I It is very essential, therefore, that in a proburial way there should be a goad foundation. Evidently they a were not, long ago, good builders and we have all learned with great sad- • mesa bow St. Paul's Cathedral might have collapsed because its foundations were uncertain. rlhere were some - people after the Great War who were afraid of the British Empiro'e fours - dations becoming shaken. ,Even the churc1 did not escape the shaking of `thing during the war. All the dif- farentt reli;gi'sus-2 odiea-IasgOn . tolook to their foundations. Masonic •rusts- . tutiono were also shaken during the war and since that time we have been inquiring into our foundations of the Masonic order. I want to talk to, you about the foundations of Masonry. tlf they are not strong - enough, then it would be better for Ira to dig deeper. The first • foundation fact of Masonry is the he,. lief in a Supreme Being. There have. been many scholars who have esdea vored to define the ranelent landmarks of Masonry. Some say there are fit'. ,teen; others claim there are thirty, but there are one or two landmarks -in which nearly every one believes, and the first is, belief in a Supreme Being. There can be no .Masonic institution' without belief in God: The Atheist can find no .ream for him. The first question that a candidate for Masonry• is asked is "Does he believe in a Supreme Being. and does he believe that God is a rewarder of good and a punisher of evil." A candidate is questioned about his attitude toward God. Every Mason is taught to stand in the presence of his Maker. The initial letter of the Deity hangs in our lodge rooms Where God mast be honored and given the cen- tral place and this is the most ancient of - our landmarks, it cannot' be re- moved,: and if i,t is removed the insti- tution ceases for be .Masonic. The very basis o£ Masonry is an obligation to the Almighty God: He is not a finite crippled sort of being, neither does he take no interest in what we are doing. Masonry be- lieves in the omnip'tsence of God, that. he created the heavens and man, that he holds thewindsand has influence over the seas, I tell you, my friends, that a -g eat God makes a great peo- ple, .and just as soon as you depart from Him then at that moment you become as petty as the one you be- lieve in. The second foundation lies in the worth of man. When a candidate asks for admission into the Order, he may be a millionaire, or he may be a poor man but that does not 'go against him; he may bea. scholar but that does not recommend him. , Masonry values man' for himself. For it is nth ` • the erior, that makes him valued in. Masonry; not for what he is, nor where he came from nor the length of his bank roll, nor his pedigree. All you, my broth- ers. know the circumstances under which' he . comet; into. Masonry, . that. he must be weighed for his . person- ality alone. • Christ made personality the core in the heart of iris teaching.
