I figure that I should try to clear up just one thing. Masturbating to Jesus is a F doctrine, but to be done privately as an integral part of intimate prayer, or to be done with a partner while having sexual relations together. It is not done at Family staff meetings. However sexual language to Jesus is encouraged and often used by many when praying unitedly in a group.
Male members of the F are told to think of themselves as females in order to practice this form of sexuality with Jesus. The rationale given is that the Church is the Bride of Christ, and He got lonely and was in need of intimacy with those who love Him, so the Family was chosen to be given this message. Now they are the one and only intimate lovers of Jesus, because other Christians don't pray "Fuck Me, Jesus, make me come, oh it's just so sexy how You caress me, etc. etc. etc"--I will leave out the pornography. As a result of the Family giving Jesus sex, He has now blessed them with the "Power of the Keys", which mind you, NO other Christians have been given. They really believe this.
I was in the cult 2 years ago and that's how it was. I have contact with my daughter who is still a member, and other Family members too, and things haven't changed a bit, except for getting worse.
