"You have heard that it was
said, ‘You shall not commit adultery. But I tell you that anyone who looks at a
woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his
heart."--Matt. 5:27-28 (NIV)
One of the reasons God created Eve
was because He did not want Adam to end up in masturbation lifestyle. Sound
funny, right? (Please read Gen. 2:18; Eccl. 4:11).
Understanding What Masturbation IS?
Masturbation is a sexual activity where someone derives
sexual pleasure or satisfaction by rubbing or playing with his/her sexual organ
with their hands or with the help of any instrument.
We have male and female masturbation.
Masturbation is one of the most common sexual behaviors
among young people—yet nobody sees the effects and dangers around it.
The truth has been swallowed up with many lies and
misconceptions.
Of a truth, people are destroyed because of lack of
knowledge—God’s knowledge.
Understanding
the Cause
Loneliness + Uncontrolled sexual
urge = Masturbation.
Masturbation is caused an unclean
spirit.
It is addictive and habitual. It has a strong bonding
power to cage its victim for a lifetime.
This force of masturbation is so strong that when it
comes upon someone, until he/she engage in the act the spirit will not leave.
Masturbation is having a strong
desire to satisfy flesh. God warned us against seeking to satisfy or please the
flesh or our carnal mind. (See Romans 8:6-8)
Masturbation is a consolation of the devil to bridge your
sexual immoral desire and lust.
**God is too Holy to ever suggest
masturbation as an antidote for your sexual lust or urge**
Many people try to treat
masturbation as common and casual. Some felt that it should not be given
attention because it is just a bad habit and not more. THIS IS NON SENSE!
Masturbation is more than just a bad habit…IT IS SEXUAL
IMMORALITY…IT IS A SIN AGAINST GOD.
When we lack this truth and understanding…we will
continue to live in bondage of falsehood.
When you look carefully at the above
opening scripture, you will discover the powerful truth Jesus revealed to us:
Sexual immorality is more than just sexual intercourse...
THIS IS IT:
**Every sexual gratification,
relieve or pleasure that does not involve a man and a wife (as prescribed by
God) is a sin and evil whether there is an intercourse or not...PERIOD!
Take a look at this scripture:
"AGAIN, IF TWO LIE TOGETHER, THEN THEY HAVE HEAT: BUT HOW CAN ONE BE
WARM ALONE?" (Eccl. 4:11)
This scriptural question is posted to everybody who engages
in masturbation.
THINK—YES, THINK ABOUT IT.
How can you find warm (sexual pleasure) alone?
This reveals and proved that masturbation is abnormal no
matter who or what you are!
Much as Sexual intercourse outside
marriage is condemned...Masturbation is not an Option...
Those who engage in masturbation
have put on a filthy garment. And like Joshua (Zech. 3:1-7), God is ready to
change your garment today...
YOU SHALL
KNOW THE TRUTH…AND THE TRUTH YOU KNOW AND APPLY SHALL SET YOU FREE.
