This MASTURBATION ISSUE Some pastors said it is normal, many youth practice it among we christians, it is really evil, AND A STRONG HOLD ON OUR YOUTHS.
PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY LET IT BE BIBLICAL,  SO WE CAN KICK IT AWAY FROM THE KINGDOM OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.

Its a bad habit. The way to stop it is to make decision to stop. You have to apply the power of the word of God to saturate your entire being. (I'm talking about the individual who has a problem with it). Just like every works of the flesh . When you walk in the spirit which is Gods word, your passion begins to die to such lust.

Galatians 5:16
16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

Colossians 3:16
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. . ,

, why will a christian be doing such? And what sort of Pastor will even encourage it?? Good verse from @jeogbaje though. Youths of these days with rush over thing, thats always the root of evil.

it is evil and has a strong hold on many youth.

With God's help you can overcome

masturbation is natural.

if God had a problem with it, you would have been cursed a long time ago.
Perversion and obsession with s3x is the problem.

but to pleasure yourself is not. again it's natural.
