So what you guys are sayin is, is that Masturbating is not bad ?
Masturbation is natural. If you don't do it, you are suppresing feelings that are in your nature. If you don't make yourself ejaculate, it will happen anyway during your sleep. Don't mortify yourself over this.
I guess i'm not the only one then.... thats a relief.
But guys, I really hate this. I am trying to be a good christian. Im 13 and I masterbate on a weekly basis. 13! THIRTEEN!
THAT MEANS I AM STILL VERY YOUNG.
I dont even know why, or how I found out how to. Or atleast I dont remember. Now that I look back, I think I may have started when I was around 7 or 8 but back then I had no idea what I was doing, Just sort of exploring I guess nothing serious. ( Im a girl ) . Now I'm a little older and its like a habbit. I hate it so much and feel so embarrased when I have to lie when my friends ask me, " So what were you doing last night?". Especially when I finish i feel like I just wanna kill my self because I feel like God could never love me again because of how bad Ive been and also because i enjoyed it and couldnt stop. I hate this. I FEEL LIKE A SICKO! Cant someone please help me? how do I stop? I am way too embarrased to tell anyone i actually know in person. SOS SOS SOS! HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you feel God gave us something that feels so good just so He could say ---- DON'T?
That's not the kind of God I believe in.

im 14 and about a year ago i started masterbating and now i cant stop. Everytime after ejackulation i feel so guilty and no motivations stop it. It goes against my religion ind i feel like i betray God. If anyone knows anyway that might helpvstop it that would be well appreciated
I feel your pain your pain, I myself have struggled with that. I went to someone in my family for help, I asked them to help me by asking me every week if I had been good or bad. I refuse to lie and would be to embarrased to admit I had done it, so everytime the urge came over me I thought about them and I didn't do it. You are correct in thinking its a sin though, in a way anyways. In Matthew 5:27-29 "Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery: [28] But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Ive never met anyone who wasnt thinking about someone when they are doing that. Good luck and remember God forgives so just keep trying, dont give up
for all those who want to stop.. i have like the same problem guys... however, mines gotten alot better... for me it happened all in basically three days... basically i went to a shurch retreat,where i realized how bad masterbation actualy was, and you know its just one of those things you just goota keep praying about.. i used to do it like 2x a day, but now its gone down to i cant even remember the least time... HELPFUL TIP DO NOT CATCH YOURSELF DOING NOTHING... always try to keep yourself busy.. and not by masterbating... hats stupid.. anyway.... just keep trying to stop, and keep your self busy with facebook or homework.
I'm not interested in arguing religion here because you have your views, I have mine, and everyone else has theirs.
However using that Matthew quote I would say there isn't a male alive who passes that test. Also in the old testament it says we have to cut off our foreskins to get into heaven but the new testament says that's not necessary. Do you suppose just maybe all those books were written by humans and some of them were just promoting their own views? There are also many other writings that were left out of the Bible as we know it today plus there are many misinterpretations in translations. One of the most blatant and often quoted is in the Ten Commandments. Thou shalt not KILL is really thou shalt not commit murder. There IS a difference, and the Bible surely recognizes it because there is certainly a lot of killing that went on in the Bible that are looked on as righteous events. There are also many contradictions in there and quotations from the Bible can be used to support nearly any opinion you happen to have.

You will get over it believe me, I mean the guilt factor.... Life is short bro. Spank it like you mean it. Or better yet. Get someone else to do it for you. Sure I had similar feelings. But unless your a super hero Monk, no one can resist (resistance is futile) . It's natures gift. Share it... within a decent situation of course... Not like George Michael in the dunnies

Its fornication, it is a sin, im not even walkin with God and know this, to the 16 year old, dont listen to these idiots (Liars) telling you "its natures gift" and "its ok", their blinded my friend, you feel convicted for a reason, we all fall short of the glory of God, dont let the enemy beat u up about it, keep praying.

The act of masturbation in it's self is not a sin but the thought of adultery is. You can pretend or fantasize about a woman being your wife but she's not. The same goes if you actually have a wife. If you fantasize about another woman being your wife it is still adultery. Further more in the Bible is say thou shall not abuse anyone including one's self. Masturbation is a form of self abuse that must be overcome. I have the same issue with masturbation. Afterwards I feel depressed and angry at myself for falling prey to it. It's very easy to fall prey to it. It will be hard to resist. Almost impossible at times. Ask God for help and he will relieve if you believe that it's possible. Anything is possible with God on your side.
Im 14 and it has been controlling my life, i tried to stop but each time i would take a step closer to God i would take 3 back because of masterbaition. its kinda like smoking you cant stop on your own, you got to take it little by little. maby in stead of 3 times a day make it 2 then 1 than maby 3 times a week then maby once a week, it takes time.
It is inportant for us kids to stay strong and united because even though they say masterbaition is healthy and good for you there is a down side. In the bible it states thatwe should all try to be like Jesus. When Jesus came to die for our sins he never masterbaited. so its ok if once and then you masterbait because he came for our sins. so when you accidentally "Jack Off", Dont give up on God ask for forgiveness no matter how many times he will forgive you, and stay strong. Read your Bible and Pray When your Bored so you avoid masterbaition. When you see something Hot call your mom and see how she is doing (Trust me it will "turn you off"). My longest is 3 Months see if you can beat it.
