Pastor Herrell does not seem to identify himself with "identity 
theology", rather he calls himself a "Christian Separatist", but the 
doctrines he does espouse are both abhorrent and anti-biblical. If you 
have the stomach for it, see 
http://www.christianseparatist.org/briefs/sb2.15.html, where he writes 
"we endorse the political philosophy and theory of white National 
Socialism" and "nor can we sanction their allowing racial mongrels to be 
card carrying members of the their organization". His society celebrates 
the birthday of Adolf Hitler! Herrell calls Rabbi Jack Mohr "guilty of 
blasphemy" because he "believes that niggers can be saved ... and 
condemns Nazi Germany, etc".

Jonathan, I don't want to identify you with such doctrines, but I want 
you to be aware of what Herrell actually teaches, so that you can decide 
for yourself whether to identify yourself with them. Does he believe you 
can be saved? I'm not sure.
