Christian Anarchy - Tumblr Posts - Page 2
FELLOW ANARCHISTS, PLEASE READ.
This should not stop us or scare us.
This should not make us take down our flags, retire our symbols and paint over the patches on our jackets. That's how the fascists want us to react.
This should INSPIRE US.
They are afraid of us. And if they're afraid of us, we have to be doing something right.
Be aware, but do not be silent. Let's make sure as many of our people see this as possible, because we all have to be aware and conscious and safe.
Reblog the crap out of this post. Please, even if you're not an Anarchist yourself, but are a supporter or a punk or have friends who are Anarchists, hit reblog.

I guess I'm a terrorist now. Have an opinion they don't like? Watch them hunt you down. Make you the enemy. Take you out.
Jesus, come get us. I'm ready to go home.
IMPORTANT!!!
I’ve only seen like one person talk about this and it’s super important that this gets out there
Multiple punk symbols and sayings have been added to the FBI’s domestic terrorism guide
Things included are
The symbol for anarchy
ACAB and 1312
The three arrows pointing down in a circle
Eat the rich
Those are a few but it also mentions anything anti-fascist and anti capitalist
So if you live in the US please be careful

"I Wanna Contribute to the Chaos"
"It's a Metaphor for Capitalism"
"Spider Punk"
So happy to have my first piece of the Front Bottoms merch! Especially being a writer and artist, I LOVE the design. The Spider Punk stuff brings me so much joy. I've been wearing the anti-capitalist pin like crazy. I don't even have to say anything about the Christian punk one, just yes.
I ordered about ten more this morning. Political designs, band designs, fandom ones etc. Pictures coming soon!
Hey punks. You looking for some sick pins and wanna support independent artists? Try the website Redbubble. I just ordered four pins from them and bro I'm so excited for them to come in like sifneofjwonfoenf
Just as God intended... listen up, kids.
Anarchy ≠ Chaos: A Quick Clarification
Anarchy often gets an undeserved reputation for chaos and disorder. Let's set the record straight: anarchy isn't about lawlessness or a society spiraling into turmoil. It's a socio-political philosophy that seeks a world without oppressive hierarchies, where power is decentralized and shared by the people.
In an anarchist vision, individuals and communities govern themselves, making decisions collectively. This doesn't mean there are no rules or order. On the contrary, it means the rules are created and enforced through mutual agreement, rather than imposed by a centralized authority.
Anarchism encourages cooperation, solidarity, and mutual aid. It values voluntary associations and free exchange of ideas, goods, and services. It's about building a society where people are not dominated by a few, where resources are shared equitably, and where the needs of all are considered.
Critics often misinterpret these ideals, associating anarchy with chaos because it challenges existing power structures. But in reality, it's a call for a more just, inclusive, and harmonious world. It seeks to replace oppressive systems with ones based on consent and cooperation.
So, the next time someone confuses anarchy with chaos, remember that it's a vision of a world where individuals come together to create order through their own choices, not through the dictates of a ruling class. Anarchy is not chaos; it's a commitment to freedom, equity, and community.
Being a walking bucket of red flags and contradictions is all "haha they think I'm this, that or the other that's so hilarious."
...until you actually try and snag you a man💀
I'm Christian but alternative and anarchist. Straight but gay coded. Fat but proud of it. Mentally screwed yet strong willed. There's no hope, I send mixed signals by breathing. Anyone relate?
I am learning that boxes do not make you complete. Placing a title on your life does not prove that you deserve to live it. It will not prove that you belong. You do not belong. Few do. This world is not our home.
Boxes are prisons. Don't be their prisoner.
Defy their expectations. Break free.
There's nothing wrong with you.
They simply fear what they cannot label.
...
You do not have to prove that you deserve to exist. You can simply exist. You deserve life. Do not resent your own breath.
"If voting changed anything, they would make it illegal."
-Emma Goldman
"When discrimination against women goes unchallenged; when minorities are considered second class citizens: when leadership is mastery of mega church principles and not humble service; when the poor and outcasted are not welcomed at the table; when obedience to the Father, loving service to others and simplicity of life are considered exclusive province of elite believers; when evangelical greatness is measured by achievement and not by smallness; and when the rejection and suffering inherent in bold witness to the truth is rationalized, minimized and finally pulverized in cantankerous Bible studies, then Jesus is made an anachronism, His teaching an irrelevance, and His followers an anonymous crowd- their investments and property intact, their credit cards and trinkets secure; a sheepish herd moving in lockstep with the lip serving, self absorbed entrepreneurs who stay busy 'expanding their territories to the glory of God.'"

I think I'm gonna speak for a lot of Anarchists when I say this... stop trying to shove us in political boxes. Anarchy, by definition, is the REJECTION of those political boxes.
Do I see the Republican general view on some issues? Yes. Do I agree with the liberal mindset on other issues? Yes.
That doesn't make me Democratic OR Republican. That doesn't make me left wing, right wing, liberal or conservative.
It makes me a person with a conscience, moral code, opinion and belief. It makes me human. For the love of Jesus Christ of Nazareth PLEASE stop trying to categorize it and categorize me. People are so much more than labels, stereotypes and titles.
Agreed. Pride flags shouldn't be in church for the same reason American flags shouldn't be in church. Anyone trying to pin their politics on my Jesus is missing the point of the Gospel entirely and is too caught up in worldly debates rather than the eternal Kingdom of God. Let's be real with ourselves; Jesus Christ would have been an ANARCHIST!!!
If I hear one more person telling me or any other Jesus loving, political rebel I know that it's their "Christian duty to vote right" I'm going to explode. And for that matter, if you're choosing to fly the American flag, or flag of ANY TYPE, over the Christian flag, you're commiting a blasphemous act. Happens way too often.
This shit goes all the way back to the Ten Commandments, people...
"Have no other gods before me."
I feel people miss the point of that commandment. When it says that, it doesn't just mean gods in Roman or Greek history. Anything can be your God: politics, sex, drugs, your country, your gender. Anything that you value over your faith is your God. Give it some thought. What flag do you fly above Christ's in your own life?
I’m sick of the American political machine and how it relates to Christianity today. I’m tired of Christ being wrapped up in culture war garbage. I’m over liberals insisting Jesus was some progressive lefty and conservatives claiming you’re going against the Bible by not voting for Republicans/refusing to worship at the altar of Donald Trump. I’m sick of lesbian priests and rainbow flags draped over churches and shaming towards married couples for not having 6+ kids and dunking on working moms. Where is any of this in the Bible? Where is God in all of this? How is participating in tribalism orchestrated by the Elites spreading the Gospel to the world? When did we start letting Fox News and random Twitter liberals dictate what “Christian values” look like?
I'm tired of rebellion only being acceptable if you rebel in a politically correct fashion.
I'm tired of hate speech being acceptable as long as it's directed at the "correct group."
I'm tired of watching the church bow down to deranged elitists and corrupt government.
I'm tired of truth being manipulated.
I'm tired of cancel culture being normalized.
I'm tired of intolerance being tolerated.
I'm tired of skin color being a factor in judging and loving others.
I'm tired of equality turning into revenge.
I'm tired of gender defining identity, expectations and capability.
I'm tired of the "kill all men" twisted doctrine.
I'm tired of misogyny and chauvinism.
I'm tired of the boxes and the stereotypes...
With no space allowed to exist in between.
Let's start a proper revolution.
A revolution of love.
A revolution of proud existence, proud resistance and total disregard to what is considered "acceptable."
A revolution they can't dictate. They can't profit from. They can't control.
A revolution they can't stick in boxes of left or right or central or up or down or sideways.
Anarchy in its purest form.
Reblog if you see through the political mind manipulation games of the modern world.
Can you explain more about Christian anarchy?
Would love to! I'll pull it straight from the Christian Anarchism Wikipedia Article:
"Christian Anarchism is a Christian movement in political theology that claims anarchism is inherent in Christianity and the Gospels. It is grounded in the belief that there is only one source of authority to which Christians are ultimately answerable—the authority of God as embodied in the teachings of Jesus. It therefore rejects the idea that human governments have ultimate authority over human societies. Christian anarchists denounce the state, believing it is violent, deceitful and idolatrous. Christian anarchists hold that the "Kingdom of God" is the proper expression of the relationship between God and humanity. Under the "Kingdom of God", human relationships would be characterized by horizontal organization, servant leadership, and universal compassion—not through the traditional structures of organized religion, which most Christian anarchists consider hierarchical and/or authoritarian structures. Most Christian anarchists are also pacifists who reject war, militarism, and the use of violence."
Here's the link if you want more information!
There's tons of evidence in the Bible that Jesus/God was/is a pacifistic anarchist... Could go on about it for hours.
JESUS COME QUICKLY
Everyone is speaking out of both sides of their mouth and everywhere I look there is death...
God has so much more in store for you. Stop listening to the news, the government, and the TV preachers. Start listening to Him.

What many modern Christians don’t understand is that when Jesus talks about “giving to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s” is a direct condemnation of political systems and their affiliation with the Kingdom of God.
Just like in Roman times, Jesus wants to warn us that God’s love should never be co-opted by partisan power and government control.
