I reclaim this flag for the true followers of the teachings of Jesus and his sacrifice. Modern Christianity seems to follow the money instead of Christ’s teachings in Matthew 25:35 to 40. It also seems to worship materialism over God. I reclaim this flag for those that love and respect all people.

saintjerry64.bsky.social @saintjerry64.bsky.social · 1d

I reclaim this flag, this symbol of a Constitutional Democratic Republic. A symbol that stands over a government that is supposed to care after all of it’s citizens and their rights. Citizens of all races, sexes, religions, sexual orientations have died under this flag the and country it represents.
