A Black Lives Matter activist and Christian minister is starting a new denomination with the purpose of spreading the gospel in a way that addresses “black suffering,” according to The Christian Post.
Who is the founder?
Jomo Kenyatta Johnson is a minister from Savannah, Georgia.
He has a bachelor’s degree in biblical studies from Beacon University and a Master of Divinity from Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia. What’s the denomination about?
Johnson’s denomination will be called Church for Black Men.
Some of the unique tenets of the denomination include:
The denomination will never collect tithes and offerings, to avoid perceptions of greed. They will not be a tax-exempt organization, so that the church can endorse or speak out against political candidates.
The church will “unapologetically address issues of black suffering,” which Johnson says haven’t been “properly translated in corporate church culture.”
Johnson said despite his previous work with Black Lives Matter, the church would not be directly affiliated with BLM, and he would be stepping away from BLM to focus on the Church for Black Men.

The flip side of the Christian Identity movement.
Why are these idiots continually “suffering”? Could it have anything to do with their shiftlessness, their inability to form functioning families, their dependency, their general refusal to work hard? Hmmm... They live in the greatest country in the world, have freedom to do whatever and they are suffering. Sheesh...give me a break.
I vaguely recall a chapter from one of P.J. O’Rourke’s books . . “Poverty in Reeboks.”
I suggest that abortion be adopted as a "sacrament."
are gays having a lot of abortions?
Sounds like a fund raising operation dressed up like a church.
