People Wear It But Do They Understand It's Message?

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 1:18

Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. John 15:13

So true- when or if we wear it let us remember it's meaning.

@BritishFailedAesthetic It symbolizes an execution device, yes? Tell me, had the Romans invented hanging, would you wear one of these?

@CorvusBlackthorne It's more about representing how he died rather than celebrating the execution device.

@CorvusBlackthorne The cross has always been used as a reminder to Christians of what Jesus went through to save us.. And yeah if Jesus ended up being hanged to death then some Christians would wear hangman nooses around their necks like you have depicted in your picture for the very same reason..

@BritishFailedAesthetic Then you would wear a hangman's noose if Jesus had been hanged, yes?

@LordShadowfire That's hard to say- if Christians did it would be a pendant obviously 😅

@BritishFailedAesthetic That's what I meant, lol. Not an actual noose around the neck.
