The figure 8 represents a Mobius Strip - a figure that appears to have 2 sides, but in reality is has one one side & one ede - and is infinite with no end.

   - this represents our infinite relationship to God with no beginning & no ending; it existed before our bit & after our death. 

“Be still and know that I am God,

I will be exalted among the Nations

I will be exalted in the earth. 

The Lord Almighty is with us; 

the God of Jacob is our Fortress”
