Alright, so here it is. I don't know about you ladies out there, but men have sperm build up in their testicles. In time, when this sperm builds up, and fills the mans testicles, sexual urges become more powerful over time. Without any release, over a period depending on their libido, could be a few days, a week, to even once daily, they become very tense, irritable, and just plain uncomfortable, and even the most unattractive female suddenly becomes attractive, not only that, lust becomes more difficult to control, to the point where your mind is rampant with lust, even watching TV becomes a chore, you see a beautiful woman on television and there are those thoughts, and it seems no matter how hard you fight it, they are there and you cant get rid of them. It's not really perverse thoughts, but you do look at even the most unattractive woman with desire.
So, what is a guy to do? I pray - and over time even that doesn't seem to work anymore. The "feeling of a ticking time bomb waiting to explode inside" is there, no matter how much I beg Jesus to help me, and until that bomb finally detonates, I suffer all day with the feeling of lust and desire. So, my question is this - is masturbation really wrong when the thoughts of lust and desire can be controlled during the act? My mind may stray to the point maybe once or twice during the act to something perverted, but only for a very brief split second, to which I manage to gain control over it and continue until the deed is done. It's not like I focus my mind on anything perverted for more than a second, when it hits me, I immediately change my thoughts to something else. Is this really as bad as desire and lusting all day long?
The bible mentions things such as beastiality, incest, homosexual acts, but mentions nothing about masturbation. People will bring up Onan in topics asking about masturbation as a way to demonize the act, but Onan "pulled out" while having sex with his wife so he would not get her pregnant, when God commanded him to impregnate his wife, so he disobeyed God, he was not masturbating. If masturbation is a sin, why did God not have a verse in the bible saying something like "and thou shalt not lay thine hand upon thy rod, and women likewise thou shalt not perform thine same act" okay, that wasn't a very good verse, I probably didn't even use the thines, and thous correctly and you sure can tell God would never use me to write his Word, but you get my point.
So, what to do, what to do? I'm about as confused as you, did God intend this as something for us not to do? Hey, I'm a poet, and I didn't even know it, so is masturbation a sin? If it is so please show it, I don't like going day after day uncomfortable and grouchy, but is playing with yourself naughty? Okay, so that didn't really rhyme too well, but I'm worried and I don't want to go to Hell, why did God create our bodies this way it seems that I'm getting even crazier day after day.
Well, that's that. Feel free to comment, reply, whatever. God bless you guys and gals. Have a good one.
