 Moses David: A False Prophet: The Family
When we take a critical view at the American David Berg, who was considered a prophet and called Moses David by his followers in the religious sect "The Family" (previously known as "The Children of God"), certain norms for true and false prophecy may be used.
When these criteria are applied to the actual circumstances regarding David Berg and our knowledge of him (partly on the basis of what he has written himself, and partly on the basis of the testimony given by recent and former followers), we are left with two main problems concerning his genuineness as a prophet.
Another important text for David Berg is his argumentation that he is the prophet in Isaiah 55:3-4.

 ^^ Kent, Stephen Ph.D.: "Lustful Prophet...Psychosexual Historical...Children Of God...David Berg" - CSJ, ...
Using both autobiographical material from Berg's letters to followers and interviews with former members who knew him personally, this essay argues that the group's controversial sexual practices are a direct reflection of early sexual trauma that Berg experienced within his sexually repressive and punitive family environment.
After years of Berg's relative failure as a Christian minister, the death of his overbearing mother during the period in which he was successfully proselytizing California hippies allowed his repressed sexuality to appear in the form of innovative social mores for his group.
In Berg's case, formerly repressed, then unbridled sexuality served as the basis for the group's ideology and deviant social behavior.
