In the Old Testament book of Judges, chapter 7, Gideon's army of 300 men carried pitchers with torches as they went up against the Midianites. I think this is the story behind the logo.

What type of religion is Gideon?
The Gideons are a group; a Christian group and not a religion of its own. The Gideons are known for placing Bible's in Hotels for all to use. They are basically a Bible printing and distribution organization.
Do Gideons believe God is Jesus?
The Gideons are not actually a denomination of Christianity, but a Christian organization officially called "Gideons International" whose mission is to spread the word of God by handing out Bibles to people who might never otherwise encounter it. So the Gideons don't have specific beliefs (like whether Jesus is completely God or if he was something else) and can come from a variety of denominations. However, most Christians do believe that Jesus is God, so most Gideons are probably going to believe that, too. I hope that answered your question.
