69. THE ONLY WAY TO GET FREE FROM HIM AND HIS LIES AND HIS PROHIBITIONS AND GUILT COMPLEXES ABOUT SEX is to get rid of his lies and his lying propaganda, his anti-sex propaganda, and believe the Lord and His Word and His Creation and God's Love and His freedom! That there's nothing in the world at all wrong with sex as long as it's practised in love, whatever it is or whoever it's with, no matter who or what age or what relative or what manner! And you don't hardly dare even say these words in private! If the law ever got a hold of this, they'd try to string me up! They'd probably lynch me before I got to the jail!

110. I'M TALKING ABOUT NATURAL NORMAL GODLY LOVE AS MANIFESTED IN SEX, as far as I'm concerned for whomever! There are no relationship restrictions or age limitations in His law of love. But system laws make it all against the law, and if I'd tell you what I think, I'd probably break the law publishing it! Whew! Wow! The system really stinks! It is a pit of lies and deceit and fiendish propaganda against the laws of God and the love of God and the sex of God! It's almost totally against nature!

Here are a few more paragraphs on Berg and Zerby's endorsement of incest for good measure:

20. (MARIA: WELL, WHAT ABOUT INCEST?-THAT'S A BIG BIG QUESTION IN THE FAMILY RIGHT NOW) Honey, this subject of incest is so dangerous I hardly even dare talk about it in the privacy of our bedroom! I mean the System practically goes berserk when you talk about incest! (Maria: Well, we'll just have to tell the kids that it's not prohibited by God, but you'd better watch out because it's dangerous!) Of course it is!

21. IT IS THE MOST DANGEROUS FORM OF SEX & THE MOST PROHIBITED BY THE SYSTEM!--As far as the System goes & as far as the law goes it is absolutely taboo! Illegal! Dangerous! The System & the Systemites are so absolutely crazy on the subject they would practically lynch you & string you up & not even wait for a trial or have you arrested or anything, that's just the way they are!-Insane!

25. AND MY GOD, DON'T YOU EVEN DARE TALK ABQUT INCEST, it's almost a word you don't even hardly dare pronounce in private, much less engage in it! You can't even teach your own children about sex! You can be accused of incest or corrupting a minor or promoting juvenile delinquency or contributing to the delinquency of a minor. I mean there are oodles of all kinds of crazy laws against anything about sex.

According to Berg, there are no age restrictions:
23. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL AGE HAS GOT TO DO WITH IT when God made'm able to enjoy it practically from the time they're born! But though God didn't count them as under age to have sexual feelings & sexual responses & sexual nerves & sexual orgasms from the time they're born, the system prohibits them from having them until they're 18 to 21 years of age!

And here are some quotes where Berg says as long as you have the faith for it you can do anything, have any type of sex with anyone at any age.
77. WHEN HE SAID, "ALL THINGS ARE LAWFUL UNTO ME, BUT ALL THINGS ARE NOT EXPEDIENT" (1Co. 6:12), he was as good as saying, "I can indulge in any kind of sex I want to, but I've got to watch our for the system because it's against the law!" (Maria: At least not let'm find out if you do it!) Yes. He said, "Against such there is not law" (Gal. 5:23)-against those things that are done in love. How can there be any law against love? Well, because of the Devil, he hates it.

35. AS FAR AS GOD'S CONCERNED THERE ARE NO MORE SEXUAL PROHIBITIONS HARDLY OF ANY KIND, EXCEPT HE SURE SEEMED TO HATE SODOMY & I don't see where He withdrew that.--But whatever it is, there might be exceptions as long as it's in love. God's only law is Love!--And I'll tell you, it's dangerous because the System sure hates it,& the System's laws & everything are geared against sexual activities of all kinds & types, particularly having anything to do with children!-- You don't even have to be a child, just a minor, & in some countries a minor is 23 years of age! Ha! Catholic countries!

37. IF IT'S NOT OF FAITH &IT'S NOT IN LOVE, IT'S SIN!--Even if it's right! Even if it's not wrong! Even if legally, technically, according to God's Law of Love it's really not wrong & could even be right, it's wrong for you if you haven't got the faith for it & if you haven't got the love for it! My Lord, how totally messed up the world is! So totally messed up that anybody who wants to fight for openness about se in any way, legally or in literature, ort or anything, has to be very very careful they don't violate the system's very strict rules about sex!
In classic circular reasoning, Berg says you can do anything (have any kind of sex) if it's done in love, and he makes a case for how sex is proof of love in at least 20 paragraphs. Here are 3 of them:
130. SEX PROVES LOVE? OF COURSE IT PROVES LOVE! But sad to say, with the degeneration of mankind and the diabolical doctrines of the Devil and his hatred for sex, he so perverted mankind to where he's managed to make sex prove hate! Some people fuck because they hate each other, for the perversion! What a twist! How crooked can the human mind and spirit and heart become? As crooked as they have made their sex and their bodies! All kinds of perversions and perverted positions and everything else, filth and uncleanness!

132. BUT SEX CERTAINLY PROVES LOVE! THAT'S THE WHOLE BASIS OF FFING! You don't believe that? (Maria: Yes, I do!) Why did you ask me the question? (Maria: Because I think young people today need to understand the real true meaning, because just like you said, they've been so perverted that they don't understand that. They've been fucked lots of times, not out of love but just because it's been a selfish need, so that's why we have to show them, like the archaeologist digging out the rubble, showing the true basis and the true facts.) Amen, amen.

133. SO SEX PROVES LOVE, TRUE LOVE! TRUE LOVE IN PROVEN BY SEX! That's one of the major ways to prove it, either by fucking or dying, one or the other! That's the whole idea of FFing, if by sex you can prove there is love, thereby you prove there is God, because God is love. If you can prove to these men through sex that you love them, therefore you prove that love exists, especially if they know it's sacrificial for the girl or they have their babies, our "Jesus Babies". GB'm!

So it stands to reason then, according to Berg, that if we love someone, we show it by having sex with them; and there are no restrictions or limitations of any kind as long as it is done in love; and there are no restrictions of any kind even regarding incest, but it's just such a dangerous thing you have to do it in secret.

I could go on and on, but a full commentary on the letter will be released soon on www.exfamily.org including details on how Berg lied about a famous court case regarding a sex crime.
