Cross Of St. Peter

Peter is believed to have been crucified upside down at his own request, as he did not feel worthy to die the same way as Jesus. Therefore many Christian sects use this cross as a symbol of humility.

The Cross of St. Peter (Petrine Cross or Peter's Cross) is an inverted Latin cross traditionally used as a Christian symbol, but in recent times also used widely and incorrectly as an anti-Christ symbol, a common but popular misconception. The correct symbolism for the anti-Christ is a inverted crucifix with Jesus Christ hung inverted upon the crucifix.

It is often associated with Satanism and anti-religious attitudes, as it is considered to represent the opposite of Christianity by inverting its primary symbol, the Latin Cross.

Cross And Crown

The Cross and Crown is a traditional Christian symbol, appears in many churches , that has aswell been used in heraldry.It is generally interpreted as symbolizing reward in heaven (the crown) coming after the trials in this life (the cross). The attribute appears in the seal of the Church of Christ, Scientist, where it is surrounded by the words "Heal the Sick, Cleanse the Lepers, Raise the Dead, Cast Out Demons", from the Gospel of Matthew, 10:8. In this attribute the crown stands for victory over death.

Tudor Rose Symbol

The Tudor rose (or Union Rose) is the traditional floral heraldic symbol of England and takes its name and origins from the Tudor dynasty.

It comes from the English War of the Roses between the royal houses of Lancaster (red rose emblem) and York (white rose). The wars ended when Henry Tudor (later Henry VII) of Lancaster defeated Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field then married Elizabeth of York to unite the two warring factions.

The marriage between the two houses of York and Lancaster was commemorated by the creation of the heraldically beautiful Tudor Rose - a White rose in the centre of a Red rose. The Tudor Rose is now the historical badge of England and also appears in the heraldic badge of the United Kingdom.

Celtic Cross

A Celtic Cross (Irish cros Cheilteach, Welsh croes Celtaidd) is a symbol that combines a cross with a ring surrounding it.
The earlier Celtic cross has a ring that joins the arms for supporting the structure of the cross and at times the bottom would be rectangular to give a strong base to the structure.
Celtic-cross is generally used symbol of Christianity but the history of this symbol can be dated back beyond the existence of Christianity. The four arms in the cross signify the four elements namely earth, water, air and fire; the four directions east west north south and the essential four parts of a human body. Mind, heart and soul.
In Germany, the Celtic cross was adopted by a neo-Nazi party, so the government banned its public display.

Caduceus

The caduceus (pronounced from Greek "karykeion," κηρύκειον meaning "herald.")

The caduceus served as the symbol of Hermes and Mercury, the Greek and Roman messenger gods. The caduceus was the sign of a herald and hence a logical symbol for the messenger. However, because of a misconception, the caduceus became the sign of the US Army Medical Corps. The Medical Corps should have chosen the symbol of medicine, which is the rod of Aesculapius , which has only one snake and no wings atop it. No wings were necessary since the essence of medicine is not speed. The single serpent that could shed its skin and emerge in full vigor represents the renewal of youth and health.

The caduceus with its pair of snakes coiled about each other bears some resemblance to the structure of DNA, the double helix, which was only discovered in modern times (in 1953, if that is still in "modern times").

Cross And Flame - Symbol Of The Methodist Church

Symbol of The Methodist Church and the Evangelical United Brethren Church. It relates The United Methodist church to God through Christ (cross) and the Holy Spirit (flame). The flame is a reminder of Pentecost when witnesses were unified by the power of the Holy Spirit and saw "tongues, as of fire".The two tongues of a single flame may also be understood to represent the union of two denominations.

The history and significance of the Cross and Flame emblem are as rich and diverse as The United Methodist Church. The insignia's birth quickly followed the union of two denominations in 1968: The Methodist Church and the Evangelical United Brethren Church.

Calligraphic Symbol For Allah

Allah is the Arabic word for God. While the term is best known in the West for its use by Muslims as a reference to God, it is used by Arabic speaking people of all Abrahamic faiths, including Christians and Jews, in reference to "God". The appellation was aswell used by pagan Meccans as a reference to the creator-god, possibly the absolute deity in pre-Islamic Arabia.

The term Allāh is derived from a contraction of the Arabic definite article al- "the" and ʼilāh "deity, god" to al-lāh meaning "the deity, God" (ho theos monos).Cognates of the name "Allāh" exist in other semitic languages, including Hebrew and Aramic.
