| | Christian cross - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | For Muslims, Jews and Jehovah's Witnesses the symbol of the Cross or Religious Icons are sacrilegious as God cannot be depicted in any physical form. | | | Its significance lies in the belief that Jesus Christ was executed by the governor of Judea on a large wooden cross. | | | One of the twelve great feasts in the Eastern Orthodox Church is the Exaltation of the Cross on September 14, which commemorates the consecration of the basilica on the site where the (allegedly) original cross was discovered in 326 by Helena, mother of Constantine the Great. |

| | The red cross on a white field is the St. George Cross, an indicator of the Episcopal Church's link to the Church of England, the mother church of the Anglican Communion. | | | The center cross represents Jerusalem, and the four smaller crosses represent the four corners of the earth to which the gospel is being taken or for which Jesus died. | | | The outline of the miniature crosses is in the form of St. Andrew's Cross in tribute to the Scottish church's role in ordaining the first American bishop, Samuel Seabury, in 1784. |

| | One of the most distinct images of the Orthodox Faith is the three-barred cross that rests high upon the onion domes of Russian cathedrals and is sold as an icon in kiosks outside the churches themselves. | | | While the symbol of the cross did not originate with the Christian faith, undoubtedly it has come to most commonly be associated with it (Robinson 3). | | | The Cross of St. Constantine, which resides within the monastery of Vatopedi on Mt. Athos, is a three-barred cross of the distinctly Orthodox design (OCIC 2-3). |

| | Cross of Lorraine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | It was originally the symbol of Joan of Arc, renowned for her perseverance against foreign invaders of France (in her case, the English). | | | In 20th century use, the lower bar is longer than the upper, thus resembling a patriarchal cross, the crossbars of which, however, are both near the top. | | | The cross was also carried on the fuselages of aircraft flying on behalf of the Forces Aériennes Françaises Libres (FAFL) from 1940 to 1943 to distinguish them from the aircraft of the Vichy French air force, which continued to sport the traditional French air force ( Armée de l'Air) roundels, dating from World War I. |
