on my rosary there is a letter p on the top of the cross above jesus. what does this p stand for?

Answer 1

probably the "trademark" of the manufacturer - :-)

Answer 2

It is the Greek letter CHI for Christos, Christ. It is usually used with the Greek letter RHO, which looks like "X" and stands for Rei or king. In other words, Christ, King. Remember the tabla Pilate ordered placed on the cross, INRI? They are the Latin initials for Jesu Nazoreum, Rex Judoreum; Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews. This is just the same meaning in an even more shortened form.

Answer 3

If it looks like this:

It is the Chi Rho. These are Greek letters which form the monogram for Christ. It's the first 2 letters. Ch and R.

It is an abbreviation for King of the Jews. Next you go to mass look at the Crucifix right over His head you will see the whole inscription.

Answer 5

Perpetual indulgence if you pray the entire Rosary in one sitting.

Answer 6

He was crucified under Pontious Pilate, but it could stand for pewter what the cross is made of.

Answer 7

it is from the Greek and it is written out over the cross with his name first from the Greek letter P =P (Jesus) king of the Jews

this is how I as born a Jew came to Catholic Charismatic and got the way to pray-from the heart=I prayed Jesus I am sorry for my sins-even one lie, come into my heart and help me, guide me, amen

He said he would in Revelation 3:19&20 "I love you and ask you to repent and turn from sin to me quickly, Behold I stand at your heart door and knock if you ask me in, I will come in to be your friend."
what helped me to make the most important decision of my life=I'm grateful to God for my salvation-and his amazin grace=this is what has helped me not to forget the most important things in life=yes and I have prayed and seen miracles to deliver me

many know in their heart Jesus rescued them at points in their life-even for many already as in the salvation message for heaven too when we believe.

many life saving events and spiritually we are dead till we believe-these are even recorded the bible old testament is written to the Jewish people and an example to the believers in Jesus.

but as in my life too-there is still truth and error-truth from the word of God as Jesus says -Look at Jim Jones-throwing down the bible as saying anyone that believes the paper God leave-and then going to the cool aid death deal and moving the followers to South America.

Remember to not forget-the truth!

this is more to help me remember -by prayer the truth=yes and I have prayed and seen miracles to deliver me


God is God and can do anything-even manifest himself in the form of a man-as promised-Isaiah 53 "He will be rejected and lay down his life to make atonment for our sins."

His salvation his death redemption for us-while saying Jesus was without sin born from a virgin to live pure and die for our sins

this is how I as a Jew came to know Jesus too=as promised Jesus is God and gives good peace & gives good advice = Isaiah 9:6
"Unto us a child will be born, a son given and he will be almighty God, the wonderful counselor, and the prince of peace.


this is what helped me to prepare for life and my future, and it works=Romans 1 tells me to be thankful and not worship the created but to worship the creator.

Its time you too -praying for you, David
