Turkish, I have read everyone's response on this thread and I believe in my heart that even though scripture does not convey on this issue specifically there is an answer. First our flesh body is what we are stuck with. What does sin mean, doesn't the word Christian is to be Christ like? Our goal is always be Christ like. Here are some meanings for the word (sin) in the Greek in the NT. NT:264 hamartano (ham-ar-tan'-o); perhaps from NT:1 (as a negative particle) and the base of NT:3313; properly, to miss the mark (and so not share in the prize), i.e. (figuratively) to err, especially (morally) to sin: KJV - for your faults, offend, sin, trespass. NT:265 hamartema (ham-ar'-tay-mah); from NT:264; a sin (properly concrete): KJV - sin. NT:266 hamartia (ham-ar-tee'-ah); from NT:264; a sin (properly abstract): KJV - offence, sin (-ful). This is vague in the fact that it does not specify regarding masturbation. But bear in mind that I think everyone will agree that God has given us common sense in this life. In that flesh and blood will not inherit the kingdom of God. 1 Cor 15:50 50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption. KJV Corruption will not inherit incorruption. Meaning our flesh and blood is corrupt. And if we are all changed in a twinkling of a eye at the last trump, and corruptible becomes incorruptible. 1 Cor 15:52-53 52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. 53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. KJV What was Paul talking about in 1 Cor.? Yes we have this sexual desire, and (common sense) will tell you that, isn't it better to masturbate than to go out somewhere and find someone or if you are married to find someone else to relieve yourselves. 1 Cor 7:9 9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. KJV NT:4448 ( burn) puroo (poo-ro'-o); from NT:4442; to kindle, i.e. (passively) to be ignited, glow (literally), be refined (by implication), or (figuratively) to be inflamed (with anger, grief, lust): KJV - burn, fiery, be on fire, try. NT:4442 pur (poor); a primary word; "fire" (literally or figuratively, specifically, lightning): KJV - fiery, fire. I believe wholeheartedly that masturbation is not sin and that you men on this forum know that if this does not take place from time to time,then there is a problem, and you know what I mean. Let's get real here! SERENETIME |
