Margaret Thatcher said, “Power is like being a lady…if you have to tell people you are, you aren’t.” If you remove the word “power” and replace it with the word “Christianity” you have answered the question we are often asked about why we don’t wear crosses.
The wearing of a cross is meant to proclaim to the world that the wearer believes in Christ. Yet, the act of living a Christian life proclaims that already. And if your daily actions are not proclaiming your Christianity, there is little point in wearing a symbol that says you are.
Rather than worrying about what other Christians think about our non-use of the cross in our daily apparel and building décor, we need to be examining ourselves to be sure we are not wearing social aspects of our church as a superficial sign of discipleship.
Matthew 7:20
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
