The following paper was received from one of our members, who shall remain anonymous unless we can recall who it was.
One of the first three items, we see at our initiation is the Volume of the Sacred Law or Bible. We are taught that this V.S.L. is to ride and govern our faith, and our rituals are good examples of the way this can be done. Why this Holy or "Set apart from " VSL is chosen is explained to us at any lodge installation ceremony, when one of our well qualified brothers delivers the Charge to the Brethren.
