Does god consider masturbation a sin?!


Question: Does god consider masturbation a sin!?
Answers:
YES IT IS A SIN TO MASTURBATE!!!! The Bible said so and yes God is real and he looks at as sinWww@Answer-Health@Com

Many people tend to think the bible talks about masturbation being a sin, however, if you actually look into the versus people mention when trying to prove this you will find they are misinterpreting them!. When God struck down that one guy for "masturbating" somewhere in the OT he was not killed for masturbating but for not following God's orders to impregnate the woman (read pretty much any commentary)!.

Most Christian's realize it is not a sin, however it can be considered sinful if you use things like porn to achieve it!. Some scholars even go as far as to say it may have been given to us as a gift to avoid sexual temptation before marriage!.

The Catholic church tends to make it out as a sin, but they make everything out to be a sin!.!.!.

Also, some people will tell you sex for any reason other than reproduction is a sin!.!.!. read the bible, it is not!. Once married you are to enjoy sex with your partner as much as possible, it is a gift, not something to be shunned!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

This is an excellent question!

Short answer - NO!.

One reason it was thought to be was the Old Test!. Law!. The act was seen as "unholy" and needed a Jewish Sacrifice to 'atone' for it!. Even wet dreams - nocturnal semen discharge was 'unholy' - and God created our bodies to do just that!.!.!.!. so !.!.!.!.!. why!? !.!.!.!. - it was to show just how useless it was to try to be 'holy' in God's sight on our own power!. Nothing more!.

Second Reason:
Men 'back then' got married at ages 14 - 16 yrs old!. As soon as they were a 'man', they were married!.
We do not marry that early now, nor should we!. Life and times have changed over the centuries!. Kids today are not as 'ready' and family units are not what they were then!.

I wouldn't worry about it being "sin" !.!.!. God created our bodies and He totally understands them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
