You can tickle me pink, orange, red, or blue, but not grey



I say it's wrong, a sin, and essentially adultery. For a Christian to be doing that means that they either have been led astray/tempted by this since it is very tempting thing sadly. Or maybe they never were really in fellowship with the Lord to begin with. D : Either way it's not a good situation to be dealing with. D :



Because grey will not do.

But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart
~Matthew 5:29

We all have our weaknesses, and when it comes down to it, it's giving into them where the sin occurs. Pornography is a form of adultery on the actors and any future spouses.

However, all sin is equal to God, if one person has an Addiction to
pornography is't no worse than someone who's idol is success. My point is
here it's often a topic people don't want to talk about or are ashamed of, but a
sin is a sin and we all sin.

It's something that as a child of God that have to work through and let the
Lord work through it with you. (1 Corinthians 10:13) It's a promise that God
provides. It may not be easy, but it is not impossible. (Luke 18:27). Even if
we have been saved we still sin and experience the temptations of the flesh
and will continue to do so until we get our new bodies. (1 Corinthians 15:35-
49)

mind you...its a problem that many of us have....and it is a horrid problem and should not be spoken of so lightly....
yes it is a sin....though it is nature for us to seek it out...understandable that we have found it and taken pleasure in it....by no means at all is it acceptable....but it is understandable...

all people can be overcome by sin. Christian or not. Unfortunately pornography and other seeming "private" sins can be more attractive to those who don't want to be seen in the light doing something wrong. But truth is all sin hurts more than just the person who commits it.

I know I have struggled with my own sexual immorality and failed to overcome it alone. It's when we reach out to God and another person and confess our sin that we can begin to find freedom from it. We need to be held accountable for our actions and we need to break the chains that sin has on our lives.

Pornography is all consuming as is the enemy himself who helped this awful thing come to be.

My point being, no one should engage in sexual immorality of any kind and if you do, seek help in breaking that sin. You can't serve 2 masters and when you engage in those things you are serving the enemy NOT God.

God has set aside one person to be your soul mate....same thing for everyone ....would you really be so lax if the person that you would eventually marry and love for your entire life had taken part in such a thing?
porn does not just appear...its made....and basically when we watch...its like us getting off on seeing others violate the future trust of that persons soul mate....every time they make these things they are refusing Gods blessings and stealing from whomever that those people in the films or pictures are and whom they will someday meet fall in love with and marry....
and sex is very powerful....do you really think one can live a normal life loving his wife and only his wife when he had a previous job of having sex with many many many women?

there is no such thing as soul mates. you marry people from your area whom you get along well with. for all you know there's someone on the other side of the world who would be better suited for you, but you're not going to go to that much trouble to find a mate.
just look at the divorce rate.

....a soul mate is someone that God intends you to be with...not some fling you get and fall in love with...
the person that God intends you to be with could be all the way across the world....and that person is your soul mate....no matter who comes before them....that one person is your soul mate...
divorce happens to people who do no know their soul mates....mainly because they just cant function together....
so please....dont try and say such things...

Bottomline here: Pornography is wrong, sinful, and is an action from temptation and lust in the heart.

Most people have this struggle, and I have even dealt with this struggle in my lifetime. I have so far been able to overcome it for a few months now. It takes a lot of Bible reading, understanding, and self-control. Sometimes, if it helps, keep necessary Bible verses on hand or put them on sticky notes and attach them to the computer, tv, or wherever else it is viewed so that as a Christian, you remember to resist porn and not follow the evil temptations (this usually works for me and me telling myself, "This is fake, how dumb." or, "People are putting their virginity and morality on the line to do this so why give in?"). 3nodding

Soul mates truly do exist and are connected to us in an interesting way because God puts couples together for a reason if you allow him to open your eyes and show that to you. I met my soul mate in the funniest way. We both went to a Bible study and someone from that group was having a birthday party and my friends wanted me to go, but I didn't want to and I met a guy there that didn't want to go either, but his friend convinced him to go with him. We knew it was truly meant to be and got married the same year we met. We both know that God put us together for a reason and we want to fulfill the plans that he has in store for us.

However, it's also possible that God doesn't intend for everyone on this planet to get married because of a certain calling he gives to them or for another reason. God works in truly mysterious ways smile he amazes me every day.

That just seems rather rash in my opinion.
