The Cross Is an Idol

God commanded us not to make an idol in the form of anything in heaven and the earth beneath, nor to worship them through the ten commandments of God.

Ex 20:4-5
"You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.
You shall not bow down to them or worship them;

However, most churches in the world regard the cross as a symbol of Christianity. They also insist that the cross is not an idol.

According to the bible and the history of Christianity, what they are doing with the cross is idolatry.
In the time of the early church, the cross was an execution tool for criminals. At that time, the early Christians never held the cross sacred because of this reason.
Originally, the cross which was introduced into the church at the time of Constantine was an idol symbolizing paganism.
Then, what attitude should we have toward the cross?

1 Pet 1:18-19
For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers,
but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.

We should reject the cross and any other idols and value the new covenant which was established by Christ by participating in the blood of Christ.
