'Fish' flag

by António Martins, 9 September 2007

Seen in the window of a nearby conservative evangelical bookstore both the familiar "Christian" flag and a new design I had not seen before – the same as the S&S but with a white "ichthys" fish symbol in place of the stars in the canton.

"Jesus is Lord" flag

by António Martins, 27 January 2002

I have seen a blue flag, with red letters (fimbriated in white): "JESUS IS LORD".

"Jesus" flag

based on image located by Paul Bassinson, 12 May 2021

This flag doesn't appear to be tied to any specific organization or movement, but is clearly Christian. I came across a Christianity-promoting Jesus flag while researching Virginia county sheriff's office flags.

Another photo of the same flag can be found at https://twitter.com/plmanseau. The source photos reveal that the word JESUS is actually inscribed within a black and white fish symbol and that there is also a small white cross fimbriated black, placed in the bottom fly, beneath the fish tail.

The flag is offered for sale by a number of online shops, such as:

A variant of the flag is offered by another online shop:

It displays the inscription in a slightly different typeface and no cross.

Kingdom of God flag

image by Scott

Thus far, 47 flags have been produced since its introduction in July of this year. Of those, about 31 have been given to various individuals, one is flying from a flagpole in my front yard and one is on my desk at work. The flag is mentioned in a brief article of the current issue of The Mennonite magazine and my hobby has become sending emails about the flag to pastors and academics locally, nationally and a few internationally, with the end goal of achieving some level of international acceptance.

Knights of the Warrior Bride flag

by Chrystian Kretowicz, 2 January 2003

FOTW was alerted to a "new" Christian flag by "treelife", as posted at http://www.cafeshops.com/cp/store.aspx?s=ChristFlag. The church behind the flag seems to have the website www.tolag.org/Knights.htm and to belong to the Assemblies of God – so the flag would possibly not be used outside that particular branch of Christianity.
Ole Andersen, 11 January 2003

The design is a narrow square red cross of St. George, overlaid with 13 gold, 7-pointed stars in a circle, all on a white field. The link is a catalog page, not specifying denomination, of assorted novelties decorated with this design (which looks, from a distance, like a Red Cross or medical logo). But nowhere were there any actual flags for sale! One is curious whether this is a square flag, as the picture implies. One also wonders about the significance of the design elements: 12 apostles plus Christ for 13 stars? The 7-pointed star is reminiscent of Masonic usage (vide US Bennington) or Islamic symbolism, but could well stand for the 7-day week and hence the Sabbath.
This [flag] has the [design] problem of the gold (or yellow) small stars on white, which similarly disappear.

The site did actually mention reasons for the "change", as well as having a link to a site which has lots of meanings associated with the flag and a particular group/program "Knights of the Warrior Bride". The whole question of "changing" the Christian Flag is of course dependent on what you think the point of such a flag is. This is more a case of one group (or more) deciding to use a different flag. The question for this group is what is the symbolism of the flag? It doesn't seem that they have a problem with the deliberate symbolism of the original Christian Flag, rather that they have a point they want to make, and they can make it using the symbolism of a new flag and some unintended symbolism of the old flag, which they presumably feel accidentally reflects/is reflected by the attitudes of many Christian groups/people. On the shop site, they say that on the old flag, the church is tucked away in a corner, with Christ within the walls, and the "harvest field" of the earth is left outside. The "new flag" is meant to show Christ throughout the 4 corners of the earth, (with the stars representing the church?) If you see the purpose of a Christian flag as to be a symbol to remind/teach people of certain things, this would probably be a good reason for a new flag. If you see the purpose of the flag as to represent God's people, then you may see the new flag as a better symbol. Whether it is worth "changing" the flag would depend on how much the "original" is seen as the Christian Flag, rather than just a flag which symbolises Christianity.

On the Knights of the Warrior Bride site, we read that "we" are the stars in the dark world. There are 13, representing
i) "we" (Christians, or KWB?) as the 13th tribe
ii) The KWB program where each person should "pattern themselves after Christ, who is the Bright and Morning Star" and disciple 12 others to do the same.
iii) The "Thirteen Commandments" – the 10, and the 3 "love commandments" given by Jesus (two of which, sometimes said to summarise the 10, are actually in Deuteronomy and then quoted by Jesus, the third being the "new commandment" to "love one another as I have loved you")

The circle of stars represent
i) sharing the same centre (Christ) (just noticed that they do use the "British spelling", so I didn't change it when I typed it – where are these guys?)
ii) a well, with quite a bit of different symbolism
iii) the "promise of our marriage to Christ"
iv) the crown of the bride (doing interesting things with Revelation 12)

The colour of the stars is apparently the colour of light ("British" spelling again) and the seven points represent:
i) the fleeing of the enemies in 7 directions (Deut 28:7)
ii) the sevenfold spirit of God (Revelation – 7 isn't unique to Islamic symbology!)
iii) the 7 points of the KWB motto and code

The cross is red for Jesus' death/blood and extends across the whole flag because there is no end to Jesus' love. The four corners are "the four corners of the earth, white and ready for harvest". The flag is pictured both square and with greater width than height.
