The Sign of the Fish

Today's born-again Christians often display a sketch of a fish to show their faith. This is not just because the Bible calls the Apostles fishers of men. It is because the letters if the Greek word for fish, “ichthus”, stand for the Greek phrase “Iesous Christos Theou Uios Soter” (Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour). The symbol appears in Christian art from the 2nd century AD as a symbol of Christ and the newly baptised.
