Has your sister visited the movingon.org site? Not much has been said about what attracted people to the family. The attractions ARE there. Just like there is an attraction to experimenting with drugs and enjoying the high, but at that stage you are oblivious of the downside of the substance. You don't realize the depths you will be dragged down to and can't believe the supposed "hype" from those who couldn't "handle" the substance.
The family has a sugar coating. Love bombing is a big part of that. I am sure they have some real sweet "milk" to give to their "babes" but it's laced with large doses of spiritual valium.
By the time the "meat" is introduced, self-control is pretty well broken down via monotonous readings and dronings of the worlds WORST writer, Maria, who oddly enough always carries on these "conversations" with Jesus and "Dad" who all seem to agree with her point of view. And if you don't agree with Jesus, well then you are being led of Satan. You might "lose your crown".
Ruth, has she heard about the LJR? The good thing about the movingon site is that it has articles from people that have recently left. Sounds like your sister has only had surface contact and is totally unaware of what can happen.
Hope she doesn't do it! Anyway, if the case be that she does, one of the most important things she can have is family, like you, who are not sucked in and who care about her.
