If there was no God, then there would not have been a Bishop SC Johnson. Bishop Johnson preached that the "Spirit told him to come out. Can you imagine the movement Lawson would have had if Bishop Johnson was a leader in his movement. Bishop Johnson said to Lawson, if God didnt bless his ministry, then he could say it was not of God. So God did that seperating. When Bj first started out, the first church or two that he had was taken from him. His success was through prayer, and Lawson had nothing to do with what Bishop J had. Also, Lawson was n the Days of BJ, and if Lawson was right, then he should have been able to walk away with the $500,000.oo reward that BJ offered.

Evidently you misunderstand me I respect Bishop Johnson and marvel at the work he did. No doubt the Lord was with him for him to accomplish what he did. I thoroughly enjoyed Bishop Johnson's preaching. However Bishop Johnson was not saved under HIS own preaching he was saved under Bishop Lawson's preaching. So to cast aspirsions on Bishop Lawson is amazing since Bishop Johnson heard and obeyed the gosple through the influence of Bishop Lawson.
