Questions

We have had literally thousands of emails about this particular issue. We have heard all the scenarios. “Well if I think about fruit while I’m masturbating, then that is not a sin.” Well isn’t that clever. Or…”If I’m giving glory to the Lord while I’m doing it, then that can’t be wrong.” Hmmm. Why don’t we just make that part of our Sunday morning services then? We have heard all the Pro-masturbation Christian arguments and we wonder if these people are dealing in reality. It’s all very intellectual and quite scholarly, but we still don’t get it. Sorry.

Our stance is simply this: you want to live a life that is honoring to God then start pleasing him and stop pleasing yourself. Stop making excuses and get some control over your life. Yes, it is tough. Yes, we know hormones are raging. However, God is calling us to holiness. Live an extraordinary life. Masturbation will leave you hanging every time! It is a selfish act that pleases no one but YOU. God created sex to be between a man and his wife. Not a man and his girlfriend and not a man or woman with himself or herself.

The thing is with this type of sin you need to talk to someone about it. This si fills you with the feeling of guilt and shame that is tough to work past but, you have to. You need to bring someone you know on board with this and get accountability right away.

You need to set up boundries, get online accountability with X3 Watch, and develope a plan with your accountability partner.

This person can be someone from your church, church staff, family member, or a friend. But you need to find some one who will hold you accountable and be willing to fight for you.

Can you please email me at [email protected]? for some reason your question came in really scrambled. Thank You Brian
