Christian Identity refers to loosely affiliated believers in this ideology, and their churches. These churches hold white supremacist views. For example, they believe that only Caucasian-born citizens of either Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, Nordic, Aryan, or Celtic (except southern Irish) descent have souls and that all the other races in the world do not. Because they lack souls of their own, they can never get God's favor and they can never get saved. They also believe that Jesus Christ only saved those in the House of Judah and the House of Israel through him dying on the cross. Therefore, salvation could only be obtained through redemption and race.
