  1. Exactly. Thats what I said as well or was going to say.
     
  2. Your truth is only yours. Be your own judge. If you think thats a sin, thats what it is. Its not about gods but about every man facing himself. As to me, no porn is enough. I masturbate and make sex whenever I wish. No sins, no sorries. Thats about pleasure. Time to simplify life. Be happy, not sad cause of sins. Sex is for joy not for pain!

    I see your point. It was a foolish thing to say. Was probably not the right thing to say to get my point across.

    Thanks for showing me the errors of my ways.

    Guys just want to verify - yes God sees us when we’re naked. He even created Adam and Eve naked in the first place.
    For anyone who remembers the story once they sinned they realized they were naked and tried to cover themselves....

    God knows when we sin and he knows when we are naked - it’s funny to me like when people in the south take off their baseball or cowboy hats when they pray. Does God not hear you when you have your hat on? I get it it’s supposed to be respectful but I’m just adding some humor to the thread well I may offend someone or everyone for that matter. If there’s anyone on this thread who takes off their hat when they pray don’t beat me up. I’m just making a point. About how God sees / hears us.

    Let me just say that I do believe in God and I do believe he is more concerned about our heart than if we are naked or have a hat on when we pray.

    I won’t preach a sermon or anything but the Bible is clear that God looks on mans heart and the truth of what is in our heart. That should be more concerning to any of us then anything else. That is the truth of who we are and that is what God sees.

    Anyway I appreciate all you guys on the forum and all the different opinions and thoughts. Gets me thinking outside of my box sometimes.

    hey guys...let me tell you that it is not a sin...but it's a very big obstacle in your path to awareness and control.man is no the only person who do this..every other creature on the planet do this...but let me tell you guys the true story about the plesure you gain from doin that...millions of years ago in the beginning of all the creature's no one had a powerful mind...the man was also a wild creature...so they won't do anything if it has some benifits on it..that is what plesure is..it existed for the very survival of the human kind....now we are civilized and has a very powerful state in the mind...now we knows that we do that to continue our genaration..meaning kids.....so we do not need the plesure anymore...i'm not saying that sex is bad..but abusing it is the one true sin...this world was not created by God..this was created by the nature and Dharma...the lows of the world rules us all...everyone including gods...They are watching you that is true though..and they will help and protect you if you walks in the path of DHARMA..if you protect it it will protect you..if you do good things nothing bad will happen to you...What goes around comes Around...be a man who knows the truth,do good things,respect even the tiniest life And the life will reward you....:)

    I’ll put this simply ... this is part of your life that God can help you with. Although it’s not just a sprirtual matter. The truth is that I spent years looking at my PMO as only a spiritual issue in relation to my faith like it’s sin and I’m trying not to sin. It’s more practical than just that (although for me I’m not downplaying the sin aspect.) If you have faith and believe in God and you drink alcohol do you get drunk? Yes, if you have faith and believe in God and eat poison do you get sick? Yes. If you have faith and believe in God can you have a PMO addiction- yes. Does God want you to have a PMO addiction- no. This is where the good news comes in he is able to either directly or indirectly deliver you. He wants to be able to live a better life. I have had faith for many years and I have also had a PMO addiction for many years (37 years actually) - I am finally dealing with PMO like it’s an addiction not just a spiritual issue that I am wrestling with. Yes there is a spiritual aspect to this area of my life and how it impacts me but I truly believe - well I know God led me to this forum and also your brain on porn. There have been many things over the last year that have brought me to where I am now. I am almost 5 weeks no PMO and it’s been nothing less than several things that i would easily call miraculous over the last several moths that got me here. The good news is that God has been good to me in spite of me. And I now have hope that I can be free of Porn for good and hopefully M too. With only O with my wife. I haven’t had that hope for years.

    God is good and he does see the truth of our hearts and any other state we see in good or bad. God loves us and proved it to us whether we belief that or not. Anyway I am just making the point that this is a very real and extremely seductive and powerful addiction ... and for any of us with faith in God don’t give up on that faith. And just know there is a lot of practical work in dealing with addictions. Keep your faith and know that God does love you. And learn what you can about how to best deal with this addiction in ways that work for you. We are all different and have different beliefs about God and what he is like and who He is and we all have different life experiences but we can all help each other out and encourage each other. You CAN do this... whatever your goal is. I honestly didn’t think I’d make 10 days and I’m almost at 5 weeks. Find what works for you and build on that. Set your goals and if you fail it’s OK just get back up and keep right on going!

    Good Luck to you and God Bless!

  9. I don't want to be a wet blanket here but I'm sure God doesn't need a picture to see what you're doing.

    God made you man. He's part of you. That's why the Bible tells to glorify God with your body. If and when you glorify your body by abstaining from sexual impurity you directly glorify God Himself. The Bible also tells you were bought at a price. You are not your own. You are of God, and it would take a very evil personality to change that, if such a thing were possible.

    I want to offer you hope. In order to do so, I will write boldly. The edging that led to presumptuous rebellious sexual sin is more dangerous, in that, you don't have remorse. You state that you are justifying your sin. God is not necessarily ("God made you man. He's part of you,") that statement of itself is not true. Do you know Him? Do you have Him in your heart? But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: Ask yourself if you are truly His son? The Bible tells us to confess our sin to God, and, repent from it. Get rid of it. Change your mind about the things you speak to others, and firstly, what you say to yourself. You can do this. Get this in your heart. Your success will solely be determined upon your current relationship with Jesus Christ, and your daily confession to Him in faith.

    Since I am 1 1/2 days to a full 60 days hard mode I can share truth with you, guiltless of any embellishment. And it's before you too, triumphantly. This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. I have not PMO'd in all that time. No wet dreams, just joy in victory. All peace. All sexual sin has been confessed, removed from my mind, and not entertained at all. You can accomplish this too. I beseech you, reject any advice that speaks on fleshly willpower. Willpower cannot save you from disobedience. Disobedience with God leads to spiritual death. The most vital execution you CAN achieve, is prayer, memorizing Scripture, and meditation on His commands / truth; while... "never touch your genitals other than to urinate, and bathe."

    I pray for you to be well.

    Take it one moment; one day at a time. And, if you do itch... "never touch your genitals other than to urinate, and [​IMG]bathe."
