"This is an age OF confusion.
This IS ar age OF decay and dismay
because man has lost the value OF
The spiritual worth OF the Bible"
said Bishop Robinson. pastor OF
Alpha and omega Spiritual Church
OF Christ, at the morning service
last Sunday.
The two decades since the World
War have given rise to new proph-
ets. new religious leaders. found
ers OF new religious faiths ard de-
nominations. among the Negroes
Of America. There have been wide
" practsed cults OF spiritualism
in Detroit for the past fifteen
years. In this field new church
organization has been ablished

Now, YOU ask what Is the Alpha

Christ, 1t has one fundamental
feainre-the absolute conformity
o. conduct with Scripture. The

Of every passage In the Bible are
conformed TO- The membership OF
Bishop Johnson's church believe
that this world can be saved only
nv return TO faith In Christ. and
that man can only redeem tho
world from its present confusion
and bankruptcy. by rededlcating
himself 10 Christ. This church
teaches that man suffers because
o. his lack OF faith and tho lack
y recognition OF the presence and
power OF God.
In his discourse. Bishop Robin
