masterbating is a sin?

It's Not A Sin To Spill Your Seed, That Thought Comes From Gen 38:9 And The Reason Iban Was Killed Was Not Cause He Spilled His Seed But But Cause He Didn't Fulfill God's Law Of Marrying Your Your Widow Sister In-law So That She Can Have A Son to Take Your Dead Brothers Estate But Maturbastion Is A Sin If You're Lusting After Something Or Someone Or Doing Sexually Inmoral Things.

PLEASE STOP!!!!!! Pray and beg to God to stop. It will destroy your life. YOU WILL BE DOING THIS your all life.
You will make very poor choices. Most likely with women. You will think with penis and not with your brian. Trust me on this. DON"T MAKE this a lifetime habit. I regret it that this happened to me. I am a very grown man and I Still have this problem. I made bad mistakes because of this. The good news is I am fixing it now. YOU CAN TOO! Go to God and ask for His help and forgiveness. It is a addictive behavior like drugs.

Weird i just search this sh*t for fun and to see wet yall say. Well now ill no not to have sex intul 18

My quick answer....Not a sin, the Bible is very specific when it comes to calling out sin as Rom 7:7 says. but the THOUGHTS attached to masturbating can be VERY sinful. I would ask God to help you find a balance and keep your mind pure before Him.

...and if one was to masturbate, keep your THOUGHTS pure...and yes, it is possible, even though this world makes out as if sex is dirty and wrong, but sex was designed to be beautiful, pure and holy (AND ONLY IN THE SAFETY OF MARRIAGE because outside marriage, now that is a sin too and God says to only have it in marriage to protect us like all His commands are out of love and protection so keep your thought in that direction, not crazy fantasies involving all sorts of illicit things, I think that's where the wheels come off for most, because the seed of sin is the thought,..."Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death." James 1:15

I haven't read every response, so I'm not sure if someone has already covered what I'm saying

I haven't ever seen a verse in the Bible regarding this issue directly, but I don't think the problem lies in the act itself, but rather the role the mind has to play. For instance, the fantasies, the inappropriate thoughts about someone who does not belong to you.

What the Bible does mention is a heart after God, practicing self control and thinking on good thoughts and in a general having a self controlled mind.

I think if he is feeling guilt, approach God directly and ask for His help. God says. "that whoever seeks me with their whole heart, will find ME."

I think it is a life long journey of self control toward being about God's business and not our own wants and desires...read this article and hope it helps, just going to copy and paste the section relevant to this and also the link if you have the time for the full article.

"....Masturbation is not specifically mentioned in the Bible. Any interpretation that it is a sin must be an application of some other Scripture regarding sexuality. Some of these certainly could imply that masturbation under some circumstances could be sin. For instance, if masturbation is used as a way to deny sex to your spouse, that would be destructive and go against the 1 Corinthians 7 principles Paul describes. If masturbation is accompanied by fantasies of extra-marital relations, it may fit with Jesus' definition of lust in Matthew 5.......

Masturbation alone can be useful when a couple is not able to be together for sex. This may be the case in many different situations (travel, fatigue, schedule problems, health considerations, even a time of spiritual "fasting" by one mate). I do not see individual masturbation as sinful in these situations as long as the associated thought life honors the marriage vows....."
