About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"LUSTING IS A SIN" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
HAVE YOU COMMITTED ADULTERY? A HARSH QUESTION BUT BEAR WITH ME. DO YOU WATCH PORN? AN EMBARRASSING QUESTION BUT BEAR WITH ME AGAIN. I AM MAINLY TALKING TO THE MEN OUT THERE. PORN CAN BE AN ADDICTION AND ONE THAT CAN BE AS BAD AS ALCOHOLISM. I HAVE WRITTEN ON ADDITIONS IN ANOTHER MESSAGE SO I WON'T GO INTO THAT HERE. HOWEVER, PORN CAN BREAK UP YOUR MARRIAGE NOT TO MENTION WHAT IT DOES TO YOUR SOUL. WHEN YOU WATCH PORN YOU ARE LUSTING AFTER SOMEONE YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER. LOOK WHAT JESUS SAYS IN MATTHEW 5:28 "But I say unto you, That whosoever l ooketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." NOW FOR THE FINAL BLOW. JAMES 1:15 Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.
WE MEN START OUT YOUNG. MOST OF YOU GUYS WILL RELATE TO THIS. REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE AT SUMMER CAMP OR NEXT DOOR IN YOUR FRIEND'S GARAGE AND HE FOUND A NUDIST MAGAZINE BELONGING TO HIS DAD? TO A NINE OR TEN YEAR OLD BOY THAT WAS EXCITING. YOU GOT TO SEE A NAKED WOMAN PROBABLE FOR THE FIRST TIME. THEN, WHO OF YOU FOUND YOUR DAD'S PLAYBOY MAGAZINE? THEY STARTED OUT PRETTY CALM, NOT SHOWING TOO MUCH, BUT THAT WAS STILL EXCITING. BACK THEN WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT LUST WAS BUT THE PICTURES GOT OUR ATTENTION, SOME WORSE THAN OTHERS.
NOW GETTING INTO TODAY'S WORLD AND LOOK WHAT WE HAVE. OUR CHILDREN ARE EXPOSED TO ALL KINDS OF TERRIBLE THINGS ON THE INTERNET. DO YOU MONITOR YOUR CHILDREN'S COMPUTER AS TO WHAT THEY CAN WATCH? YOU SHOULD BECAUSE IT COULD BECOME AN ADDITION TO THEM. I WAS NEVER ADDICTED BUT I HAVE OPENED UP A COUPLE OF PORN SITES AND WOW, I WAS REALLY SHOCKED BECAUSE I DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING. IT WAS JUST RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF ME. IT IS RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF YOUR CHILDREN ALSO. ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS TO CLICK ON THE PLACE ASKING IF THEY ARE 18 YEARS OLD OR OLDER. IF A CHILD GOES ON TO ONE OF THOSE SITES, DO YOU THINK HE IS NOT GOING TO CLICK ON THAT BUTTON......RIGHT?
GETTING BACK TO THE LUSTING. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE WATCHING PORN. IT COULD BE THE WOMAN NEXT DOOR OR DOWN THE STREET. I KNOW BECAUSE I ONCE LUSTED AFTER A WOMAN AT CHURCH, OF ALL PLACES. LUST IS A POWERFUL EMOTION AND HAS TO BE KEPT IN CHECK . KEEP YOUR THOUGHTS ON JESUS AND YOU WILL NOT HAVE LUSTFUL THOUGHTS. YOU CAN'T BE TEMPTED BY SOMETHING YOU DON'T IMAGINE OR THINK ABOUT. THE BIBLE TELLS US TO CAST DOWN IMAGINATIONS. (2 CORINTHIANS 10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ,) BY THE WAY, I REPENTED FOR MY LUSTING IN CHURCH. IT JUST SHOWS YOU HOW POWERFUL LUST IS.
IF ANY OF YOU MEN ARE HAVING PROBLEMS LEAVING PORN ALONE, EVERY TIME YOU THINK ABOUT OPENING UP ONE OF THESE SITES, CLICK ON A BIBLE VERSE LIKE "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." I GUARANTEE YOU, YOU WILL NOT OPEN THAT SITE. IF YOU ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM, I AM PRAYING FOR YOU.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
