Okay, so this is something that’s bugged me for a long time. I took this picture at my church’s INTERNATIONAL headquarters. Why do Christian churches, and institutions insist on flying the Christian flag below the US flag? It’s as if we readily accept our role as chaplain to the state, an unquestioning support system to a pagan nation. We as the church are all to happy to be the “yes man” for America. If we were in prison, I’d use another term for the role the church has resigned itself to. If we’re really an outpost for the Kingdom of God on earth, why fly other flags at all? What’s wrong with just flying the Christian flag? This is just as offensive to me as flying the Christian flag under the North Korean flag, as if the Church was not unlike a county, province or territory under the authority of the larger more important state. Arrrrrrgh, I hate the civil religion!
