I have been having this argument with someone. Is sexual desire a sin? I don't really have something tangible to say about it. I really want to know what people think about this. I really hope I will get to have an answer to my question. So I plead with everyone to give matured and biblical comments. God bless you as you do. *Waiting* |

Intimate desire is not a sin.Putting it into action outside of marriage is what makes it a sin. 131 Likes 3 Shares |

@op do you mean sexual urge or what? if yes, its not a sin. its normal. its God that put it in human. but its becomes a sin when we do not have self control over our urge and allow it overpower us. 68 Likes |

tpia6: Op is only playing with words. Of course he means lust. Lust is having sexual desire towards someone of the opposite sex which cannot be fulfilled legally. 5 Likes 1 Share |

I dont think sex.ual desire is a sin in its self unless you give it room to germinate and fantasize over it. I think thats what the bible made us understand. As humans we cant keep away from these feelings but self control is what guides most of us unless we will all be harlots. 9 Likes 4 Shares |

Is there any difference between Lust and Love. In primary sch, "we" were taught that the difference between the two is that love lasts forever. 3 Likes 1 Share |

it is not a sin if one desires one's wife or husband. be fruitful and multiply is an order by God....... so you got to desire your husband in-order to carry out that instruction. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

The truth is such thought will come into our mind but when they come never accept it but instead fight it off with the word of God. Sexual desire is lust of the flesh. And a wise man once said that "the greatest thing that can happen to a man is the ability to conquer(control) himself. And that's the flesh. 9 Likes 1 Share |

There are three spirits that speaks into the mind of a man. 1. Spirit of the flesh. 2. Spirit of the devil(demons). 3. Spirit of God(The Holy Spirit). . For we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers and rulers of the darkness of this world and against spiritual wickedness in high places. . The quality and quantity of the word of God you know and "understand"(If you don't understand it, it won't work for you) sharpens your life as a christian. We are not to resist sin(no form james bond) it'll end up resisting you. Joseph flee he didn't resist. So don't resist evil thoughts. Fight them off with the word of God and they'll die completely. You won't even know when they leave you. If you're a strong man and you're at war with another strong man. You need the help of a stronger man to help you defeat the other strong man. . The spirits of the devil or demons are principalities and you can't fight them off with your power. These spirits puts thoughts into the heart of men in form of suggestions and if you're not sensitive enough. They encourage the individual to carry out that plan. So you must realise that we are at war with powers and principalities. Who wins depends on who you feed. But thank God. For the weapons of our warfare are not but mighty through God for the pulling of strongholds and casting down imaginations. So feed on the word daily and be devoted to prayer. And every sexual or evil desire will be cleared off your mind and you'l have a renewed mind. REMAIN BLESSED. 53 Likes 3 Shares |

Learn to distinguish human biological make up from man religion make up,correlating both might be contradicting the purpose for human existence,for example,if one doesn't get sexual desire voluntarily or involuntarily,how would pro-creation be possible? 6 Likes |

No. Everybody has sexual desires. In Islam you don't get punished for thinking about stuff as long as you don't act on it which if you think about it is a reflection of your self discipline and determination because to be honest, everybody thinks about sex and has urges etc but not everybody goes to clubs and has one night stands with hookas just because of that. Whether you decide to act on them is a different thing. 9 Likes |
