The Christian Flag - A Universal Symbol

The Christian flag is one of the few truly ecumenical Christian symbols, recognized and used by Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, and independent churches worldwide. Created in 1897, it transcends denominational boundaries to represent the universal Christian faith. The flag's simple, powerful design makes it instantly recognizable as a symbol of Christianity.

Symbolism & Meaning

Every element of the Christian flag carries deep meaning. The white field represents purity and peace, the blue canton symbolizes faithfulness and the waters of baptism, and the red cross represents Christ's sacrifice and the blood He shed for humanity's salvation. Together, these elements create a powerful visual representation of core Christian beliefs shared across all traditions.

Historical Background

The Christian flag was designed in 1897 by Charles C. Overton, a Sunday school superintendent in Brooklyn, New York, who wanted a flag to represent Christianity just as national flags represent countries. The design was refined and promoted by the Federal Council of Churches, and by the mid-20th century, it had become a standard feature in Protestant churches across America and beyond.

Traditional Church Display

In many churches, the Christian flag is displayed on one side of the sanctuary while the American flag is displayed on the other, representing the dual citizenship of Christians as citizens of both heaven and their earthly nation. This traditional arrangement honors both spiritual and civic responsibilities.

Pledge to the Christian Flag

Many churches and Christian schools use the Pledge to the Christian Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Christian flag, and to the Savior for whose kingdom it stands; one brotherhood, uniting all mankind in service and love." This pledge emphasizes Christian unity and service across all boundaries.

Ecumenical Significance

Unlike denominational flags that represent specific traditions, the Christian flag belongs to all Christians. It's used by Baptists and Methodists, Presbyterians and Pentecostals, Catholics and non-denominational churches alike. This universal acceptance makes it a powerful symbol of Christian unity in a divided world.
