"I know He turned fish into loaves of bread to feed The 5000, but what does that mean for me?"
Well I'm glad you asked, fellow !christians! There is much more to the symbol of the fish than the story of that miracle!
Of course we know that the Savior, God's Son, Jesus Christ performed this miracle.
But what happens if we read the original Greek language of the New Testament?
Well, if we translate "Jesus Christ, God's Son, Savior" back into Biblical Greek, it becomes "Ἰησοῦς Χρῑστός Θεοῦ Υἱός Σωτήρ."
Well what does this mean for me?
Well how about we simply things by only looking at the first letter of each word in the phrase?
Well it turns out that IXΘYΣ is the Greek word for...
You guessed it!
FISH!
Also, what symbol do we make when we cross our fingers?
You guessed right again! The sign of the IXΘYΣ! Ummm I meant FISH!
The next time you honk at someone in traffic, maybe double-check! You might just be honking at someone whose only sin is being late for church!
