Use this instead:

$sf_user->getFlash('msg', ESC_RAW);

Get Raw Data in the Template in Symfony

echo $page->getRawValue()->getContent();

The $page variable is the model object and the getContent method gets the content column/text which contains HTML tags... To avoid html entities, you have to use the getRawValue method.
