Discover a symbolic meaning for each of the wire colors!
Everyday objects can carry very special symbolism. |
Christians often find special symbolism in many simple everyday objects, such as the outline of a fish.
We can even find a special symbolism in the simple colors of wires in a telephone cable!
Beyond the technical relevance of the wire colors, each color can symbolize something much more significant to Christians.Different people have different interpretations, but here are mine:
| Symbolizes | ||
 |
Christ's purity, holiness, virtue, and forgiveness | |
 |
Salvation through the Blood of Jesus | |
 |
Sin, which separates us from God | |
 |
The glow of Christ's Love, providing hope through the promise of eternal life | |
 |
God's grace | |
 |
Confession and baptism by water and the Holy Spirit | |
 |
Praising God in joy and thanksgiving | |
 |
Spiritual growth | |
 |
The Cross and Christ bearing the burden of our sins | |
 |
A life built on the solid rock of faith in Christ |

You also might be asking "Why do you have this on your web site? Do you think
you are better than other people?" No, completely the opposite. I'm a sinner,
just like everyone else, but I am among the many who have accepted the gift of
salvation and feel it is part of my responsibility to share that gift with as
many people as possible. I have found a poem that expresses exactly how I feel: When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not shouting, "I've been saved!" I'm whispering, "I get lost! That's why I chose this way" When I say, "I am a Christian" I don't speak with human pride I'm confessing that I stumble- Needing God to be my guide When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong I'm professing that I'm weak And pray for strength to carry on When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of success I'm admitting that I've failed And cannot ever pay the debt When I say, "I am a Christian" I don't think I know it all I submit to my confusion Asking humbly to be taught When I say, "I am a Christian" I'm not claiming to be perfect My flaws are all too visible But God believes I'm worth it When I say, "I am a Christian" I still feel the sting of pain I have my share of heartache, Which is why I seek His name When I say, "I am a Christian" I do not wish to judge I have no authority...
