Description
Jesus Christ, with his crucifixion, turned the cross into a symbol of His infinite love for human beings. Before Lords Crucifixion, Cross was considered a symbol of disgrace and punishment while after that it became an emblem of glory and honor. Thus, the Cross is for the Orthodox Church a symbol of salvation and grace. This is why it is necessary for all Christians to wear a cross around their necks, both as a testimony of faith as well as a necessary protective amulet.
This pendant is casted in a quality metal material: alloy of tin (pewter) coated with antimony.
