Umm, I would just like to say a few things. I will start off by saying me personally have never struggled with porn Praise God, but I had been surrounded by it for years for reasons I won't say. I just want to say that when I read some of the posts here it made my heart ache and I wanted to cry, because it is not something that someone should be proud of, I know that not everyone on here is a christian and won't see it the same way as some christians and it is sad to say that not many christians see it as wrong. But let me say this, if you wouldn' t think of going and doing it yourself like many men and women have done for many different reasons, some may be insecurity,lonliness, looking for love which is done in the wrong way, or for gain, to be liked whatever the reasons may be if you wouldn't go and potray yourself in that way, why is it okay to watch it? What makes it right? These people are potraying something that God gave us as a game, something that disrespects men just as much as women. And it is sad that it sells as much as it does in the world, but it just shows that this world is in need of alot of prayer the younger generation needs to step up and take a stand someone has to do it, if we all wait for someone else there will never be change and this is one of the worst things out there in the media ect I believe it affects both men and women in different ways, it impacts the youth so much. It could start out as curiousity which I believe in most cases for youth thats how it starts, but then it leads to more than just curiousity. It leads to a place where alot dread to be, but are trapped by satans grip and they feel bound and unable to be free. But God's Word brings freedom, God sent His Son so that we could be forgiven of our sins, so that we could have eternal life in heaven, so that we would no longer be just a sinner, but Praise God a sinner saved by grace, God's amazing grace. No longer do we have to be enslaved to sin, but we can be to righteousness God's.. What happened to marriage being sacred and meaningful between two a man and a woman who are brought into a commitment and a covenant with God and one another? Something that was to be done in love, a passion that those two would share together. No one else would share it with them, but them alone together as one flesh. Sex isn't a show it isn't a who can do it better, Adam and Eve for example they weren't shown by two other humans on how to have sex, no one needs to see how to do it God has put the desire in men and women for His purpose. Youth don't need to be seeing how it is done, so then they can go out and play with it like it is a toy and see what this toy can do and how it works. God help the people who teach young kids sex education, because the world is walking around blinded and wondering why are young girls pregnant and why can't these kids keep their pants on, Forgive me I am not trying to be explicit, but I am trying to be truthful, so many want everything said in a nice way and to not hurt anyone and to tickle everyones ears, well God help us all we need to be bold and blunt or else we will continue to talk blinded and in another world where sin reigns, it needs to stop! Porn is a disgusting and horrible thing, and I wish it was never out there, but it is and well we can do something about don't agree with it and think well it is there so well we have to just live with it, thats a lie from the pit of hell you can be free, you can be free, you can be free! It takes steps, it takes strength, it takes help, it takes guidance, it takes GOD! GOD! GOD! To be free God is the only one who can truly free you and give you total freedom from that sin or any sin. This kind of sin brings hurt and harm and pain not only to someone in your life, but mostly to yourself I am not just saying this from someone else's point of view I am saying this from living around it and seeing what it does it is no toy, no game. Think would you want your bf doing it? Here is a story of some people and they have neighbors and well the neighbors came over to them and said would you like to watch this it is us having sex and well the people said no, because it was something that should be between them and no one else, but yet these same people would watch people they don't know doing it. Does it make it right because they aren't watching their neighbors? No it doesn't make it right it is still downright wrong. And if someone doesn't have a conviction about it then they don't know Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. God was and is and will always be, no matter who thinks otherwise... Galatians 5:16-25 (New King James Version) Walking in the Spirit 16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery,[a] fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 10:4-6 (New King James Version) 4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, 6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. 1 Corinthians 6:13-20 (New King James Version) 13 Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 14 And God both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up by His power. 15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For “the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.”[a] 17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. 18 Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. 19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s. 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 (New King James Version) 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. 21 For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 (New King James Version) 12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. 13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. Ephesians 4:17-24 (New King James Version) The New Man 17 This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of[a] the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind, 18 having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart; 19 who, being past feeling, have given themselves over to lewdness, to work all uncleanness with greediness. 20 But you have not so learned Christ, 21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: 22 that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, 24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness. 1 Thessalonians 4:1-8 (New King James Version) 1 Thessalonians 4 Plea for Purity 1 Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God; 2 for you know what commandments we gave you through the Lord Jesus. 3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, 5 not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God; 6 that no one should take advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and testified. 7 For God did not call us to uncleanness, but in holiness. 8 Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given[a] us His Holy Spirit. Joel 2:12-14 (New King James Version) A Call to Repentance 12 “ Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “ Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” 13 So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm. I apologize if I didn't use paragraphs properly..I am not trying to offend anyone, I am just telling the truth so that no ones ears will be tickled for tickling won't bring change, but make wrong seem right! Satan is a theif don't let his ways fool you into sin. You have the ability to choose, and I will say for sure it won't be easy for some, but I am telling you it is worth to go after righteousness then lusts of the flesh, the flesh will only be satisfied for so long, but our spirit can always be satisfied with Christ and the Word of God! Men and women need to be respected no matter if they respect themselves or not we have a responsibilty as christians, we are the body of Christ, the Church, the Bride! How do you want people to look at your bf or future husband or husband, with respect and honor or disrespect and lust of the flesh? And for any men that might read this the same for you, how do you want people to look at your gf or future wife or wife, with respect and honor as a jewel and beauty or with disrespect and lust of the flesh. Both women and men God's heart aches, don't be ignorant enough to think that it doesn't hurt Him, because it does remember He created you in His image.. God Bless and take care. I pray that this would help some who read it, and know that God loves you don't just live with it because it is there, God can bring you freedom and life everlasting life with meaning and a purpose. God has a plan for each and everyone of you, let Him work in your life you can make it with God's help and help of other godly people who are there to help you with the guidance of God and His Word... If anyone needs to talk or help I am here just message me. Be blessed women and even men who read this if any do ....I hope I spelt everything right,lol.... Hebrews 12:1-2 (New King James Version) Hebrews 12 The Race of Faith 1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
