Description
The Chi Rho symbol ,which consists of two (capital) letters – chi and rho,was employed by early Christians to symbolize both Jesus Christ and Christianity. It is attributed to Constantine I, the Roman Emperor who used it as a military symbol (4th century AD).
It is an old Christian symbol—a Christian monogram or Christogram formed by combining the first two letters of the Greek word ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ , which means “Christ.” In Christian, the Chi Rho is often depicted flanked by the Greek letters α – “alpha” and ω – “omega”, symbolizing Jesus Christ and referring us to the text of the Apocalypse: I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. (Rev 1:8).
