The Turner family, headed by Jessup Paul Turner, is a power force in the country. The family is obsessed with the preservation of its heritage and dynasty, but is cursed with marriages that produce a single male heir each generation. Jessup Paul Turner's wife produces an heir. Unfortunately, the heir is a girl. The girl, Debra, while in college, falls in love with a Black student. They marry against family wishes and she becomes pregnant, unacceptable for the Turner dynasty preservation. Turner determines that the child must be killed to preserve the Turner lineage. Turner sends men, led by his personal bodyguard, to kill the baby. The bodyguard, in love with Debra, kills the hit men instead. The young child is precocious and as he matures, believes himself to be the son of God. He attracts a large following, called the Jessupites. Turner, now with a male heir, as a result of a relationship with a prostitute, is determined, now more than ever, to have the Black boy killed. He puts into motion a plan to kill the Black Prophet.
