Jerusalem Cross - also called the Crusader's Cross or Cantonee Cross is a cross with equal arms, each ending in a small crossbar. The Jerusalem Cross represents Christ's mission, one that started in Jerusalem, to spread the Gospel worldwide.
The Jerusalem Cross was used as a coat of arms for the Latin Kingdom in Jerusalem. It was referred to as the "Crusaders Cross." The four smaller crosses symbolize the four corners of the earth, or four Gospels, beginning in Jerusalem. The large cross symbolizes the person of Christ.
