I know that masterbation is not God honoring. Our bodies are the temple of the lord. We should not find loop holes in the bible to justify our sin. Everyone that thinks masterbation is ok needs to look at: 1 Corinthians 6:18-20.

"Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? For you have ben bought with a price: therefore gorify God in your body."

Finally, I'd like to analyze our motives. We must ask ourselves the following questions:

Am I doing this out of faith?
Is this glorifying God?
Could I kneel down on my knees afterward and thank God?
WWJD?

Do you honestly think that Jesus Mastuerbated?
Give me a break!

The problem with todays christians is that try and find back doors, or loop holes to make ourselves look good in Christ. You all need to stop reading the Bible the way you want it to look. Rather, read it the way God intended it to look.

God Bless!
