I always thought something was missing...

It even comes overloaded with symbolism!


The Lifted Cross

THE CROSS OF
JESUS CHRIST
(New Testament)

THE CROSS demonstrates God’s love for humanity by offering His Son for our salvation. The Statue of Liberty represents America exalting Christ and recognizing that He alone is the way to God and the source of true liberation in all areas of life.


The Seven
Spiked Crown

THE SEVEN REDEMPTIVE
NAMES OF CHRIST

THE GOLD SEVEN-SPIKED CROWN demonstrates God’s benefits for man when he receives Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Each spike reflects one of the seven redemptive names of God. These names reveal His character. 1) God is our Provider. 2) God is our Healer. 3) God is our Peace. 4) God is our Victory. 5) God is always Present. 6) God is our Righteousness. 7) God is our Sanctifier.


The Two Tablets
of Stone

THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
(Old Testament)

THE TABLETS OF STONE represents the Ten Commandments and the importance of God’s laws in society to establish morality and values. Scripture says that if we reject God’s laws, then He will reject us.



The Tear
DEMONSTRATES HER CONCERN
FOR AMERICA

THE TEAR represents Lady Liberation’s despair over America’s rapid decline from its Judeo-Christian values. She weeps for our nation’s self-destruction as the protective hand of God is removed. Yet, she realizes that there is still hope for America if we return to God through Jesus Christ.



The Robe
GOD'S RIGHTEOUSNESS


The Brick Pedestal
HER STAND FOR LIBERTY

THE PEDESTAL holds the tomb of Christ.



The Broken Chain
FREEDOM FROM BONDAGE

THE BROKEN CHAIN is wrapped around her left ankle and hangs over the left edge of the pedestal. It symbolizes freedom of any and all bondage. It is God’s desire to see mankind liberated in every area of life.



The Dove
THE HOLY SPIRIT

THE DOVE symbolizes the Holy Spirit. The Word of God says that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2 Corinthians 3:17).
