What's with the 'cross?'

distazo Wrote:The image below was take by me in the Roman National Museum, I'm sorry I did not get the date and the figure, but he was a greek writer and executed in the 2nd century BC and the statue was +/- first century, as I remember.

I _have been_ a 'Jehovah's Witness' and currently, I no longer witness of the Watchtower teachings, but I witness of the The Father who is called God Jehova and the Son Jesus.
I know why this is an issue. The Watchtower teaches that 'true religion' has no left-overs of 'heathen' symbols and feasts and traditions. And 'the cross' was a babylonic symbol, _so_ they say, we have no such things! We are in, and we have THE truth!

However, they nullify the really important things. It COULD have been a stake, instead of a cross, but what's the point? If this 'fact' is not right, does that mean that Jesus will not have you benefit from HIS sacrifice? God forbid!
True love and everlasting life, do NOT depend on 'knowledge' or 'epignosis' as Jehovah's Witnesses think and say (they wrongly citate John 17:3) but on the unconditional, with no look at the face, _love_ of the father!
John 3:15, 16. (EVERYONE who believes (or has faith) in him, will not be destroyed...

But, do the Watchtower followers know that THEIR watchtower symbol _really_ is a Greek goddess? Yes! Freemasonry, (Russell was one) has dual faces! At one side, Ezekiel mentions a watchtower, at the ohter side, Free masons, _hide_ their true faces behind a thick fog of symbols that only the 'higher levels' know.

Thanks for your contribution but these are widely published. Yes, you are wise to stay clear of 'cults' but pursue the truth nevertheless. Yes, we thank Yeshua through His Father (YHWH) for the wonderful gift of eternal life!
