OUR LOVE STORY! DFO 1358 Switzerland, 1/4/78

185. WELL, THAT'S THE STORY, OUR LOVE STORY! That was the birth of the Revolution, too!--Richard's driveway! We spent virtually all our honeymoon & courting days in parking lots!--Ha! There're a lot of weird things going on in parking lots! Well, when Mother Eve got away & began to have more or less her own ministry, her own little team & everything, she was happy. She was fine, & she always had some boyfriend. (Maria: Alf was her boyfriend for awhile!) What happened that you got ripped off? (Alf: I met Sara!)

186. SO THEN ALONG CAME STEPHEN! Steve was a good boy, he took good care of her, TTL, & I was so happy when she finally got somebody that really loved her & cared for her & chauffeured her. She always needed a chauffeur, somebody to drive her, & she was perfectly content then. She's had quite a few since then! When she finally abandoned her self-righteous attitude about sex, she went to the opposite extreme! I wish she had been that way when I knew her! Whew! She's a hot one now!

187. THEN SHE STARTED HER LITTLE SEX REVOLUTION, going around visiting all the different Colonies. Her ministry was to upset the fruit basket & get everybody scrambled up & mismated & whatnot!--& it looks like she's still at it! Well, I hated to have to put those things in the FN, but we have warned Mother Eve so many times to stop causing trouble, stop going in & bringing division & defying leaders & ripping off workers & all kinds of things, doing everything she's been told not to do, like going back to [EDITED: " ____ "] all the time. So that's the happy tale & the sad tale!--Our happy tale & Eve's sad tale.

REBUKE TO STEPHEN!--Gen Story Part 8. DO 1448 12/4/75

1. I WAS AMAZED AT SOME OF YOU, PARTICULARLY YOU, STEPHEN & MOTHER EVE, AT HOW SLOW YOU'VE BEEN IN BELIEVING THE WORD, ME & GOD! Have you heard the tapes of the revelation that I got from the Lord in the bathroom? Who was it who first told you about the Scripture that I got? (Faith: I told them at the dinner table that day.)--The day that we sent you girls down to deal with her, that was the second time? Well, praise God, maybe the third time is going to be the so-called charm! The second time that I sent you down to do it, still you guys stalled around & didn't do it. And apparently, Mother Eve, I don't know how you did it, but I've gotten reports that you hurt their faith on the issue & argued & tried to persuade them that it wasn't really so! That's the way I've heard it. Maybe I heard wrong?

23. THE PITIFUL PART ABOUT IT, STEPHEN, IS IT HAS HAPPENED WITH YOU & EVE AGAIN & AGAIN & ALWAYS THROUGH DISOBEDIENCE, not doing exactly what we told you, having some other "better" idea & doing that instead!--Right? I don't care to go back into ancient history, but I can think of several instances where it's happened before, & this is why I got so angry before! You cannot have faith & believe in God & in His spiritual power when you're acting in direct disobedience & when you don't do what we told you to do! You were disobeying God, because we are your superiors in the Lord & you should have done it!

24. GOD PICKED OUT A SCRIPTURE THAT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW EXISTED, speaking about Jonathan's mother as being the perverse & rebellious woman through which the Enemy was trying to kill David, through Jonathan! How you could disbelieve that the very next day is beyond me!--Except you were disobeying, so you were subject to the lies of the Devil!
25. I THINK YOU NEED TO REALLY STAY CLOSE TO THE LORD, SON, & WATCH OUT ABOUT SUCH DISOBEDIENCE, since you seem to be a little prone to this sort of thing. You have professed great love & desire to obey & be faithful & loyal & so on, & we've spoken many many times about being a faithful messenger. This is one thing that God has used you almost the most in, & yet it's the one thing that you've had to learn the most lessons on, along this line of being a faithful messenger. Apparently the Enemy really attacks you on it because God is trying to use you as a faithful messenger, so quite often you're very unfaithful! The Devil really attacks you, but you should beware of that & not be ignorant of his devices & be expecting his attacks! (But poor Stephen only grew worse, until both he & Eve departed from us!--May God help you to be warned by their horrible disobedient example! It could happen to you if you don't stay close to Him & His Word & His Work! God help you not to disobey & go back like they did!--In Jesus' name, amen!)

FAITHFUL SERVANTS!--Are YOU One? DO 1373 Tenerife 18/9/75

1. WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THAT I WAS REALLY FED UP! I don't think Adria should be in any kind of position of leadership at all! She's no example, running off & leaving her husband & even leaving her child a good deal of the time while she was off being a great mother!--Teaching other mothers! (David Handyman's ex-Adria--another of Eve & Stephen's disciples!) (P.S. Let's call him Stephen Eve! He's not Stephen David anymore! He's departed from us & gone back with Eve!)



THE DIVISION! — By Father David June 9, 1978 MO-DO 716

25. THE NIGHT THE LORD GAVE ME THIS”DIVISION” LETTER AS THE ANSWER, I WAS WORRIED ABOUT MOTHER AND STEPHEN and some of their questionable activities, and stated, “We may have to excommunicate Mother and Stephen.—Mao even had to defy his own wife and condemn her Gang of Four!” The Lord gave me the verse I Samuel 15:23: “For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry”.

28. MOTHER AND STEPHEN WERE IN THE SAME VEIN and became divided from me in spirit as well as in the flesh and departed from my way of doing things and my polices.—Stephen has had such a hard self-righteous attitude toward some people that he’s even gotten into actual physical violence with some and threatened it with others.

31. IT IS NOT OUR WAY FOR THEM TO ENCOURAGE SUCH HARDNESS and even seriously threatening to break into homes to demand housing, confiscating vehicles which had been given to the Family—all very poor examples of love and the Family. Sorry, but you asked for it!

33. THEY REINTERPRETED THE LETTERS TO SUIT THEMSELVES, wresting the Scriptures, until Mother and Stephen themselves seem to be almost totally deceived and led astray by the Enemy into false doctrines, false prophecies and extreme disobedience!

34. I HAD INSISTED THAT MOTHER STICK TO HER WRITING AND NOT INTERFERE IN THE AFFAIRS OF THE COLONIES nor the members nor much less the leadership! But instead, she went around visiting Colonies, disrupting and ripping off leadership and materials and going to places that I had forbidden her to go, such as Libya.

35. IT HAD BEEN MADE VERY PLAIN TO US by its leader that we were welcome to come on visits but not to stay. Whereas, Mother was constantly bugging him for a permanent headquarters there, which he did not want.

36. HE FELT WE COULD DO HIM MORE GOOD IN OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD as good PR for him, to which I had agreed. But not Mother and Stephen! They insisted on going back to see him time and again against my direct orders, imposing on his hospitality and running up big hotel bills left behind for others to pay.

39. THEY WERE SO NERVY as to virtually demand a place to stay there so they could remain the country against his wishes! Stephen even had the nerve to ask Godahfi if he could live in his house with him so he could go to the University and study Arabic!

43. THEY HAVE DRIVEN THESE PEOPLE AWAY AND LOST THEM AS FRIENDS by their foolish antics, some of them sexual indiscretions to say the least, particularly some of Stephen’s wild sexual forays on other people’s wives without the consent of the people’s mates, without agreement and unity, and insisting that he share, or even take away wives of others or their mates!

THE TALKING IMAGE! DFO 1522 London, 28/11/73
--A Revelation after Seeing "IT" Movie Re: The Golem Image.

28. YOU WERE THE ONE, BECKY, THAT I KNEW THE LORD WANTED TO SPEAK THROUGH TONIGHT! I know that Stephen's a prophet, & Maria also gets things from the Lord, but I was tempted to say Becky. But I thought, "No, Lord, You know!"--& I wanted the Lord to do it by His Spirit! Thank you for yielding to His Spirit! Amen, the Lord's got quite a line, huh? (Stephen: Like "The Spider's Web!") (No.227) Hallelujah! TYJ! Wasn't that "Spider's Web" beautiful? Those little things thrill me so!
