It's on the top of the crucifixes they use in their shrines to indicate the Father's providence even in the place and event that the world thought was the final defeat of God himself. I found their use quite beautiful and moving, but what you described is very odd.<BR/><BR/>Pax Christi,<BR/>JosephJosephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10093843101744855135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-36058473602822161582008-08-18T16:25:00.000-04:002008-08-18T16:25:00.000-04:00They still use the upside down cross as a symbol o...They still use the upside down cross as a symbol of the papacy.

In fact, it's about 8 miles North of you.<BR/><BR/>I agree that we should refrain from many of the older symbols. The one we should concentrate on is the crucifix. Sad that many of the churches I remember used to have a large crucifix, some 10 feet tall. Now we are lucky to see one a foot or two in an obscure place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-36727630579361662162008-08-18T12:17:00.000-04:002008-08-18T12:17:00.000-04:00Maurus-I "fairness" to the Masons, I believe (as J...Maurus-<BR/><BR/>I "fairness" to the Masons, I believe (as Jeff Miller pointed out above) that the symbol was originally a Christian one until taken over by the Masons. I have also heard that centuries ago the upside down cross was the symbol of the papacy (Peter being crucified upside down and all that) until the Satanists took it over. Better just to not use either of these symbols anymore.<BR/><BR/>Jeff-<BR/><BR/>If a person wants to have a big eyeball, I think that's fine.

I believe it has always been a crucifix, with or without the Corpus.<BR/><BR/>I, too, know of a church (Catholic) that has stained glass windows of modern patterns. In one of them, near the top, is a small emblem not unlike what you have described. If you were to look closely at this emblem, what appears to be the symbol of the eye of the Father is in fact not. It is so closely patterned after the symbol for the Freemasons that if you looked at the older versions of their emblem you would see a striking similarity.<BR/><BR/>The more we pay attention and see things of this nature, the more one will understand the infiltration of evil and those who stand in favor of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-34250650481886216732008-08-17T15:02:00.000-04:002008-08-17T15:02:00.000-04:00Animal sacrifice can't be too far away now.Animal sacrifice can't be too far away now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-79604341965535752952008-08-17T14:45:00.000-04:002008-08-17T14:45:00.000-04:00Considering the history of the "eye of providence"...Considering the history of the "eye of providence" it is certainly questionable for it's use since in the last couple of centuries has been associated with the Masons.
