Random Building Thoughts - 2022-12-14

  

-------------- HUMOR 1 --------------

-------------- MASONIC EDUCATION --------------


-------------- COMMON SENSE --------------

Common Sense Masonry...
You'll Only Attract
High Quality New Members
by Developing High Quality
Within your Current Members.
You'll Never get the Former
without the Latter.

 -------------- COACH'S CHALLENGE --------------

THE COACH'S CHALLENGE

Many Jurisdiction Digests refer to Freemasonry
as a "Religious Organization"
and have thus obtained
this Governmental classification.

Freemasonry has many Symbols
used within its Rituals.
By implication,
would this classification
make these Symbols Religious? 
 

-------------- COMPASSION --------------


"The principle of compassion
is that which converts disillusionment
into a participatory companionship.
This is the basic love,
the charity,
that turns a critic
into a human being
who has something to give to
– as well as to demand of –
the world."
-- Joseph Campbell, Pathways to Bliss

-------------- TRUTH --------------

Don't Fear Speaking your Truth.
Fear that you're Surrounded
by Those who would Kill a Messenger
rather than Deeply Think
about any Message Unwelcome.

-------------- HUMOR 2 --------------

 

Come On?
Admit it!
This is you!

-------------- THIRST --------------

 
(Hat tip to Bro. Shawn D'Ignazio!)

-------------- WAGES --------------

 
FILED UNDER:
The Builder's Wages 
 
"Moreover I make a decree
what ye shall do to the elders of these Jews
for the building of this house of God:
that of the king's goods,
even of the tribute beyond the river,
forthwith expenses be given unto these men,
that they be not hindered.
 
"And that which they have need of,
both young bullocks, and rams, and lambs
,
for the burnt offerings of the God of heaven,
wheat, salt, wine, and oil
,
according to the appointment of the priests
which are at Jerusalem,
let it be given them day by day
without fail:
 
"That they may offer sacrifices of sweet savors
unto the God of heaven,
and pray for the life of the king,
and of his sons."
-- Ezra 6:8-10

-------------- SOUL --------------

Bringing Order to Chaos
One Believing Soul at a Time

-------------- MYTHICAL GLORY DAYS --------------

The Mythical Glory Days
of Freemasonry
have Captured the Hearts
and Minds of men
for Generations.
The Reality of its Practice
has yet to truly Manifest
its first Creation.
Will you be the one
to Cause the Glory
to Occur for Real?

 -------------- PLUG -------------- 

 
  1. For what reason and purpose was Adam created?

  2. If you were told that the original sin
    was not disobedience,
    what steps would you take to find out what it was?

  3. Would you be interested to know that disobedience
    was not the reason for Adam & Eve's eviction?

  4. How did at least one Biblical man make it to Paradise
    by doing what Adam & Eve didn't?
