Is Masturbation a Sin? - Tim Conway
This is a massive habit that many are addicted to, many who profess faith in Christ are in this category. The issue boils down to true salvation and regeneration. Are you a child of God? Are you justifying your sin, and living in it?

    Is it a sin? It depends: yes, if addicted to it at the expense of using your time and thoughts for being holy in Christ: Galatians 5:16/17, Matthew 5:26, 2nd Corinthians 10:4/5, 1st Peter 1:16... no, it is not sin IF you can discipline your mind (yes it is possible; howbeit rarely, so Tim is wrong on that point)... and IF you are NOT addicted (that is, you masturbate only when the body requires the natural release of fluids). Now, if this was the issue people say it is, then we must ask why the Spirit did not specifically deal with this issue directly in the Bible. "Sexually immorality" is defined by what the Scripures say is immoral, but masturbation is not listed and is NOT a "marriage bed" issue given a celebate life-style can be a life choice (1st Corinthians 7:8/9). Lastly, it is not medically reasonable to suggest the human body doesn't require sexual release of fluid build-up; hence "wet dreams" and morning hard-ons (especially when young). But if the ill thoughts and passions are there with a single man's morning hard-ons, then 1st Corinthians 7:9 likely applies to him. The married man, has his avenue for sexual release, but this, too, can be sin if it becomes addiction or ill thoughts are present. If a single Godly man or Saint says he doesn't or didn't masturbate from time to time (even if only rarely in his Christian youth), then he either is lying (and is ignoring simple human medical physics) or he experienced a rare miracle. I agree that an older man can eventually reach the point of complete sexual abstinence, but this is a matter more of human old-age physics than some sort of miracle we all should expect at the moment of conversion; it would be a miracle if it were normal for typical 18-25 year old men to achieved the same until marriage, but we just don't hear of such things in medical science, do we? I do think this is one very major potential sin issue for most Christian men to seek Spiritual deliverence through on-going sanctification in Christ by the Spirit, because I think most men are addicted and can't control their thoughts (married or not); especially youth... who really need to be sure they've been converted.

    wow.. This Tracy C. made me go throw up. Not just because what he wrote was incredibly AWEFUL but the fact he went against Gods word Verse after Verse explains how its wrong and you shouldn't do it but he still disputes over Lord Jesus Christ's words.. but i also threw up because he reminded me of my old self and it hurts me a lot to think how i could ever live the way i was living after What Jesus did for me. This is not something to even pray for someone about this is a grown man who understands from right and wrong who has made up his mind to not leave his selfish desires he definitely is not a man of holy spirit in him nor will he ever be if he continues to think and live this way. Only one place awaits for him and people like him, HELL!!! Actually Tracy you reminded me of a verse now this verse doesn't talk about Adultery or Masturbation but People just like you who have this problem as part of theyre lives too.


    Matthew 7:15-23"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles? 17Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
    21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'


    You use Gods words from the book and make false statements that not only does the bible not say nor did you at all bring any truth evidence of bible saying its okay to masturbate but also you believe you accepted the false fact in your head that you can follow Jesus to be like him like it says in Scripture and still do something like masturbate, you try to twist the scripture around to find a loop hole for your selfish desires because you dont want to let them go unfortunately for you God never leaves a loop hole he is PERFECT AND WILL ALWAYS BE PERFECT
    you will too one day stand on that spot of judgement day and say Lord Lord did i not use your name did i not read your scriptures and so on and so on and Jesus will say 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoer!' for masturbation is a sin and THAT IS A FACT BY GOD THE FATHER AND LORD JESUS CHRIST himself.
    oh and the whole liquid fluid fill up and morning hard ons thing was the most stupid thing i have ever read or heard of and i'm 23
