jesusjnr2020:
Have You Sinned If You Looked Lustfully At The Opposite Sex?

Yes you have according to this saying of Jesus:

"But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Matthew 5:28

But it's not a sin unto death because this saying of Jesus was intended to make you perfect as the Father is!

Matthew 5:48 (KJV)

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

That was how God made man (male an female) to be in the beginning and how man was before he fell into sin. So the purpose God sent Jesus to the Earth, was to restore things back to way they were in the beginning, when there was no lust in man's heart despite that they (male and female) were both naked.

Genesis 2:25 (KJV)

And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

So shame only came after lust entered into their hearts via sin, but that was not how God made man to be in the beginning. Hence the purpose of that saying of Jesus was to restore man back to the way God made them in the beginning when there was no lust in their hearts.

Therefore that ought to be the aspiration of every man who is a follower of Jesus; to become perfect as God is and made man to be in the beginning when there was no lust in man's heart.

This Jesus was, being a perfect illustration of the ways of the Father on Earth, hence He desired for His followers to become likewise.

So do not settle for lust even though it just that of the heart, because God desires that you be perfect as He is without lust in your heart, so that you don't give the devil any room to exploit.

With God it's possible to achieve this.

God bless.

tunapawizzy:
the question is how do you define Lust...at what point do you draw a line between lust and physical admiration

daddymummy:


Please just speak for yourself.
Not all men are cheap.
There are so many men who have had opportunity to sleep with women but they totally refused.
So just speak for yourself please.

There's a very thin line BTW d two.
Just as its a given for u to salivate at d smell of a sweet-smelling food, so is lust in d process of 'just admiring' a physically attractive woman!

Just as salivation is an involuntary process which is activated whenever u smell/see nice food, so is lust when u 'admire' an attractive woman. You have absolutely no control over it except u refuse to look at her twice/refuse to ruminate over d beauty ur eyes had just beheld in ur heart.

In d process of scoping urself that u r 'just admiring' her beauty alone, u won't know when u begin to salivate underneath (in ur pants )

How sure are u that it is not a sin that lead into death?

henrybangs44:


they are just scared cos they ain't men enough. no real man will reject pusseigh

Isokoboy101:
What about if a woman look lustful at a man,did she commit adultery?

CodeTemplar:
. . . what about a woman who looks at the opposite sex lustfully?

daddymummy:


It is not so.

In fact if you are someone that is always looking for opportunity to sleep with a lady, you will not have such opportunities because ladies will make sure you don't sleep with them.
But if you are man enough to kill your excessive desire for sex, that is when you will start having opportunities to have sex.

Imagine a lady who is always looking for sex.
You as a man will be running away from her.
But you will go after ladies who are not always looking for sex.

So is it with women.They don't give in to men who are always looking for sex.They will be running from such men.
They only give themselves to men who do not like sex too much.

Women will love you more if you can say no to sex.
They will feel safe with you.
At times it is they who will come to you for sex because you are not someone who gives in easily to sex.
They will praise you when they are discussing among themselves.
They will say you are disciplined and focused, that you are not like other men whose only reason for being alive is to have sex with women.

So the issue of someone not being man enough because he refused to give in to a woman's sexual advance is false.

Such thinking was designed by promiscuous men to justify their excessive desire for sex.
Instead of them to try and reduce their urge for sex, they were busy designing some theorems to justify their carnal and sinful lust.

Oga dont involve the devil in your business....leave alone.

Everything in Nigeria..here is Devil Devil Devil...wetin devil even do una?

henrybangs44:

young man, in my neighbourhood every girl knows I'm a fvcker, that's the same reason all of them want to taste me and it's like competition among them. they use me to test thier power and see if they can calm me down... but no pusseigh can calm me. I went to my pastor's house and nailed two of his daughters on his couch a day apart

daddymummy:


That means your own case is different.

Almost 90 percent of men are fuckers.
They are always fucking and always looking for a Bleep.

If ladies were to seek fuckers,then all men will be having ladies running after them to taste their pricks,because most men are fuckers.

But that is not true.

Most men that are very good in the act of fucking, who knows how to give pleasure to women and themselves, such men are even having difficulty in getting ladies.

Already I know a friend who can tell you everything you need to know about satisfying yourself and women during sex.

Most times,he is so sex starved to the extent of visiting prostitutes.

The thing is,in a world where something is common, such a thing will no longer have value.

The thing that has value is what is not common.

So in a world where most men love sex too much, women will not find such men desirable no matter how good they are in bed.

This is because such men are so common.

They rather love the few men that are not into so much sex.

That is why a woman who refused to sleep with a man a few seconds ago can see a boy of 13 years,call him into a house and asked him to do sexual things to her.

This always happens because the boy is still innocent and is not into sexual things.

When I was still a boy, I have had such instances.

But in your own case, maybe they come for you based on something else that is unique in your fucking which other men do not have.

henrybangs44:


to some extend you are right.
sha I don't know why they like mine.. maybe its cos I'm full of adventure and stubborn

jesusjnr2020:
Tell the devil to repent first before he would be left alone.

xxxtedyxxx:


Repent koh..born again ni...

Your god that creates the devil didnt know devil will become what he is today abi?


Devil koh satan ni....

You are your own devil.

jesusjnr2020:
I'd take that as a "No" from you, so the destruction of your master's works continues.

And there's nothing your master the devil can do to stop it!

You na toy, so you're just wasting your time.

jesusjnr2020:
Because there are sins unto death and those which are not.

And being a sin of the heart, which has not yet manifested in the physical, it shouldn't be a sin unto death.

This kind advise is deadly oo. Jesus says that it is our thought that defiles us. And what is defiled won't enter the kingdom of God. It is God that is in the best position to decide because He knows the heart. A lot of factors will be used to decide which is which.

jesusjnr2020:
No it's not. Jesus never said our thoughts defile us but thoughts which proceed from our hearts.

If you could think of killing your brother as Cain did, and you don't allow the thought to proceed from your heart, and try to carry it out, you've tried even though you're not perfect.

Those sayings are to make us perfect as God is not to send us to hell. There are rewards and benefits we lose if we don't obey them but going to heaven is not one of them.

John the brother of James said something of this nature but didn't specify. So although God is the One that decides these things, He made this knowledge available to those of His Own.

ferking:
If you really want to think critically, Jesus Christ was trying to tell you that, that law
was meaningless because it's impossible for Man to do without it.because sex is the nature of a man.that saying ;if you look at a woman and lust is a sin already showed that, that particular law, if you enforce, will destroy all men because men make their decision of a woman from the eyes.

Kobojunkie:
Lust does not have to do with mere admiration, and there is definitely not a thin line between physical admiration and lust. When in doubt, at least check your dictionary abeg!

richie240:

Siddon dia dey yarn nursery rhymes!

The person dt can't control his mouth fom salivating at the sight and smell of a savoury meal can't claim to trust his heart/genitals to do his bidding at d 'mere admiration' of a pretty woman.

Na from clap person dey enter dance!

The bible says there is a sin unto death and there is a sin not unto death. When I google for more explanation, a site says that, a sin unto death is the one somebody engage in and did not repented from till death. The fact remains that the complete meaning isn't clear. [/b]So it is wrong to assume that lust will not lead to hell.

Kobojunkie:
Inability to control one's appetite at the sight of food or women is a symptom of mental illness.

Refusing to get help for such lack of self-control is foolishness on the part of one who suffers from such a mental condition.
