As we look at our flag. Let's remember what the meaning crest is, <br />Here we go let's as a Salvationist let's see if we can pass this quiz, <br /> <br />Can we think of what makes up the Crest? <br />Well let's all try to pass this, so let's do our best. <br /> <br />What is the meaning of the Cross? <br />The cross of the Lord Jesus Christ as he hung, before they took Him to His final doss. <br /> <br />What is the meaning of the S? <br />The S stands for the Salvation from sin through Jesus. <br /> <br />What is the meaning of the Ray on the outside of the circle? <br />The Ray stands for the Fire of the Holy Spirit in one day will lead us to something wonderful. <br /> <br />What is the meaning of the dots? <br />The dots stand for the Truth of the Gospel; this is something we need to hear because at times we do not care a jot. <br /> <br />What is the meaning of the crossed swords? <br />The Cross swords stand for the Salvation War, and it is something we need to protect our gourds. <br /> <br />What is the meaning of the red for the blood and the yellow for the fire? <br />The Blood stands for the Blood Jesus Shed, and the Fire stands for the Fire of the Holy Spirit because this was Williams Booth's desire. <br /> <br />Well I hope we all either recall the S. A.‘s history or learned something from reading this today, <br />Because this will get us back to our old beliefs and our past and let us understand of what they are trying to say.<br /><br />Frank Pulver<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/meaning-of-the-salvation-army-crest/
