@@nolanolivier6791 the complete indoctrination and brainwashing to have lived through that, and to fully deprogram from mindless sheep, into authentic SOVEREIGNTY is heart based compassion, forgiveness, and understanding. I know from my own personal experience. I've recently studied the wingmakers.com interviews and all of the writings that have greatly assisted my own success in mastery within, I still struggle, however the technique for applying the virtues of the heart, in daily life experiences has greatly improved and developed within me an expansion of first Source INTEGRATION in my being, that I feel confidence empowering me from within that has given me broader perspective knowing myself in truly genuine way, has been a path to inner liberation out of subconscious programs that ruled my life, without my full coherent awareness, by removing the veils of illusions of the shadow that I hid from myself, and allowing myself to feel, and to heal. Much support to your path of healing dear one.

People this is not what being a Christian is like . Just because you believe in God and love the scriptures does not mean you are part of a cult . I came out of mormonism because that was a cult . I can only tell you that a real loving relationship with God is a personal one and not of any religion . I have been a Christian since I was 17 and you do not have to join any church to know and to serve the Lord . He is in my heart and that works for me. These people who harmed her will one day be judged by the Creator.

@loriadams1588 5 лет назад

OliviaNewtronBomb perfectly said. I was trying to get this point across with my comment, but since you actually lived it, you articulated it perfectly. As far as Mormonism, I am reading “Unveiling Grace” by Lynn K. Wilder. I did not understand the Mormon beliefs and practices, and how damaging they are, until I started reading this book. I always heard people say that Mormonism is a cult, but I wondered if that was extreme and inaccurate, until I started reading this book. I have friends that I care very much for that are Mormon, and my heart is grieved that they are in this. Even so, would you think it’s fair to say that there are Mormons who truly love the God of the Bible, even with their belief that the Bible is corrupt?

I was raised as a Jehovah witness and now strongly dislike religion. It is a form of a cult. One of my most traumatic events was when my aunt got pregnant out of wedlock and no one could talk to her. I was only 7 years old. It was so heart breaking that everyone felt my aunts sins were greater than theirs. House full of hypocrites! Now as an adult I reflect on that sickening gut wrenching feeling of abandonment and what they call "expulsion." I am awake now so thank God I do not need a cult like this to tell me I am worthy of Gods love. To God be the glory I am awake now. My child will not bare the same anguish we went through.

In 2010 my husband and I visited a friend in Bangalore. Our friend was also British, and had been sucked in by The Family when he was struggling financially. We had no idea until we were there. He didn’t live with them, but was considered a ‘disciple’. We were taken to a commune (a huge house in an expensive area) for the evening. Our friend was taken away by these stunning girls (with names like ‘Sunshine’), and my husband and I were taken to a separate room for dinner with the head of the household and his wife. All the people there had American accents. It’s a long story, but it was the most disturbing evening, and eventually my friend walked away from it. He never told us why. Unfortunately he passed away in 2016, so we will never know.

A couple once came home with a child...they were talking about the second coming of Jesus and selling music tapes. When my mum asked them if they were married they said no and said the child was not theirs but their friends. Looking back, I marvel that we never suspected this was so weird! We just though they were good Christians doing the Lords work. They had strange names too...Sunshine, Delight etc When my mum offered them some juice, they wouldn’t let the child have any, saying they were being careful of sickness. They were all over town I remember and then as suddenly as they appeared, they just disappeared. It wasn’t till, many years later, I picked up a Paris Match in our office library and saw the story on the cult and recognised the name, that I realised who they were.

Wow, she's 44 and has had so much abuse and is stunning! It's a small consolation for everything this woman has had to go through, God bless toy and your family, from the true God Yahweh who loathes the treatment that happened to you!

Totally agree that those people need to be bought to justice. Even if they say that things have changed and that things aren't the same now in the group, there remain many people that have been hurt and whose lives have been destroyed. They need to be brought to justice.

@riverajoanne25 6 лет назад

Hate how she interviews. She cuts them off when people r telling their story. They'll be getting into what happen and she cut them off and say something else and change the subject.

@crumbreth5595 5 лет назад

She doesn't want them to share "too much".

I ran into this group in the mid 70s in Spokane Washington. They draw a person in with lots of smiles, friendliness and camaraderie, but i felt there was something not right about them. Once i found out they were purposely using young woman to entice men to give them money i told them they were not of God and i never had anything to do with them again. They should be outlawed as a group and the leadership brought to justice.

Christina comes across as a truly beautiful person.i am so happy that she escaped that cult and discovered real love.

@nawshamerypoe2741 2 года назад

It hurts my heart to hear and know this... Thank you for sharing this.... This is my prayer that may the people who are stuck in this cult meet, hear, know and experience the true teaching and personal of the sovereign Lord through Jesus Christ. May they receive the true freedom in Christ 🕊

I haven't spoke of my experience with the FoL, / COG, kept it all to myself, not wanting to remember, I was 17 to 24 yrs in. I'm now nearly 62. The escape from that and the influence of that has had lifelong repercussions, to heal.

I have almost finished reading the book from Juliana, Kristina and Celeste. “Not without my sister” Breaks my heart how they suffered. The level of deception and human indecency is beyond anything I have ever found. David Berg was a monster and what he encouraged to happen to all the children was pure evil and then telling women to flirty fish, without contraception or protection. Those humans named Joshua and Hosea and Paul. All of them and those commune leaders - They should be very very afraid. Each one of them committed horrendous abuse against innocent children and they will suffer as they bible says. Nothing can be said by these people to implore forgiveness. My heart goes out to everyone who suffered and to the mothers that were forced to leave their children and called backsliders. One young boy watched his brother drown, and he was subjected to correction for months because he cried. EVIL MONSTERS they are. I am so proud of the women, men and children coming forward and speaking up. They have my total admiration for their courage, strength, resilience and for the love they have in their hearts for each other and themselves- they are all in my prays.

@brooklynchayse3028 4 года назад

If it's ok for me to say I am so glad she survived her unfortunate ordeal through out her life and now brave enough to share her story with the world to encourage people to not be embarrassed or ashamed to share their stories as well and to know that their not alone by any means although it is very sad and horrfic to hear however yet very interesting and informative all at the same time because It is very important to know I Pray GOD will continue to give her the Strength and Healing As Well As Peace Of Mind To Keep Being A Advocate And Voice For Others Who May Not Have The Courage To Stand Up Against These Kind Of Evil Despicable Acts Of Perversion Against All Children...

Why do we have laws that protect child abusers? We should all agree that healthy children provide healthy futures for everyone and no one should be treated like they are expendable

Theres many people in the world who feel lonely and lost, and if any of these "religious" members find you and approach you, you probably will feel like you could belong to something new and pure, but listening to stories like that, its far from truth.

Legally, our children and vulnerable adults are subjected to terrible situations by broken people who perpetuate the cycle of brokenness. The abuse may vary, but legally it is very difficult to get someone out (of a cult, or a bad parenting or guardianship situation) if they have communication difficulties or developmental delays, or are under the age of consent.
