Is Pornography Harmful To You, And Our Society?

Keep pornography out of your reach! NeedEncouragement.comPlease contact us if you have any questions, comments, or encouragement.

Pornography is like candy because it can seem sweet and pleasurable for a moment, but it can make you sick. It can also spoil the natural appetite that God has given us. God knows what is best for you. Indeed healthy relationships are sabotaged when someone gets led astray by pornography. If you are struggling with staying away from pornography, this page can help give you some helpful insights!

Keep in mind that sexual temptation is the only temptation that we are to run away from, all other temptations, we are commanded to stand firm and fight. God knows our flesh is willing, but our spirit is weak. That is why we are told to run from all sexual temptations because no matter how much we want to do right, our flesh is weak and no match for pornography and other sexual desires outside marriage.  ~ Bill Greguska

Proverbs 6:25  Do not lust in your heart after her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyes. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pornography Rewires The Brain, Ruins Natural Sexual Desires!

 

God’s Way, Or Satan’s Way?

God intended sex to be beautiful between one man and one woman to keep the world populated. Our sinful world has attempted to change what God meant for good. Here are some definitions of how sex has distorted and evil.

The definition of debauchery = is extreme indulgence in bodily pleasures and especially sexual pleasures: behavior involving sex, drugs, alcohol, etc., that is often considered immoral.

The definition of lewd = is crude and offensive in a sexual way. “she began to gyrate to the music and sing a lewd song.”

The definition of lascivious = is filled with or showing sexual desire: lewd, lustful, lascivious acts/thoughts.

 

 

Every Man Battles With Lust, Pornography Makes It Worse!

In Life, You Need To Make Choices!

  1. EITHER Jesus Christ and His promise of everlasting life and follow Him?

       -Or-

     2. Follow the desires of your heart with pornography and lust?

 

The answer is simple, yet it can be challenging for many.

There is too much at risk. You Can Choose To Discipline Ourselves Now Or Be Disciplined Later By God. Matthew 7:23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

1 Corinthians 10:13  No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
