How to Stop Looking At Porn
If you watch porn, and you know you need to stop looking at nude people and masturbating to them, there’s a simple solution for ending this lurid obsession with the flesh. You won’t have to take notes or remember some cutesy acronym.
Here it is: Stop looking at porn.
It’s that simple. And you know it.
You know what you’re doing is evil. God hates it. Have you not read that He will judge all the sexually immoral and throw them in the lake of fire? Is porn and masturbating really so important you would risk going to hell for it?
As for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. (Revelation 21:8)
God forbid you become so enslaved by your lust you don’t even think it’s wrong anymore.
“It’s harmless!” you say. “It’s not actually sex! The Bible doesn’t say anything about masturbating! It’s not actually adultery!”
If that’s your attitude, perhaps God’s already turned you over to a debased mind to be destroyed by your passions. You’ve suppressed the truth with unrighteousness.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, since they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen. (Romans 1:24-25)
God have mercy on you.
But, if there’s part of you, by the Holy Spirit of God,still convicted over this… then stop!
The Bible says: Flee from sexual immorality. (1 Corinthians 6:18)
Not “go through five stages”. Not “enter a program”
Get away from it!
Flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart. (2 Timothy 2:22)
Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts you double-minded. Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will exalt you. (James 4:7-10)
Beg for God’s forgiveness. Ask for the mind of Christ and He will deliver you from your sin.
…when we understand the text.
