Some think that the fish symbol was used by early persecuted Christians as a secret sign to indicate their faith to other Christians, and to mark places where worship would take place. It is a reminder to us that Jesus died for our sins, and that many of our brothers and sisters around the world today are dying or being persecuted for their faith, and must even keep their faith secret. When we see the fish, let's pray for them. The globe surmounted by the cross. At this present time God is extending His Kingdom through the preaching of the Gospel.
Men are free to accept or reject the message.
But this age will eventually come to an end, and Jesus shall reign in person and in power, and every knee shall bow to Him on earth, and beneath the earth, and above the earth, and every tongue shall confess that He is Lord of Lords and King of Kings, and every earthly government or kingdom shall acknowledge His authority and His law. So, this tree at the front of the church is not a Christmas tree with shiny balls, and reindeer and Santa Clauses, but it is a Chrismon tree, and every ornament on the tree is a symbol, or a monogram of Jesus, and we place it here in His honor.
