The Holy Grail of What the Brotherhood of Freemasonry means to me by Guillermo Olivo.
The fatherhood of God & brotherhood of man
(Matthew 6:18 Translated) That your seeking God's will may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. (Replace Fast with seeking God's will because the meaning of Fast in the bible means will help us grow a more intimate relationship with seeking God's will.)
Psalm 133:1 "Behold, how good and pleasant it is when the Brotherhood dwell in unity!"
This is about the oath of truth and reason that we took to recognize each other to love your brother as yourself and the first commandment of love is for the Great Architect or Supreme Being, the father, the head of the family that unites all men of any Faith to learn the importance of the symbolic lessons which can be learned from the building of King Solomon's Temple.
When the Solomon Temple was completed with such perfection at its finest that it had more the appearance of the handy-work of the Supreme Architect of the Universe than of human hands.” The Solomon Temple was dedicated to Yahweh.
"In the place of the concept of Yahweh, the racial deity, he introduced the idea of the fatherhood of God and the world-wide brotherhood of man. He exalted the Yahweh concept of a deified racial Father to the idea of a Father of all the children of men, a divine Father of the individual believer. And he further taught that this God of universes and this Father of all men were one and the same Paradise Deity." ~ The Urantia Book, (169:4.8)
The fatherhood of God & brotherhood of man
"You become conscious of man as your creature brother because you are already conscious of God as your Creator Father. Fatherhood is the relationship out of which we reason ourselves into the recognition of brotherhood. And Fatherhood becomes, or may become, a universe reality to all moral creatures because the Father has himself bestowed personality upon all such beings and has encircuited them within the grasp of the universal personality circuit. We worship God, first, because he is, then, because he is in us, and last, because we are in him." ~ The Urantia Book, (16:9.10)
As Francis Bacon was inspired by Plato work on Atlantis. "The New Atlantis" was Bacons' vision for a new "Golden Age", and it became the inspiration for many Freemason, Rosicrucians and influential American colonists that came to America.
Philadelphia = Brotherly Love affection would invariably manifest itself in unselfish and loving social service that treat everyone equally with the belief of equal rights which makes Democracy.
The Declaration of Independence meeting took place at the Pennsylvania State House (Independence Hall) in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776.
The Constitutional Convention took place from May 25 to September 17, 1787, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Boston had the backbone of courage and bravery but my Brotherhood & Rosicrucian had the dream for The New Democracy of the Ages or The New Order of the Ages and had the strength to put the wishes of others before their own.
The Founding Fathers had hardship in there heart because of slavery but they knew that the words of the Constitution will one day free them. This is one reason George Washington would not break bread with hypocrites during communion because of the great sin he made in conceding to violate the core American Revolutionary ideal of liberty in order to unite the county. The Great Architect give me an easy course and favor my daring undertakings for Democracy.
Declaration of Independence and the Constitution are an Exoteric wisdom from the fatherhood of God & brotherhood of Man that manifest itself as the Divinity of Democracy because of brotherly Love affection would invariably manifest itself in unselfish and loving social service that treat everyone equally with the belief of equal rights. This is Exoteric wisdom from Thomas Jefferson a Rosicrucian; We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Freemason is the Esoteric discovery within the human identity of the Brotherly Love affection which is the brotherhood.
The Eye of Providence symbol have a single eye encompassed by a triangle on top of the pyramid that represent the United States change the meaning of the Single Eye Triangle to the Divinity of Democracy instead of The fatherhood of God & brotherhood of man (Trinity). This is what the Eye of Providence mean (The divinity of Democracy will never be laid to rest and may the United States endure forever as a base for Democracy by the watchful eye of God)
The cornerstone of the pyramid have Roman numerals 1776 representing The Declaration of Independence which is The cornerstone of the United States of America.
The Pyramids represent the United States the base of democracy which means United States endure forever like the pyramids of Egypt.
Symbol of a single eye encompassed by a triangle represents The fatherhood of God & brotherhood of Man that manifest itself as the Divinity of Democracy because of brotherly Love affection would invariably manifest itself in unselfish and loving social service that treat everyone equally with the belief of equal rights which makes Democracy. Single Eye triangle means democracy when is on top of the pyramid of the United States. When the pyramid is not there the Single Eye Triangle represent the Trinity or The fatherhood of God & brotherhood of man.
The Divinity of Democracy is hovering on top of the pyramid because The quest for democracy will never go to Rest or Stop; Democracy is a Eternal struggle that will never be completed so the pyramid will never be perfect or complete.
The rest of the seals meaning of the Eye of Providence.
The Eye of Providence meaning = (The divinity of Democracy will never be laid to rest and may the United States endure forever as a base for Democracy by the watchful eye of God)
Annuit Cœptis meaning = The Great Architect give me an easy course and favor my daring undertakings for Democracy.
Novus Ordo Seclorum meaning = The new order of the Ages = The New Democracy of the Ages = 1776
Liberty. This is an idea always associated with St. Paul's description of sonship. The son is no longer the child "under guardians and stewards," who "differeth nothing from a bond-servant." He is a free man enjoying the confidence of his father because the mind and will of God are revealed; they are free from restraints of formal Law; they are put in positions of trust.
The picture above Single Eye Triangle represent The fatherhood of God & brotherhood of man. Psalm 133:1 "Behold, how good and pleasant it is when the Brotherhood dwell in unity!"
The left-most leg of the compasses being on top of the square and the right-most leg being under the square. This refers to the Plumbline which represents uprightness of conduct throughout one's life. The Fellow Craft degree denotes middle age.
The quality of brotherly affection would invariably manifest itself in unselfish and loving social service.
Brotherhood understanding of the secret of life.
Ecclesiastes, Chapter 12 (Translated the Concept of the chapter)
We must remember that our ending is the same as our beginning.
The one treasure in life that cannot be taken away from aging or dying.
If you have lived your life properly, old age is no longer "the evil days", but becomes instead, reminiscent of the harvest...the love, the friendships, the experiences and the fond memories...
...the true cornucopia of receiving the "plenty".
By Guillermo Olivo meaning Guardian of the Olive Tree
