Chris Oyakhilome says Masturbation is not a sin.

Jesus says immorality is sin.

Masturbation is immoral.

Who would you go with.

Chris or Christ?


Is missionary or doggy style of intercourse immoral ? And therefore a sin? wink wink And what did Jesus or Bible say about this? Just asking.

what I'm saying is the example you sited involves killing another human being which everyone knows it's bad...

We're talking about self-service that doesn't hurt any second or third party.

Anyone that feels side effects from masturbation has probably done it excessively (everything is suppose to be moderate.

I'm not saying masturbation is good or bad. But my point is who am I to say what someone does in his closet without hurting anybody is bad

"I'm not saying masturbation is good or bad".
"Who am I to say what someone does in his closet without hurting anybody is bad".

Don't just follow the crowd brother, our brain was giving to us to reason logically and know things to do rightly.

Masturbation in itself is a 'diverse concept' that can be observed from different standpoints. Case in point, I personal think it is how and why a person performs this dastardly act that determines whether or not it can be considered a SIN, for example: if after masturbation a person doesn't wash properly, there is a probability that he or she would contaminate the immediate environment with the resulting discharge which by the way is highly receptive to germs and other bacteria.
Advice: If you must do it, do it right and make sure you clean up properly afterwards. Sin is inevitable in our present society.

Please talk smart! What has the popularity of a pastor got to do with a TRUTH which he chose to deny for reasons best known to him? Read up 1st Corinthians chapter 6. It answers this question if only you read with an open mind and ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Masturbation is a sin against your body which the bible calls the temple of the Holy Spirit. God bless you.
Don't just make statements. Tell me why it's wrong.

Masturbation is a sin. But in my experience better you masturbate than have multiple partners o. AIDS is real.
When you are all grown up get a steady babe and knack her steady then you won't need to masturbate.
The minus of masturbate is high too..like weak erection and sinful tots that never go away...spiritually it is a cage to the freedom of the spirit. So please if you never start kindly run away from it. but if you don start kindly draw up your exit plan fast o.

Bullcrap. Jehovah's witnessess feel guilty after undergoing a blood transfusion. Is transfusing blood sinful to you?
Morganie:


That feeling of guilt - after the act - is your spirit, the breath of God in you telling you you have done something wrong.

When you have a drink of water, or walk in the street I'm sure you don't feel any guilt simply for drinking water or walking, and you don't have to hide to drink water, or walk either.

Anything you can't do in the public view, and afterwards feel guilty about is bad. And for masturbation, it is sin. Defend it however you want. Masturbating is an inordinate desire. It is sin.

Don't you get it? You don't own the body
You can't justify the hurt to your body by your feelings.

Your opinion doesn't count.
You hurt your body by the act.....irrespective about how you feel.

18Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. 19Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies

Encourage your children to masturbate. There's nothing wrong with it. Buy the book of masturbation and give them. Tell your daughters to insert cucumbers and carrots inside their private. I only pity those that sees you as their mentor.

Btruth:
whatever made a man guilty after it's action, such as stealing, killing, committing adultery, gossiping and all other little sins that makes one irritated to yourself, means something is not right between you and your creator.
Eating pork or dog meat makes a Muslim irritated, an infusion of blood products or components will make a Jehovah witness irritated. Do you consider these activities sinful? Why?

really? I don't own my body so who does? Lol

Before you reply God, it's the spirit/soul that belongs to God as the body is of this earth and shall remain here(that's why the body becomes useless after death)

Even science has find numerous ways of refilling the body parts.

Then, we can't continue this conversation since you can't back your claims with scriptures.

"He is the Lord of the body"

1Cor 6:12-13

“I have the right to do anything,” you say — but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything” — but I will not be mastered by anything. You say, “Food for the stomach and the stomach for food, and God will destroy them both.” The body, however, is not meant for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Lmao
The christians have done 7 pages of jumping upandan and they haven't been able to state why masturbation is a sin or why it is wrong
Could it be because it's nobody's fukking business what you do with your privates
Hmmmmnm
Could it be because it is actually safer than being promiscuous
Hmmmmmm
Could it be because you can mastutbate to your spouse
Hmmmmnmm
Could it be because Christianity is a 2000 year old joke that is still around today but not even remotely funny as it used to be
Heck Yeah! cheesy

Be civil Mr, I can't remember advising anyone to self-service on this thread...

This is the hypocritical problem you guys have, you guys can easily come online to gossip about people's life (or you've forgotten that one is a sin) yet masturbate in your closet only to come here and display your hypocritical self by throwing stones to what people do in their private life.

I will address this on 2 grounds; on personal experience and based on what God says.
I being in it since and am talking about years, more than 10years, not sure of actual year. Before I got born-again, I always feel ashamed of it, I always try to stop. I discovered it weaken my confidence and try to keep it secret. I discovered that it affect my interpersonal relationship with both sex. I ve girlfriends but I am always boring in the relationships. To say the least, it affect my whole life negatively.
To the second part, some people always say mastibation is not a sin, I will agree with them provided they have never engaged in it before but if you ve, that mean you are deceiving yourself. Before you mastibate, you either being looking at a naked pic or visualizing it in your heart, either ways you are committing a son and when you destroy your body which God call His temple, you are coming a greater sin. Let look at it from this angle, bible told us that the life we are lIving is not ours, it is the life of Christ because He already paid for it,, so do you think Christ will want you to use His life to mastibate, will be accept Christ if you discovered He mastibate. Think about it, God bless you.

I thought you will be happy. Can you now see that it's wrong since you can't advice anyone to do it.

A man who out of masturbation became impotent, or surfer weak erection, is not only wicked to himself but also to his wife and generation.

If a woman out of series of abortion damaged her womb, cover it up and get married to you. Now she's unable to bear children for you. How will you describe such woman?.
so abortion and masturbation are in a way the same? "Christians " grin grin grin cheesy

You're mistaken. Your premise is weak and proves nothing.
It takes an uninformed conscience to consider masturbation a sin.

Thank you sir. It was my humble submission and never claimed that to be divine. But for people of reasoning and those that seek to desist, should, read between the lines. You can't masturbate in the presence of your sisters, brothers and neighbours but in the presence of Allah who sees everything between the heavens and the earths, that's where you commit this sinful, immoral and unhealthy act.
WHO DO YOU FEAR MOST?

And the Holy Books are there. From the Holy Quran I quote again;

“Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts)”
[al-Noor 24:30]

For those that seek for the health risks, it's a good course, which I'm certain you find helpful towards refraining from such sinful act.

However,

“It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allaah and His Messenger have decreed a matter that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allaah and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed into a plain error”
[al-Ahzaab 33:36]

Thanks

Hmmm,do not be deceived evil communication corrupts good manner.its not the Body that We owe,We should turn a new leaf.its a sin let us not deceive Ourselves that's no how U will do it that it will be like a real sex,this is just a deceit from the pit of hell.it makes one to loose His/Her priority in Christ as it will keep killing U gradually. In the old testament someone was killed for not discharging His semen in the right place,He wasted it & He was seriously dealt with. Some Guys & Ladies that are loosed can come out & boost amist there Friends about how they mess themselves, hardly will You see anyone that will say Guys I masturbated yesterday it brings shame & dejection.may God help Us all in Jesus name.Amen
