The Cross is a made up symbol related to Christianity 300 years past Jesus' death. It was not used by Christians prior to the Romans associated it with Christianity.
Jews used it to curse those they killed or considered rotten. The cross has nothing to do with Christ.
I'm not gonna dive into the absurdities of God demanding that Christ die for sin as if God alone doesn't have the power to forgive individuals on an individual basis.
With that written, early Christians did not use the cross. It appeared in the Roman empire and IF it were attributed to Christ, it would have been used by his followers immediately after his death. It was not. Just like the Catholic church, it is a Roman association and has nothing to do with Christianity.
In fact, there are text that outright deny the use of a cross as public execution at the time due to lack of timber but rather a stake where people were nailed with their hands above their head and feet hanging below the waste where the body was vertical entirely.
You're understanding of Christianity is heavily polluted by the Catholic church which is arguably a top contender for corruption.
Not sure what you don't understand. There is no mention of a cross in the bible lol. The cross has nothing to do with Christianity because it wasn't used and was associated centuries AD. This isn't difficult.
