Ichthys: The Original Sign of Faith Under Fire

This fish isn’t just a quirky emblem; it’s a covert symbol from the days when professing Christ could get you fed to the lions. 

The letters ΙΧΘΥΣ—spelling out Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior”—are a battle cry of faith that survived persecution, trials, and even the Roman Empire. 

 

In a TEOTWAWKI scenario, wear this hat as a reminder that faith survives even when the world crumbles. The Ichthys represents a belief that won’t be swallowed, even when the stakes are high.

 

 

Schooling TIME!!!

 

The Ichthys symbol, also known as the "Jesus Fish," was a secret symbol used by early Christians to identify themselves in times of persecution. The letters inside—ΙΧΘΥΣ (Ichthys)—are an acronym in Greek:

  • Iota (Ι) for Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς) — Jesus
  • Chi (Χ) for Christos (Χριστός) — Christ
  • Theta (Θ) for Theou (Θεοῦ) — of God
  • Upsilon (Υ) for Yios (Υἱός) — Son
  • Sigma (Σ) for Sōtēr (Σωτήρ) — Savior

 

 

 

So, ΙΧΘΥΣ stands for "Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior."
