Why Don’t You Use the Cross in Your Worship?Many people view the cross as the universal symbol of Christianity. Although Jehovah’sWitnesses are Christians, we do not use the cross in our worship. Why not?One reason is that the Bible indicates thatJesus did not die on a crossbut rather on a simple stake. Moreover, the Bible strongly warns Christians to “flee from idolatry,” which would mean not using the crossin worship.—⁠1 Corinthians 10:14;1 John 5:21.Significantly, Jesus said: “By thisall will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves.” (John 13:34, 35) Jesus thereby indicated that self-sacrificing love—⁠not the cross or any other image⁠—⁠would identifyhis true followers.
