- Ray Graver had been living in Anaheim, may have still been there in this time period, and was involved with Philip in the promotion of Living Stream Ministry control. Philip told Ray about what was going on with the “three holy sisters,” a derogatory phrase that Philip used to refer to them. Philip also told Ray that his father was going to deal with them.

John, your first two points pertaining to Max has been my consideration all along. I could never figure how Jane was tied into what happened in Anahiem. Your proposed scenario seems probable and logical. If this is what happened, the Lord knows. Benson knows. Ray knows. Could this be why there has been no love on Benson's behalf to take care of this relationship? If we as Christian do have love in our hearts for other members of the Body and when relationships are damaged if not strained, we have to check our hearts and consider "what if". What if our speaking was uncalled for? What if our actions were out of line? What if we have something to repent for? That I have no doubt. We each have something to repent for.
