The question: Is viewing porn and having ‘sex with self’ adultery?
Read below for God’s answer. This is taken from the LIFE IN THE SPIRIT STUDY BIBLE, article “The Acts of the Sinful Nature and the Fruit of the Spirit” pages 1852-1853. If you do any of these sins or such like, you shall not have a part in the kingdom of God!
I am posting this picture on the definition of adultery (GK-porneia): “Sexual activity or intercourse outside the marriage union. The word pornography comes from the root porneia – taking pleasure in pornographic pictures, films or writings.”
Having sex with self while participating in porn use (including porn images in the brain) is committing adultery in God’s sight. It is impossible to glorify God in your body and spirit (1Cor. 6: 18-20) while using porn for sexual release.
In the near future Lord willing, I will be teaching a seminar on DVD regarding “Porn Addiction Recovery.” Porn addiction is invading the hearts of people in the church – 50 – 76% of men and leaders who attend church every Sunday use porn.
I’ve been counseling porn addiction recovery for 25 years – now a Certified Sexual Addiction Recovery Facilitator by aacc.net.
I provide counseling nationwide by phone/Skype on general issues of healing for damaged emotions, marital issues, etc. (636) 448-0121.
I love teaching God’s anointed Word for churches/conferences for spiritual, emotional and relational growth.
