Subject: is masterbation a sin explain thxs |
Bible Note: Christlifer2001 A nocturnal emmission is a normal body function. Mastubation is an act of the mind and will carried out by the body. It is an intentionally sterile act that is a cheap counterfeit of somethat that is meant to be an outward expression of lifegiving love and affection to another. It is about narcissitic love of self like every other sin sexual or non sexual. Emmaus I recently heard an interesting comment from a priest about confession of sins of impurity by men. He said that most men would rather confess to adultery with four women than confess to masturbation because they were more ashamed of the later. And every man that I spoke to about this comment afterward agreed that he was proabably right. At least in adultery or fornication you are relating in some manner to another person even if in sin. In the solitary act you relate to nothing and no one but yourself and your lustful imagination. Emmaus |
