KNOW The
Greater Meaning
Behind The
Symbol
“(Jesus said) Unto you it is given to KNOW
The mysteries of the kingdom of God
But to others in parables (symbols) that seeing
They might not see, and hearing
They might not understand.”
Luke 8:10
When we see symbols we usually have a good idea what they mean.
For example the barbershop pole means haircuts, the power button
starts electronics, and the radiation symbol indicates danger
ahead. Although the cross is the oldest and most recognizable
of all symbols, few UNDERSTAND what IT means —
and the significance and power
behind it .
Today crosses are commonly worn as just another piece of jewelry or
seen afixed to church buildings and when seen, most people give little
or no thought to it, but if they came to understand the power behind it,
they would realize that it is THE single most significant of all symbols!
You see, the cross is a powerful parable in wood of a true story that happened
over two thousand years ago where an innocent man died —not for HIS
crimes — but for the crimes of all people in all times - past,
present and future, and that was Jesus Christ.
If you have never seriously considered who Christ is,
why he died, and the power of the cross, today is the day you
ought look seriously at understanding this mystery,
and come to the “...full assurance of understanding,
to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father,
and of Christ.” (Colossians 2:2)
Friend, if there is ANY One Symbol that essential to understand,
it is this one.
