This has always been a problem with those that claim to be free from pre-marital sex in line with their religious beleive, but yet the are found of masturbation. Please i want your answer with reference from the scripture.

Nowhere in the Bible does it directly and clearly state that m@asturbation is forbidden.

Look, I am an atheist so I cannot tell you what is religiously acceptable to you or not. However, I was certainly raised with a religious education and spent much time trying to find out what is sinful and what is not. There is no verse in the Bible which says "Do not m@sturbate: it is a sin". Nowhere in the Bible does it say that stimulating yourself to climax is a sin. Period. So enjoy your hand; whether you are male or female, the hand is perfectly designed to bring you maximum pleasure. Do you think it is a coincidence?

Besides, your hand cannot cause pregnancy, it cannot give you a disease, it won't ask for money, and it will never refuse your request. Your hand is your friend with benefits.

Self-service is not a sin but it will very well inhibit your spiritual growth. When it becomes an addiction, You will find yourself reaching for it (like a baby self-soothing by sucking on a dummy) rather than reaching for the Lord. Introduction of images and objects is not advisable!

romns 4 vs 15 but where there is no law, there also is no violation. i am yet to see any laws in the bible against masturbation yet. so its not a sin.

The fact that it wasn't labelled sin doesn't make it right. It's still a bad habit . Like every other bad habit. Not all bad habit are sin against God. The habit of smoking and driinking for example can't be labelled as sins against God . Buts it's a bad habit.

Some people drink their urine some eat sand , soap etc . They are bad habit . Such people need help but they shouldn't be labelled as sinners
Re: Is masturbation a sin or not? by okeyxyz(m): 6:47pm On Oct 18, 2012
@OP, To tell you the truth, christians are just confusing themselves. First, is it a sin to have se.x with a woman\man you are not married to? If your answer is yes, then we can equally extend that mast.urbation may be a sin. Why is it that if you are "turned-on" by a woman but you are barred from actually engaging in physical se.x but then you go into your bedroom(or bathroom) to mast.urbate while imagining yourself having s.ex with the same woman then it's ok? There's a word for this: HYPOCRISY!!. simple and short. if the act itself is a sin, then the enjoyment of the fantasy of having the same illegal act must be sin too. How about watching por.n? since it is an instrument for mast.urbation. If you excuse mast.urbation, then perhaps you'd want to do the same for por.n.

Now I'm not saying what is a sin or what is not, just asking logical questions. Somebody should take pastor chris oyakhilome to task on these critical questions rather than finding excuse to pervert your doctrines.

All sex and sexual acts are to be chaneled towards procreation and the mutual self-giving of each married partner to the other. Any sexual acts outside this is a SIN. Masturbation inclusive.

Give me a clear, straightforward verse that says that m@sturbation is a sin. If it is clearly a sin then the Bible should spell it out in clear language.

Satan and God died in a horrible accident on the Lagos-Ibadan highway several years ago. I am not his agent, I am an independent contractor.
