Those who believe in Jesus Christ do no receive a special pass while on earth that allows them free passage without feeling the urge to sin. As humans we all in the same boat & we naturally experience the wonderfully divine urges that bring man and wife close to one another. There is a very precious reason for these sexual feelings; our urges were placed inside of us by a loving Father in Heaven.

As Christians learn from an early age, we are all brothers and sisters and while here in mortality we have been given the grand opportunity to seek out loving relationships & to bind them in a unique and powerful way through the institution of marriage. Within the bonds of matrimony we find the true purpose for those sexual urges within us - to join in unity man & women, to make their flesh as one.

Sometimes Christians learn incorrectly that sex is evil and that the bodies is a wicked thing to be abhorred. There is no truth to these ideas. However, if one believes them, it can lead them to seek out sexual expression through the means of masturbation, porn & other sexual inappropriate behaviors which lie outside the bounds the Lord has set for the proper use of the sexual drive.

Expressions like these have been forbidden by Him, not as a punishment, but as a loving teaching to prevent the unhappiness that comes from these selfish perversions of the sex drive within each one of us.

These behaviors can be sadly bring about addiction to pictures of intimacy & subvert intimacy with the powerfully fulfilling "real thing." Victor L. Brown in his profound book, Human Intimacy details, among other things, how intimacy is not equal to a mere sexual encounter.

Porn addiction in anyone is sad and can be especially frustrating to one who is trying to pattern their life after the Master. If you are a Christian & have a porn or sex addiction, know first that you are not alone. Many struggle with this temptation & many overcome it with the help of heaven.

Know too that your Father in Heaven ALWAYS loves you and is eager to hear your heartaches & to help you experience true joy through freedom from your Christian porn addiction.
