“Another reason for not using iconized crosses is our emphasis on the complete miracle of Christ’s mission—His glorious Resurrection as well as His sacrificial suffering and death. In underscoring that relationship, I note two pieces of art that serve as backdrops for the First Presidency and Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in their sacred weekly temple meetings each Thursday in Salt Lake City. These portrayals serve as constant reminders to us of the price that was paid and the victory that was won by Him whose servants we are.”
— Jeffery R. Holland
The cross is a symbol of the atonement and death of Christ however it doesn’t show the entire mission of Christ. His mission also includes His resurrection and the cross does not depict that.
