Sex And Masturbation

Sex is divine? True. Masturbation? Never was, never has and never will be.

Sex is intercourse between male and female for the purpose of reproduction and pleasure. It eases tension, it calms the hormone, it's spiritual and ultimately complicated. It's a soul tie (a covenant) between two parties and deeper than what we really think it is.

Masturbation on the other hand is the erotic stimulation of ones own genital organ  commonly resulting in orgasm and achieved by manual or bodily contact exclusive of sexual intercourse by instrumental manipulation and occasionally by sexual fantasies or by various combination of this agencies.

Now let's check out the biblical version of both.

Biblically, sex is God's given gift, for the purpose of procreation, intimacy, comfort and physical pleasure. It is a fulfillment of God's created order between husband wife. Outside marriage or wedlock it's termed immorality.

There are two sides to every coin, people all over the world have different opinion on masturbation. Some say masturbation is not a sin because it was not categorically mentioned in the bible, others claim it is.

Oh well, for me, masturbation is self abuse. This is when lust comes to play in the picture. As far as i'm concerned. Lust is a sin against the Holy spirit and masturbation falls under Lust. And he he, "making out" is not exempted. it's a sin.

Lust is a strong sexual desire and so is masturbation.

Sex before marriage is sin and the wages of sin is death(spiritual death). Sex before marriage exposes one to unhealthy lifestyle(s). Parties involved are prone to sexual transmitted diseases and other negative vices. Sex literally never satisfies, because you want more and more of it. While not take a chill pill and do it right where you don't feel guilt all over.

Abstinence is never easy at all! But regret is never experienced. Physiologically, sex is needed for the survival of man. But trust me, we could distract ourselves from lustful thinking and premarital sex by averting our thoughts to things that we love to do. This way, we engage ourselves with better and righteous things befitting to our body and soul. In truth, the wait is worth it.

Are you a sex addict, in the habit of masturbating, or always lusting over what's unhealthy for your lifestyle? I urge us to try something new today. Let's challenge ourselves this day to do it right, for there are two pains in life; pains of discipline and pains of regret. The former always emerge victorious. Discipline is key in every sphere or ramification of our lives.

Tomorrow, I'll discuss on the challenges we can indulge ourselves in while we fight this good fight.

Too difficult to preach  abstinence at this era? Naa, it's not. Whatever we set our minds to attaining, is what we achieve.


Let's try something new today and let's do it right too. Have a blessed day.
