Cross: Since the 4th century the cross has symbolized God’s great sacrifice, salvation to all of humanity, the promise of resurrection and eternal life.
Traditional uses include keeping evil spirits at bay, shielding one from harm and negative energies, and bringing peace in Christ's name. Middle Age Coats of Arms were created with crosses to be worn by Knights to distinguish friend from foe and provide protection in battle. In business they were historically used on contracts to show trustworthiness of deals and in marketplaces to remind merchants to treat their customers fairly.
It is estimated that there are 400 variations of the cross, with approximately 50 being used in churches today. Each one is a powerful representation of the connection between heaven and earth, sin and forgiveness, death and rebirth. The cross personifies spiritual awakening and love in its purest form.
