There is no verse in the bible that states that God ordered His people to make the sign of the cross!What is written in the bible is this: A prophecy that there will be people who will receive the mark of the "anti-Christ" with the Right hands and foreheads.
there is a prophecy in the bible that whoever will governed by the power of the beast or anti Christ, will be given a mark in their foreheads and right hand just like what is written in the book of Revelation 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their forehead:
The mark in the forehead and the right hand pertains to what the Catholics call as the"sign of the cross" . Have you ever noticed that nobody makes the sign of the Cross with their left hand?Even left handed people do the signed of the cross with their right hands. This the realization of the prophecy in the bible.

The sign of the cross permeates the scriptures of both the old and new testaments.
What a shame many "bible believers" can't see it.

The cross symbol is taken from the initial letter for the god Tammuz.
Tammuz was another name for Nimrod, whom the Bible calls "a mighty hunter in opposition to Jehovah", the True God. (Genesis 10:9 and Psalms 83:18)
Surely this proves that it is not a symbol God would approve of in worship? A true christian would not venerate it.
Additionally Jesus was crucified on a stake (Greek "Sturos" - beam) not a cross. (Acts 5:30 King James Bible)
Had Jesus been murdered with a weapon would true lovers of him venerate or idolise a gun or sword, wearing miniature replica's of such in gold or silver around their necks? I think not!
Yet millions of acclaimed Christians do wear and worship what they believe Jesus died on, - very strange!

No, but "Trinity" and "Incarnation" aren't written in the Bible either -- yet all Christians believe in them.
