This article was just one resourse that is available to the public. There is many articles and more importantly people like me. That were involved with them. That had their lives and minds altered for the worse, amongest other things. When you say that Christians judge, it's not like the judgement of God! Christions that are not living in sin, are then able to say to someone else, that living in sin is wrong. And unfortunely there is people that don,t want to be free from their sin, so they label it judgeing.

That arrangement, will only be best in Heaven. Where there will be no sin. And it will be on God's terms, not Man's. The middle letter in the word sin, is I. The word sin,means that we miss the mark(target). All haved sinned, and have fallen short of the Kingdom of God. The only way we can live right with our fellow man, is the base our beliefs on the word of God (The Holy Bible). Sexual sin will send a soul to hell, and for that reason alone, the love family cult was an offence to God's laws. Sex outside of marriege,is sin. And it's really too bad, that children had to suffer in this terrible arrangement.

Sure they were welcome! He wanted them as possessions and anything they owned, and their skills!! And their inheritance. That way he could have alot of benifits, makes sense, doesn't it?? What a Big Con Artist!! (He must have been good at selling televisions) .. More like a wolf in sheeps clothing, like the Bible Says

Because your replys are hidden, I hope that you wouldn't mind (Cultkid)that I copied and pasted them, so that others skimming over the comments, will see how terrible that Love? Family cult, really was and is!!.. what a crying shame!! And I hope others will have the opportunity to voice, their experience also, like you. If you were never sexually or physically abused, you were most diffinantly mentally and emotionally.. please encourage those that you know, to come forward and bring out the truth!! And let's just hope, being that the economy is bad now, that another mass commune doesn't evolve, like during the time of recession in the 70's Mary

(Continued.. Username: Cultkids replys to comments).. , it's selfish and neglectful intent. Speaking from experience here. I grew up in the family. Not just for five or ten years but until we lost the property in 2004. Everyone has their own stories but to claim that sexual abuse was not going on is selfish of ex members. I think it was intensified by the fact that we allowed complete strangers to watch the children and even take drugs with them. Along with that there was the whole preaching that age doesn't matter, which it does. If you have a fourteen year old sleeping with a man in his twenties, regardless of what she says, that's RAPE!! (Wow! I'm glad that you are upfront User name Cultkid, Thank You!!.. Regards, Mary)

Cultkids replys to commnents. Thank You for your input!! being that his replys are hidden, I thought I should copy and paste... This is what user name CULTKID wrote.... "love" is a lie. You cannot say that you love someone and watch them get sick and not help them while you sit up in a warm house, with electricity, plumbing and heat while they are in a tent that has no power, no indoor plumbing and no proper heating.,and stand by why you hear accusations of molestation, rape and assault and not even inquire into them. Then sleep with their partner. And watch as they are deprived of a decent education and basic needs. And watch as they are beaten by their husband and DO NOTHING.How was it for both of you? I'm sure I know both of you because I grew up there too. I think the blatant sexism lead to more domestic violence and child abuse. It's the same as any other sexist community. The more overt the sexism is the more reports of rape, molestation, pedophilia and domestic violence there are. I think blaming it on human nature is a cop out. Allowing a bunch of kids to be malnourished, molested and force-fed drugs is not human nature.(.continued)..

I am so saddened to hear that you suffered through such a horrible life style. Along with who ever else!! If what you are saying is true, the perpetrators should have been incarcerated!!!!!

I guess you are not getting the heart of the last message. The Bible says that the truth shall set us free. Jesus Christ is the way, the truth and the life. And he instructed his followers to preach the gospel of good news!! I thank God that someone preached to me,even thou it didn.t make me feel comfortable. But then again I.m use to people getting upset on the most part. But Jesus said that His word will not return void,so here I am,30 plus years later,still saved by grace. Thank God!!! And my hope is to spread the good news, so that others can benifit also. (dare I say "get saved")if u want to consider me a bible thumper,well that brings joy to my soul, because that means that I am obeying God's great commission. He commanded us to compel them to come in. I once was lost,and now I'm found,was blind,but now I see!!!! : ) I am a part of a very large fellowship,that preaches all around the World!!! What an adventure!! And u can be a part of this adventure also. God has a plan and destiny for everyones life. He's reaching out His Hand to whosoever, will be saved. God is Love : ))

You seem angry.. And that is not my intention is sharing my experience , views and concerns. Did you read how I was considered one of their Angels?? I was never told I could not be a part of the group, at all! I was encouraged to be a part, they just didn't want an under aged girl to live in one of their rented houses., I'm sure, because for one, I still lived at home and my parents wouldn't let me just move in with them, 2 -it could caused a problem, being if one was to have sex with me( or accused of) and they could be arrested for stagitory Rape!!.. I will give them credit for fast thinking.. especially if I would have gotten pregnant!! That would have caused a big issue for sure!! They probably had to just leave the underage girls alone.. Smart . Love did snap my bra strap from the back, and told me that I didn't need a bandaid. so I threw my new pretty flowered bra in the trash, that my sweet older sister bought me.. I was only 12, mind you. Lot's of memories are coming back now, and as long as you debate me, they may just keep coming out of the wood work!!! yikes!!

Sorry dobetter, if I misunderstood about the part that Love wants the group to regroup, that part I will admit I was wrong about. But I would not put it past Him, if He was able to. He does mention toward the end of the article above about the fact that He wants to keep spreading the Message. Here's some more history: when I googled The Love Family regrouping. This was an older article, but as you read, you will see that Love would have it that way, if he could, like the old days.. Takes lot's of Cash!! http://www.historylink.org/index.cfm?DisplayPage=...
