The Significance of Jesus Christ Nymphios

Our Lord is the Bridegroom of the Church and of every human soul. By taking the human form he came to this world from its immense love to people, to save us from death and sin. Jesus was humiliated and led to the martyrdom of the Crucifixion to uplift the human. Christ Himself likened His coming with marriage, and Himself with a Bridegroom. The significance of this likeness is that of a «sacred marriage» of God and humanity takes place in the face of Christ. On the head he has the crown of thorns worn by the soldiers who wanted to humiliate him. The parable of Jesus is caused by the physical but also the mental pain that he is experiencing. He carries the sin of the world on his shoulders and ultimately sacrificed himself on the cross for salvation the of whole mankind.It is the tradition of the Church to depict "God is with us" by having the a large Pantocrator icon inside of the central dome, or ceiling of the church.
