Relics of the Lord Jesus Christ
A Relic is an object or body part from or associated with a Saint. Christ rose from the dead with his body, so he left no body remnants . However, he did leave remnants of his life and presence from during the Passion.
These include either whole or in part:
- The pillar to which he was bound while being scourged
- The crown of thorns thrust upon his head
- The stairwell he climbed with Pilate to be shown to the crowd after the scourging
- The veil with which Veronica wiped his face along the Via Dolorosa
- The cross upon which he was crucified
- The nails which fastened his hands and feet to the cross
- The shroud in which he was buried
