十字架是T字形的，至于木头的说法，应该是源之tree，是树才对，这是圣经里对十字架的另一称呼。不过这种东西并非重点，重点是耶稣为什么要死，他的复活对我们的意义是什么。比起十架，空墓穴代表的意义也很大。

　
可否給我們分享一下：

（一）耶穌為什麼要死；
（二）他的復活對我們的意義。

謝謝。

说得对，十字架是耶稣受死的象征，空墓穴代表耶稣的复活。是为了要我们记得这点。

嗯。。。这应该是每位基督徒都有做的功课吧！也不用我赘诉了。

下下签

我不是很清除所谓的“耶和华见证人”。
昨天看见有人在我居住的住宅区发派传单，
上前询问时，他们给我的答案是：“我们不属于
任何教会，我们是耶和华见证人。。。”

所谓的正统教会是把他们称呼为所谓的异端

我记得在书局看过一本书，那个时候的十架不是很高那种的。。。

犯人是必须背起一根木头。。。然后才钉在另一根木头。。。

希望没错吧

JEHOVAH WITNESS真的认为JESUS是被钉在一根木头吗？

那么很奇怪列。。。手都钉哪里呀？ ＠＠

The Cross      
                                       

READ:  Colossians 1:9-23
God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.  --Galatians 6:14

Centuries before Jesus was born, thecross had been used as an instrument of torture and death. In 519 bc,for example, King Darius I of Persia crucified 3,000 political enemiesin Babylon. This method of execution was later adopted by the Romansfor noncitizens and slaves.

When Jesus Christ bore our sins atCalvary (1 Peter 2:24), the cross took on a new significance. There theSavior, "through the blood of His cross," made it possible for us toescape judgment and be reconciled to God (Colossians 1:20-21).

Theapostle Paul understood the significance of the cross. He had done manythings in which he might have found personal satisfaction and pride (2Corinthians 11:16-12:13). But in his letter to the Galatians he wrote,"God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord JesusChrist" (6:14). As we understand what Jesus did for us on the cross, wetoo will be humbled. Our feeble efforts are nothing; His work iseverything!

The resurrected Savior invites all men and women tocome humbly in faith to Him. By believing that He died in our place onthe cross, we receive full forgiveness.

No wonder the hymnwriter Horatius Bonar exclaimed, "Hallelujah for the cross!"   —Henry G. Bosch


     So round the cross we sing
Of Christ our offering,
Of Christ our living King,
Hallelujah for the cross! —Bonar

    The cross of Christ is the bridge between God and man.
