Here is what Arnold Murray says about his "doctorate":

    Doctorate of Religious Education

    I have never claimed to have received a doctorate from Roy Gillaspie. I do not know where some of these "researchers" came up with this. Roy Gillaspie was simply a beloved teacher of God's Word and I have never said or implied any such thing. It is true that I have a policy of not publicly stating where I earned my doctorate because then "critics" cannot judge me by association. I have always publicly stated that my credentials are my ability to teach God's Word. To the extent that our Heavenly Father blesses me with the ability to clearly teach His Word then what higher ordination could there be? (http://www.shepherdschapel.com/answer-to-critics.htm)

Roy Gillaspie is:

    Dr. Roy E. Gillaspie, was a Christian Identity preacher from Bellflower, California who is noted as being one of three Christian Identity ministers who ordained Arnold Murray, pastor of the Shepherd's Chapel in Gravette, Arkansas. Roy Gillaspie was the pastor of the Church of Jesus Christ, a white supremacist church located in Bellflower, California under the umbrella of Soldiers of the Cross (see the discussion page on Soldiers of the Cross), which was founded by former Communist party member turned Christian, Oliver Kenneth Goff (see The Encyclopedia of White Power, pg. 120). The Church of Jesus Christ was a small group of Christian Identity congregations with locations in California and Arkansas. The Gravette, Arkansas branch was pastored by Arnold Murray and was the precursor to Shepherd's Chapel As noted in Murray's web page, Gillaspie is described as "a beloved teacher of God's Word". In the sixties, Gillaspie served as an adviser to the Christian Defense League which was founded by Wesley Swift , San Jacinto Captand Colonel William Potter Gale. Through this organization Gillaspie forged ties with other notable Christian Identity preachers such as Bertrand Comparet , Richard ( Wikipedia article ) http://www.whoislog.info/profile/roy-gillaspie.html

He also mentions the Trinity in this section on answering his critics, but doesn't clear much up in his "Statement of Faith" concerning his teaching on this either.

Well that was a whole lot of nothing. Nothing about Biola in there, and not objective either.

BTW, that’s the page Wikipedia deemed unsubstantiated and had it removed. That’s pretty bad when even liberal Wikipedia knows it’s BS. lol
