Why Templars?
REASONS FOR THE ORDRE DU TEMPLE DE JÉRUSALEM (The Knights Templar)
WE EXIST TODAY TO:
Ꚛ To spread the light of Christ in an increasingly dark world. Today's Templars are faced with a spiritual battle instead of a physical one.
Ꚛ To practice works of mercy, charity and benevolence.
Ꚛ To act as a force to unify all Christians - Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant - under the one banner of Christ. Today, Christians are under attack by extraordinarily powerful enemies.
Jesus prayed to the Father:
"That they may be all be one : so that the world will believe that You sent me."
(see St John's Gospel: Chapter 17, verses 20-21)
Benjamin Franklin said, "We must all hang together, or assuredly, we shall all hang separately."
Ꚛ To perpetuate the traditions of the Knights Templar by defending
Christendom through non-violent means, such as supporting persecuted Christian populations across the world.
Ꚛ To live a life of Chivalry and hold each other accountable to a lifestyle of excellence.
Ꚛ To promote historical studies, heraldry and the genealogy of the Order.
Ꚛ To promote, through the values of friendship, loyalty and respect, feelings of universal brother- and sister-hood and ideals of solidarity between all people.
Non Nobis, Domine, Non Nobis,
Sed Nomini Tuo Da Gloriam
