I came across this and thought it was a interesting read. Thought I'd share.


MASTURBATION IS "SELF-ABUSE."
-----------------edited----------
Fellow Christian friends am warning you against
practicing such habits as your heavenly image
remains disfigured, your human nature and the
consequences of masturbation not only destroying
one's life, but preventing access to Heaven when
Jesus comes in the first resurrection. ----edited----
Sex is God's invention. He is the mastermind behind
it—and His creation is worth far more to Him than
it is to us. This beautiful
expression of love was created out of His own heart,
as a gift to be experienced between a husband and
wife. It is only in marriage that this manifestation of
intimacy can be fully enjoyed in the depth for which
it was created. "Marriage should be honored by all,
and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge
the adulterer and the sexually immoral" (Hebrews
13:4, NIV). "Marriage is honourable in all, and the
bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers
God will judge" (Hebrews 13:4, KJV). 1 Corinthians
6:18 (NIV) further confirms this, saying that unlawful
sexual relations defile our own bodies. "Flee from
sexual immorality. All other sins aman commits are
All sexual immorality begins with a thought. A lustful
thought not taken captive, will eventually lead to
other perversions, because sin reproduces itself in
increasingly greater measures. If we do not deal
with our evil thoughts, they will take root in our
hearts.
It is for this reason that God is soconcerned with
our thought life. Jesus came not only to deliver us
from our "outward" sins, but alsofrom wickedness
that begins in the heart.

I find it ironic in a bad way that you say masturbation is self-abuse while your avatar has someone without a top on.

 

[simplyme_bekah]

Look I think its normal and healthy honestly to masturbate. I just came across this and since this has been a topic of conversation on CC I thought I'd share it.

tube top in my own house that was 90 degrees with no air and high humidity besides shoulders are graceful and pretty and I'm not ashamed to show mine off

Brandon do not Look at My Sister in Christ and Friend Like that please thats disrepectful to me and Her i personally spiritually believe.

 

[Jordache]

I agree only partially. It possible to self-stimulate without fantasy otherwise children wouldn't do it. Boys and girls naturally in exploration on their own bodies. There is nothing sinful about it. Certainly there are boundaries. I'm a woman, so I can only speak for my gender, but even as adults it's possible to do it without fantasy. It's VERY difficult, but possible.
As for it's use within marriage, you are allowed to fantasize about your spouse. So as long as they're the ones you're dreaming about, and your spouse is not being denied by you doing it, then it's not wrong.

I won't speak on masturbation, although I know it is sin, but Bekah, I know where Brandon is coming from. Your picture certainly has capabilities of giving sexual temptations, and we are to not even have the appearance of evil, right? I ask you for the sake of those who are weak in this to please change your picture, I wish you to not be a reason for a brother to stumble, okay? Please.

 

[OFM]

God give us our wonderful bodies. He gave us our emotions and feelings as well. Masturbation comes naturally in both male and female. Boy's and Girl's can begin masturbation as early as two or three years of age. As long as it is not controlling you or you have to do so every day, then it is not a sin. That would be like God giving us two arms, but we must not use them....My opinion only...Cheers

 

[Philos]

Why exactly would you masturbate? Can you truly masturbate in full faith and with a righteous intent in the heart?

Bekah, thank you.

Fellow Christian friends am warning you against practicing such habits as your heavenly image remains disfigured, your human nature and the consequences of masturbation not only destroying one's life, but preventing access to Heaven when Jesus comes in the first resurrection.

That's an interesting claim. As far as I can tell:

Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for a thousand years.

I don't see anything here about particular sexual sins, but there is a mention of martyrdom, apostasy, and taking the mark. If masturbation meant you didn't take part in the first resurrection, I assume the author would have said so. Also:

It is forbidden to discharge semen in vain, in this sexual act in which a male's sperm is consciously 'wasted'

This appears to be a Talmudic prohibition. I'm not sure how much weight this will carry with a Christian audience.

 

[simplyme_bekah]

yeah its interesting viewing what others believe. Why I shared this.

 

[OFM]

i agree with you interesting respone's on this.

 

[Nautilus]

I love how the threads about one thing but one or two people cant ignore the fact that her shirt shows a shoulder...no cleavage or anything just shoulder. How sad some of your lives must be...

 

[Sose]

God looks at the heart.as a man think it so is he. if your fantacizing about any other person other than who you are married to. is love the fresh object , this it . i try any way to have my fantancy and all in truth can not have .i realize to understand God is to understand marriage. promises . covenants. you can never walk away from them and start another in marriage. it is to death do us part.
