So what’s the big deal about Porn? Pt. 1

1) It sets up UNREALISTIC SEXUAL EXPECTATIONS. You are putting unwarranted and unrealistic sexual expectations on your wife (or future wife).  She is not a porn star.  What if you expect a sexual relationship with her like she is? And she won’t or can’t deliver? Filling your mind with porn can bring you serious disappointment with your wife sexually and cost you your marriage in more ways than one. It will lead to emotional distancing, more porn viewing, and potentially take you to untold heights of other sexual sin that will ruin your relationships, family, career, indeed your very life.

I read a booklet recently that shared how a man would lay porn photos and magazines on the pillow next to his wife so he could look at them while he had sex with her. He fed his mind so much porn that it was poisoned, warped, and calloused to sexual enjoyment with his wife alone.  Porn on a pillow was the only way he could get sexual “fulfillment.” Imagine how cheap and degraded his wife felt?

It doesn’t have to be as extreme as laying porn images on the pillow either. It can come from you gazing at and lusting after a woman at your office, Church, School, and fantasizing about sex with her while making love with your wife or masturbating.  This is sexual sin, degradation of your wife, and a severing of “oneness” with her.

Why do that to yourself then? Why feed your mind with porn and lust only to make fantasy as “normal” and set your marriage or future marriage up for failure?  Stop feeding your mind this poison.  And instead do as Solomon encouraged His son, Rehoboham, to do (And Rehoboam may not have been married at the time either).

Let your wife be a fountain of blessing for you.  Rejoice in the wife of your youth.  She is a loving doe, a graceful deer.  Let her breasts satisfy you always.  May you always be captivated by her love. Why be captivated, my son, with an immoral woman, or embrace the breasts of an adulterous woman?

An evil man is held captive by his own sins; they are ropes that catch and hold him. He will die for lack of self-control; he will be lost because of his incredible folly.
Proverbs 5:16-23 (NLT)

Porn is a big deal. It cheapens sexual intimacy and “oneness” that God gifted to his creation between man and wife. Porn is fantasy that displays intself as “normal” and will set you up for major disappointment. It devalues and degrades your wife or future wife. And it only serves to feed animalistic lust and make porn filmmakers millions.

Sexual sin is like ropes that that can hold you captive and put a noose around your neck. Get control man.  Reflect on what porn is doing to you (or will do to you) and how it will affect your marriage. And most of all, repent.

    Aw, this was a ultimately quality write-up. In theory I’d prefer to compose like this also - getting time and real work to build a superior post… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and certainly not seem to obtain something performed.
