ICXC NIKA protection cross coin Jesus Christ wins necklace Christogram talisman

Description: Protection cross coin Jesus Christ Wins necklace Christogram talisman pendant on coin-shape oxidized sterling silver. Constantinato charm. Jesus Crist symbol pendant on coin-shape oxidized sterling silver framed within a Byzantine filigree silver gold-filled square base. A pendant designed by Rafael Santarosa based on the apotropaic symbol in the name of Jesus Crist. It is the abbreviation of the phrase "Jesus Crist is victorious" that comes from the Byzantine religious tradition. The prototype writing in byzantine letters were IC XC NI KA and they used to say it as a prayer and to bare it as a protection against evil. SYMBOLISM OF IC XC NIKA A Greek Cross surrounded by the letters IC XC NIKA as a Christian Symbol What does this Christian symbol mean? IC XC NIKA means "Jesus Christ Conquers." The IC and XC are the first and last letters in the Greek words for Jesus and Christ, respectively. NIKA is connected to the word for victory, which we know from Greek mythology and even consumerism as "Nike." Where can I find this Christian symbol? This formula was historically quite popular in the Eastern tradition, appearing frequently on Icons. Also, in traditions using wafers for communion, this formula can sometimes be found stamped on the wafers. Some denominations throughout history have incorporated this symbol in their denominational imagery, and it will sometimes appear on various vestments, banners, or engravings. It is much rarer in newer artwork since few people are familiar with its significance. It can also be seen accompanying various forms of crosses such as the Greek Cross on this page or Patriarchal crosses. Leading a Bible Study with this symbol Read Romans 8.31-39 and I Corinthians 15.50-58. Similar to the fish, this symbol can be easy to preach because it is a proclamation. This would be a great symbol to use any time you are discussing faith or hope. On the opposite side the Christogram is curved. So, we have double protection. A Christogram (Latin Monogramma Christi) is a monogram or combination of letters that forms an abbreviation for the name of Jesus Christ, traditionally used as a religious symbol within the Christian orthodox Church and Byzantine imperial war flags. One of the oldest Christograms is the Chi-Rho (☧). It consists of the superimposed Greek letters chi (Χ) and rho (Ρ), which are the first two letters of Greek Xριστός "Christ". It was displayed on the labarum military standard used by Constantine I in AD 312. The IX monogram is a similar form, using the initials of the name Ἰησοῦς (ὁ) Χριστός "Jesus (the) Christ", as is the ΙΗ monogram, using the first two letters of the name ΙΗΣΟΥΣ "JESUS" in uppercase. There were a very considerable number of variants of "Christograms" or monograms of Christ in use during the medieval period, with the boundary between specific monograms and mere scribal abbreviations. The name Jesus, spelt "ΙΗΣΟΥΣ" in Greek capitals, has the abbreviations IHS (also written JHS, IHC, or ΙΗΣ), the name Christus, spelt "ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ", has XP (and inflectional variants such as IX, XPO, XPS, XPI, XPM). In Eastern Christian tradition, the monogram ΙϹΧϹ (with Overline indicating scribal abbreviation) is used for Ἰησοῦς Χριστός in both Greek and Cyrillic tradition. Thanks for visiting my shop.
