I think this book is harmful, not helpful in overcoming sexual temptation. I haven't read it, just excerpts from it. I know that women are usually offended by it, even with the answers it offers. I'm sure there is much in it that is good and accurate. Let me review the quote. . I don't know...

People have assumed that since they had a down feeling afterwards that this was God's way of scolding them; not at all true. First of all, [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] is a great natural high and when one comes down from a high it doesn't feel good. Second, we actually want a partner and don't have one, so we feel...

Michael seems to equate the "flesh" with "the body" or pleasures of the body, whereas the word "flesh" is best understood to mean "sinful nature". The only way then to know what "desires of the flesh" means is to know what is sinful and what is not. Leviticus 18 is the best way I know to discern...

Something about this conversation smells fishy :P not me!

People that have a substance or process addiction are a small percentage of society and will have characteristics that mark them as addicts or being prone to addiction, for example, childhood emotional trauma. By contrast, masturbation among humans, esp. males is entirely predictable for about...

True, in the sense that we are not to be ruled by our body, so we decide when and whether we want to touch; we aren't to be compulsive about it. Irrelevant. Most of our day is comprised of neutral activities, neither holy nor unholy. Since masturbation is a beneficial activity that begins...

Have you tried posting on Christian dating forums for like minded Christian females who don't desire a family? Are you opposed to marrying a woman who has a child? How did you get the idea that you should be able to do the baby-making act with a lady, then deny her the right to have a baby...

Often women from religious households who are taught that expressing sexual desire before marriage is wrong will have fantasy thoughts about rape, even of themselves being "ravished". Since they are the "victim" of the mystery man's sexual desire, they don't have to feel guilty for the sex being...

Start by quoting me accurately. "nearly all males do it". Any survey you read will document that. We don't know the personal habits of Jesus , but assuming He was celibate and called by God to celibacy, then he had the gift of celibacy (1 Cor.7:5-9) which causes a person to have low...

As I read the definitions you have written, I see a description of lewd public conduct. Obviously, definition 2, "exciting sexual desire" could describe the interaction between a husband and wife, which in privacy is legitimate, but if done in public, it is "lascivious" or "lewd conduct". Sexual...

In answer to the Original Question: No, masturbation isn't a sin and never has been. Do it in private when you feel the need. There is some unsatisfactory feelings that sometimes follow your [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse], this is normal as well, having natural causes, nothing to do with God's feelings toward you. He...

It could be said that Mr. Owens may have over-emphasized or dramatized this truth. The most important thing is that you have "conviction" and assurance that you have been born again, not what you did or didn't feel prior to conversion. Some people, when saved at a young age, aren't much aware...

Actually, 1 Cor. 7:2 and 7:9 have often been misunderstood in this way due to poor translations and poor exposition. Verse 2-5 is spoken to already-married-couples. Some couples were "not touching a woman" because it was supposedly more holy not to have sex. Paul contradicts that false belief...

I just stated what is fairly well known already; if you question if it is true, you can post links that tell us how God made sex so it is unhealthy. It is always good to do our own research.

You're in prison now, Mr. Holmes:argh:. When you return to sanity and have a valid point to make, try again. :yawn:

While your general tone is pleasant, you continue to insist on several things: that fantasies accompanying masturbation are necessarily sinful or that if it's done too often it is sinful. You have implied that it's always sinful for females to do it, since they have no need of [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse]. You...

Your mock suggestion doesn't prove any thing or add to the discussion. First of all, it isn't necessary for us to have a revelation from the Holy Spirit, but simply as Paul said: "Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind." I'm fully persuaded that there is absolutely nothing wrong with...

Another internal absurdity in this "re-enactment" (Post#119) is that if both spouses are together and available, they will likely have sex; and they won't announce it to their 12 year old when they do it or where. The illustration fails.

Its something to be concerned about I totally agree. We need to be good stewards of our time, but if it was a sheer matter of time devoted to something, then we would come to many absurd conclusions.. working 40 hours a week is idolatry. Actual idolatry is worshiping or serving a false god. If...
