Masturbation Is Good For Christians by TheArranger(m): 8:33pm On Apr 05, 2019
Leviticus 15 states

if any man's seed of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even. And every garment, and every skin, whereon is the seed of copulation, shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the even.

So you just need to take a bath and wash your clothes

Now, some Christians will be ready to quote Matthew 5:
whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
In the days before the internet, a lot of masturbation took place without pornography. Technically, it only counts as "adultery" if the woman is married. Still, a strict interpretation of Matthew 5 would apply if you're out girl-watching at the beach. And, a woman has to doll herself up, and cause men to lust after her in their hearts, if she is to have any chance of breeding. At least in the Western World, we have moved away from arranged marriages. In Saudi Arabia, where men and women are strictly separated, there is much less opportunity to look at and lust after women.

Per Matthew 19:
If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
Why deny a man his pornography, if you aren't going to sell everything that you have and give the money to the poor?

An especially popular passage for Catholics is Genesis 38:
And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. And the thing which he did displeased the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.
The issue here wasn't the wasted sperm--it was that Onan was specifically supposed to impregnate his brother's wife, and he didn't want his brother to have any heirs. If God really did have an issue with men spilling their seed willy-nilly, then God would have said so elsewhere in the Bible, particularly in the Torah, and most particularly in Leviticus 15.

Another popular passage is 1 Corinthians 7:
It is good for a man not to touch a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband...Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.
Paul was an asexual, but, still, the purpose of having a wife is to avoid fornication, not masturbation. And, married couples are supposed to keep at it continuously, only taking a mutually-agreed-upon break for fasting and prayer. Suppose the husband wants some, but the wife is indisposed? To prevent fornication, the wife might make another orifice available, or otherwise assist her husband with administering an ejaculation.

Bottom line is that if God had intended for man not to masturbate He would have made man like a T-Rex, thanks God, you didnt.

Also there is this school of thought that says, man was motivated to walk upright, to free his hands for, your guess is as good as theirs.

Does it glorify God? Does it edify you spiritually? What thoughts spring up when it comes to mind? Are those thoughts of God?

It can glorify God, it definitely can edify you spiritually, you can have thoughts of your wife come to mind and also be thanking God for this great gift from Him
Masturbation is a gift that can be misused and abused, this is something every sensible person knows.

What do you mean 'two day ban'? You've been posting actively since the time of my last response to the time of your own response!

As for your bits, you brought it up. Then again, i probably shouldn't have mentioned you since you clearly have a problem with it. Thus i tender my apologies

Masturbation must have served a good purpose then and done a good thing afterall. You can sugar coat and/or ridicule it as much as you like, calling it wanking or call it throttling the chicken, but if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, quacks like a duck and duck was helped by Funke, to get out in some other way, then it definitely is a masturbation duck. A pig is still a pig, even with lipstick on and ring in the nose. Please teacher no teach me nonsense Fela will say. Call a spade a spade and not a fork Baddiezz, say it as it is.

I remember as a christian back then wanting to get married, the church demanded a series of medical tests including sperm count. It was when I got to the hospital and was given a vial to go produce a sample that it dawned on me that I would have to masturbate to produce the sample. I was like so how do I reconcile this with the masturbation is bad teaching? I must confess my brain hook small. I just did it and kinda made myself forget about it. Fast forward a few years later, still a christian and some medical procedure required sperm sample. Again my brain hook cos there just wasn't any way to reconcile the action with the teachings. I am so glad I don't have to have brain freeze moments like this anymore, beating myself up over the things I must do because they are incompatible.
