I was trying to reconcile what the sin of Lust was really warning against because completely squelching certain desires is frankly impossible, so I knew I was missing something. The coveting that's going to lead to immoral acts is definitely an important point and non-obviously aspect. Also I think if you aren't very careful and don't direct and shape desire into something productive for lack of a better word it can unfortunately go out of control and leave you too vulnerable to temptation. It's so viscerally true with something like sex, but the other deadly sins can get out of hand like that if you don't manage and temper yourself.

Lust is so easy to resist if you love your brother, all that means is not desiring his wife or his woman, if she has a husband or a man, leave her alone, respect him or her, find your own, there's really no excuse for desiring what belongs to another, get your own, no sin in that if she or he is single

Pray for me Brother....I was addicted to masturbation...it affected almost 90% of my life....confidence..guilt feeling..nervousness and more...but I gave it up on the 1st May,2020 by Gods grace...so its 25days now. I have deleted Instagram...other social platforms which would lead me to lust.... The problem is when I go out and see those women who I desired....its hard to resist and sometimes run away from the place...how to 100% overcome it? Pls help

[@TSIRHCSEVAS]

Pray that God would lead you out of temptations every day. I had the same problem and still fighting every day. Fasting and prayer delivers you from the demon of lust. We need to work with the temptation in the first place. If the tempter has hooked you he has won his battle with you/us. We need to be small

[@restoredbytruth4729]

Appreciate you taking the time to go further in depth to what Jesus most likely meant by this. it's a fine line sometimes but you can definitely tell the difference between those feelings because I've had both those in the past. so admiring a woman in a video that is not distasteful or vulgur seems a lot more innocent. if one were to be around the same woman wearing a bathing suit in person that has a husband, then obviously that situation would be different. what would you say about admiring a woman in a video that is not phornography if you are single? I feel like there's a lot more temptation with dating and having sex out of marriage at this point in my life. I'm focusing on myself in order to increase my faith right now so I'm avoiding dating or meeting women until I am strong enough to resist the Temptations, along with other reasons related to my life circumstances. Is this wrong with do you think?

“The modern use of Matthew 5:28 is to regard human beings as robots who are presumed to be able switch off certain aspects of their bodies and minds at will, and reactivate them at the moment they utter the words “I do.” Arguments that ‘lust’ objectifies women and treats them as sex objects abound in their condemnation of the most essential of all human instincts, leaving an endless trail of trauma, guilt and hadephobia in their wake. In reality, they are using a passage which endorses the worst forms of female objectification, misogyny and loveless slavery; their erroneous arguments enabled through religion’s ultimate foundations: the lust for power and control-and the blatant refusal to think.” -Tanya Simmonds

[@shamalambadingdongboi6442]

So if I think of sexual things but don’t feel sexual at all is it still a sin? What if i think of nobody but me? What if I think of two other people, and not myself? Is it bad to think about what will happen on my wedding night?

Already commented this, but I’ll copy and paste it here lol This is what I think lusting is for the modern age, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS MY OPINION, if you disagree with me, then I believe you can by the freedom rights of god I think lusting depends on how you use it. Let me explain: Let’s say that you are an incident person and you see a cute girl in a book. You ‘do’ it and move on your day, is that lusting? I don’t believe so. Then, let’s say that a different person does the same thing except this time stalks, lie, and harm anything to get that girl and do bad stuff for her, that is what I believe is lusting

[@TimothyChapman]

I don't like how you implied that you were reading into the text commands that didn't exist in the first half of the video. What I do like is the fact that you correctly defined lust. You have no clue how hard it is to find someone who correctly defines this term. But what you did not make clear (or maybe I missed it) is the fact that coveting a woman who is not married would not be a violation of the 10th Commandment. And that a man coveting an unmarried woman is how marriage happens.

[@joshuamartinpryce8424]

[@alexanderpantin5013]

so what do you do if the woman is single and you are too? How do you differentiate lust from normal desire, if any, then?

[@glowheat4469]

[@ozziepaul5449]

[@mauricegoyette7817]

I don't know about Matthew, but in the case of John, I think he was opposed to the desire in itself. The second century's traduction of the Bible in latin talks about Concupiscentia, which became Concupiscence in French (my language), and can be translated as an appeal to the things of this world. So in John's writings, I think the tentation in itself is one of the things he criticize. I'm saying this because the Jesus of John really touched my heart, and I want to know if it's really possible to follow his teachings.

[@GhostOfMuaddib]

I have a question, hypothetically speaking if I come across an image of a female with her boobs out but i don’t feel any sexual desire or lust at all, is it a sin? Surprisingly I seriously don’t feel lust any lust (I’ve been a Christian my whole life which explains why) but if I was to look at it for maybe a minute plus but there’s no lust, no sexual desire or temptation, is it a sin?

[@GhostOfMuaddib]

Also may I add I don’t really see the boobs as "attractive" most the time.

[@j1_motion906]

I stumbled across porn and looked through it with no desire either, i was just curious to the type of content that was on social media platforms. I would say it were a sin though because you out yourself into a position of temptation, i did lust more towards my girlfriend during this time so i did. Commit a sin of lust, do not worry but i suggest not viewing it with the purpose of lusting over the women there, as long as you dont do that, you should be fine but i wouldn't view it frequently because it puts you into a position of temptation

Is physical attraction thinking of yourself having sex with a person?

[@brandoncurbow4752]

Is it wrong to see a beautiful woman and wish that my wife would get in shape like that? Sometimes I feel like I wouldn't be so attracted to other women if my wife had stayed in shape after we had our son. She used to be good looking but now makes excuses for having gained wait. I always thought I was being covetous because I wanted my wife to look like other attractive women. Maybe satan is just attacking my mind and telling me that I'm being covetous when really I just want my wife to take better care of herself and stop making excuses for gaining weight. I felt like she was causing me to sin by admiring the way other women look and wishing that she looked that way again.

[@LocalBibleDealer]

Based on my understanding of lust, wanting your wife to be in better shape is not lustful. What is lustful is thinking or acting in a way that makes you want those woman you see in better shape to replace your wife. It is lustful when you start thinking that you want those other woman for sexual or non-sexual reasons. When you are married your body is your wifes and your wifes body is yours as in you are both one flesh. If you wish for her to be in better shape then that is something she must do since you two are one flesh. Of course you are NOT to do or cause sin to your wife just because you are one flesh. All that I have said also applies the same for wife to husband. Give thanks to God, not me, if this information helps in anyway. God bless you Brandon Curbow. :)

These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: 17 A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, 18 A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, 19 A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren. Pay close attention to verse 18, then think of what the pastor says about thinking of ways to get what belongs to another man. Thank you Holy Spirit.
