“By the fourth and fifth centuries, a cross was being introduced as a symbol of generalized Christianity, but ours is not a “generalized Christianity.” Being neither Catholic nor Protestant, we are, rather, a restored church, the restored New Testament Church. Thus, our origins and our authority go back before the time of councils, creeds, and iconography. In this sense, the absence of a symbol that was late coming into common use is yet another evidence that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is a restoration of true Christian beginnings.”
— Jeffery R. Holland
The cross was at one point introduced to general Christianity, but The Church of Jesus Christ is not apart of general Christianity. The church of Christ holds a fulness of His gospel. His church has been restored to the earth, which means The Church of Jesus Christ isn’t just another Christian church, it is THE literal church of Jesus Christ. This is one of the reasons why Jesus Christ’s church does not use the cross as a symbol.
