Custom Street Pole Banners - Custom Feather Flags


Tuesday, July 22, 2014
Religion plays a major role in keeping the peace and order of things in the modern world. Faith flags which bear the symbols of the carried faith hold a special reminder to the people. Even with the decent amount of diverse religions being promulgated across the continents, the balance of these faiths have contributed to a healthy balance for peace and order, not to mention limitations that actually help the stability of ideals and actions.
There is Islam’s mosques which is a symbolic association to the said faith, there is the six sided star referred to as Star of David for the Jews to name a few. For the largest denomination of faith followers, Christianity has two of the most commonly associated symbols revered to as somewhat important and influential: the Ichthys and the Cross.
Paintings, murals, faith flags, and other items used for the promulgation of the Christian faith would see the use of these two symbols interchangeably. The Ichthys or fish is easily associated with several aspects of the Christian faith such as the fish that fishermen catch as similar to Jesus Christ being the fisher of men. Some may even go to the extent of the fish being the food multiplied to serve the throngs of followers who wanted to listen to Jesus’ preachings. The symbol of the Ichthys is depicted in these Bible passages in drawings, paintings, plays, and faith flags as a testimony to the savior’s greatness.

Over the years, faith flags and similar depictions saw a fair usage of the cross. This is a symbol of the risen Christ the savior, and is a testament to the greatness and omnipotence of God.
