Some folks find it odd -- even disturbing -- that we do not display
the flag of the United States of America in our church meeting house or at the
meetings of Free Florida First.
STAY IN THE FIGHT!
NEVER GIVE UP!
NEVER QUIT!
The US flag, as originally conceived and utilized, did indeed
stand for those laudable things set forth in the Declaration of Independence: the
right of secession; consent of the governed; unalienable rights, endowed by the
Creator; etc. It stood for a Confederation of Sovereign States, who cooperated
to throw off the political chains of a distant and tyrannical government.
But since the seceding Southern states were invaded by US
forces, the US flag has ceased to stand for any of these things. Indeed, it has
come to stand for an “indivisible” nation (in the words of the socialist author
of the “Pledge of Allegiance”). Such a concept flies in the face of those
things that were fought for by our revolutionary forebears.
The US flag stands for an unbridled Amerikan Empire that seeks
to impose its will upon the world at large, both at home and abroad. It now stands
for the exact opposite of those things set forth in the Declaration of
Independence. It is a flag of empire; a flag of tyranny; a flag of sodomy; a
flag of abortion; a flag of suppression of individual God-given rights; etc.
We choose rather to display the flag that was patterned upon the
Christian symbol of the first disciple, Andrew, a man who died a martyr’s death
at the hands of a tyrannical and repressive government.
The Confederate Battle Flag, bearing the cross of Saint Andrew,
was born as a symbol of resistance to tyranny and it remains such today. This
is the real reason that it is so hated and reviled; and this is the reason that
we continue to display it. No one should question our stand against tyranny whether
it comes from Babylon on the Potomac (Washington, DC) or from any other source.
We desire only to be left alone to pursue our lives as free Christian
men and women; and we stand firmly against any who would seek to prevent us
from doing so.
Numbers
2:2-3a
Every
man of the children of Israel shall pitch by his own standard, with the ensign
of their father's house: far off about the tabernacle of the congregation shall
they pitch. And on the east side toward the rising of the sun shall they of the
standard of the camp of Judah pitch throughout their armies . . .
We shall pitch our standard and fly the ensign of our fathers.
So help us God!
