"...the daughter of Jared was exceedingly fair. And it came to pass that she did talk with her father, and said unto him: Whereby hath my father so much sorrow? Hath he not read the record which our fathers brought across the great deep? Behold, is there not an account concerning them of old, that they by their secret plans did obtain kingdoms and great glory?"  -- Ether 8:9

"And now I, Moroni, do not write the manner of their oaths and combinations, for it hath been made known unto me that they are had among all people, and they are had among the Lamanites."  -- Ether 8:20

“Chi-Ro.” It is the Greek symbol for “Christ” and is a combination of the Greek letters Chi and Ro (CH and R) meaning Christ. This symbol has been used by Christians for well over 1600 years. However, the X-sign, according to Thiering[6] and Gardner, became hated by the Roman Church because it was used onwards from Old Testament times to identify the Zadok Priesthood. (The Priesthood of Melchizedek) Acknowledgement of such would place the Priesthood delineated from St. Peter in a subordinate position.
