Tortur device?

The cross, crucifixion, I'm assuming is what this post is about.

If so, this guy is dumb, the cross isn't a torture device, it's a form of the death penalty, like the electric chair, or hanging.

It kinda was... If they wanted to kill someone they would just stab him or slit his throat or something. Crucifixion was designed to be as painful and as slow as possible.

Christians started worshiping the cross after Jesus died on it so your post doesn't make any sense really

by Anonymous 13 years ago

There were no Christians before Jesus died.

Christians don't worship the cross. That would be idolatry; the cross is just a symbol. Christians worship God.

They should be worshiping the one on the cross lol

People need to stop being so critical of this post. It makes perfect sense.

Christians don't worship the cross. We worship Jesus. Jesus died on a cross so that our sins could be forgiven, so the cross has become a symbol for that sacrifice. But the cross itself isn't God, which is why we don't worship it. And also, I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think that the cross was a common symbol amongs christians during the first centuries ...
