Description: RARE! Vintage antique square 4.5" LONG nails from the 1800's Why are nails a symbol of Christianity?The nail is most often assosciated in the Christian tradition with the crucifixion of Christ, and thus symbolize his passion. The nail also represents the Cosmic Axis, or Axis Mundi, around which the heavens rotate. This is a tradition at our church,” Gretchen said. “We have a basket of nails in the church on Ash Wednesday, and when people leave the service they are encouraged to take one and carry it with them during Lent. It’s kind of a reminder — however it works for you.” Good Friday Ritual of the Nails — UKPhoto by Ben UlrichThis service involves each member of the congregation through actions. Each worshipper receives a large nail upon arrival and is invited to interact with their nail at different points in the service. Following the reading from John 19 and Luke 23, they are invited to hold the nail for a personal reflection. Later they are invited to come forward, to approach the cross, and place or drop their nail into one of the containers at the ‘foot of the cross.’ The option of anointing with oil is included.
