Crucifixes...

[SinisterPizza]

Do Protestant Christians wear crucifixes? You know...the crosses with Jesus on them, rather than just a plain cross. I'm completely confused if this is just a catholic thing, or if non-catholic Christians wear them as well...? Reason being is that I saw one gorgeous tiny silver crucifix for sale today. Being as I'm hardly Christian, much less Catholic, I didn't buy it, though. I'm not really one for advertising my faith if I were to be Christian, but I do feel a pull to buy the necklace...as in I really want to go back to the stand tomorrow and get it, if it's still there.

Perhaps this pull is Jesus Himself?

Re: Crucifixes...

If the pull is indeed Jesus himself, you need to get down on your knees and repent for being a filthy sinner and ask Jesus to save you.

True Christians™ do not wear crucifixes with Jesus on them. The image of Jesus on Cathylick crucifixes is blasphemous!
The significance is that they believe that Jesus is still on the cross. Thus: he did not die for the sins of mankind and we are not redeemed by his blood. This image is also an idol that Cathylicks worship , instead of worshipping Jesus himself.

Re: Crucifixes...

Jesus is gone, He has risen. Glory! Crucifixes are for cathylicks (they are still munching on his body and drinking his blood), and violate the Second Commandment.

In your case, it does not matter. You might as well nail a pet gerbil onto a cross and wear it.

I'd rather not.old

By decent I might be some kind of catholic anyways...my parents aren't, but I think some relatives might be...and I've got Irish heritage somewhere as well.

Yes, SinisterPizza still doesn't know what on earth her faith is...Spiritually Lazy Eclectic Agnostic Christian-Wiccan? There's got to be at least a dozen contradictions in there somewhere...

Repent of your Sins.
Get down on your knees and give Praise to Jesus Christ

Get yourself a decent Hairdresser and some more suitable clothes.

When Jesus drop-kicks you into the lake of fire, the exact number of contradictions won't matter, now, will it?

Anyway, back to the OP: No, we don't wear crucifixes. The Bible says that God temporarily sacrificed Himself to Himself once and that it's finished:

John 19:30: When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

Hebrews 10:10: By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once [for all].

We don't portray Jesus as still on the Cross because He isn't. Praise His holy name!

By contrast, the Roman cult, which looks for every opportunity to turn Scripture inside out, babbles on about the continuing sacrifice of the Mass and portrays Our Lord as on the Cross to this very day. Apparently, the fish heads want us to believe that the Almighty is powerless to do anything without the help of a dress-wearing kiddy-fiddler.

But at least it's silver. You do know what the Bible says about the wearing of gold by women, don't you?

For crying out loud friend, you talk like you're almost proud of that. An Irish catlick? You may as well tell me you work the back room in a queer bar.

Exodus 20:23 Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.

Leviticus 19:4 Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the LORD your God.

In your case, it does not matter. You might as well nail a pet gerbil onto a cross and wear it.

At least that'd send out a positive message: we will not surrender to the terrorists.

Lying in a gutter, most likely.

Re: Crucifixes...

You are about as Christian as Hillary Cliton. Which is to say, not at all.

You can wear all the necklaces you like, you Godless Cannucki harlot. You can paint your ass red and try and convince Jesus that you're a baboon for all I care. You can't trick Christ. He sees through all of your diabolical schemes.

...What does my hair have to do with anything?

But at least it's silver. You do know what the Bible says about the wearing of gold by women, don't you?

No, I wasn't aware...is this only for real gold, or anything golden-colored? Mostly I prefer silver anyways. My old cross which I lost used to be gold, actually...shame I lost it really, it was a present, and the one time I wear it it goes missing

Very true. I think they are sick. Only Madonna wears them and that speaks volumes.

Or maybe she gave up the Catholic teachings now for some stupid cult that I can't spell.

I wonder if she still dreams of kissing a black Jesus. Sick!

I rather wear a pagan Easter egg around my neck.

Read 1 Corinthians, you silly slapper!

Read 1 Corinthians, you silly slapper!

Exactly which part of 1 Corinthians? Because all I found on Bible Gateway was that my hair should be long, which it fairly much is. Whatever the DOF is saying about my hair is clearly wrong.

Regarding gold:

I Timothy 2:9-10: In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.

Regarding anything gold-colored, I think you should avoid it:

I Thess. 5:22: Abstain from all appearance of evil.

That should cover faux pearls and knockoffs of designer dresses as well.

Re: Crucifixes...

Judging from the picture, that's not going to be a problem.
