There has been an inquiry into the historical prayers of the Knights Templars. This is a great subject of our history ,and culture as Templars,and one which needs some exploration. In some cases a simple prayer of Sancti spiritus adsit nobis gratia. Maria, Stella maris, perducat nos ad portam salutis.

Maria, Stella maris, perducat nos ad portam salutis. Amen. would suffice ,but in times of great observance then a more committed ,and dedicated prayer would be in order. Eg: Domine, Jesu Christe, sancte pater, aeterne Deus, omnipotens, sapiens creator, largitor, administrator benignus, et carissimus amator, pius et humilis redemptor, clemens, misericors salvator, Domine, te deprecor humiliter et exoro ut illumines me, liberes et conserves fratres Templi, et omnem populum tuum chistianum turbatum. Tu, Domine, qui scis nos esse innocentes, facias liberari, ut vota nostra et mandata tua in humilitate teneamus, et tuum sanctum servitium et voluntatem faciamus ; contumelias iniquas, non veras, contra nos oppositas per graves oppositiones, et malas tribulationes et tentationes, quas passi fuimus, et pati ulterius non possumus.Omnipotens, aeterne Deus, qui beatum Joannem evangelistam et apostolum tuum valde diligis, qui super pectus tuum in caena recubuit, et cui secreta caeli revelavis et demonstravis, et stante in ligno sanctae crucis, pro redemptione nostra, sanctissimam matrem tuam virginem commendavis, in cujus honore gloriose fuit facta, et fundata religio ; pro tua sancta misericordia liberes et conserves, prout tu scis nos esse innocentes a criminibus contra nos oppositis, et operas possideamus, per quas ad gaudia paradisi perducamur, per Christum dominum nostrum. Amen. TRANSLATION
May the grace of the Holy Spirit be present with us. May Mary, Star of the Sea, lead us to the harbor of salvation. Amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, Holy Father, eternal God, omnipotent, omniscient Creator, Bestower, kind Ruler and most tender lover, pious and humble Redeemer; gentle, merciful Savior, Lord! I humbly beseech The and implore Thee that Thou may enlighten me, free me and preserve the brothers of the Temple and all Thy Christian people, troubled as they are.
Thou, O Lord, Who knowest that we are innocent, set us free that we may keep our vows and your commandments in humility, and serve Thee and act according to Thy will. (Dispel) all those unjust reproaches, far from the truth, heaped upon us by the means of tough adversities, great tribulations and temptations, which we have endured, but can endure no longer.

After Sir Thomas recovered the Spear of Destiny and returned it to the Pope at the Vatican in Rome, he remained there for several months serving His Excellency, attending meetings, and recovering from several minor injuries sustained while recapturing the Spear that pierced the side of Jesus the Messiah. Sir Thomas could have stayed as a guest of the pope in one of their lush suites, but he chose the bare walls of a guest bedroom at the local Knights Templar castle. The pope then called upon him for his next assignment: Leave Rome immediately, by boat, again, back to Constantinople. “Head off a Scot by the name of Sir Robert Bruce, whom our intel indicates has a map and is currently on his way in search for the Holy Grail. Sir Robert is a stubborn ally. You will help Sir Robert, but convince him that the chalice of Jesus belongs here in Rome.”
Prior to shoving off the west coast of Italy, a few miles from Rome, Sir Thomas wrote the following message, and placed it in a bottle.
______________________________________________________________
A.D. 1301
My dear sweet wife and babe within her womb
The five long years since I had lost you both
I prayed for inner peace despite my joy
You're both in heaven; worship Thee Most High
Because your love exceeds all life itself
My lips will glorify you ever more
I praise you for the rest; my living days
Your name I lift on high with my bare hands
Was on my bed that I remember you
I think of you the watches of the night
The shadow of your wings I cling my soul
The depths of which my sword shall honor thee
I yearn affections taste where two come one
The seed by faith that yields abundant life
Endures celestial kingdom's perfect place
It brings this missive to its endless oath:
To bless, release my restless heart that bleeds
Commit my swords allegiance to the Lord
To you Dagung the earth is smaller still
For every inch be searched to see your face
You disappeared, not dead but still alive
I feel the transom temper my resolve
For in this ship another search begins
The Holy Grail; Dagung I'll find you both
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Postscript
I toss the bottle through the wind to stormy sea
Inside the missive of a knight in love with thee

I don't know about all of you ,but this looks like it's going to be amazing. I mean......you have to love that tag line "see how their miters covers their horns" . I can't hardly wait to see it. Epic!

Give the oath to protect God and the church.
Such swords are adorned with gems,
Blessed only by God,
Which glows with a testament of honor.

Innocence and purity,

Yet, after eight hundred years,
Their silence still reigns.
The rumors of their escape,
To distant lands is true.
God blessed the knight's templars.
They kept their oath.
They kept their promise.
One thing is very true,
Treasured documents, Gold, and the chalice,
Has never been found.
I would like to think the heart and soul,
Of the templars resides in heaven,
Protecting the one person that,
They vowed to never leave or betray.

We use a lot of Latin here at the O.M.S.D.T. So I thought perhaps a basic Latin understanding would be great for some of us. It's a 73 video course so it's pretty cumbersome . I won't lie to you..........it's a challenge ,and a whole lot of work. I previewed a couple videos before I decided on this series ,so it appears to be fairly informative ,and concise.

If you have a few minutes every day maybe learning some Latin would be pretty cool for you? I've screened dozens of courses ,and this one seems complete. I speak a tiny modicum of Spanish so I have "some" background in verb placement ,and sentence structure. That's really the hard part .Knowing how the pieces fit.

Good morning Brothers ,and Sisters. It's going to be a wonderful day. May God bless each ,and every one of you. May you find peace today ,and I pray all your problems find solutions. I "think" that sometimes maybe we are tested as Job was. In a smaller way of course. But now ,no matter how big ,or small .....the outcome is always the same isn't it ? Did you make it through it loving the Lord while keeping His commandments? If it's not a test then there are times it feels like a pop quiz.... moreGood morning Brothers ,and Sisters.

I "think" that sometimes maybe we are tested as Job was. In a smaller way of course. But now ,no matter how big ,or small .....the outcome is always the same isn't it ? Did you make it through it loving the Lord while keeping His commandments? If it's not a test then there are times it feels like a pop quiz. don't it? We all have problems. If there is one thing I have always been able to count on one hundred percent it's hard times. Hard times will be there when everything else leaves you. They're loyal ,and consistent them hard times are. But .......ya know, it's a perfect beautiful day today. My grandma told me an old Appalachian story about two frogs falling in a butter churn. One gave up ,and drowned ,while the other one kept kicking until he finally churned up a little pat of butter to sit on................keep kickin' little frog. Keep kickin'. Whatever we go through it's for a greater good. A greater cause. We strengthen ourselves each time. I just know a lot of you have serious things going on. I woke up this morning thinking of some of my fellow Priory members that's going through struggle ,and physical pain. Those going through mental pain. I wish I could just hug everybody's neck ,and tell 'em Jesus loves you. It's going to be what it is ,but there will be peace ,and healing soon I promise. Once the Lord takes you where you need to be ,and you see what you need to see it becomes easier. I hope your personal endurance is short ,and profoundly ,abundantly blessed. We endure. We learn. We grow . We praise His holy name. I felt it important today to bring an opinion of hope ,a message of love ,and glory to my God Almighty. God bless this holy Order, it's leaders ,and it's members. I'll jump back in my history box now ,and bring y'all a post of days gone by ,but I just wanted to say I love each of you ,and most importantly God loves each of you. It's going to be a beautiful day ! Whatever you do today Templars ,be blessed. Deus Vult!

When the modern scientific outlook says wait a tic. This new discovery just proved God. What can they do? How will they spin doctor this one? The biology is 100% correct. . Biologist have worked with Kinesin motor proteins for decades now. Doctors regularly add a regiment of ATP in motor neuron repair . Any tri phosphate ,or serially bonded phosphate groups can form with nitrogenous base (adenine), and a ribose sugar to form nucleoside triphosphate. Doctors give you these ingredients in pill form with some pharmaceutical branding like Gene Formula's Strawberry Flavored NAD. We know the how. We just don't know the why. Now we have the look into life itself, and it's with irrefutable proof that something Divine is at work here. It becomes crystal clear it's the work of the Creator. Mere evolution just cannot be this smart ,and adaptable. When we see the construct of life just creating what it needs to on a level so complex it boggles the modern mind ,and it does so ........... just because it can. Also it does it in a way so wonderfully odd yet familiar it's almost scary. Like the video says........it challenges evolution . I think it does so in a well executed ,over the top smart person way. It's most definitely a jaw dropper.
