Your problem is not masturbation your problem is you need to get married. You say you can't it will cost you too much. Matthew 16:26 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? There is more here than you just you and your girl friend, think of the example your setting for your children. Then think about you Christian testimony to the World. What does it look liike to the outside world? Can't you just hear them say "look there are two "Christians" and look their living together so all this talk of marriage is just that talk." Think about the legal aspect, what if something happens to you, your girl friend may not have any of the social support because your not married. Further if one of you get seriously injured the other may not be allowed to make any critical decisions or even be allowed visitation since you not married. No my brother your problem is not masturbation your problem is your trying to live like the world and call yourself a Christian. If you trust in God then do just that, get married and start living for God. Then let God handle the small stuff like any additional expenses. EdB |

Amen, brother Ed. May God have mercy on us all when we compromise His holiness. I know from long, sad, Hebrews-12-type experience that sin can never produce a good result. | ||||||

Truly, we often quibble over details. Of course, such quibbling has a long and illustrious tradition. Since before the time of Paul all the way up to the present, Jews gather regularly for debates over the Law. Contending over the Word of God is a blessing in many ways. (Can you imagine what it would be like if we had some philosophical tyrant dictating to us what we were to believe? Blech!) However, lest people think otherwise, what we believe in common regarding the Bible, covers far more ground than that over which we disagree. Our contentions represent struggling with the Word itself. But since the 1500's, there is far more unity than some would have us believe. |

But since the 1500's, there is far more unity than some would have us believe. Or far more division than some of us can imagine. EdB |
