The symbol
of the United Church
of Christ comprises a crown, cross
and orb enclosed within a double
oval bearing the name of the church
and the prayer of Jesus, "That they
may all be
one" (John 17:21). It is
based
on an ancient Christian symbol
called the "Cross of Victory" or the
"Cross Triumphant." The crown
symbolizes the sovereignty of Christ. The cross recalls the suffering of
Christ
his arms outstretched on the
wood of the cross—for the salvation
of humanity. The orb, divided into
three parts,
reminds us of Jesus'
command to be his "witnesses in
Jerusalem and in all Judea
and Samaria and to the ends of the
earth" (Acts 1:8). The verse from
Scripture reflects our
historic
commitment to the restoration of
unity among the separated churches
of Jesus Christ.
