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).
