https://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/questions/did-jesus-die-on-cross/ "Did Jesus Die on a Cross?" *The Bible’s answer Many view the cross as the most common symbol of Christianity. However, the Bible does not describe the instrument of Jesus’ death, so no one can know its shape with absolute certainty. Still, the Bible provides evidence that Jesus died, not on a cross, but on an upright stake. The Bible generally uses the Greek word stau·rosʹ when referring to the instrument of Jesus’ execution. ( Matthew 27:40; John 19:17 ) Although translations often render this word “cross,” many scholars agree that its basic meaning is actually “upright stake.” * According to A Critical Lexicon and Concordance to the English and Greek New Testament, stau·rosʹ “never means two pieces of wood joining each other at any angle.” The Bible also uses the Greek word xyʹlon as a synonym for stau·rosʹ. ( Acts 5:30; 1 Peter 2:24 ) This word means “wood,” “timber,” “stake,” or “tree.” * The Companion Bible thus concludes: “There is nothing in the Greek of the N[ew] T[estament] even to imply two pieces of timber.” Is using the cross in worship acceptable to God? A crux simplex —the Latin term for a single stake used for impalement of a criminal Regardless of the shape of the instrument on which Jesus died, the following facts and Bible verses indicate that we should not use the cross in worship. 1. God rejects worship that uses images or symbols, including the cross. God commanded the Israelites not to use “the form of any symbol” in their worship, and Christians are likewise told to “flee from idolatry.”— Deuteronomy 4:15-19; 1 Corinthians 10:14 . 2. First-century Christians did not use the cross in worship. * The teachings and example of the apostles set a pattern that all Christians should adhere to.— 2 Thessalonians 2:15 . 3. Use of the cross in worship has a pagan origin. * Hundreds of years after the death of Jesus, when the churches had deviated from his teachings, new church members “were permitted largely to retain their pagan signs and symbols,” including the cross. ( The Expanded Vine’s Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words) However, the Bible does not condone adopting pagan symbols to help make new converts.— 2 Corinthians 6:17 ." **Jehovah's Witnesses have been preaching and teaching the truth that the cross you have on your wrists and wear as necklace as well as in your homes and Churches amounts to idolatry. Na which Cross apostles Peter and Paul dey wear for neck ? Idol worshippers in disguise everywhere. |

Between The Egyptian Ankh and The
‘Christian’ Cross
By Reno Omokri
First published in my column, #
TheAlternative, in Sunday ThisDay of
December 1, 2019.
Every day, Christians in their hundreds of
millions make the sign of the Cross and
think they are performing an act of faith
pleasing to God. But is that really what they
are doing?
I had heard and read about the true origins
of the Cross and earlier this year, I even
travelled to Ethiopia to celebrate Meskel,
which is a celebration of the discovery of
the true Cross in Ethiopian orthodox
Christianity.
I am a truth seeker, and I wanted to get to
the truth no matter whose religious feathers
were ruffled, and I was told that if I wanted
to get to the bottom of the mystery behind
the Cross, then Israel and Ethiopia (two
countries I had recently visited) were not the
best starting point. I was directed to Egypt,
and off I went.
While in Egypt, I engaged the services of a
qualified guide, and we went investigating.
And that was when I discovered the Ankh.
The Ankh is an ancient Egyptian mystical
symbol used to represent life. It is most
commonly seen being held by Ancient
Egyptian gods and was given by them to
Pharaohs as an assurance that they (the
gods) would sustain the Pharaoh’s life in
the afterlife.
One of the things that will shock many
people is the fact that Christ did not die on a
Cross. The Scriptures never said so. I can
see you now getting agitated. Christ existed.
He is the Son of God. He lived, died and
resurrected as a propitiation for our sins,
and there is no way to God EXCEPT through
Christ. I did not say The Bible never said
Christ died on The Cross. It does. I said the
SCRIPTURES never said so. The Bible is a
TRANSLATION of the Holy Scriptures.
The word used in Scripture is Tree. The
original word used in the original Greek
Scripture is staurō, which may mean a pole,
or a stake, or the word xylou, which means
tree. Read Galatians 3:13 if you want to
know the truth. The King James Version
uses the word ‘Tree’ to indicate where Christ
died. The NIV uses the word ‘Pole’. Believe
it or not, for the first 300 years of the
Church, the Cross was NOT a Christian
symbol. Don’t take my word for it. Research
it.
Everywhere you see the word ‘Cross’ in The
Bible, you are reading a word that is
translated from either staurō or xylou. I
encourage you to use a Greek dictionary to
find out the meaning of both words. So,
where did the Cross originate from? I urge
you to look at the attached picture of the
Theban Trinity (consisting of Amun, his
consort Mut and their son Khonsu).
What are they each holding in their right
hands? I urge you to note that these
papyrus paintings are over 3000 years old.
Now look at modern day ankhs. In Exodus
20:4, Scripture says we must not make an
image of anything on Earth or in heaven or
under the Earth.
That is why Christ and His disciples and the
early Church did not use a Cross, whether
with or without the image of Christ on it.
The usage of the Cross and the Crucifix
came from the Roman Emperor, Constantine,
who was a pagan and claimed to have
converted to Christianity. Thus began the
introduction of The Trinity and The Cross
into Christianity. Both of which, the Romans
and Greeks copied from the ancient
Egyptians, not from Scripture.
Many of the translators of Scripture into The
Bible were Masons. I beg of you, read
Scripture in the original language, and your
life will never be the same again. It is not so
hard.
The truth, as I found out in Egypt, is that
some of the oldest Crosses in existence are
almost a replica of the Egyptian Ankh.
It is an undisputed fact that Christ did not
die on a Cross. It is an undeniable fact that
the Ankh predated the Cross. It is an
indisputable fact that Christ asked us to
teach believers “to observe all things
whatsoever I have commanded you”-
Matthew 28:20. So, my question is who
taught us to observe the Cross, and to make
the sign of the Cross, and to put it in our
places of worship? Certainly not God or His
Son.
It is time for us to purge Christianity of
pagan practices and that is why I have
travelled to Israel, Greece, Spain (Montserrat
to see the Black Madonna), Rome, The
Vatican, Ethiopia, and Egypt, to gather first-
hand knowledge about the true faith that
Christ brought to Earth.
It is that important. Nothing is more
important to me than chasing down the truth
about God because Christ said in John 4:24
that “God is a Spirit: and they that worship
him must worship him in spirit and in truth.”
If we are adopting pagan mystical practices,
how can we be said to worship him in spirit
and in truth.”?
My life, my money, my possessions and my
time is not as important to me as my God. I
believe that if mainstream religion clashes
with God, a true believer must choose God.
If work time and God time clash, a true
believer must choose God. If politics and
God clash, a true believer must choose God.
If football and God clash, a true believer
must choose God. If friends demands and
God’s requirement clash, a true believer
must choose God.
To me, this is the only way I know how to
worship God in spirit and in truth and I urge
all my readers not to take my words at face
value, but to be like the Berean Christians
who “were more noble than those in
Thessalonica, in that they received the word
with all readiness of mind, and searched the
scriptures daily, whether those things were
so.”-Acts 17:11.
We must pay close attention to what
Scripture says. Scripture like 1 Timothy 4:1
which reads as follows:
“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in
the latter times some shall depart from the
faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and
doctrines of devils;”
How can we have a symbol in churches
whose origin is clearly of Ancient Egyptian
mystical origins and we are not asking
questions? Some people privately message
me and urge me to tread with caution, lest
the establishment quietly kills me. But even
that warning assumes that I am afraid of
death. I am not scared of death. Not at all.
What do I want to achieve in life that God
has not given me, often on a platter of gold?
If I, who has been so blessed by God, cannot
risk my life against the establishment for
Him, then I am of all men most useless!
2 Chronicles 16:9 says “For the eyes of the
LORD run to and fro throughout the whole
earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of
them whose heart is perfect toward him.”
My body is imperfect towards God. I am a
sinner. I freely confess that. But my heart is
wholly devoted to God. I have no doubt in
my heart that the God of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob, the God and Father of my Lord and
Saviour, Yeshua Hamashiach, is the ONLY
TRUE God.
If I am killed doing what I believe He is
leading me to do, then that death will be the
sweetest death possible and I have no fear
in my heart if it has to come.
We cannot just go along to get along. We
must interrogate every aspect of our religion
to make sure that it has complete fidelity to
Scripture. After all, it is the same Scripture
that warns us to “believe not every spirit,
but try the spirits whether they are of God:
because many false prophets are gone out
into the world.”-1 John 4:1.
Every information that does not lead to
transformation is entertainment. Do not just
read this and be entertained. Read this and
be spurred on to get to the bottom of your
faith. You owe it to yourself because on the
last day of Judgment, every man will
independently give an account of his life
before God who tries the heart. God bless
you as you do this.
According to Mark Twain "The two most
important days in your life are the day you
are born and the day you find out why."
When I started out on this journey in 2018
by going to Israel to get to the bottom of the
original Scripture, I had previously thought
my purpose in life was to infuse Godliness
into Nigerian and world politics (especially
after my book became a number one
bestseller).
I now see that that is a side purpose, and
the main purpose was to call the Body of
Christ to fidelity with the original Scriptures
as they were written in Hebrew, Aramaic and
Greek.
I gave a respected and high profile Nigerian
today’s column, before it was published,
because he requested it. He then tried to
convince not to publish it and accused me
of “pride” for refusing to accept his counsel
and even said satan influenced me.
I responded to him by asking him how satan
could have influenced me when what I was
writing was faithful to Scripture and to
prophecy. I confronted him with the fact that
the original Scripture did not use the word
‘Cross’, not even once and that it was
European translators who inserted that word
into Scripture.
I further reminded him that in the only
Scripture that prophesied the way Christ
would die (Deuteronomy 21:23), the word
used was the Hebrew word הָעֵ֗ץ (spelt in
Roman alphabets as hā-‘êṣ, which is the
Hebrew word for tree.
He responded by googling and sending me a
picture of a tree that looks like a Cross and
said that historically, the Romans crucified
people on Crosses. I responded by asking
him if we, as followers of Christ, should
follow pictures derived from Google or
historical accounts, or Scripture, especially
when 2 Timothy 3:16 says “All SCRIPTURE
is given by inspiration of God, and is
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for
correction, for instruction in righteousness:”
Note the word Scripture. Not Bible
(translation of Scripture). At this point, he
again accused me to beware of “pride”. I
asked him how I could be proud when I was
relying solely on Scripture. He asked me if I
was relying on Scripture for the part about
Masonry.
At that point, I had a guest come in, so I
could not chat with him with the same
rapidity. That Masons, and Rosicrucians
dominated the translation of Scripture into
the King James Version of The Bible is a
historic fact. Research it. Sir Francis Bacon,
who was Lord High Councillor to King
James I, was a Rosicrucian. That is a
historical fact. The word Rosicrucian simply
means "Order of the Rosy Cross".
It was their agenda to promote the Cross.
The Cross plays a mystical role in their
occult world. Many of those appointed into
the committee that translated Scripture into
KJV were Masons. That is a historical fact.
And even Masons themselves regard the
KJV as “The Great Light of Masonry”.
Scripture tells us not to be “be conformed to
this world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that you may prove
what is that good and acceptable and
perfect will of God.”-Romans 12:2.
What better way to fulfil the above Scripture
than to read Scripture in its original
language and “conform” to it? If the original
Scripture does not mention the word ‘Cross’,
and instead uses the word tree, then who
are you conforming with by arguing for and
propagating the lie that Christ was crucified
on a Cross? Certainly not God. Certainly not
Scripture.
Why can we as Christians not learn from
Muslims by learning and reading Scripture
in the original language? I know of 7 year
old Muslims who can read and recite the
Quran in Arabic. Why can we not have adult
Christians who can read and recite the Holy
Scripture in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek?
That is why I respect Apostle Johnson
Suleman. He not only taught himself Greek.
He went to Greece and stayed in a commune
and read the original Scripture in its original
language 34 good times!

This matter tie wrapper well well.... The alleged victim should follow due legal process to seek justice ,if indeed there is concrete proof of the allegations levelled against the accused. The Law Enforcement Agencies should do the needful by way of thorough investigation and prosecution. But, why is the face of the accused obscured in the online photo? |
johnmba:## (1). YES. Big difference like night and day. ' But ,Lets see the similarities first.... God is a title ('EL',meaning Mighty One) and 'Lord' (meaning Master) is a title too. * 1 Cor 8:5,6. 'God' & Lord' are titles for God, for man and for Jesus Christ. That is where the similarities ends. # (2). *Psalms 83:18, (KJV) Jehovah is the Most High God" *John 17:3, Jesus says his Father is the Only True God..." 1 Cor 8:6, 'One God' # (3) * John 20:17 & Rev 3:5,12 ,Jesus says he is ascending to our God & Father & and his God &Father in heaven and earth (Jehovah the Most High). Note : Jesus NEVER called himself God. Jehovah has no God, no Father. But, Jesus Christ has a Father and God above him in heaven and earth. * Ephesians1:3, "Jehovah is the God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." # (4) Acts 2:36, Jehovah God gave Jesus the title of "Lord". John 10:34-36 ( KJV) Jehovah gave the title 'God' to man and to Jesus Christ. Compare Psalm 82:1,6(KJV). PROOF: Jesus is a God. Man is a God. Both Jesus and man exist in the image of God. 1 Cor 4:4. Genesis1:27. Matt 11:25,Jesus calls his God, "the Lord of heaven and earth," PROOF of Jesus inferiority to his God & Father. # (5) Psalm 110 :1 American Standard Version (ASV) Jehovah gives dominion to the king. A Psalm of David. 110 Jehovah saith unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool." * In heaven, Jehovah is giving a Command to Lord Jesus Christ "Sit at my right hand". Jesus Christ is a divine being, a god. NOT the 'ONLY true God' his Father is. The Trinity scam is the reason for your confusion. Las,las the Trinity is a FRAUD. Shine your eyes. |

"Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" 4 Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, `I am the Christ, and will deceive many. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains. 9 "Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. 15 "So when you see standing in the holy place `the abomination that causes desolation,' spoken of through the prophet Daniel--let the reader understand-- 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no one on the roof of his house go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in the field go back to get his cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now--and never to be equaled again. 22 If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23 At that time if anyone says to you, `Look, here is the Christ!' or, `There he is!' do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time. 26 "So if anyone tells you, `There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, `Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. 27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather. 29 "Immediately after the distress of those days "`the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.' 30 "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. 31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other. 32 "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. 34 I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened." **## Maximum impact of FALSEHOOD, where you copy that lie wey you no want give credit to the original poster?

My uncle is not JW,his daughter was diagnosed with a serious medical condition and she was admitted in the hospital for 2 good months. In the course of her treatment, she received massive amounts of blood transfusions and other medications. You know what happened? She died. If she was a JW, haters will claim she refused "life saving blood transfusions." Roughly 3 years ago, a visited a relative whose child was admitted in hospital ,several times. In the course of two weeks, 4 children died in the Children's Ward during that period even though all were received blood transfusions which has been labeled "life saving." What will people say, if their parents were JW? * Life saving blood transfusion is a myth*. (Arthur Ashe is among the numerous proofs.) Bloodless medical treatment is better option & JWs wholeheartedly embrace it https://sharing.mayoclinic.org/2017/10/26/open-heart-surgery-achieves-success-without-blood-transfusions/ ** Love for Jehovah & obedience to HIM is Paramount. Mark12:29, Jesus Christ obedience cost him his life but he regained it. Luke9:23,24, likewise JWs. Our hope in the resurrection is solid. We are not fairweather Christians. God's promises are trustworthy. Rev 21:3-5. Numbers 23:19. |
maoolakanm:Jesus disciples had their "MANY DOCTRINE SOMERSAULTS THEY ARE NOT CHRISTIANS" Luke 19:11. John16:16-18. Luke 24:21,25-27,44,45. Who told you JWs don't believe "THE RETURN OF JESUS CHRIST." 2 Thess1:7-9. Abeg, listen more to JWs & AVOID the fables of your pastorpreneurs. |
viktor88:(1). You add Maggy and Royco to your story... JWs help our non JW families (it's our biblical obligations, except the help involves fetish or spiritism,) as well as our JW family. (2). You admitted "sister Esther have been suspended" for going against God's righteous standards.. PROOF ,JWs discipline erring members in line with bible standards. *1 Cor 5:1-13, please read & study. Unlike in Christendom, Pastorpreneurs ckoza married & single women and hide under the toga of 'touch not my anointed pre*q & do my profits no harm' anything goes. Keep paying your membership fees them no questions asked. But JWs stick to Bible principles, that's what pleases Jehovah- humble obedience and genuine repentance when you err. |
sassysure:You have no secrets to bare.... except your prejudiced opinions... Cross & pyramid symbols full your church and your house, na who you wan deceive? |
phillippians:Bros, JWs believe heaven exists and the Bible's hell ( Sheol /Hades>Psalm16:10) is the grave. Hellfire is a man made invention of the clergy to instil fear into their followers... ( If anyone believe in hellfire, please bring proof that Adam the first sinner is being tortured in hellfire.. no long story.) |
mchc1001:In your own words, "Russian government tag them terrorist", but the tag is FALSE and very unfair. The Russian Government seeks to justify their unjust persecution of Jehovah's people. Have you ever heard of any terrorist attacks credited to JWs ? NONE !!!!! JWs everywhere are peace loving and law abiding. |
Edu3Again:You are LYING. That's not his tomb. What is the Pyramid symbol doing on your house roofing and even your church building roofing? Where is the proof of the Lodge fraternise with & his registration details? Prejudice no dey let una see road. Liar deceiving yourself |
Truefaith:John17:3. 14:1. 20:17. Matt 16:13-17, Do you believe the words of Jesus Christ? Truefaith knows NOTHING about JWs . Please cure your ignorance. visit jw.org. |
