There are differing answers to this question depending upon who you ask. Some do not believe any part of the cross has been found. Indeed, many debate whether Jesus died on a Cross or a tree/stake.
In any event, during the reign of Emperor Constantine of the Roman Empire, his sister, Helena (I believe) was highly motivated to search for locations, relics, stories related to the Crucifixion of Christ. Many credit her with finding a piece of the original Cross.
The True Cross of Jesus is believed by some to be located in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, Israel.
No. If this were true, Jesus would not have been nailed to the cross.
St. Helena
According to tradition, the mother of Constantine found the True Cross.
Yes.
It was founded on the Bible. Jesus Christ is the true Savior of the world. He died on the cross for all of the world's sins. If you are not saved by the grace of Jesus Christ I encourage you to ask someone about salvation, or find a Bible to learn more about Him. :)
Jesus claimed He was the Messiah the Savior and it is TRUE! He died on the cross that we would be recoincilated with Him! HOW AMAZING!!!
The exact cross where Jesus died, known as the True Cross, is not known to still exist on earth. However, pieces of the cross have been purportedly collected and distributed to different churches and institutions around the world as relics.
Muslims don't like the cross symbols because they don't believe that Jesus died on the cross so they appove of crosses.
The cross is a symbol of Jesus, just like the flag is a symbol of a country. Because nobody knows what Jesus looked like, when we look at the cross we remember how Jesus hung on the cross, paid for our sins, died, then rose again. The cross itself has no special meaning aside from what Jesus gave to it.
Just a few years after Jesus died on the cross. But, as soon as Christianity was founded, the Christians were tortured and slaughtered like animals.
The cross without Jesus on it signifies that He is risen & no longer on the cross..Jesus is alive.
