When Jesus Christ was crucified, was He nailed to a cross or a stake?





This world’s professing Christianity has traditionally taught that Christ died on a cross (a profane symbol that has been widely used by many pagan religions). Since Christ Himself warned against blindly following the traditions of men (Mark 7:6-7), we must not make assumptions.





In the gospel accounts, the Bible says that Christ was nailed to a cross. The Greek word used for “cross” is stauros, which means “stake, pole, upright post or cross.” Interestingly, other scriptures record that Christ was nailed to a tree (I Peter 2:24; Acts 5:30, 10:39, 13:29). The Greek word used in these verses, xulon, means “timber, stick, club, tree or other wooden article or substance.”





In ancient times, Roman soldiers used to crucify people using wooden structures of various shapes. Sometimes they used upright stakes or poles. Other times they used wooden crosses by attaching beams either at or just below the top.





The Bible does not specify the exact shape of the “stauros” or “xulon” on which Christ was crucified. If God thought it was important for us to know, He clearly would have recorded it, leaving us no doubts. The shape is not important, but Christ’s sacrifice is!
You're an idiot. If you don't have any religious beliefs or respect for others' then just keep your distasteful comments to yourself.





And as one other person said on here, when you meet your maker, you'll have Him to answer to -- if you keep talking the way you are, it'll be a hot time for eternity for you, buddy boy.
A little sacrilegious and mocking God is not a wise thing for one to do and is not apprciated by me and many others. Idiots never cease to amaze me. I have a great sense of humor, even crude sometimes, but that crosses the line.
2bornot2b - Does that mean women can mock god all they want and never have any negative karma? Cuz you know, ';men'; isn't gender neutral. Or do women not even exist in the Bible besides being servants or slaves?
thanks for proving you are a moron.





';Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts...';


(2 Peter 3:3)
Crosses are generally made of thick wooden beams, firmly staked into the ground in a premade hole. No way it's going to swing any way.
I know that you are trying to be shocking with your joke, but it's kind of lame since it doesn't even make sense on a literal level. It was probably funnier in your head.
No John. He did not swing at all for He was nailed to the cross for all of the sins of the whole world. Ephesians 2:8,9
(Galatians 6:7) Do not be misled: God is not one to be mocked. For whatever a man is sowing, this he will also reap;
It`s where the Parallel bars originated from, did`nt you know?
You can ask him when you have to face him. I pray you like your answer
I would say that the Roman soldiers made sure the nails were well driven in! Crucifxion was a reality
