The arms show the Lamb of the Book of Revelation, slaughtered but victorious, the one who is the lamp for the Church (Rev 5:6; 21:23). The victory of Christ over sin and death through his sacrifice is reflected in the rays of power around his head (Rev 5:12; 17:14). The Lamb rests on a plain and unadorned wooden altar, evoking a life of simplicity, a life that wants to be spent in service signalling everyone to the Lamb, Christ the Savior. Finally, the Lamb also refers to Bishop Betancourt’s home, [[Puerto Rico]], whose coat of arms is one of the oldest still in use in the New World. | The arms show the Lamb of the Book of Revelation, slaughtered but victorious, the one who is the lamp for the Church (Rev 5:6; 21:23).
