The crucifix is the image of the Son of the Father. Jesus Christ is the mediator between earth and heavens, between men and the Father. <br /><br />If a priest could look into the heavens then what more if the priest will look instead to the image of the God crucified. <br /><br />The Holy Mass is the sacrifice of Jesus Christ in unbloody manner. The crucifix reminds us always that what is happening on the altar is indeed the same sacrifice on calvary.pandzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908839373696432547noreply@blogger.com
