***There is nothing in the Greek
of the New Testament even to imply two pieces of timber.***

If it is just an upright stake, what do the Greek Orthodox believe it is? A cross!

Bullinger also believed that ONLY the last few letters of Paul are for the “body of Christ” today and that the church began at Acts 28, when Paul journied to Rome.

It makes not one whit of difference what the Greek Orthodox
believe or any one else. It is what the Bible says is
important. The word stauros translated to English as
cross, is a pole, not a cross. Anything not based on
the Scriptures is man-devised, by definition is not
holy or pure or perfect. That’s all.
