I enjoyed his teaching at first but then a feeling that things were not right bothered me.

I have been watching Shepard's Chapel and had to go to the BIBLE to look up scripture and found it was different then Mr. Murruy’s. What denomination is Shepard’s Chapel? Thank you Emailer #271

Hi Emailer #271 ,
The Shepherd's Chapel is not associated with any of the big denominations, but it can be loosely classified as one of the "Identity" Churches.  The label "Identity"  is given to a wide group of unassociated churches which share the common belief that the white race's true "identity" is the "lost tribes of Israel." 
 
The identity movement is not a denomination, but the Shepherd's Chapel is every bit big enough to be a denomination by itself, except there is only one Shepherd's Chapel Church, denominations usually branch out. 
 
At the core, the Shepherd's Chapel is a cult of personality revolving around the opinions, questionable interpretations, and self-anointed scholarship of Arnold Murray, a man who falsely presented himself as a "Doctor" for years until mounting external pressure forced him to stop claiming a title he had never earned, and he could not document. 
 
If you have any further questions, I am at your service.
 
Sincerely,
Paul Stringini

I enjoyed his teaching at first but then a feeling that things were not right bothered me. I started looking up scripture like his saying Cain was the seed of the devil and he was not included in Adams line of decedents. Thank you for the help. Please pray for me that the LORD gives me the wisdom to look up scripture and make sure it follows GODS word. Thank you Emailer #271
