7 May 1870
O you want to know what the Freemasons are nowadays?Then just look at the present ceremonial of the ChristianChurch. Look, it stands only for appearance, and this is alsothe case with the present Freemasons. Their emphasis is onempty ceremonies and phrases. They only pretend to help mankind, foralthough they have had kings and emperors and other eminentpersonages as their members, you can see from the behavior of thesame how far the rights of mankind had been their paramount concern.What I once said to the Essenes, namely that they should donothing secretly, but should do everything openly, should also be saidto these present Freemasons. Their principle is: The human rights of equality. All are supposed to be “brothers”. Indeed, this is what theywere and are. But only in the Lodge proper: outside of it all equalityceases and the king is again king and the impecunious compared to hima nonentity, since he is only used as a means to an end.Do you know what freemasonry should actually be? Evenaccording to the articles of the present society, nothing else but therepresentation of the enactment of My second commandment, of neighborly love!How beautiful and elevating it would be if they all were in thissense Freemasons; however, not only in their assemblies, but duringthe whole course of their life, and very much would have been gainedfor My Kingdom. However, as long as they merely adhere toceremonies, these are for the most part, like church ceremonies, anempty show behind which far higher things are hidden. And so thepresent members taking part in these ceremonies, knowing nothing of the actual reason, have hardly ever acted according to it.So you too, be Freemasons, however in the noblest sense of theword! Help the poor, who are your brothers. Whatever you do, do it asif in the sight of all, openly although you act in secret, for it sufficesthat you need not be ashamed in the presence of My all-seeing eyes,and do not bother with the other things!
