    Masonic Esotericism

    If it is in code it will not be found in the monitor. Whatever is in the monitor is fair game to the public and can be talked or wrote about.

    Why the change..?

    In the WWW we must be on our toes and ready for change a t a moments notice. (insert emodican)

    Do we focus too much on charity?

    Perfectly said charity grows out of the Mason as a by-product of the teachings or seed Masonry provides us.

    Does Purgatory Exist?

    Rock on Brother Jones if we could all be that stead fast in our faith. You came with some great answers on the spot as well. I admire you for your passion and zeal. I am not one to believe that hell is eternal but the great thing about it is we can meet on the level and better discover how to...

    Does Purgatory Exist?

    Well that pretty much clears that up. If you are cast to this place is there hope of ever coming out? And if so how would one do that?

    Do we focus too much on charity?

    Dude do not make me moderate you. This is not what was said at GL. The bill that passed states us as charitable and prior to this passing they had the option to exempt us, now with this bill the city has to relief the taxes all we have to do is file the form every 3 or 4 years I forgot which...

    Does Purgatory Exist?

    Very good stuff but I am still a little confused on where non-believers or people who produce poor work go? If ones work is of straw and is burnt up and no reward given what happens to the person or their soul?

    Do we focus too much on charity?

    Re: Too Charitable? It seems to me we should expect more from our dues than just scholarships and light bills paid. I wonder why a lodge would not buy a projector and popcorn machine for family movie nights or bring a friend movie night at Lodge projected on the wall. Why would a lodge not...

    New Mason's program

    We will need verification but I would not be surprised if I am wrong would not be the first time. This is how I have seen even the eldest do it in my lodge and was taught to recognize titles top down. Now I hope I was not implying the WM was not in charge b/c he is the Sun and Moon when the...

    Does Purgatory Exist?

    I am not one that believes God would cast any of his children to eternal damnation. I do think he can put you in purgatory but leaves you with the ability to work your way out. I am curious if there is no purgatory in Baptist and what seems many other denominations then what is there? I hope...

    New Mason's program

    The ALL and LIFE program are very similar in nature to what you have described and would make a good base for this project. A few of us at 148 have had the idea of taking the ALL and LIFE and "beefing" it up or modernizing it if you will. We then want to take it a step further and place this...

    New Mason's program

    If your current DDGM is at your Lodge that is just as good as the GM so you do refer to him as Right Worshipful and the proper protocol is most important title down and since the DDGM holds the highest title you would say "RW, WM, Wardens and my brethren" When giving introductions I do give...
