is a cautious act. We prove exactly the truth about the difficulties we believe in others, as they are forced to make sensible behavioral courses. Freemasonry provides you tools to improve that faith through understanding and working for your brothers and sisters.
All the work of brothers and sisters is not conscientious and harmonious. Yarns for freedom exist and are very real in today's society. No matter where the light exists in the world, the darkness is hiding waiting for the opportunity to absorb the light. Destruction and autocracy, the two evils that Masonry has fought over the years, still require technological attention. Where they exist, masonry pens are expected to light them. Blame them. Fear them; to eliminate them as much as possible.
Originally, humans are cruel. But brothers and sisters replace cruelty with justice, compassion and love. Essentially, people enjoy other people suffer. Brothers and sisters construct hospitals, houses for the elderly, clinics for children who need to learn how to speak. History reveals that people kill people for joy and political interests. Not only those who like us but also we look like we, but all men - all men. Fretaniti builds Mason's by advertising the gospel of identity and by providing a network of actions. Mason creates brotherhood love by tracing the footsteps of Abraham and training human brotherhood under the fatherhood of God so that all countries are truly blessed.
