The Masonic Belief
There is one God, The Father of all men.
The Holy Bible is the Great Light in Masonry, and
the Rule and Guide for faith and practice.
Man is immortal.
Character determines destiny.
Love of man is, next to love of God, man’s first duty.
Prayer, communion of man with God, is helpful.
Recognizing the impossibility of confining the teaching
of Masonry to any fixed forms of expression, yet acknowledging
the value of authoritative statements of fundamental principles
the following is proclaimed as;

The Masonic Teaching
Masonry teaches man to practice charity and benevolence,
to protect chastity, to respect the ties of blood and friendship,
to adopt the principles and revere the ordinances of religion,
to assist the feeble, guide the blind, raise up the downtrodden,
shelter the orphan, guard the alter, support the Government,
inculcate morality, promote learning, love of man, fear God,
implore His mercy and hope for happiness.
