I have been addicted to porn for ages. I have done everything to overcome. I have never been helped. I have been to minister, done all the things, such as repentance, promised God i will never do it again, and even made substitutes for the cross, such as notes on my computer, reminders on my door and even kept a stone in my pocket to remind me of my promise to God I will never do it again.

Christian churches – did nothing but put more guilt on me, just drove me deeper into my struggles that I became so afraid to talk about my battle. The Christian community is very condemning of sexual sins and hush hush. We model to our communities our condemnation by not talking about it.

Many ministers are ill-educated in helping people in sexual sin. They say something is wrong with you if you do this. They say you are not the Christian you need to be. Very behavioral-based.

These attitudes add to the gap between my struggle and God’s standard. I am led to believe that I am abnormal, when in fact I share a common struggle. I become afraid to share further struggles and spiral deeper.

Over 70% of Christians watch porn and 50% of ministers watch porn. (This doesn’t even include lusting.) It doesn’t stop until age sets in. Either heaven will be empty or, full of ex perverts. I believe i'm not alone in this struggle, i just want a lasting solution to porn addiction. I need help to overcome this struggle

I believe you did not understand OP. OP may have even had more intense spiritual intercourses with God but it is not working.

My advice to OP?.

Get a spouse who probably has the same issues and most importantly, she must share the same religious beliefs as you do (I hope you are not gay).

Its time you start talking about relationships.

@OP...Take this advice. The blood of Jesus washes our sins away when we give our lives to Him, but it is the Word of God that sanctifies us constantly as we journey through life. You need to get closer to His Word. Download messages of anointed ministers: I recommend Rev. & Rev. (Mrs) Olusola Areogun and Bro Gbile Akanni. Focus more on knowing God in your Christian walk and don't be distracted by your needs or wants. Let it be about trying to live holy. The Lord is your strength.

I like the tone of your thread..very honest. Not sanctimonious.

beardlessdude:
intercourses with God, how that?

Definition 1 - Intercourse is another word for communication. I use it all the time.

Guy: Ah ah..bro where you dey go so...
Me: I am going to have intercourse with the most high

Makes it sound more intimate.

The solution is clear.

Take yourself in hand, my brother.

BE FREE!!

Like me.

I had same addiction for more than 10years...trust me op, I understand you perfectly....but by the power of God I was able to overcome....
the turning point for me was when I started attending MFM....each time I go to church and listen to the man of God preach I always felt this guilt....so anytime I felt the urge...I just subscribe to my YouTube and watch the man of God preach and the urge will die down......Now I can theoritically say I'm free....

Assuming you're a believer in the Lord, here's an excerpt from my post on a similar thread:

You will never win by struggling but you will surely win by the Life of Christ manifested in you. To have His life manifested in you, begin by mechanically denying your freshly lusts (both towards women, by ceasing to look at obscenity and also all other known fleshy tendencies). Of course, in the case of lust towards women, your attempts will be met with many failures(as it has already built a stronghold in your life) before His life is manifested in you but don't let that deter you, you are in process of activating His life, in which is your victory, only if you persevere in spite of a billion failed attempts. When your attempts have reached the mark, you will see a miraculous event occur. It is the Christ in you manifesting His life, at that point you will not experience a struggle again with it, but will see His Spirit literally carrying you by His own ability, hence complete victory over that lust. I await your testimony.

Let me further expatiate. You may wonder how you could possibly be being told to stop feeding your lust by looking at obscenities and fornicating, when you just said you're struggling to. The point is you just begin to make attempts/practise, though you may fail again and again and have had many past failures. But don't get distracted by your failures (God is not condemning you but cheering you on, as unbelievable as it may sound, Rom8:34), just keep practising denying the flesh. Slowly but surely, you'll soon start having little successes here and there. That's not your endpoint, however. Your endpoint is to release the power of Christ in your spirit, which will completely terminate the habit as well as other manifestations of flesh you're not focusing on yet, and that in just an instant of time. So keep practising saying no to gratification, even though you fail many times alongside(you're not trying to prove yourself to God, we're all messed up in ourselves and He knows that and is not surprised you're struggling with sin. This is just about activating the resident power of Christ He put in you, Eph1:19-20, Eph3:20). When you reach a point (tipping point) in your self denial quantity of attempts, the power of Christ will be released from your spirit, then that will be the permanent end of that struggle and also the beginning of a new life in the Spirit with God-given vision for your life.
To make this even faster, don't get so focused on only this lust, but look at every lust and attitude in your life that God does not want and practise saying no to them, so that your self-denial attempts will reach tipping point even faster. But don't get too impatient, expecting the miracle in a sec. It has taken years to build this habit and will take some time to get to the tipping point.
Note: I've had 100% testimonies helping people with this formula. It never fails because it is the true word of God. (Titus2: 11-12)
Questions are welcome

Haven't you read?
"There is a way that seemeth right unto man but the end thereof is death".
All your systems and strategies that you crafted up there will never work, I did far more than you.
When Jesus said "It is finished", the work He finished also covers the freedom from sin. He said " Come to me , o ye that are heavy laden.....".
You didn't run to him, you didn't embrace his finished works, you are literally crafting a path designed by your own mind, It is literally never going to work.

ON LUST AND TEMPTATION
James 1:14-15
"But each person is lured and enticed by his own desire.
Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death."
You are addicted to porn because you derive pleasure from porn. You can't stop it because you desire it. Whenever you promise yourself that you won't go back to it, another part of you always ask "So, won't I do this thing again till I die? Haaa, that would be hard o, I think I might do it just one last time and forget about it".
Sometimes, you will wish you can wake up with an amnesia and just erase every memory about porn and whatever led to it.
Let me tell you one thing from experience; When you still treat porn like an abstinence, you will never be free from it.
What I mean is, when you have this subconscious mindset of " Let me just stay away from this till I die. In heaven, I will be totally free" you are still whining yourself because if you know the ways of the flesh, you will know this mindset will never work.
Let me ask you a few question and you will automatically see a scripturally backed solution by yourself.
1.Have you ever delighted in watching gay porn?
2. Can you get aroused if a man were to seduce you?
3. If you have sisters, even if they were to UnCloth before you, you will never be seduced. True or false?
If you are a straight guy, your answers should show you something evident. You can only be addicted to what you desire. You are addicted to porn because you desire the pleasure from porn and the love to perform the staged act thereof.
That is why James said;
"Each person is tempted/enticed by his desire".
Your desire is the problem here. If the desire to watch, imagine or even think porn dies, the addiction dies automatically.
So how do you kill your desire?
Answer: You can never desire what you HATE. We hate even the sight of our poop that is why no sane person will eat poop. There is no desire to eat poop not even the slightest imagination and that is because we all hate the sight of it talkless of the idea of eating it.
Summary: Let the spirit of God help you hate porn and you will never desire it again till you die. Even if, you mistakenly jam each other; It is either you run or porn itself run. You can never attract each other again because you hate each other.
That was what Solomon in the splendor of wisdom revealed;
" The fear of the LORD is the hatred of EVIL."
This is where THE TRUTH is.
PS: I will readily give you my number if you wanna go private. Ask any question you don't understand from what I wrote.

I wonder how you got your statistics did you carry out a survey yourself?
For you to say that 70 % of Christians watch porn and ministers 50%, you either have taken a comprehensive survey your self or you got this from a source which you didn't acknowledge. Even if you got it from a source, I would like to study their methodology on how they arrive at these figures, because as a christain, i cant remember anybody coming to me for a survey to that effect. Because to conclude, you must have done a word wide based investigation taking a representative sample from each christain nationality, not to mention you also need an experimental design too and lots more before concluding that nearly every christain watches porn
