Are wet dreams a sin?

Answer 1

no

Answer 2

The best definition of a sin is an act or omission that hurts someone, yourself, or God. This can be extended to include animals. So a wet dream should not be a sin after all who does it hurt. Besides, did you intend to have that wet dream? If not then it really wasn't an act you have control over. Besides wet dreams are normal. They are a sign of growing up and your interest in sex, it is only natural.

Now some Churches will claim that this is a sin. If you are Catholic then go to church confess the sin, do your penance and forget about it.

Answer 3

No, because to be a sin, the act needs to be controllable in some way. A sin can only be a sin if you have the will to choose it to happen or not. Since wet dreams are beyond a man's control, they aren't a sin. However, dwelling on them or on the dreams that may have caused it to happen can be a sin. Keep your mind clean as much as you can!

Answer 4

Sexuality is a biological function. Of course, there are limitations set by different societies and religions on what behavior is acceptable and what isn't. However, since you don't have direct control over your dreams, (unless you are lucid dreaming and I don't know if Christianity has ever addressed that) it can't be considered an action or even a conscious thought, and therefore a sin. However, many people in religious authority might not have thought it out so it will depend on who you ask.

Answer 5

This is a natural process in life. It is not a sin. Imagine if a girl and and a boy were alone in an island from the age of 4 and that they could survive by eating fruits and so on, if you went to that island twenty years later you will find more than two people living there. This happens thanks to wet dreams. It is a learning process.

Answer 6

No, if you are having wet dreams (dreams of a very physically excitible nature) you body will naturally respond. What is happening to you is you have reached that point in your growth cycle where hormone are kicking into overdrive to make the swich from kid to young adult. Girls start developing breasts and pubic hair and boys testicles drop and they also develop pubic hair. God made this process as part of the growth cycle, It's all natural so enjoy it but dont abuse it. Sex is a very wonderful thing and the doing it part is best shared when you are married and the love of your life spouse can share it with you. Remember too that your body is designed with a large amount of nerves in the pelvic region (penis and vagina). They are there to enhance the pleasure of sex. You can achieve this feeling with masturbation but leave the part where you get with someone of the opposite sex till marriage. It is much more special sharing it with someone you love!

Answer 7

I think you are thinking of sin in a misleading way. It doesn't matter if a certain act is a sin or not. What matters is our attitude toward God. You see individual sins such as lying, stealing, cheating, hatred etc. are only symptoms of the underlying disease of Sin.

Sin is the part of our very being that rebels against God, that doesn't want to submit to his wisdom and guidance. The part of us that cringes at the word "submit" because we want to go our own way and do our own thing.

We value our independence so much that we'd rather stumble around in the dark bruising ourselves than open our eyes to God's light.

Answer 8

Wet dreams just reveal what is in your heart.. just like your words.. your tongue reveals what is truly in your heart... So does your thoughts, actions, deeds and anything else.. you know the person by the fruits of his/her spirit... Sexual sin is something that is very hard to conquer... but if you pray that God takes the sexual, lustful thoughts away from you and strive to flee from it.. you wouldn't have wet dreams... They can also be a result of what you did or saw that day... If you were a true Christian.. that is... Striving to be Christ-Like... then you wouldn't put yourself around anything that would provoke wet dreams..

Just like masterbation...
It is a sin if your husband is not involved. It says in the Bible that you belong to your husband. and that your husband belongs to you. So pleasing yourself is a selfish lustful thing to do. Sex was created by God for a Husband and Wife to share and to draw closer to eachother.

GOD CREATED SEX TO BE A BEAUTIFUL AND ESSENTIAL INGREDIENT OF MARRIAGE.

1st CORINTHIANS 6:18-20
FLEE FROM SEXUAL IMMORALITY. ALL OTHER SINS A MAN COMMITS ARE OUTSIDE HIS BODY, BUT HE WHO SINS SEXUALLY SINS AGAINST HIS OWN BODY. 19 DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT YOUR BODY IS A TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, WHO IS IN YOU, WHOM YOU HAVE RECIEVED FROM GOD? YOU ARE NOT YOUR OWN; 20 YOU WERE BOUGHT AT A PRICE. THEREFORE HONOR GOD WITH YOUR BODY

Answer 9

I really don't think so. It is not like you can control them, can you? I did a little research on the net and it said that guys will have them basically if they do not clean the pipes regularly. Guess it has something to do with a build-up in there that can be bad for your health. Don't worry. I am SURE God understands.

Answer 10

I know it sounds wierd. But I heard it is, but not if you don't know the reason. See, there's a sex demon called Incubus and that demon actually has sex with you. Thats why people actually attain an orgasm sometimes. But if you didn't know that, then it wasn't a sin before. But now you do, so rebuke it at night before you go to bed.

Answer 11

personally, I don't believe so. They are just the minds ways releasing things that are only natural. Though not all dreams you should act on. Premartial sex and incest are a deff sin though.
