In all probability the alternator is not charging as it should. It could be from a bad voltage regulator or the alternator being defective.

Changed the battery on a 1993 Lincoln mark viii and the check charging system light keeps going on as well as the anti-lock brake light will stay on and the air bag light will flash on and off?

If the anti-lock and air bag light came on after the battery change and the charging light is on now it is probably your alternator. Usually with the Marks, if the battery starts acting up your best bet is to change the alternator too, I know had to do it to my 93 Mark Vlll. Never had to do it to any other car but had to with the Mark, good luck.
