Masturbation is a manifestation of the fruits of the flesh known as "Lasciviousness" as seen in Galatians 5:19....

And its often a product of what a man consumes into his mind regularly.

It is a big sin. Xo refrain from it if you are already involved in the act

Let me make this easy for you.

Everything could be a Sin depending on context.
Even speaking the truth at the wrong place and wrong time.
Did I lose you already? Stay with me. grin

In the biblical context, masturbation is a sin so if you're talking religiously, yes it is.
But masturbation is also advised as a medical requirement for some tests and certain sexual and emotional treatments.
So medically it's not a sin.

But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matthew:5:28

Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
1 Corinthians:6:13

Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
1 Corinthians:6:15

Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
1 Corinthians:6:18

What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy spirit which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?
1 Corinthians:6:19

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
1 Corinthians:6:20

Hope these help...

Wat is lust?
Wen u masturbate looking at ur wife's pics maybe because she is pregnant or far away is it a sin?
Masturbation on its own is not a sin. D sin there comes in wen u masturbate lusting after someone who is not ur wife?
If u can also masturbate without thinking about sex with someone or a naked lady it is not still a sin though dat one is almost impossible

It comes back to context. As a husband/wife masturbating to his/her married partner, it shouldn't be a sin. But any other way, it would be regarded a biblical sin.

Wat of if u masturbate thinking about sex with ur wife?
Wat of if u masturbate without thinking about any woman or sex
Ur body is d temple of God yes, but does masturbation on its own destroy d body? No. It even makes d body healthier.

Can u fornicate without an opposite sex? No
How do u glorify God in ur body? By using dat body for d work of Christ

Dats exactly my point. Masturbation on its own is not a sin? Wat u think of or see while masturbating is wat can make it a sin or not.
So d sinful nature of Masturbation is conditional

‌“It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should
avoid sexual immorality ; that each of you should learn to control
your own body in a way that is holy and honorable, not in
passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God” – 1
Thessalonians 4:3-5

‌I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Romans:12:1

‌All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
1 Corinthians:6:12

stoo misleading people. In christianity, we are commanded to speak the truth at all times. It is never a sin to soeak the truth at the wrong place sir. Jesus Christ spoke the truty at the face of death, likewise Steven and the other disciples.

Also, there's nothing like medical sin, and religious sin. Sin is sin. Masturbation is sin, period.

Do you know what lust is? Jesus christ said looking at a woman lustfully is adultery already. Can you masturbate without lusting?

So by calling a spade a spade it means we're pretending. Haven't you told lies before? Does it make lying less of a sin?
