I am a fan of Ice Wine from Germany.

lol ice wine is only made every few years as the conditions have to be just right. They grapes are frozen during the whole process...including when they are picked

Ah my dear friend, now we can talk about sour grapes. Oh my, but I learn something new everyday.

sour grapes
pl.n. Denial of the desirability of something after one has found out that it cannot be reached or acquired: The losers' scorn for the award is pure sour grapes

I suspect that sometimes being a good Chistian is not attainable for some people and therefore becomes "sour grapes". Do you suppose my dear Mont?

I would suppose that we are all sour grapes then, for none of us can be a good Christian on our own efforts but only His work in us that sanctifies us. There is no good in me except Him.

We're supposed to be talking about masturbation. I say "let the one who is without sin throw the first stone". No stones would be thrown at the masturbater.

lol no, grapes, sour or not, don't go well with my coffee.


hmmm there is a fine line (and I would suppose it is a matter of the heart) while we are not judge in condemnation we are to call a sin a sin and hold each other up so to overcome the sin.....regardless of what the sin may be.

I like the way you talk Mont.

You say it as it is while embracing all around you. Christ would pick you for a disciple.

Thank you for your kind words. I must say I have noticed your humility in other threads. I am sad to say that any grace and mercy seen in my posts is not me...but grateful that it is Him in me. To Him be all the glory.

Left to my own devices I am as prideful and harsh as anyone.

Oh, I see. You are like another friend of mine. It is also not him, just God. Well, I am here to talk with you. When I want to talk with God, I go kneel in my bedroom. I am sorry to give you the sad news, it is you, Mont, who I have been talking with and God is right there with you. But I am talking with you. If it is not you, tell me and I will go away.

I see your point. I made that statement to help keep me in check so my pride doesn't run amock. I must acknowledge and praise Him for the work He has done, is doing, and will do in me and all His children.

you are a wonderful person. I think maybe that when a person says that it is not them but that it is God, then it becomes easy to think that we are always absolutely right because it is God talking and God if right. We humans are fallible and I think we must speak as the fallible beings that we and we would be gentler with one we think is sinning because if it is us personally viewing, we fallible humans don't know who is sinning. I was told once, and believe......believe nothing that you hear and only half of what you see. We only see the surface. God sees what is inside. We cannot condemn what we do not know.

The bible is full of God's love. It is also full of God's condemnation. So why is it okay to spread His condemnation but not okay to spread His love. I don't get it.

 

[mont974x4]

You're right. I suppose I need to learn to accept love and kind words from others with more grace. I should have said a simple "thank you". so I will now

Thank you

Wonderful. I love you and I think God would want you for a disciple. I speak from my heart and my heart never lies.

Masturbating is something people do when they have no other outlet for sexual needs. When it is done for other other purposes such as coveting someone else's wife or some women or pornographic use, then it becomes something else and should be dealt with as something else that it is.

To deal with masturbation under all its umbrellas in the same thread is to lose the whole point of talking about it. Might be compared to sitting Hitler in the sandbox with Jewish babies. Sound silly?? Well so is putting all forms of masturbation in the same box silly.

Start a new thread on lustful masturbation or head your post witH LUSTFUL MASTURBATION or SIMPLE RELEASE MASTURBATION. You say there is no such thing? Yes there is. There is nothing in this world that is just absolutely THIS and NOTHING ELSE. That is purity which belongs to God alone.

touching yourself is physically important for men. There are a bunch of those little guys trying to get out, and they have no idea whether their coming out is a result of sin, nuetrality, or marital bliss. Some say you will go blind it you do it, some say you will go sterile if you don't. Which is better?

LOL....love your choice of words. Some say it makes you crazy but me and a few other people are still quite sane. Fun and silly but definitely not crazy.

You could answer this question yourself, simple..Everybody knows when they do something wrong...reborn or not....Does it feel like sin to you...to ask such a question you most likely have some urges or thoughts...if it feels like guilt, it is guilt..guilt=wrong=sin.....
