Thanks for putting that out there, Bro. Bill. I was having a hard time deciding how to put it and decided I would just give it up to a pro like you...lol

Anyone know of a good source to get either older versions of the Texas cipher book, or even old or new versions from different states? Just to have and see what all is different?

I skipped a fair bit of the thread, sorry.
Just one EA's opinion. Any intelligent man can find sources and easily obtain them, they are readily available.
I learn very quickly sitting with a Brother, and develop a relationship at the same time. Its fun. If I didn't think there were wisdom in doing it orally, in preserving mysteries until they were revealed, then I have a tough time understanding why I'd want to do all this. I can research anything. I'd have a shared experience with the greybeards, its worthwhile. Part of the bond, no? You reach back into history and time that way too.
Sorry to ramble

I have one but it is to learn the questions so I can teach. Do I really need it? No, but it can help sometimes.

As someone who has received instruction from you, utilize our Brethren instead of a book. Not that I am vehemently against use of a book for instructing and calling it "memory work."

Brother Bill_Lins77488, I find myself abbreviated and symbolized all over. It's really becoming unsightly. But, at my age ...

Naw- he's like Santa. He knows when you are sleeping... :wink:
