**is Masturbation A Sin??? by Nobody: 3:28pm On Aug 23, 2016 |
This is a topic many people shy away from..and are embarrassed to discuss.. A lot of people do ask if masturbation is a sin according to the Bible.. And I ask also.. Is masturbation a sin? I have searched the Bible and even google it to know iff any Bible verse talks about masturbation..either as a sin or not.. There is simply no Bible verse that says "Masturbation is a sin!" Now, why then do christians refer to it as a sin? 1Cor 6:18 says any sin a man commits does not affect his body,but the man who is guilty of sexual immorality sins against his own body.. Reading Further..we are meant to understand that our body is the temple of God..and we are not meant to defile it. 1Cor 10:31 beseech us to do everything to the glory off God.. Does masturbation glorifies the name of God? Whatever you cannot boast of to people and talk about freely is definitely unclean. Eph 5:3 tells us to flee from every sexual immorality..is masturbation moral? Romans 14:23b says "for whatsoever is not of faith is sin"... Does the holy spirit dwell in a man who has no faith in him? Is masturbation showing you as a man of faith and endurance? 1Thess 4:2-8 talks on how God is against immorality..and whoever refuses or rebuke the teaching is rejecting God and the Holy Spirit. Masturbation is a demon that refuses to leave when invited.. It becomes a god and controls the affairs of your body.. You may think it is better to masturbate than fornicate..but I tell you today.. Fornication is not just having sex with whom you are not married to..but satisfying yourself with things that are not right.. God created sex for couples.. Masturbating is just like telling God you can't be patient.. John 8:34b "whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin".. When you give yourself to masturbation.. You become a slave to it.. Now,masturbation is not the major problem..but what led to it.. It is not possible to masturbate without thinking of sexually stimulated things..and that is what makes it a sin! Remember that the Bible says in Matt 5:28 that if you look at a woman and lust after her,you have commit adultery already..applic able to women as well.. Is it possible to just masturbate without lusting after someone of opposite sex? 1John 5:17a says "all unrighteousness is a sin"... Does masturbation present you as righteous? The Holy spirit will never dwell in a polluted place.. Masturbation has great effect on an individual psychologically,morally and spiritually..it kills the spirit gradually.. It consumes and enslave.. There are somethings that the Bible will not point out specifically to us..but the Holy Spirit is there to explain if we are ready.. Although the Bible never mentioned masturbation as a sin or not...but,can you do it in the light? Is it morally right? Flee from every sexual immorality.. The devil has lots of devices to lure you into sin.. Are you battling with masturbation? Call unto God..He is more than willing to help.. . . . #Slow_wind 1 Like |

Is masturbation a crime ? No it isn't. That should be the question. 1 Like |
Re: **is Masturbation A Sin??? by HCpaul(m): 5:32pm On Aug 23, 2016 |
ifenes: Perfect answer. But sometimes, our conscience do predict our moral actions. Some years ago whenever I went for a vigil, my conscience keep telling me that am doing the wrong thing. Whereas vigil is not a sin but my fraudulent pseudo-conscience wants to emulate the attribute of immorality (religiously known as sin) into it. But the real question is that is it a crime? ? If someone enjoy it, derive pleasure in it, and it eventually makes him/her feel happy then it is good but not yet considered moral. Another question is that won't it harm other individuals?? Will it eventually lead to sickness that will swallow up one's family finance? Does it implants uncontrollable urge to sleep or rape women? Does it makes one's feel dizzy and weak? Does it saves a victim from fornication and sleeping with ladies? Then if someone successfully passed the above question then it is moral to masturbate. Though morality varies in degrees. A victim is also smart for intelligently mimicking images of natural objects as an imaginary one simulated in the brain. Masturbation is very good and recommended while it also sharpens the brain. 1 Like |

Tenniebenson: At first I thought this was a genuine question, but as I read further, it became obvious that you pre-have your answers already. The bible answers all, after all. I watch with dismay each day, as religion does a very, very good number on billions. It is remarkable! I see many mentions of unclean and inpatience and sin and such. The general assumption being that sex is evil, and God has a big, big problem with it. It is not a sin when you eat to fill a hungry stomach, or urinate to empty a full bladder, but it is a sin to touch one's genital to feel pleasure and relief? What is really wrong with you people? I'm sorry for my tone, such things really get me riled up. I wonder if people are reasoning at all. Very then, please. As you were. Thanks. 4 Likes 4 Shares |

masturbation is a big sin. It is in the bible but u didn't see it because you only read letters nt ryhma . isn't it in your bible that carnal people have lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes and pride of life If you will agree with me, masturbation comes as a result of satisfying demonic LUST of the flesh (hunger for sex), and masturbation is just a way to improvise for fornication. I was delivered from that acts after series of fasting . Mind you, masturbating is an addiction , and addiction is a negative word. Don't drive at stupid reasons and deceiving yourself why you must masturbate. They are demonic reasons. No two way to it, masturbation is a sin due to your hunger to satisfy your lust. 1 Like |

Tenniebenson: The bolded is what killed your argument. If I cannot boast to people about farting for 12seconds non stop then by your premise, it is definitely unclean and therefore a sin. Tenniebenson: The conclusion of your argument is that masturbation is a sin and hereby equivalent to doing the real act. The negative implication of this conclusion is that one who is burning with so much lust can reason this way, 'rather than just masturbate, let me just go to a strip club and derive maximum enjoyment' in other words, if I want to eat a frog, I should eat a juicy one. |

Pes13: You are wrong. There are people that masturbate that doesn't even have passion for sex. The sin concept is another dimension of immorality. |

SHALOM! Your Problem seems to be that you just do not know that some things are simply not your business! Tenniebenson: . MATTHEW 15:7-9. 7. "Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, 8. 'THIS PEOPLE DRAWETH NIGH UNTO ME WITH THEIR MOUTH, AND HONOURETH ME WITH THEIR LIPS; BUT THEIR HEART IS FAR FROM ME. 9. 'BUT IN VAIN THEY DO WORSHIP ME, TEACHING FOR DOCTRINES THE COMMANDMENTS OF MEN.' " WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF "SIN?" . DEUTERONOMY 12:32-13:5. 32. What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it. IF there arise among you a Prophet, or a Dreamer of Dreams, and giveth thee a Sign or a Wonder, 2. And the Sign or the Wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, "LET US GO AFTER OTHER GODS, WHICH THOU HAST NOT KNOWN, AND LET US SERVE THEM;" 3. Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that Prophet, or that Dreamer of Dreams: for The LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your Heart and with all your Soul. 4. Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear Him, and keep His Commandments, and obey His Voice, and ye shall serve Him, and cleave unto Him. 5. And that Prophet, or that Dreamer of Dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from The LORD your God, Which brought you out of the Land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the House of Bondage, to thrust theeout of The Way which the LORD thy God Commanded thee to walk in. . 1st JOHN 3:4. 4. Whosoever committeth Sin transgresseth also The Law: for Sin is the Transgression of The Law. ONLY THE TRANSGRESSION OF THE LAW OF MOSES IS A SIN. People who INVENT Sins that do not exist use them to control weak, ignorant, and gullible people. That is all this is used for. The people who claim that GOD TOLD THEM THESE NEW COMMANDMENTS ought to be the most Spiritually-Powerful persons in the History of the World! PAUL is an example of that. . GALATIANS 1:11-12. 11. But I certify you, Brethren, that the Gospel which was preached of me is not after Man. 12. For I neither received it of Man, neither was I taught it, but by the Revelation of Jesus Christ. THE AVERAGE CHRISTIAN IS TRAINED TO BE STUPID, AND NOT RECOGNIZE, NOT HEAR AND UNDERSTAND WHAT PAUL JUST SAID HERE. PAUL did not want the Gentiles to read THE LAW OF GOD BY MOSES- because, among other reasons, they would have found these Commandments there, and realized what he was really doing. . LEVITICUS 19:14. 14. "Thou shalt not curse the deaf, nor put a stumblingblock before the blind, but shalt fear thy God: I am the LORD." . DEUTERONOMY 27:18. 18. “CURSED BE HE THAT MAKETH THE BLIND TO WANDER OUT OF THE WAY.” And all the people shall say, "AMEN." THE WAY TO THE FATHER IS THROUGH YAHSHUA, AND YAHSHUA ALONE. . JOHN 14:1-7. "LET not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 2. "In my Father's House are many Mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3. "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 4. "And whither I go ye know, and The Way ye know." 5. Thomas saith unto him, "Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know The Way?" 6. Jesus saith unto him, "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7. "If ye had known me, ye should have Known my Father also: and from henceforth ye Know Him, and have seen Him." . JOHN 14:21-27. 21. "He that hath my Commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." 22. Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, "Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the World?" 23. Jesus answered and said unto him, "If a man love me, he will keep my Words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24. "He that loveth me not keepeth not my Sayings: and the Word which ye hear is not mine, but The Father's which sent me. 25. "These things have I spoken unto you, being (yet) present with you. 26. "But The Comforter, (which is) The Holy Ghost, Whom The Father will send in my Name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 27. "Peace I leave with you, my Peace I give unto you: not as the World giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." DO YOU UNDERSTAND. THERE IS NO "CO-REDEEMER," "THERE IS NO "ASSISTANT-SAVIOUR." There is NO REPLACEMENT for the TEACHINGS OF YAHSHUA- which are the ONLY TRUE GOSPEL that there is. When you are trying to make up Sins that do not exist, you have not reached THE FATHER. . GALATIANS 5:1-4. STAND fast therefore in the Liberty wherewith Christ hath made us Free, and be not entangled again with the Yoke of Bondage. 2. Behold, I Paul say unto you, “THAT IF YE BE CIRCUMCISED, CHRIST SHALL PROFIT YOU NOTHING.” 3. For I testify again to every man that is Circumcised, “THAT HE IS A DEBTOR TO DO THE WHOLE LAW.” 4. Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are Justified by The Law; ye are fallen from Grace. WHAT PAUL SAYS HERE IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT! He knew that the Gentiles would not be aware that GOD had SAID: . GENESIS 17:1-14. AND when Abram was ninety years old and nine, The LORD appeared unto Abram, and said unto him, "I am The Almighty God; walk before Me, and be thou perfect. 2. "And I will make My Covenant between Me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly." 3. And Abram fell on his face: and God talked with him, saying, 4. "As for Me, behold, My Covenant is with thee, and thou shalt be a father of many nations. 5. "Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made thee. 6. "And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7. "And I will establish My Covenant between Me and thee and thy Seed after thee in their Generations for an Everlasting Covenant, to be a God unto thee, and to thy Seed after thee. 8. "And I will give unto thee, and to thy Seed after thee, the land wherein thou art a Stranger, all the land of Canaan, for an Everlasting Possession; and I will be their God." 9. And God said unto Abraham, “Thou shalt keep My Covenant therefore, thou, and thy Seed after thee in their Generations. 10. "This is My Covenant, which ye shall keep, between Me and you and thy seed after thee; 'EVERY MAN CHILD AMONG YOU SHALL BE CIRCUMCISED.' 11. "And ye shall Circumcise the flesh of your foreskin; and it shall be a Token of The Covenant betwixt Me and you. 12. “And he that is eight days old shall be Circumcised among you, every man child in your Generations, he that is born in the house, or bought with money of any Stranger, which is not of thy seed. 13. "He that is born in thy house, and he that is bought with thy money, must needs be Circumcised: and My Covenant shall be in your flesh for an Everlasting Covenant. 14. "And the uncircumcised man child whose flesh of his foreskin is not Circumcised, that Soul shall be cut off from his people; he hath broken My Covenant." CIRCUMCISION IS IMPORTANT. PAUL did not want the Gentiles- the non-Jews- to know that, in order to "THRUST THEM OUT OF THE WAY WHICH THE LORD GOD COMMANDED THEM TO WALK IN." No Israelite WANTED any Gentile to SURPASS them. The Jews did not even want other Jews to surpass them. Therefore Yahshua's Disciples personally sabotaged the Early Church. PETER made up a Commandment that said that lying to HIM was LYING TO GOD- and the JUST PENALTY for that was DEATH! He and the Jewish Christians tried to ban the gentile Christians from learning THE LAW OF GOD BY MOSES! It is truly incredible that NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THIS! Instead you are talking about "MASTURBATION," when there are people trying to use The Name of Yahshua to KILL. Instead you are talking about "MASTURBATION," when there are Christians VULNERABLE TO DEATH- risking their lives for The Gospel. Instead you are talking about "MASTURBATION," when there are Christians who think that YAHSHUA and the Israelites were WHITE people. Instead you are talking about "MASTURBATION," when there are people saying that THE POPE is the VICAR OF CHRIST- and PROTESTANTS give him respect!

What!!!!!!!!! Do you not know that your body is God's temple.... It is not yours. Oh my.... you were bought with a price... a priceless price. Present your body to GOD as a living sacrifice. |
Re: **is Masturbation A Sin??? by Alexandro15: 8:01pm On Aug 24, 2016 |
Op, thank you for this. You did a great work. The thing is that everybody, yes, even those who indulge in it, know that it is not right. That is why they argue and find claims to justify their acts. 1 Like |
