We all want to have sex. Its natural. Having a wet dream is a natural function of the human body. You have not sinned, you are not in danger of Hell. Even if you were sinning, Christ forgives us all. Don't sweat it. Continue loving Christ and follow the convictions of your heart. You'll do fine.

This is my view.It's normal to want sex, it's also OK if someone is asexual, but homosexuality in my view is a sin.I believe God has told us the following:

Galatians 5:16


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

Matthew 5:28 ESV:

But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

and more: What Does the Bible Say About Lust?

I also struggle with this, but then there comes the question, is masturbation without lust a sin? I believe it is, but maybe the Holy Spirit leads someone else to something other, Because the Holy Spirit is Always Good.

God bless.

I've heard it this way: Wet Dreams themselves are a natural function and often cannot be controlled and as such the dreams themselves are not sin. However if you are looking at anything you shouldn't (porn for instance) those images may appear in your dreams. So while the wet dream in itself is not wrong, the image might be.
