MY CHEST PEICE...
Rosary (without Jesus on the cross or Mary on the stone) represents my Catholic upbringing but my new found faith as a NON-DENOMONATIONAL Christian that doesn't require a religious denomonation to believe in God.
The Angel and Demon represent the internal struggle between good and evil within ones soul as described in Romans 7:18-25
18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me.
21 So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. 22 For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, 23 but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members. 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.
Together they represent the struggle and balance in my own faith. A non-denominational belief we should BELIEVE IN WHAT FAITH AND RELIGION TRY TO TEACH, WITHOUT RIGMAROLE... Piety is not what the lessons bring to people. It's the mistake they bring to the lessons.
