According to The Bible, Jesus died on the Cross in order to pay for the sins of humanity. There are numerous variations of the cross as a christian symbol, but the two main themes are crosses with or without a depiction of Christ hanging on it. The reason for this is that some focus on the fact that he died on a cross to pay for our sins, while others focus on the fact that he arose from death afterwards (thus he is no longer on the cross!) and later ascended to heaven to "sit at God`s right hand".
