Now correct me if im wrong because while i was just thinking random thoughts i may have found some loophole to the scriptures which kinda talk about whacking off.
Now im sure it was peter who said something lke "a man shouldn't replace the pleasures (services?) of a woman with a man" (meaning don't gay)
now on the same thought process, a man who masturbates is doing just that, correct? (not the gaying, just the replacing of the this and that)
But now that we have all this online porn going here and there, if a man was to whack of on the imagry of a woman, would that somehow solve the issue? i think it makes sense in a way, its just like in a strip club, unless thats somehow wrong too.
im really just checking if i can piece bits of fact and logic together, would it make sense? is it correct?
Alright bible junkies, let hear it!

Guy, there are no loopholes! If you want to pleasure yourself, just do it, don't try to justify it by twisting the Bible. God is not going to send you to hell for that. We all have sinned and I am sure that everyone has sinned somehow today.
If it has a hold on you, you need to pray that God helps you with it. He can deliver you from sexual thoughts and sins. One thing that will help is not looking at pictures that make you want to do that. No porn, etc. You have to do your part.

First of all, I don't think that Peter ever talk about self indulging. But Jesus did say think pure thoughts. And walk in the spirit. I think that it would be kind of hard to live for God while watching sexual perversion on the computer. Sliding your mouse and what ever else with one hand and praising God with the other.

In Matthew 5:28 Christ said "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart."
So no, I don't think you can use that as a loophole.

If you are trying to get some useful guidance from the bible (on this or any other subject), you are wasting your time.
