    Is Masturbation for women a sin
    I am a youth pastor that has found this subject in the need of good sound biblical advice. Is masturbation without the help or aid of pornography or other aids a sin. The way its been explained to me is its just done for the release and the feeling. No lusting after someone else just the need to feel good. Any help would be appreciated

    I'm finding it hard to think of masturbating without anything [porn OR fantasies played in my head].

    If you've found a way to enjoy yourself without that then you've conquered another way to masturbate.

    Masturbating isn't a sin-- it's what you do in order to get to that point; porn, fantasies, etc. The bible says it's "unholy" or "impure" to see other people's naked bodies, lusting and coveting.

    I guess I would have to rely on Ro 13;13
    "let us behave properly as in the day, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in strife and jealously. 14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ and make no provisions for the flesh in regard to it's lusts."
    And 1Th 4:3
    "For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is that you abstain from sexual immorality.
    To me these tow passages are pretty clear as to what people must do.

    Oh lordy.. you hippies :rolleyes:

    A youth pastor is kind of like a pastor for teens and younger kids-- kind of like a Sunday school teacher. Almost like a guide for teens that gives guidance with modern methods of teaching "the word of God".

    In the Catholic Church a youth pastor is called a CCD (Confraternity of Christian Doctrine) and/or CYC (Catholic Youth Conference) Teacher and I was taught both for years.
    CCD is for grade school age and CYC is for teens.
    Yes masturbation is a sin.

    Arcura, why is it a sin?

    Without lusting, coveting or looking at another's nakedness would it still be a sin?

    Or is it the whole "spilling your seed onto the ground" --where "wasting" yourself was frowned upon in the Old Testament.

    mudweiser,
    It is sin because it is self sexual abuse. It causes a climax without a married partner; it's like casting your seed on the floor which the bible forbids.

    I think you will find the answer in post number 4 in which I quoted two passages.

    The girls that are telling you they don't look at porn or fantasize are lying to themselves to justify what they want to do. Even pg-13 movies are filled with beautiful bodies entertwined and just a few years ago that was considered porn. They are de-humanizing other people and it makes it easier to treat people worse because you gets in the habit of putting yourself and your wants and your pleasure ahead of what God wants.

    A youth pastor is a pastor for the youth. In other words, I preach and teach to the youth of our church. As far as the bad spelling... well I lived in and went to school in Oklahoma so that might explain some. Plus I can't type to save my life.

    Masturbation is a SIN, it is a form of fornication. The bible states fornicators will not see the kingdom of GOD, they will have their Place in the lake of fire HELL!

    The body says to keep our bodies pure and holy because it is not ours it is the Lords. Is masturbating something youwould want God to see you do? If not then tell them to pray on it and get then some type of help. We are to stay pure and that is FAR from pure
