Post 21: BACK TO THE BIBLE

Post Number 21: Back to The Bible

Back to the bible is a call that draws attention to the fact that the body of Christ in the modern days has deviated from the standards set by the apostles, hence the need to return to bible standards of Christianity. It is a call to return to the revival of apostolic signs, Holy Ghost fireworks, miracles and unlimited demonstration of the power of God to deliver to the uttermost. 

It is a call to return to teaching absolute holiness within and without as a pre-requisite for heaven. It is a call for the modern day Church to conform to the standards of the Early Church founded by the apostles. It is a call to return from modern church to model church. The early church of the apostles was the model.

Back to the Bible is a call for a return to spiritual worship which is the power of God to achieve the following:

1)    To produce in men a new birth which is a spiritual process also known as a regenerative revival that redeems a lost soul from spiritual death to a new life in Christ Jesus (John 3:3) (1 Peter 1:2

e    To establish people in the faith (Romans 16:25)

3)    For spiritual growth (1 Peter 2:2)

4)    To cleanse the church (Ephesians 5:26)

5)    Peace and protection (Ephesians 6:17)

6)    To prepare a people to be partakers of the Kingdom of God

We see in the modern day Church an increase in the number of church ministries without a corresponding increase in the number of regenerative Christians whose lives have been transformed. There are more of sinners known as church sinners than saints in the congregation. Many are in the church but are not in Christ therefore are not new creatures (2 Corinthians 5:17).

The practices of the modern day Church have been modernized and are not consistent with Scripture. The standard set by the apostles was the doctrine of apostolic teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread and prayers (Acts 2:42).

 The early church was a glorious church that performed signs and wonders empowered by the Holy Spirit; were together in one accord, having all things common; breaking bread from house to house and eating their meat with singleness of heart; praising God and having favor with all the people.

 

In the early church, the Word of God was preached to the people on daily basis and the Lord added to the church those that should be saved, who heard the Word and were obedient to it (Acts 2:42-47). It was a balanced church which foundation was built on the Word which produced Power, Purity and Prosperity. In the modern day church, prosperity is available but power and purity are scarce.

The modern day churches pursue signs, miracles and wonders without the Word as their foundation. Any church built on miracles will fade away but any church built on the Word will abide forever because the Word of God abides forever (Isaiah 40:8).

The teaching standard of the apostles taught the nations ALL things in the Word that Christ commanded. No person had the right or the authority to qualify or limit, add or subtract from any of the original teaching and practices lay down by Christ. Every word of the Bible was taught and practiced by all Christians.

The fellowship doctrine of the apostles is based on fellowship with God the father and His Son Jesus Christ in who are light and in whom there is no darkness (John 8:12). It is a fellowship that did not mingle with the world of iniquity and darkness because God is Light (1 John1:1-7) and in Him is no unrighteousness.

The modern day church has imported the darkness in the world into the church to the extent that it is becoming increasingly difficult to differentiate between a Christian coming to church and a disco dancer in the world. The most glaring evidence of worldliness in the modern day church lies in immoral dressing.

 The early church focused on preaching a regenerative revival that brought sinners to the altar in tears to accept Christ. The regenerative revival in the early church was a revival that translates a sinner from death to life which is Jesus basic mission. The sermons preached from the pulpit in the early church were as flames of fire that rend the hearts of the hearers (Acts 2:37) to run to Christ. 

 

The modern day church focuses more on a materialistic revival in which the physical and financial wellbeing of the flock takes precedence over their spiritual wellbeing. However, the spiritual wellbeing of the flock should be the basic occupation of a true Minister of the Gospel (Matthew 6:33).

The modern day church attracts unbelievers through messages that have been watered down; that meets the needs of their body rather than their soul; that promises happiness on earth, rather than righteousness that leads to eternity; that makes sinners comfortable in sin and iniquity yet claim to be saved.

The modern church consists of more professing believers than real practicing Christians whose profession and practice do not align (Matthew 7:21) (Proverbs 11:4). Proverbs 30:12 says,

‘There is a generation that is pure in their eyes, and yet is not washed from their filthiness’

Many modern day churches do not teach ALL things that Christ commanded but teach selected topics that the people want to hear contrary to what God wants them to hear (Isaiah 58:1). It teaches fanciful and misleading messages to a congregation whose lives are bound in sin rather than teach about sin and how to be delivered from sin which is Jesus basic mission (Matthew 1:21) (Galatians 1:8).

Another principle in the early church that the modern church has neglected is making disciples of men. A disciple prefers his relationship with his Master above all others (Luke 14:26). He bears his Cross and follows His Master continually and not for a while. A disciple forsakes all that he has whenever required for the Kingdom of His Master (Luke 14:27, 33).

Discipleship is to perfect and release a convert who has become a disciple into the ministry (2 Timothy 2:2). Many modern day churches keep members in their fold for many years without discipling them to become useful vessels for the Lord’s use in ministry especially in evangelism which every believer is called to do (Matthew 28:18-20).

In the modern day church, unlike the early church, there is much moral decadence and lawlessness. There is powerlessness unlike the power demonstrated by Paul and Silas in Macedonia who turned the world upside down in Acts Chapter 17.

The average modern day Christian cannot hear directly from the Lord and runs after pastors and prophets to do the hearing for him. There is a shift from focusing on Christ to focusing on men which leads many men to worshiping the creature more than the creator (Romans 1:25).

Pastors of many modern day churches do things to glorify themselves and not to glorify Jesus Christ. They draw attention to themselves rather than to Jesus Christ who is the founder of the church and who has a name above all names (Philippians 2:9-10).

A typical example is where a pastor says, ‘meet me on the mountain on Sunday for solutions to your problems’, which draws attention to self as the solution provider and not to Jesus. Many modern day pastors display their pictures on their church signage to draw attention to themselves. These actions constitute vain glory which is a sin damnable in hell.

The average modern day Christian does not live his Christian life in the right manner. He does not study the Word of God on his own and does not attend bible study lessons and Sunday school classes in church.  In many modern day churches, the majority of the members and leaders do not attend bible classes and house fellowship. They cannot give their time to God but want to receive.

 He is also a prayerless Christian who does not pray habitually but prays only in church to ask from a God whom he has refused to get intimate with through His Word (John 8:31). He does not want to pay the price to know God and His righteousness but wants the blessings and the promises in the Word fulfilled in his life contrary to Matthew 6:33.

 

The modern day church has in its fold too many baby Christians who fail to grow, who spend 10 to 20 years in church but whose lives are not transformed to spiritual giants, and are enslaved to their pastors and prophets. Many modern day churches teach messages that entertain their members rather than convict sinners for repentance.

Many modern day churches teach that one can follow Christ without carrying a cross i.e. that one can serve Christ without dying for him; without suffering persecution and without forsaking anything contrary to Luke 14:26-33.

Many modern day church pastors have become ‘gods’ in their assemblies where their members build a relationship with them rather than build a relationship with God. Therefore, the average modern day Christian is an idol worshiper who worships his ‘church’ and ‘pastor’ above God. Denominational ism is self-righteousness which is damnable in hell fire.

          

The offices of Pastor and Prophet have been so bastardized by con artists in ministry that many well-meaning Christians do not wish to associate with them. It is becoming more of a stigma to be addressed or identified as a Pastor or Prophet in these modern days.

Therefore, the modern day church is a modernized church that lacks fire and power unlike the early church which operated in One Accord and brought down fire from heaven (Acts 2:1-4).  It is the Pentecostal fire that comes through tarrying in God’s presence that makes soul winning to be effective.

 The TV & radio evangelism noises of many modern day churches, their financial/prosperity bait used to attract sinners, their attractive buildings and beautiful pulpits and other gimmicks without a genuine and practical devotion and dedication to God can bring sinners into the church auditorium but cannot win their souls into the Jesus Kingdom. If souls are won, usually they do not abide (John 15:16). Therefore, the modern day church is a master at creating backsliders from inception of their soul winning campaigns.

 

The modern day church pulls huge crowds to its crusades, but is a noisy church that lacks the power to make a positive change in the society. Many modern day pastors teach superficial religion and messages based on human wisdom mainly for amusement and a temporary emotional experience but certainly not a genuine encounter with the Holy Spirit. Where the church ministry does not have the level of spirituality required to convey God’s mind to the congregation, then it is all a ruse and noise making! (1 Corinthians 2:4-5).

Therefore, Back to the Bible is a call for a restorative revival (Hosea 6:1-2) to cure the worldly and backslidden condition of the congregation in the modern day church. It is time to revive the church as in the days of Ezra in Nehemiah chapter 8 where the Word of God was preached to the people distinctly and interpreted in the way it was written and meant to be understood, not giving a personal interpretation.

Back to the bible is a call for a restorative revival that will create an awakened people whose transformed lives will preach the gospel to others as in Antioch (Acts 11:26) where the disciples were first called Christians. An awakened church can only preach the gospel to a dying and lost world through its own awakened people whose lives have been transformed.

 Transformation of lives from darkness to light is the basic mission of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Any gospel that cannot transform lives from sinfulness to the righteousness that is of God (Deuteronomy 6:18) is not of God and is another gospel and a false gospel (Galatians 1:8-9). The gospel of Jesus is the power of God unto salvation (Romans 1:16).

 

Back to the Bible is a call to church leaders to return to the apostolic standards and practices that nurture their members with the right teachings to mature them for ministry and to move out of the church to work for the Lord.

Further, back to the bible is a call to you and me as individuals who will give account before Christ (2 Corinthians 5:10) to return to bible day Christianity. You and me as individuals constitute the church of Christ and not the buildings. The church buildings are merely the geographical address of the body of Christ in a locality. Back to the bible implies that you and me return from following the multitude doing evil (Exodus 23:2) and start doing what is right in the sight of the Lord (Deuteronomy 6:18).

In conclusion, Back to the Bible is a call to you to live a transformed life that preaches the gospel to unbelievers. Many want to see the power of the gospel at work in terms of holiness and righteousness in the lives of men that will make them believe that salvation is real. It happened at Antioch (Acts 11:26) where the disciples were first called Christians when the people in the city saw that their lifestyle and behavior were not different from the life of Jesus whom they preached.

Is your Christian lifestyle a reproach to the gospel? Return to the bible day apostolic standard.

Prayer: O God my Father, revive your church starting with me.

Are Masturbation, Menstrual Sex and Oral Sex Justified Among Christians? (2)

Post 20:
Are Masturbation, Menstrual Sex and Oral Sex Justified Among Christians? (2)

Sexual perverse activities are among the reasons why God cast out those pagans from the Promised Land and transferred it to the Israelites. God warned the Israelites that if they committed the same atrocities, He would throw them out as well (Leviticus 18:24-30).

It is a perversion when the natural use of an item is converted into an unnatural use. In the sexual arena, it is a sexual perversion when the natural use of a sexual organ is converted into an unnatural use. What is the male penis doing in the anus of a man or woman known as anal sex? What is the penis doing in the mouth of a woman known as fellatio or oral sex? what is a candle doing in the vagina known as female masturbation? These are unnatural and ungodly processes known as sexual perverse activities.

It is highly atrocious and scandalous for Christian brethren to come out openly on social media to declare that they indulge in masturbation, menstrual sex and oral sex and be proud of it. This is the result of apostasy (Romans 1:24-32) which is one of the signs and spirits of the end times.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 say,

‘For a time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables’.

1Timothy 4:1 says,

‘…that in the latter times, some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils’

In this Last Day, churches and ministries are springing up everywhere in every nook and cranny but the number of regenerated Christians is decreasing. Many are Christians in the church but are not in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Many are in the church but are not growing in grace. They worship God with their lips but their hearts are far away from Him (Isaiah 29:13).

The problem of the modern day church lies in her Ministers. Many ministers are preaching their own messages for public acclaim which is for vainglory rather than preach to the congregation what God wants them to hear.

Isaiah 58:1 says,

‘Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show my people their transgression and the house of Jacob their sins’.

 The basic reason why Jesus came and died for men was to save fallen man from his sins (Matthew 1:21). Therefore the salvation of the soul of man and deliverance from the yoke of sin is the basic essence of the gospel of salvation and the basic message to be preached by Ministers of the Gospel to their congregation.

 

Unfortunately, many ministers are preaching misleading messages and fanciful topics to a congregation whose lives are bound in sin. The spiritual growth and development of the flock should be the basic occupation of a true Minister of the Gospel who has not derailed from his calling.

Many churches and ministries are busy preaching and teaching about prosperity in terms of money, riches and success on earth. They are focusing on a materialistic revival rather than a regenerative revival that translates souls from darkness to light and from death to life. This runs contrary to Matthew 6:33.

God is looking for those whose hearts are perfect toward Him (2 Chronicles 16:9). The heart of man is the factory of his life where his thoughts are processed either for good or evil. Since the sad fall of man in Eden, his heart became evil and desperately wicked (Mark 7:21-23).

The state of the heart of a man determines the fruit that manifests outwardly. There is a linkage between our hearts and behavior. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. Matthew 7:16-20 says that a tree is known by its fruit. A corrupt tree cannot bring forth good fruit just as a good tree cannot produce evil fruit. If the heart is corrupted and polluted, it is certain that the outward manifestation will show in corrupt conversation, immoral dressing and the like.

Therefore, indulgence in masturbation, menstrual sex, oral sex and the other sexual perverse activities is evidence of a corrupt and polluted heart that has strayed far away from the Lord. A Christian is called unto holiness within and without because the God in heaven is holy (Leviticus 11:44) (Leviticus 20:26) (Hebrews 12:14).

Leviticus 20:26 says,

‘And you shall be holy unto me: for I the lord am holy, and have severed you from other people, that you should be mine’

A Christian is a called out personality, called out of the world to be a saint and a light to the world (Matthew 5:14) (1 Corinthians 1:1-3). Geographically, he is resident in the world but spiritually, he is not of the world. He does not allow the corrupted ways of the world to contaminate him.

2 Corinthians 6:17 says,

‘Wherefore, come out from among them, and be you separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you’.

Masturbation, menstrual sex, oral sex and the other sexual perversions are unclean things and the ways of the world. The opinion that because one is married, he is at liberty to engage in indecent sexual practices is a doctrine of demons to derail people to hell.

Marriage is to be conducted in holiness; therefore indecent sexual practices are not allowed in marriage. 

Why should a Christian husband, in whom the Spirit of God is, be licking the vagina of his wife in the name of deriving sexual pleasure? It is a detestable, vile, unnatural and ungodly act (Romans 1:24-32). Why should the male penis be inserted into the mouth of a woman? There are decent foreplay practices for arousal and sexual pleasure. God created sex for sexual pleasure but not through perverse activities.

If truly one is in Christ, the Spirit of God will bear witness with his spirit that he is a child of God (Romans 8:16). A true child of God has no fellowship with the works of darkness (1 John 1:6). He walks in the spirit and does not live after the flesh (Romans 8:4). 

A Christian who sets his affections on the sins, lusts and works of the flesh will naturally fulfill them (James 1:13-15) while the one who sets his affection on the things of the Spirit will fulfill them and the flesh will not dominate him.

Are Masturbation, Menstrual Sex & Oral Sex Justified Among Christians? (1)

Post 19:
Are Masturbation, Menstrual Sex and Oral Sex Justified Among Christians? (1)

Who is a Christian?

                               I.             A Christian is a person who has genuinely repented and is converted (Acts 3:19). Many repent but are not converted i.e. after the process of repentance which is regret for an evil, they do not return unto the Lord. Deuteronomy 30:2 says,

‘And thou shall return unto the Lord thy God, and shall obey His voice according to all that I command this day, thou and thy children, with all thine heart, and with all thine soul.’

A Christian is a person who has repented of sin and has returned unto the Lord in obedience to His commands. He is not a Christian on his lips only but also in deeds whose practice aligns with his profession.

                             II.            A Christian is a new creature who has become a born again through a spiritual rebirth (2 Corinthians 5:17). At birth into the world, the spirit of man is dead in inherited sin through the Adamic nature by which all men are born sinners. In that state, man is separated from God.

To return to God, the spiritual rebirth is necessary to resurrect the dead spirit to link up with the Holy Spirit. Therefore, a Christian is a person who has been spiritually regenerated through the sacrificial blood of Jesus Christ (Ephesians 1:7) and the Word of God (Psalm 119:105).

Being born into a Christian family because your parents are already Christians does not make you a Christian until you conform to Romans 10:9-10 which says,

‘   That if thou shall confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shall be saved For with the heart man believes unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation’

Salvation is a personal decision and is not determined by your parents’ claims to salvation. On the Day of Judgment, you will give your own account. Until you accept Christ personally, you are not yet a member of His Body (Romans 10:9-10).

                          III.            A Christian is a person who does not yield his members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin (Romans 6:13). Sin has no power over him as he has surrendered the totality of his life and faculties to Christ and is led by the Spirit of God (Romans 8:14) (Galatians 5:16-18).

He has been translated from darkness to light and transformation of lives is the essence of the gospel. A Christian whose life is not transformed though he makes claims to salvation is running a race to destruction.

                          IV.            A Christian is a holy personality. God calls His children to personal holiness in Leviticus 11:44 which says, ‘…ye shall sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; as I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourself…’

The holiness that God requires is a total separation from anything unclean, unholy and abominable. It is also a separation from all sin and immoral living and a consecration to all that God is consecrated to.

Holiness involves personal moral cleanness in life and conduct which is evidenced by purity of life and morals. It involves inward purity that goes beyond outward appearances of holiness common to men.

A Christian as a holy personality does not serve sin. Millions of Christians are yet to come to terms with the facts that they cannot be a servant of sin and Satan while being a servant of Christ and righteousness at the same time. One cannot serve God and Mammon together. Committing sin makes one to be a servant of the Devil (John 8:44) (1 John 5:8) and is not certainly a Christian. Jesus Christ is not the Master of a Christian who willfully commits sin (Hebrews 10:26-31).

What are the old things that have passed away? (2 Corinthians 5:17)

The spirit nature and the power of sinning also known as the Old Man which is the spirit of the Devil working in men of disobedience. Some of its manifestations are addressed by the Bible as:

The lusts of the flesh (Ephesians 2:3)

The works of the flesh (Galatians 5:19)

Vile affections (Romans 1:26, 29)

The carnal mind (Romans 8:1-13)

A Christian is called to walk in the Spirit in order not to fulfill the works of the flesh (Galatians 5:16). 

Romans 8:6 say, ‘for to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.’ Romans 8:13 implies that we should no more live in the sins of the flesh else we die. By the Spirit of God indwelling us, we can put to death the practices of the flesh.

2 Corinthians 6:17 say, ‘…touch not the unclean thing…’’

The unclean here refers to all moral and physical uncleanness that must be cleansed from the body and spirit.

 Romans 12:1-2 say, ‘…present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy acceptable unto God which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.’’

1 Corinthians 3:16-17 say, ‘know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.’

This is a solemn warning against sexual sins and perversions, alcohol, tobacco, narcotics, tattoos and incisions, and immoral dressing which destroy the temple of God.

2 Corinthians 7:1 say, ‘…let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.’’

There are two kinds of men:

1)    The natural man, who lives under the control of his fleshly passions, the sensual and depraved part of man that is in contrast to his rational part. He is the animal man opposed to the spiritual man. He has no relish or interest in spiritual things. He lives for the world and its carnal pleasures due to his animalistic appetites and is spiritually dead (Ephesians 2:1-9).

One of such is the man who is so depraved and perverted in the mind as to have sexual intercourse with a menstrual woman, and another is a woman also so depraved to permit such abominable sexual act contrary to the Word of God in Leviticus 18:19 & 20:18.

     2) The spiritual man, whose life is directed by the Holy Spirit and minds spiritual things, discerns and esteems the spiritual above the sensual. He is a new creature resurrected from death in trespasses and sins. In him, the lower animal passions have been crucified and put off.

There is a perfect and sinless carnality. Sex and sexual pleasure is carnal but not sinful on their own as it was created by God for lawfully wedded couples for sharing of pleasure. But when it is performed in ways and manners that violates the laws of God, it becomes sinful carnality. In this vein, there are decent and indecent sexual practices.

Galatians 5:16 say, ‘walk in the spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.’ Galatians 5:24 say, ‘they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.’

These refer to all true Christians to aspire to this level in their Christian walk. Though we have been called to freedom from the law, this does not absolve us of the responsibility to live right. The new covenant demands righteousness of all men. The standard of righteousness that God demands in the New Testament is not different from the standard He set for Abraham in Genesis 17:1.

Manifestations of a fleshly life that damns the souls of men (Galatians 5:19-21) are many and include Uncleanness and Lasciviousness.

Uncleanness is the general scriptural term for anything opposite of purity including sodomy, homosexuals, lesbianism, pederasty, bestiality, masturbation, menstrual sex, oral sex and many other sexual perversions among men and women that also include sex toys like vibrators for obtaining sexual pleasure.

Lasciviousness is that which promotes and produces lewd emotions, fostering sexual sins and lust. It is wanton, filthy desire. It also is licentiousness and un-chastity.

Relevant Bible verses related to the above include 2 Corinthians 12:21; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 4:19; 5:3; Colossians 3:5; 1 Thessalonians 4:7; 2 Peter 2:10; Romans 13:13; 2 Peter 2:7 &18.

Sex is referred to as sexual intercourse, as an activity involving the male organ, the penis penetrating the female private organ, the vagina and accompanied by thrusts and rhythmic movements to achieve orgasm and ejaculation of semen.

Sex is not limited to penetrative sex as there are also non-penetrative sexual activities that do not involve a penile-vaginal penetration. Non-penetrative sex includes erotic massage, hand job, intercrural sex, mammary intercourse, Sumatra and oral stimulation. Oral stimulation of the genitals of a sexual partner with the tongue, teeth, mouth and lips is called oral sex but the kissing the mouth and breasts is not considered as oral sex.

There is intercourse and there are different types of intercourse. Intercourse refers to penetrative activities. One of them is the penile-vaginal penetration. Others that are not penile-vaginal penetration include anal intercourse, fellatio, cunnilingus, digital intercourse, vibrators etc.

The penile-vaginal penetration is the scripturally ordained and accepted form of sex created by God. The non-penetrative sexual activities such as oral sex and masturbation and the penetrative sexual activities that do not involve a penile-vaginal penetration are sexual perverse activities and an abuse of the body of man which is the temple of God (1 Corinthians 3:16-17).

They are sinful and abominable practices strictly forbidden in Galatians 5:19, Romans 1:24-32 and Colossians 3:5. They are heathen practices and those that engage in them are worthy of death and hell because God has called us not unto uncleanness but unto holiness within and without (1 Thessalonians 4:7).

Oral sex which is tongue licking the genitals -penis and vagina- of a sexual partner is an unclean heathen practice. It is a detestable, degrading and irritating act not expected of a Christian. It is an abuse of the body of man which is the temple of God.

A Christian in whom the Holy Spirit is dwelling cannot be performing oral sex and expect the Spirit of God to continue to dwell in him. Oral sex is the product of a corrupted and polluted heart. It is a base, animalistic passion that defiles. For such abominations, God cast out those pagans in the lands of Canaan which the Israelites inherited. Likewise, God will cast out all those who partake in these abominable practices from His Kingdom (Galatians 5:19-21).

There are varieties of masturbation involving man and woman. Basically, masturbation is self-stimulation of one’s sexual organs to achieve sexual pleasure, orgasm, and ejaculation of semen to relieve accumulated sexual tension. The semen known as the seed of copulation is expected to be deposited into the female vagina. When it is deposited anywhere else, it becomes a violation. In Genesis 38, God killed a man who spilled his semen on the floor. Would it not be worse for a man who ejected his semen through unnatural and ungodly process that defiles his body which is God's temple?

Any process outside the penile-vaginal penetration that causes the semen to flow freely, overflow or waste away is an unclean act that defiles the body of man which is the temple of God (Romans 12:1-2) (1 Corinthians 3:16-17). Therefore, masturbation is an unnatural and ungodly process and a sin before God.

Masturbation includes male masturbation. A male masturbation is performed by a male on himself through self stimulation of sexual organs. Masturbation is a sexual perverse activity, unclean, a dishonoring of one’s body, a vile affection and product of an apostate and reprobate mind that has strayed far away from God (Romans 1:18-32).
