In Reply to: Phoebes Death found from newdaynews posted by Swede on July 04, 2007 at 08:51:18:

Jereboam, American died in Europe was extremely ill before being dumped and then found dead.
Phoebe was Norwegian and from Bergen. I knew her way before music with meaning and I sang with her at the Denmark Poorboy Club. Back then she was not drawn into berg's inner circle or one of his pet projects yet.
I was stunned to read what happened to her. I know I once very nearly died in TF from infection and got blood poisoning. I really should have died but strongly suggested- and suggestions were "orders", to go by faith.
When pregnant and going to a "pioneer field", Mother Eve asked me if I had the faith for having the baby there because, she said as she was pointing out a woman that heard her who was a leader in Scandinavia- "she" didn't have the faith and her baby died at childbirth.
So that nameless unknown baby can be added to the list. Wonder how many of those there were?
How sad.
> Maria's and Peter's tactics in "explaining" things to

> IF that is supposed to be some kind of a sales pitch, they are

> having a low standard of living.
> Most of these deaths were unnecessary and could have been
> prevented or treated, but TF is taught not to look at it that
> way.

> The Family is taught by the teachings of Berg, to look at all of
> these deaths as God's Will, and be happy that they are all in
> heaven now, don't feel sorry for them , because God took them.

> Well, you can't convince ME that God took them. As far as I am
> concerned, because of Berg's occult involvements,
> and agreements he made with Satan, and weird demonic spirit
> guides, the devil took them, as he is the angel of death, not
> God.

> Berg's letters about how wonderful death is gave TF the mind set
> that those who die in service to God in TF get a special place
> in heaven and special honors. This is similar to the doctrine of
> Islam, which states that those who die in service to Allah will
> go straight to heaven, and enjoy eternal pleasures and glory.

> No wonder TF members haven't risen up questioning these deaths.
> They just accept them as God's Will!!!

> Well, somebody should let them know. Also, the new born younger
