The Secret Teachings Of Freemasonry – Freemason Education

July 29th, 2009

There are several individuals who are interested in becoming a Mason but just aren?t sure how to go about it. To begin with, they must first reach the criteria that they set out. This means that they must be sound in mind and body. This is the term used from the old day and is not literal as it applied to the current Freemasons. Then they must of course be male. He must have a good background and a belief in God. (This is dependant on the Lodge, some say God other say Supreme Being). There are several informal requirements as well. The candidate?s personal beliefs are important . He must believe in the importance of helping his fellow man. Must have a respect for what others think whether he agrees with them or not. Finally, he must have the desire to excel in his good qualities.

It would seem that one of the rules of being a Mason is that you are not allowed to ask others to join. There is no recruiting for this Fraternity. They stipulate they have reasons for this and that is because being a Mason is a new way of life that should not be pushed upon another. It must be a voluntary act. They feel that recruiting would be pressuring. If one wants to attempt at joining he must ask for an application. It gets filled out then given to a Mason who will present it to his Lodge.

Then the Master of the Lodge arranges for a group of members to visit the applicant and his family to learn about his background and his reasons for wanting to become a Mason. This information is then taken back to the lodge where a vote takes place on whether to accept the applicant. It he has received a positive vote then he will be notified as to a date for the entered apprentice degree. He now will have two other degrees to complete after this one, which will take him to the position of Master mason.

If you were to ask a Mason to define himself, he would tell you that his priority is to feel good about himself. He cares about all facets of time being past, present, and future. His goal is to make the world a better place to live in. This seems to be a never-ending journey so when does the Mason get to come to feel he truly is a Mason. It would seem that when he reaches the point that he can enjoy all that the world contains and accepts that he is only a small part of the scheme of the world and as accepted all that the Masons stand for then he can truly call himself a Mason.

It would seem that the Masons whole belief is becoming the perfect man. It is an ongoing challenge that they strive towards everyday. One wonders if they believe that it?s possible for man to reach that point, and if so, has there ever been such a being in their organization that has accomplished this. Would they place their Grand Master as such a person?

Becoming A Freemason – Mason Rituals & Education

July 29th, 2009

If an individual has had an interest in learning just what the Masons are all about no doubt they are as confused after reading the material as they were before it. Although there are huge discrepancies as to what the Freemasons stand for and believe, you will find that the majority of Masons will tell you that their purpose is for the betterment of themselves. Now the theory is that you must be a man of good standing to enter into the Masons to begin with. It is then purported that you good characteristics must continue to be nurtured and grow it would seem to the level of perfection. So is this what it means when a man is truly a mason? Has he reached perfection in the societies eyes?

If you look at the comments that have been made as to the desire of the average mason it would almost seem so.

-They must possess faith hope and courage, yet realize they are insignificant in the scope of the entire universe.

-he must believe that every man is as good as he is yet alone. He must aspire to love his fellowman.

- He must have compassion for the wrongdoings of others by way of forgiveness.

-the Mason must aspire to make and retain friends. He must like himself and feel the joys of the world.

-he must arise above the wiles of the world.

-he must always be willing to lend a hand to those in need.

-The Freemason must be able to look beyond the sin that is in every man.

-He must be willing to stand for good and not be afraid to lay his life on this concept meaning no fear of death.

If one were to look over all of these aspirations then one would have to realistically realize that these are the desires of all moral human beings that want the best in life. It would seem that it would not take a secret Society to hone these types of attributes. Based on these beliefs would it not seem logical that the Freemasons would want to reach out to those in the world that are non-Masons to encourage these types of morals. Yet it is well known that the Freemasons do not recruit. Perhaps they believe that if a man willingly comes to them then he has set his heart upon the right goals. Again another aspect of the Freemasons that leaves one open to conjecture and speculation.

This seems to be the normal trend when it comes to discerning and understanding the Masons. Most likely in many cases those non-Masons who are truly interested in understanding them give up because of the mass confusion. It would seem though that the Freemasons are masters on playing on words. This is perhaps based on their conception of keeping the history of the Freemasons alive. Just as they use their symbols in a symbolic way, it is evident that their speech when describing themselves is symbolic as well. This makes it most difficult to determine what is mean literally and what is simply a metaphor.

The Plumbing Job

July 29th, 2009

Contrary to all beliefs, a plumber is not just a professional who gets under a sink and clears a clogged pipe. Instead, a plumber also specializes in planning, installing, and maintaining an entire plumbing system in a house.

Though in an average house, a plumber is usually called when a pipe leaks or a drain is clogged. However, a plumber is capable of doing a large variety of plumbing jobs. For example, a plumber has the expertise to plan and install new bathroom set up or even an entire water, heating and waste transportation system.

Offices, schools, hospitals, office complexes, etc. are the places where a plumber is involved in installing plumbing systems. A small house or a residential apartment is not just the places where his plumbing services are limited to. Their work sometimes also overlaps into other specialized areas such as roofing.

For example, while constructing a roof, a plumbers services can be hired to install a safe and economical storage and transit of water, waste and sometimes ever gases. Moreover, a plumber job does not begin and end by fixing the damage and leaving the scene. A plumber has to do meticulous planning on the network of pipes he is going to lay down in a building.

Sizes and types of material are chosen, specifications are examined, locations are worked out, and finally the materials are assembled, joined and checked. Once these activities are done, a plumber begins his work to install the systems. Plumber is also an important player along with other players in making a building function properly.

The plumbing need in a house or in an office determines what type of plumbing services should be hired. If the plumbing is required in a residential house or an apartment, then the appropriate plumber should be hired who specializes in repairing plumbing systems in a house.

Before a plumber is hired, a detailed research should be done. There is no point regretting after you a have hired an inefficient or costly plumber whose output is of terrible quality. You can find a suitable plumber, the services provided and to some extent, even their charges by doing a quick search in the local directory.

Trainings undertaken in the plumbing industry along with appropriate certifications can be the criteria to select a suitable plumber. Before hiring their services, one should always check their certifications and the authenticity of their trainings.

Check Your Gutters Periodically

July 28th, 2009

Gutters are probably one of the neglected aspects of the home. But, efficient working of the home gutters is very important. Their improper functioning can cause big troubles for your home.

One of the biggest contributors to basement dampness is uncontrolled rainwater that is allowed to flow unchecked off a roof. If your gutters are old, broken or sagging, water will pour off the roof and saturate the ground below, potentially seeping into the basement and creating a breeding ground for mold and mildew.

Proper installation of the home gutters is very important, otherwise the exterior walls of your home can be damaged by the unchecked water runoff. Therefore, gutters should be up near the top of the home improvement list of things that need to be done.

Markets are flooded with a wide variety of gutter materials that can be used for home purpose. But, the most basic ones are: vinyl, aluminum, copper and galvanized steel.

Aluminum gutters are durable, weather resistant, and inexpensive with easy installation process but require a little more maintenance as compared to others. They also come as a seamless system, which has much less chances of leaks. Similarly, vinyl gutters are tough, economical, weather resistant and easy to install and requires very little maintenance efforts. They can be found in many different colors now days.

Steel (galvanized) gutters are the strongest. They are also less affected by temperature fluctuations, but they are more prone to rusting so needs to be repainted regularly for protection. Copper gutters are expensive but offers great value. It is extremely durable; it does not corrode and requires very little.

Gutter guards or (gutter covers) are available in the market these days. These help to prevent debris and other material to enter the gutters and thus help preventing clogging issues. These handy products may just save your system and save you a lot of money in the long run.

No matter what material you use for your gutter, they need to be checked periodically to ensure theyre working properly and it is also very important for a healthy home.

Roofing Tips

July 28th, 2009

It is of supreme pertinence to give a lot of attention to your house roof. Having a roof over your head is not just enough. You also need to take care to preserve it as per changing weather conditions. It should be well suited to all kind of season rainy, summers or the winters

Also, it is of prime importance to catch early signs of roof defects to protect it from sudden changes in weather. This should be looked into to avoid last minute roofing repair issues and too much of expenditure.

The reason for which you should be having great amount of roofing knowledge is ” one should know when your roof is showing signs of a wilt. For this, you should consult a trusted roofing contractor. His help will lead you to effective costs and efforts.

You could keep in mind a few grainy tips- First of all, you should try opting for a roof that stays insulated and keeps the warm air trapped inside. It is also extremely important to maintain good seals in your roof, especially if small holes and spots bog down your roof. Special care should be given in the rainy season.

Having said all this, we must understand that it isnt easy to upkeep maintenance of the roofs that is overseen by roofing contractors. At our own end, it needs to be ensured from time to time that we are taking special care of our roofs.

Another thing to bear in mind at all times- it is very important to keep oneself familiarized with early signs of roof wilting. If you feel that your roof is going in for some premature ageing and cracking, then its just the right time to get your roof repaired mildly before its too late.

Now as opposed to this, if you are not able to detect these signs, you will have to go in for major roofing repairs later, and probably even a complete replacement of your roof which will not be a good option.

So, one should choose the roofing material as per the changing climatic conditions to well protect their homes.

Roof Replacement Versus Roof Repair

July 27th, 2009

The roof of your house needs constant maintenance and care as it is constantly exposed to the changing weather conditions. So, it can undergo serious damage at any point through out its lifetime. Roof repair or roof replacement are required depending upon the condition of your roof at that time.

Roofs are the most essential part of the home. It protects us and thus it is our duty to protect it as well and taking timely actions is very important in this regard. So here are some scenarios that will help you to decide whether to go for roof repair or roof replacement.

Some early signs of weakening roofs are : stains on the ceiling, discoloration, flaking paint, peeling wall-paper etc. Before they cause some serious damage to your roof, take appropriate steps.

Causes like small holes can be patched up, while cracks in shingles cannot be. Whatever the cause, never wait, hire a professional to determine how much the repair and treatment costs will be, and how long your roof will live once complete. If it does not exceed the cost of a new roof, and will survive at least its original life cycle, then repair. If not, install a new roof.

Every roofing type requires regular maintenance, though the levels of maintenance can vary. For example, shingled roof require annual and semi-annual inspections others, such as PVC roofing, require next to no maintenance at all.

Knowing about the material covering your roof will help you in deciding whether or not it is worth repairing or replacing it, and give you an idea of your expected new roof cost versus repair, and new roof costs versus maintenance of existing.

How old is your roof is one big factor to consider. The average age of any roofing type is about 15 years, so if your roof is under 15 years, get it repaired otherwise get it replaced.

It is always advisable to hire a skilled professional roofer to get your roof repaired or replaced because these jobs require great skills and needed to be handled very carefully other wise can lead to major damages later on.

Does Christianity Share The Same Beliefs As Freemasonry?

July 27th, 2009

It?s quite well known that the much of the negativity that is shown towards the Freemasons is based on what is believed to be their secrecy. It would seem with all of the books and materials that have been published over the years there couldn’t possibly be any secrets left unturned if there were some in the first place. Others state that because the secrecy is the priority of the Masons what goes on has never been really released. The Masons look at the fact of keeping their rituals a secret as a bond and not some sinister act. Pro Masons will tell you there are no blood oaths or ceremonies that take place amongst the Masons and certainly no physical violence.

Anti Masons who refer to violence by way of punishment within the Mason walls have been said to glean their information from historical data of the Masons. This is not to say that the Masons of the 1700?s were party to violent acts either. It is said that their references from those days in regards to punishment was purely symbolic.

So where does the speculation come in that a Christian because of his beliefs could never become a Mason? It is based on the fact that the Freemasons state they allow all religions to enter their group. It is known that not all religious groups believe in Christ in the same way that the Christians do. The Christians believe that if they do not accept Christ as their way to get into heaven then there is no other way. Other religions do not abide by this. So how could a Christian become part of this organization that says a member must believe in a ?Superior Being??

The argument goes further. If there are Christians amongst the Masons that have the Christian belief then they are amongst those who they call their brothers that are non-Christian.

In addition to all of this the Freemasons also lays out a plan of salvation, which is depicted, with their ritual of the Common Gavel. It is said by some that this ritual is directed towards those who do not believe in Christ.

Therefore, what is believed to be the actual stand that the Freemasons have on religion. It is indicated that the Lodges have one main deity called the ?The Great Architect of the Universe?. In the lodge, all members must pray to this deity. They supposedly have a ritual that is based on the afterlife called the ?slaying and raising of Hiram Abif, who is know to be the Hero of the Masons.

The argument based on actions such as this would raise a better question as to what do Freemasons constitute as a religion if they do not consider themselves as such. In answer to this, some will say they do not have all of the constitution of what constitutes religion. They are referring to no creed, no claim to faith or doctrine, no theory and no worship regimes. They have no religious symbols such as those found in other religions. They raise no money for religion.

It is well known and that the Freemasons date back to at least the 1700?s and most likely even further than that. In those days, it was simply a gathering of stonemasons that enjoyed each other?s fellowship. It grew over the years as to what we now know as the Freemasons. It would seem more emphasis is placed on the fellowship as opposed to the literal sense of the trade of masonry.
