Fisherman’s Cross

$60.00

The combination of a cross and an ichthus is a profound symbol of Christian faith, merging two of the most enduring emblems of belief. The cross, representing the sacrifice and redemption through Jesus Christ, stands as a beacon of hope and salvation. The ichthus (fish), an ancient symbol used by early Christians during times of persecution, carries a quiet strength and a sense of shared faith. Together, these symbols unite the message of sacrifice and the call to follow Christ, while also evoking a sense of community among believers. This pairing serves as a powerful reminder of God’s love, the promise of salvation, and the courage it takes to live and share one’s faith.

The Fisherman’s Cross

It is believed the arching curves of the “Fish” or ICTHUS illustrated on the cross, was first used by believers during the times of Christian persecution as a secret sign of their shared faith.  One person would draw an arc in the sand and the other would complete the sign to show a brotherhood in Christ.

Using this once-secret symbol of Christianity hooked around the cross, we are reminded to go forth boldly, telling others of the Kingdom of God.

“Go and proclaim the kingdom of God”   Luke 9:60

 “Don’t be afraid, from now on you will catch men!”   Luke 5:10
