The Gavel Of Authority V9N7

June 12, 2023

Brethren, this Short Talk Bulletin Podcast episode is by an unknown author, and is brought to us by RW Bro Dex Rowe, PDDGM 9th – VT. The common gavel is an instrument made use of by operative Masons to break off the corners of rough stones, the better to fit them for the builder’s use. But we, as free and accepted Masons, are taught to use it for the more noble and glorious purpose of divesting our hearts and consciences of all the vices and superfluities of life, thereby fitting our minds as living stones for that spiritual building, that house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. Here we find an excellent discussion of this working tool, and it’s application to our own journey. Enjoy, and do share this and all of these Podcast episodes with your brothers and your Lodge.
