Diamond Cross Necklace Pendant

In recent years Christianity has suffered a blow at the hands of the United States Supreme Court.  Schools have been barred from saying prayers at sporting events, activists are lobbying to take “one nation under God” out of the pledge of allegiance, a judge in Alabama had to remove the Ten Commandments from the front of the courthouse, and God forbid you should say grace before meals at a public gathering.  Saying the Lord’s Prayer at invocations is now forbidden and Christmas, the celebration of Christ’s birth is no longer Christmas, it is now “the holidays.”  Christians, there is something you can do to counteract this very public attack on our faith.  Wear your cross necklace visibly with dignity and pride.

Christian jewelry does not have to be ostentatious to be meaningful.  You can wear a simple, yet elegant cross necklace with almost any attire.  If you are at a formal or semi formal gathering, a gold cross necklace, a white gold cross necklace or even a diamond cross necklace would adorn your neck with beauty and grace while making a statement of faith.  It is not necessary to be flamboyant to get your point across.  Simplicity often speaks louder than words.

I, personally, would like to start a movement where every Christian wore a large wooden cross necklace with their every day clothing.  Of course I know I am being unrealistic but I envision our lawmakers taking notice of millions upon millions of Americans “protesting” silently with a highly visible symbol that speaks for itself.  Perhaps the larger the cross necklace the louder our silence would speak.  Anyways, it’s a thought.

A silver cross necklace is lovely with casual wear and can also be worn with evening apparel.  It is not necessary to spend a small fortune on a cross necklace or a cross pendant.  If you have been wanting to wear a cross and yet don’t have the financial resources to buy gold, sterling silver is less expensive and can be quite exquisite.  You don’t have to wear a gold cross necklace to be identified as a Christian, but if you have your heart set on gold look for sales and discounts.  There are many online discount and wholesale jewelry sites where you can realize a huge savings in fine gold jewelry.  Shop around a bit an you are sure to find a gold cross pendant or necklace within your means.

Whether you are looking for something flashy or something understated and elegant, you can easily find a cross necklace to wear as a sign of your faith.  I believe that Christians need to take up a common front and display their faith proudly and boldly.  Yes, you can always write to your congressmen and senators but it needs to start somewhere.  They can hardly fail to notice ever growing numbers of people visibly wearing a cross necklace.  Christian jewelry is your statement on a private level.  It’s up to them to take our constitutional rights before the assembly.
