Catholics pray with the sign of the cross - in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Is this wrong?
Is there a biblical basis for Christians to pray with the sign of the cross?
Matthew 28:19 - 20
NLT - 19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. 20 Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

I see no harm in making the sign of the cross, at the very least, it only allows us to acknowledge fact that God is a triune God embodying three persons in one.. the Holy Trinity.
