SILVER JEWELRY The symbol of the Presbyterian Church (USA

SILVER JEWELRY
from the
workshop of
MARIO
In Honduras
The seal of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is a symbolic
statement of our heritage and identity. The basic symbols in the
seal are the cross, Scripture, dove and flames.
The cross is the dominant structural and theological element in
the design; it is the universal symbol of the Christian Church. The
cross represents the incarnate love of God in Jesus Christ, and
his passion and resurrection. The Celtic cross has long been
associated with Presbyterian history and so it is the form of the
cross used in the seal of our church,
Starting at the bottom of the cross there is first the visual image of
a lectern or pulpit, which illustrates the importance of preaching
in the Presbyterian Church. Across the top of the pulpit, and
forming the arms of the cross, is an open book, which reflects the
emphasis that the Reformed tradition has placed on the role of
Scripture as a means of knowing God's word. A descending
dove forms the upper portion of the cross. This is the symbol of
the Holy Spirit. We believe that the Holy Spirit has a vital role in
both inspiring and interpreting the Scriptures in the life of the
church. The dove also symbolizes Christ's baptism by John and
the peace and wholeness which his death and resurrection bring
to our world.

Beside the lower part of the cross are two flames which form a
triangle, the traditional symbol of the Trinity. The flames also
reflect both books of the Bible. In the Old Testament, God spoke
to Moses from the burning bush. In the New Testament, Christ
manifested himself to his apostles at Pentecost and charged them
to be messengers of the good news of God's love for all people.
(The symbol for Pentecost is the flame,)
The triangle also suggests the nature of Presbyterian
government, which divides authority between ministers of the
Word and laypersons and between different governing bodies.
This idea is based on the Reformed emphasis on the covenant,
which God establishes with people to affirm God's enduring love
and to call us to faith and obedience to Jesus Christ.
