From the one-page
website:
"The cross represents the sacrifice Jesus made at Calvary for our sins and red
represents the shed blood. The white field represents the purity of the
sacrifice. The sword represents the Word of God which is the weapon of our
warfare. The fire represents the Holy Spirit who illuminates the Word of God to
the believer and brings revelation of the truth to be burned deep into our
hearts. The blue field represents faith. We believers are to have faith not only
in just the sacrifice that Jesus made, but in the whole Word of God. This flag
also represents the Trinity of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit."

Note that the site also says (at
http://end-timesflag.tripod.com/id6.html):
"This God inspired design was given to Pete Nelson in a vision in 2000. The
purpose of this design was to create and end-time "battle standard" (flag) for
the believers of Jesus Christ. It is not a traditional, denominational or
"static" flag. This flag is meant to unite the Body of Christ as a mighty Army
of God and reaffirm that Jesus is alive and will soon return." -- and is
copyrighted by P. Nelson.
This flag is not apparently authorised or endorsed by any recognisable corporate
body. It is also inspired by a late 19th century Anglo-American theology
(Darby's pre-millennial dispensationalism) which most of its adherents fail to
recognise as being that modern, and which most Christians reject.
Although it will never achieve the same fame, this flag bears interesting
parallels to the standard of Jeanne d'Arc and
should likewise be seen as a product of its times. A good study with
illustrations can be found here
