World Mission Society Church of God] Cross is an adol.

Nowadays, nearly every church uses the cross as a symbol for christ. but, the cross had been utilized as a symbol of paganism long before christ's crucifixion.
The catholic church considers the cross as an object of worship, and the Protestant churches use the cross as a symbol for christ. so, many people in those churches mistakenly believe that the cross has been used since the days of the early church. but, there is no record of the cross being erected on the church or of its pattern being made into an ornament. Historically, the cross first appreared in a church or a chamber in 431A.D., and it was first erected on the top of a steeple in 586 A.D. Thus, the veneration of the cross was a religious custom that appeared after Christianity absorbed paganism.
we have to understand the true meaning of the cross, descibed in the New Testament. The bible never tells us to boast of the cross itself on which Christ was crucified, but give thanks to the crist who was sacrificed on the cross, sheding His blood for our sins, and to receive the grace God gives freely.
The cross itself does not have the power to save. No matter on what instrument Jesus was sacrificed, it is only His blood that has power to atone for our sins. so, the cross itself is not important at all. it is only through the blood of Jesus that we can receive the forgiveness of our sins.

Ehp 1:7 "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace.. "

The cross of merely a cursed tree(Gal 3:13), used by the Romans as an instrument of execution. Those who hung Jesus on that tree will be tormented in hell forever.

From the Biblical point of view, the cross is an idol.
Whoever erets cross and worships it will be eternally cursed by God and will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
