Anything not based on
the Scriptures is man-devised, by definition is not
holy or pure or perfect. That’s all.***

So, why did the Greek Christians of the first centuries always show a cross! I would imagine that they knew what it meant. All the iconography shows a cross.

Not only that but first century Roman graffiti insulting Christians ALSO shows a CROSS as well.
