It’s all the same sacrifice. You are thinking in terms of time, the Christian Faith thinks in terms of eternity.

I’ve never understood what Protestants have against the Crucifix.

Perhaps this may help explain our concern.

Perhaps you do not understand because Roman Catholics do not have the same ten commandments.

When I was a Reformed Christian, I was always taught that the empty cross meant that His sacrifice was completed and that His body had risen.

In heaven, in eternity, Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father.

The CROSS is empty like HIS tomb. HE HAS RISEN! It Is Finished.
