Pagan Instrument of Death VS Pagan IDOL in Shape of a POLE!
Did the Romans WORSHIP the cross? No! Absolutely Not!
Did the Romans use a CROSS as an IDOL of one of their many gods?
I find no sound evidence of the Romans having any IDOLS in the shape of a CROSS.
In fact, did ANY pagan in all of history BEFORE Jesus have a IDOL in the SHAPE of a CROSS?
Again, I find no sound evidence other that the Egyptian ankh that any pagan idol was in the shape of a cross.
Now, WHY do I even ask these questions?
It is because for some REASON the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witnesses argue AGAINST the CROSS by strongly IMPLYING that the pagans used the cross as IDOLS in the WORSHIP of their false gods.
They write their studies like crafty lawyers choosing how they word things to leave the IMPRESSION of what they WANT their followers to believe without specifically STATING it as a FACT.
Here is a quote from one of their articles called The Cross - Is it Biblical?
The emphasis and the comments in parenthesis are mine.
I will place their article in Courier New font style to be sure my readers are clear on the fact that I am NOT a former or ex-Jehovah’s Witness.
And because of their SHUNNING practice along with many of their false teachings, I will NEVER become a Jehovah’s Witness.
This study if for those seeking the PURE TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God that are not AFRAID of QUESTIONING what the leaders of the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witnesses teaches their followers.
I would still be a Trinitarian Christians is I had not QUESTIONED the LEADERS of the Trinitarian church denominations.
And because I asked Almighty God in the name of Jesus to show me the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God, I can now clearly see that I was MISLEAD to wrongly believe in the FALSE doctrine of the Trinity.
So, never be afraid to read that Bible for yourself WITHOUT the literature of your church denomination TELLING you what the Bible means.
Especially if they IMPLY that they alone can interpret the Scriptures correctly and all other Christians are teaching false doctrines.
Again, the emphasis and comments in parentheses in the follow quotes are mine.
“Did Jesus’ disciples use the cross to worship God or to symbolize Christianity?
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS
Nowhere does the Bible suggest that the earliest Christians used the cross as a religious symbol. Instead, it was the Romans of that era who used the cross design to symbolize their gods.”
Now again, I myself have found no evidence to support an absolute yes to either of these the questions I asked in the introduction.
Did the Romans WORSHIP the cross? No! Absolutely not!
Did the Romans use a CROSS as an IDOL of one of their many gods?
Again, I did not find any evidence of the Romans having any idols in the shape of a cross.
In fact, did ANY pagan in all of history BEFORE Jesus had a IDOL in the SHAPE of a CROSS except for the Egyptian anhk?
It is true the the Romans were pagans and all Roman pagans worshiped false gods.
And it is true that the Romans made IDOLS to their false gods.
It is true that the Romans Catholics believe that Jesus died for the sins of the world, but that does NOT mean that EVERY Christians believe and teach what Roman Catholics believe and practice in their church denomination.
So then, there is no evidence that I have found of a CROSS being used as an IDOL to worship their gods by ANY pagan, Roman gods or otherwise.
But I did find a LOT of evidence of Pagan idols of worship in the SHAPE of a straight upright POLE!
Have you ever heard of a Totem POLE?
Here is a picture of an IDOL used to worship pagan false gods that is in the SHAPE of a STRAIGHT upright POLE!
This one is in Hawaii, but they are literally all over the world.
Have you as a Jehovah’s Witness ever thought to truly consider the POSSIBILITY that the early founders of the Jehovah’s Witness MIGHT have been deceived by Satan?
I mean THINK about the SHAPE of the pagan IDOLS in the Bible ITSELF.
Think about the ancient artifacts of idols made in stone like what we find on Easter Island.
I believe that those massive stone PILAR SHAPED idols where made BEFORE God ever created Adam and Eve.
Now, if what I know in my heart is true, then IDOLS used to worship Satan and the fallen angels before Adam was ever created were in the SHAPE of UPRIGHT POLES and pillars.
In other words, they were NOT in the SHAPE of CROSSES!
So, to me, that is the REASON for WHY the leaders of the governing body were SEDUCED by the DECEPTION of Satan to be AGAINST the SHAPE of the cross, is that the TRUE SHAPE of idols worshiping Satan are STRAIGHT UPRIGHT POLES.
And after you come to know what the NAME “Jehovah” actually MEANS, then you will never use that name to CALL upon God ever again.
Do you not understand that Satan is THE god of this present world and that he and the fallen angels desire to be worshiped?
So when the unlearned call out to God, then sometimes the ANSWER come from the god of this present world and NOT from Almighty God the Father, the God of Jesus.
I will expound on this some more further on in this study and throughout this series of studies.
So I implore you to read the whole study and all of the studies in this series of studies on the STAKE being the SHAPE of Pagan IDOLS of worship.
And we will also cover OTHER shapes of pagan idols at are ASSOCIATED with the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.
Here is a picture of ancient pagan idols in the SHAPE of a castle, which is the SYMBOL of the Watchtower publication society of the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
So, is this connection just an innocent coincidence or did Satan deceive the leaders of the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witnesses?
And here is another pagan SYMBOL, the Egyptian winged sun disc that is used on some of the books and other publications of the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
Now, many if not most Jehovah’s Witnesses have their own personal COPY of the Divine Plan of Ages or you can find a good PICTURE of the cover online.
Take a magnifying glass and look closely at the artwork on each side of the sun disc and notice the head of a SERPENT on each side coming out of the top of the artwork that HIDES the bodies of the snakes.
Also, notice the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt on the cover of different editions of the SAME book.
Charles Taze Russel was into Pyramidology and a monument of a pyramid can be seen behind his tombstone.
Or I should say USED to be there, but the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witnesses just had it REMOVED.
Please watch the video and share it will as many as you can before it disappears.

So then, as you can clearly see, the governing body of the Jehovah’s Witnesses use several well know undeniable pagan SYMBOLS as the EMBLEM and LOGO to show which god they TRULY worship behind closed doors.

Thanks for reading, and may God bless you richly as you continue to seek the TRUTH of the WHOLE word of Almighty God.
And to me, the truth concerning who Jesus TRULY is, according to the Bible ITSELF, is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus.
Once Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even atheists understand the REASON that Yahweh CREATED the Son of MAN, Jesus, was to have DOMINION over the work of Yahweh’s hands.
And after you understand that the REASON that Yahweh did that is to STILL His ENEMIES, Satan and the fallen angels.
Then you can understand that God made His human Son to become “a” Lord, “a” King, and “a” God, under and subject to his God and Father in order to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.
For a deeper understanding of this WAR that Lucifer and one third of the angels waged against the throne of Almighty God, please read the studies under the subject category called ** Q-0 Why Are We Here? Is God at WAR? **.
