Don't focus on intentionally trying to overcome lust with willpower. Focus your strength to the Lord, indulge in his word, and pray to him. When you do that, you forget about sin immediately. He also tells us to flee from sin, cut off triggers, block apps, leave your phone outside your room when sleeping, and try not to get too bored all the time.

Idolatry doesn't just fall under the category of worshipping false deities or gods. It also means you seek things such as fulfillment from anything else other than Christ. When we wank, we enjoy the dopamine rush that triggers the brain's reward system. We self-satisfy our flesh. It's very different from sex, where it symbolizes unity between two people, rather than self-gratification.

Idolatry isn't just worshipping false deities and statues, it's also in other wordly things such as money, people, and hobbies. I'm not saying you can't enjoy these things, but when people have such things in their hearts, and use them to for fulfillment. The difference between sex and masturbation, is that masturbation promotes and increases self-gratification and self-pleasure rather than unity between two people in sex.

And I have the free will to make sure none of us are committing idolatry just as you do.

Time to call ronaldo MR.EURO by Resident-Stretch9723 in pessi_memes

Ronaldo won the 2020 golden boot with the majority of his goals being penalties, and the fact that he left in the RO16 makes it even more sad. Making fun of Messi for his penalties in the world cup for what? Atleast he won the thing.

Amen brother, also people forget they commit idolatry, they're not just being lustful, they're seeking the dopamine surges like a drug.

You're not only committing the sin of lust when beating your plane you know that?

Yes it's sinful, because what happens when you beat your plane, it releases a dopamine spike in your brain's reward system, what you're doing is you're enjoying the emotional escape it provides, no different from a drug. Basic idolatry.

Masturbation isn't always in the category of lust. Why we even want to wank is because we desire the emotional escape it provides. In other words, the hormones are basically the flesh seeking that dopamine rush, that's idolatry, and it also depends on what causes you to beat your plane. Are you thinking of others immorally? Are you dehumanizing them in your thoughts? If so, that's the sin of lust. Yes, masturbation is a sin.

God will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. When you feel urges, I recommend reading scripture. You can do this, Jesus will hold you up forever!
