The Asking, the Search, the Knock, the Travel ... "Remember"

God said, Let there be light; he willed it, and at once there was light. Oh, the power of the word of God! And in the new creation, the first thing that is wrought in the soul is light: the blessed Spirit works upon the will and affections by enlightening the understanding.

Emmanuel, "God with us," delivers to the mind a few verses in Matthew (28:17-20): When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

To define our craft, a well found truth..."we admit that it is not in the power of any man, or body of men, to make innovations in the body of Masonry."

The Mysteries

  These Mysteries were formerly taught, we are told, "on the highest hills and in the lowest vales," which is  for saying, first, that they have been taught in circumstances of the greatest seclusion and secrecy, and secondly, that these have been taught in both advanced and simple forms according to the understanding of the crafts disciples. This is common knowledge that great secret systems of the Mysteries  as "noble orders of architecture," of soul-building  amongst the Hebrews.

  Understanding as the Great Master of Truth enjoined, until it be risen from the grave in our hearts we are to tell the vision of faith to all man whilst following the same instruction, Masonry directs us to guard our secrets in the heart’s safe and sacred repository of a faithful breast.
