  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

It's a heart issue, a lust problem. It's so easy to see that it's easy to get caught up in it too. Also, a lot of girls struggle with it too, which is something I never realized before. Pornography hurts the girls who care about us. So with that in mind, we have at least one very good reason to avoid it. Hurting someone you claim to care about isn't cool.
Lust is a battle that most of us have to fight, and porn seems to be the preferred vice to get stuck in. I think it's important to have conquered these battles before we get close to someone.

porn is the quickest way to get sexual gratification. when a man feels sexually chareged, he can easily resort to porn and satisfy the ever hungry eyes.

women feel cheated on when men look at porn, and rightfully so. if you are worreid about your current boyfriend, then takl about it with him. But please do not feel pressued to give into sexual immorality so he will not look at porn. As an unmarried woman, you have NO duty to fulfuill for him. A man CAN and SHOULD be in control of his own body, and he has no excuse if he is not.

God has seen in His infinite wisdom to wire males in the certain way to make us very visually seeking beings, and also to make us be physically seeking beings.

i don't want to downplay females or anything, i know that God has created us all as sexual beings. He has provided that as a gift to us, as a blessing.

satan uses everything he can to get us to take our focus away from God, as subtle and as slight as it may be. in the case of guys, he uses one feature of us to be one of our greatest hinderances.

as a guy myself, i know what it was like to fall into the temptation and sin of pornography. praise to the Lord, He has helped me cease this horrible habit. there are a couple pressure points that satan pushes on us that makes it that much easier for us to fall. one is that it is so easy to get to. on the internet, access to just about any information is really easy, and pornography is no exception. people realize that this sells, so it is just EVERYWHERE. so satan likes to dangle it around everywhere. he also likes to make us think that, it doesnt effect us, or anyone else. obviously as you can see, it doesn't. it hurts you, and it does hurt him. so we think we're in this little bubble, where its just us and whatever is in our imagination, and God reallly isn't going to kill us or anything. so satan likes to play the 'who will know?' card.

there is a lot to it, but i am done for now. i hope i have helped a little bit.

in explaining what are some of the specifics, you can see what needs to be addressed and talked about, in order to help him pass the temptation. offer everything up to God. ask to pray with your bf about it. God will move hearts

the most important thing is starting with God, and also prayer. Philip. 4:6 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."

I'd definately suggest praying about it, and after you've prayed talk with him about how much it's hurting you, I was addicted to porn for probably 2-3 years before I was able to stop, and what stopped me is when I really realized how much I was hurting the one that I loved most, my current girlfriend, of 1 year tomorrow, I told her one night that I had screwed up again, after doing pretty good with it for about a month, and she broke down in tears, I couldn't stand that, I felt like such a moron, and I had every right to, that's what I needed to feel like, but she sure got me to stop, so definately talk with him, pray with him, pray for him, hope this helps. God Bless.
