The same is happening to women. And because the parents are inviting the lust of their flesh to rule them and allowing those spirits into the home their children will deal with like temptations.. *Sexual bondage is wicked!*

[@alejandromelendez1609]

Porn itself is not inherently bad. But the prevalence of it in modern society is.

[@blacksage8745]

Your respect for women has to increase and you can no longer be a simp. Putting high value on lustful imagery will cause you to miss out on the amazing traits of a woman that actually puts real value to your life. Look into her eyes and see her soul and if there is a connection your commitment to one another will cause the sex to be way better than the feeling of self pleasure by a mile. The difference will be laughable. I hope this comment helped. Love.

Incredibly important advice.

[@Kstukess0]

As a single young bachelor hearing this was quite insightful. Gotta be honest I’m not a Christian but more spiritual to say the least, Ive struggled with porn & masturbation throughout my teenage and young adulthood years. Granted I’ve gotten better with avoiding it and picking up healthier habits/hobbies. But I notice when I get the craving of lust that comes around every once in a while I get caught up into feeding into which disgusts me internally because I know it wasn’t something I wanted to do but due to trauma and old habits I fall back into it. This video hit my timeline for a reason but a season so I’m holding myself accountable to not only avoid it but to replace that old addiction with a healthy addictions like hiking, running, and meditating. It’s time for a complete reset and healing from it especially while I’m single and so these issues aren’t issues when I do decide to pursue a beautiful woman for a relationship. *I wrote this to hold myself accountable and to understand I have flaws and I want to be better for myself.*

You will, not with your strength but with the strength of Christ. Read Romans 6,7,8 and it will teach you how to defeat any stronghold. Pray endlessly even when you fall back into it. Don’t give up and keep your mind on Christ , bring him honor and glory by using your members for righteousness and not unlawfulness. Endure the suffering and resist just as Christ did. He lives within all of us, deny yourself and ask him to captivate every thought. Pray, fast, resist , it will be hard but with Christ all things are possible, the reward will change your life, all you have to do is believe in yourself and put all your sins at the feet of Christ and may his blood renew your mind, praying for you brother 🙏

As a female and a Christian, I never considered that scripture in the way you delivered it as it relates to porn. Many don't typically relay women to porn but some of us are addicted. A guy that I've known recently shared that he's interested in me but did mention to me that he does watch porn. OMG and I've experienced the same, but I just haven't told him all about me as I have trust issues. Your message truly came about at the right time. I needed to hear this! I explained to a girlfriend of mine recently that I'm not having sex with another man until I'm married and she was in shock. If we're going to be obedient to God and his word...cut that arm, eye, leg COMPLETELY OFF! I'm at that point. No more playing around! Thanks for this message.

It has been hard like hard for years doing it on my own and now I know I can't do this on my own I have been through therapy and counseling and have had help and watched sermons etc now my brain is like putting the pieces together and god is getting my attention like an urgent it's time to overcome it and work.

[@juliusmoore2176]

My wife and I are believers. However, when it comes to intimacy and sex, it is severely lacking. It’s never a priority. What makes it worse is when I bring it to her attention, it’s always something that I’m not doing. She would say things like, “I’m tired…It’s too late….You didn’t spend enough time with me.” When I try to correct, sex sometimes occurs. However, if I had to guess, sex occurs probably once a month? In order for that to happen, I have to do all of those things, take her on dates, cook her dinner, or even watch a movie. Most importantly, she has to have a clear mind and be emotionally stable. No stress, no to-do lists, our kid has to be either sleep or with a sitter. Everything has to be perfect in order for to be open for a night of intimacy. To me, it shouldn’t be this hard.

[@YouTuber11111]

It really shouldn’t be this hard and this is coming from a wife who is experiencing what you are saying with her husband. It feels dehumanizing to have to remind your partner that “hey, can we”… Anyway I don’t have a solution, so all the best brother… hoping it works out for both of us.

I am sorry that you guys are not in phase sexually... Please go to therapy individually and as a couple... The problem is not necessarily you

[@CheerfulPhoenix]

Hey brother, it sounds like she's trying to communicate to you that she feels undervalued. One of the biggest turn-ons for women is when a man demonstrates with his words, actions, and intent (all in alignment) that he is willing to go to the ends of the earth for her - not because she told him to or hinted for him to, but because he decided to and deeply desired to. I'm not talking about "simping" or following her instructions...I'm talking about stepping up and taking initiative and getting the little things right. Does she feel as supported as she could? You are the man of the house, no? So LEAD. Your heart must be in it. Laziness is a turn off. Going through the motions is a turn off. Being distracted or disassociated from the present moment is a turn off. Women can sense disingenuousness from a mile away. Big turn off. And if she thinks you're just doing tasks (cooking dinner, taking her on dates, watching movies with her) in order to get sex in return...that's not a relationship, that's a transaction. Again, big turn off. Women can sense when something is "off" in your spirit. If you're "virtually cheating" by masturbating to porn regularly, she may not know the specifics, but she'll sense it as an "off" feeling in her intuition, which will absolutely block her arousal response. Again, big turn off. My advice for you is: avoid porn and masturbation, and practice Semen Retention for AT LEAST 7 days. You'll be amazed at how it cleanses and energizes your heart, body, and mind...your neurochemistry strengthens, Testosterone increases, and your pheromones become powerfully attractive. Once you're in a much more vital, healthy state and not trying to "extract" sex from her, or make her feel guilty for not "putting out"...watch how easy it becomes for her to initiate the intimacy! If she can sense you wanting it all the time, it repels her. Once you start focusing on other things and caring for her and your child without *needing* it so much....she'll start wanting it even more then you! Basically, your energy is off. Fix your energy with Semen Retention and zero PMO (porn, masturbation, orgasm) for at least 7 days. Two weeks even better. Do this and report back to me in 2 weeks. I'd love to hear how it goes brother much love

Intermingling the terms of “legal” and the institution of “church” is a very slippery slope, as what is “legal” is subject to the jurisdiction in which that person resides. Hypothetically, if your non-profit 501c3 church establishment is filed in the state of Virginia, what is legal is subject to the laws, statutes, and policies of the state of Virginia. I’m certain that most churches will be apprehensive to the approach of removing that 501c3 non-profit status due to financial and monetary considerations.

Sexual addiction is a hard thing to overcome. Not impossible, but it’s a real uphill battle. I am against pornography, not masturbation. Masturbation as a result of pornography feels less fulfilling than Masturbation for the sake of satisfying natural sexual desire. If either are impeding on your life, they have become your master, and we should be mastered by nothing (1 Cor 6:12). We cannot be slaves to sexuality.

[@yamomma5053]

I’m sorry comparing single people to you being married and having the ability to have sex is deff different and easier for you to beat temptations…if you’re saying it’s hard for you to only have sex wirh your wife that’s an issue.

Having a sex partner doesn’t cure what is really a self-control issue (which is really a symptom of something even deeper than that). A lot of times, getting married and having a sex partner will put a magnifying glass on the issue because if you don’t deal with it while you’re single, it DOES creep into your marriage, and then you have whatever repercussions come from that.
