A Brother Asks: Affirming God's Presence

A Brother Asks: Where does Ritual affirm the presence of God?

Coach: Among many other places, Masonic Obligations affirm that the Presence of God is honored and acknowledged within the Lodge.

Brother: What does this do for the Brothers in attendance?

Coach: Hearing this stated each time a degree occurs, openly and without reservation or equivocation, is an awesome confirmation that all those members attending are professing through their actions that they are in the presence of  like minded, like-hearted and like-spirited Brothers.

Brother: What more does it do?

Coach: It affirms too that attending Brothers earnestly believe that God is part of Lodge activities, can't possibly not be present within the Lodge and is a powerfully active aspect within their lives.

All this makes the Lodge a very special place; truly a Sanctum Sanctorum!  Wouldn't you agree?

Brother: Yes.  I do!

Coach: This is also one of many reasons belief in God is required to join the Freemasonic Order.
