[edit] Summary

The Chi-Rho & Alpha-Omega symbol was used by the Early Christians as far back as the Apostles. It represents the Greek letters X (Chi), P (Rho), A (Alpha) and W (Omega). Chi and Rho are the first two Greek letters of the name Christ and Alpha and Omega refer to the Book of Revelation 22:13 - "I am Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End." The image was drawn by Rev. Dr. Brian Mackenzie-Hanson for the Arian Catholic Website: http://www.holy-catholic.org , see Arian Catholic.
