Simple Yellow Orthodox TriBar Cross | Crucify My Ego to the Precious and Life Giving Cross | Minimalist Christian Distressed Embroidered Capafter the Saviours sufferings, the cross became the sign of the Son of man, that is, the cross signifies the Lord Himself, incarnate and suffering for our salvation. + St. John of Kronstadt +++ Lifted up upon the Cross, pierced by a spear, Thy fingers bloodied, supremely good Master, Thou didst sign our emancipation; and tearing apart the record of the sins of Adam, our forefather, Thou didst free human nature. Wherefore, Compassionate One, we hymn

but we are elated by it

and being where He is

the congregation of evil doers hath surrounded me

simple and holy as an angel

man in Heaven

who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross

as I said before

Everything in man is old

Mark of Ephesus in the 15th century

I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely

Kings of the earth

Whereas Socrates concludes that the soul is immortal by nature
