Masturbation as a Sexual Evil

Masturbation is the manipulation of one's sexual organ in order to obtain sexual satisfaction.

It is a deviation because it does not lead to conceptions and production of children as intended by God.

It is also a deviation because sex was originally intended for two people (male and female) in a marriage relationship, but masturbation is for one person's satisfaction.

Masturbation leads to addiction making one loose desire for proper sex which does not please God.

If married persons does it he or she deprives the partner sexual satisfaction; a solution to sexual passion (1 cor 7:9).

Leads to loss of self control.

In manipulation of sexual organs one can easily get infection from objects used for satisfaction.

 Since sex is supposed to be done with the right partner, right time, right place so through masturbation it deviates from the normally accepted way.

Our bodies are temples of God; the Holy Spirit so by doing masturbation we often go against the will of God.
