From the
Minister's study
GARWOQD G. RUST:
,St. George `s Anglican Church
A symbol of division
. Protestants, when you think
about it, have taken a strange
attitude to the crucifix.
Protestant theology is absolutely
den£remm cd—VOli Tie-deat i of Vhrlst
as the atoning power of God for
" man's redemption. °
My own Anglican Church has
stated the centrality ,of thesCross
in the consecration ;prayer.. at
n4.°rera°TavTa •
holy'" Communion. It is, .a
confessions of 'faith that Jesus
"made there, by his, own
,i, oblation of himself once offered,
a full, perfect, and sufficient
sacrifice, .oblation • and
satisfaction, for the sins of 'the
• whole world."`
This is a fine summary of
what St. Paul and other New
• Testament writers believed
about the crucifixion of Jesus.
.I think ' most , Protestant
churches would echo these
words in their own statements of
faith as to the meaning of the
Cross.
Is it not curious, then, that
• we have shied away `from
representing Jesus crucified in
the 'ornaments and decor of our
churches? The crucifix' is looked
upon as a particular symbol of
the Roman Catholic Church, and
has, become a symbol of our
* _divisions . rather --than .of our
;unity in the faith._
There are, T .know, several
. reasons for this that reach back
into the religious controversies
of the sixteenth century. It is a
r harne'that-by ` zer fatin"g the

differences we are prevented
from acknowledging that the'
crucifix is a serious and 'valid
helpto our own devotions.
-the iproblem--is 'sits -serious -tor-,
'Roman Catholics because the
crucifix is is practically` a badge
of honor •, for them y that iS, they
are ' not, in some cases, able to
'seeits limitations as a Christian, `
With both Roman Catholics
and Protestants then, it is all or
nothing, We value the crucifix or
we dislike it. The whole thing is
emotional bigotry which distorts
faith and restricts devotion.
I am prompted to write about
this subject because recently I
bought 'a srziall reproduction of
Salvador • Dali's beautiful
painting of "The Christ of St.
John of the Cross."
The painting depicts Jesus on
the Cross, and suspended above
theblue waters of the Sea of
Galilee. The crucifix is painted
against a black sky, but below it
and illuminating the figure of
Jesus is the golden light of the
rising sun.
The crucifix dominates the
painting. Far below it we see
people on the shores of Galilee
- a fisherman with his net, a
man ..standing by his.-beat,-.axi.clp
.4anothe :.:personoivalking.L=4he.,
-beach.
What makes the picture most
,striking and unusual is that we
do not see the face of Jesus.
From- his --hands; -'nailed--to--the-
cross, we receive an impression
of the hrarror of crucifixion. But
