The Commandery orders represent a new direction of Masonic thought and experience, in that they no longer refer to Ancient Craft Masonry, but to ideals and practices of chivalry and Christianity. The first Commandery order, the Illustrious Order of the Red Cross, presents the story of the Jewish Prince, Zerubbabel, and his efforts to secure permission of the Persian King Darius to rebuild the second temple at Jerusalem. The next order, Knight of Malta, is a complete departure from Masonry based on the Old Testament and is the first Christian order. Here, the candidate represents a knightly warrior of the Crusades prior to his departure for the Holy Land. The last order is that of Knight Templar, the crowning glory of the York Rite system. Again, in this totally Christian order, the candidate represents a knightly postulant who desires to unite with a Commandery of Knights Templar during the era of the Crusades. After several trials to test his faith, courage, and humility, he is rewarded by achieving his desire. Let us consider these orders in more detail.

I think everything posted made a ton of sense. But, what about this?
what if you added a little information? I am
not saying your content isn't solid, but suppose you added a post title that grabbed folk's attention?
I mean "THE COMANDERY OF KNIGHTS TEMPLAR" is kinda vanilla.
You should glance at Yahoo's front page and watch how they create article titles to grab viewers interested. You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab readers interested about what you've got to say.
Just my opinion, it would bring your posts a little livelier.
