About Christian Flag in brief

Summary Christian FlagThe Christian Flag is an ecumenical flag designed in the early 20th century to represent all of Christianity and Christendom. The flag has a white field, with a red Latin cross inside a blue canton. The shade of red on the cross symbolizes the blood that Jesus shed on Calvary. The blue represents the waters of baptism as well as the faithfulness of Jesus. The white represents Jesus’ purity. The dimensions of the flag and canton have no official specifications. The Christian Flag intentionally has no patent, as the designer dedicated the flag to all of Christ endom.

It can be seen today in or outside many Christian churches throughout the world, particularly in Latin America and in Africa. It has so far been adopted by some Protestant churches in Europe, Asia, and Africa as well. Some churches and organizations practice a Pledge of allegiance to the Christian Flag, which is similar to the Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. flag. In Canada and the United States, accommodationists and separationists have entered impassioned debate on the legality of erecting the Christian flag atop governmental buildings.
