'Cross' in the Bible

And he who does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.

Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any one desires to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

And as they went forth they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to go with them that he might bear his cross.

and saying, Thou that destroyest the temple and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou art Son of God, descend from the cross.

He saved others, himself he cannot save. He is King of Israel: let him descend now from the cross, and we will believe on him.
