Does the Bible condemn pornography?
“Everyone that keeps on looking at a woman so as to have a passion for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart.”—Matthew 5:28.
WHY IT MATTERS Today pornography is more popular and accessible than ever before. If you wish to please God and live a happier life, you should know how God feels about pornography.
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS The Bible does not mention pornography specifically. Still, the use of pornography is in direct conflict with many Bible principles.
For instance, the Bible pointedly states that when a married man “keeps on looking at a woman” to whom he is not married, nurturing a desire to have sex with her, it can lead to adultery. The principle behind this Bible statement would apply to anyone, married or single, who “keeps on looking” at pornographic images with the desire to engage in sexual immorality. Such behavior is clearly offensive to God.
Is pornography wrong even when it does not lead to sexually immoral acts?
“Deaden, therefore, your body members . . . as respects fornication, uncleanness, sexual appetite, hurtful desire, and covetousness.”—Colossians 3:5.
 
I have a question towards this blog. Does that include masturbation as well? I've searched the internet for answers but apparently people are saying the Bible is not really clear on this issue.
 
Masturbation is a form of uncleanness. It can make you a ‘slave to various desires and pleasures,’ and it fosters unhealthy attitudes. (Titus 3:3) At the same time, masturbation is not a form of gross sexual immorality, such as fornication. (Jude 7)
