He carried the full cross.
AnswerChrist was crucified on a cross, but there are at least 3 types:
- "T-shaped" (or "low tau") .
- "+- shaped" (or "high-tau"). [This is the traditional shaped cross. ]
- a vertical upright, such as a tree or post or stake.
Christ was made a curse for us and prophesied that such a person would be hung on a tree.
Galatians 3
13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, "Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:"
This reference is in Deuteronomy
Deuteronomy 21
23 His body shall not remain all night upon thetree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day; (forhe that is hanged is accursed of God;) …...
Mat 27:32 KJV
(32)And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear hiscrossG4716
Strong's G4716 says the greek word for "cross" is "stauros" and means an upright stake, or post, permanently set in the ground.
Although other verses in "Acts" refer to Christ on a "tree", this is because the audience were jews and being referred back to what Moses said in Deuteronomy.
Acts 5
30 The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on atree.
Acts 10
39 And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:
As Jesus was crucified on a "stauros" , possibly a tree-trunk, it meant He was only carrying the crosspiece on His shouldersy, not an entire tree.
Still, it is really irrelevant whether the type of cross Christ died on was shaped like a "T", an "X", a "+", an "I" , a tree, a post, or stake: the end result was the same. Christ died for our sins, for the sins of everyone in the the entire world, He took the penalty of death that we deserve upon Himself. Christ saved people from death BUT although this free gift of salvation is available for all, it actually has to be asked for. Accept Christ and live.

What was the distance Jesus walk to the way to Golgotha with the cross?
John did not carry the cross at all, although he was present at the Crucifixion - the only disciple who did not abandon Jesus. The cross was carried by Jesus himself, as was the custom, until he was so exhausted that he fell from the weight. Then we are told that a foreigner visiting Jerusalem, Simon of Cyrene, was commanded to carry it by the Roman guards there for the last stretch up to the Place of the Skull where Jesus was crucified. Incidentally, when we hear of the 'cross' being carried, this was actually the cross-bar and not the whole cross. The cross-bar would have been carried across the shoulders so that the rough hewn wood would dig into the flayed and wounded back (caused by the savage whipping where chunks of flesh would be removed during the process) so that the maximum pain could be infllicted. Carrying (or dragging) a full cross like you see in Hollywood movies was not the practice of the Romans and never really happened. For one thing, crosses were usually in two parts - an upright and a crossbeam (which was carried), and secondly, just dragging a cross over one shoulder is much less exhausing and easier on a wounded back than carrying a crossbeam across the victim's shoulders, which would have been agony. The Romans were very clever people, wonderful architects, engineers, politician, artists and so on... but they were also astonishingly cruel.

How do you turn the full beam on whilst driving a Volvo v40?
If your full beam doesn't stay on, make sure your light switch on the console is actually turned to "on". Unless you've had the daytime running lights disabled, then the lights will be on when switched "off" (!) and this means the full beam doesn't lock on, it only does "flash" mode. When the lights are switched "on", then the full beam should stay on.
