Observant Christian Identity Groups

Observant Christian Identity groups are religious communities that believe they are the true descendants of the biblical Israelites and interpret Scripture literally. They emphasize strict adherence to their interpretation of biblical laws and often promote a worldview that distinguishes different racial or ethnic groups based on their perceived biblical lineage. These groups may reject modern society’s norms and emphasize racial separation or preservation of their identity. While they share core Christian beliefs, their racial and cultural views can be controversial and are often criticized for promoting exclusion or discriminatory ideas.
