My hope in this post is to share how my view of porn has changed as I got into this Q stuff. I hope your mind can be enlightened by this as mine has after thinking about this.
----Prior to following Q----
I generally thought of the makeup of the people in porn as follows:
- 80% consenting girls
- 10% manipulated girls
- 10% trafficked girls
I thought I would be able to recognize the latter 20% and would not get off on that. From an irreligious-morality perspective, that 80% of consenters is not morally wrong.
Being a Christian, I believed all of it was wrong, but it's a struggle--right??
.
----After following Q----
After I got into this Q stuff, I realized how blind I was.
I found out about the degree of child sex trafficking. Jeffrey Epstein, his temple, and what they do underground. Manipulation. Realness of the battle between Good vs. Evil. Realness of spiritual war. Realness of God, Satan, and demons. Spirit cooking???
Then, I thought... What if the makeup of the people in porn is as follows:
- 10% consenting girls
- 60% manipulated girls
- 25% trafficked girls
- 5% demon-possessed girls
If this is true, then isn't the porn industry sick? Isn't it sick to get off from a manipulated/trafficked girl? Isn't it gross to think of jerking to a demon?
Consider the possibility that the girl was taken, brought up, and brain-washed to participate in Satanic rituals (like possibly what Isaac Kappy witnessed).
If this is the case, then upon virtually all moral standards--porn is wrong and sick!
Anyways, after this thought, my conclusion is that I'm done with entertaining the thought about looking upon porn. Why even 'think' to satisfy a feeling that wants something that is sick on all levels?
Hope this helps you and I do not mean to condemn any readers. Just sharing my personal journey. Go team!
I've found this past few months a lot of fellow brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus struggling with this as well as myself. I quit porn right before getting saved (no doubt by the Holy Ghost moving on me). But all those years of maturation coupled with it affects you. Not justifying it. Sex with your spouse is the only exception for Holy God honored sexual intimacy. But that porn much like manufactured drugs and excessive Alcohol, affects how the mind works and sometimes by severity can be partially permanent. Much like a thorn, I believe. Like Paul begged God to remove but Jesus responded with His grace was sufficient and that in weakness His power is made perfect. Anyways it's great to hear fellow Christians coming out and confessing the struggle associated with porn. I think the other issue is one of self control (I speak much in my own regard) and the other half being that people don't wanna marry anymore either. Marriage in the Bible is even mentioned as a gift to quell the sexual passions of a man or woman in a Holy manner through their spouse. But today's culture also doesn't want to accept that with marriage comes ownership of your spouses body as much as they own yours. They have a need; you are commanded to fulfill it. If you have a need; they are commanded to fulfill it. (Except for times of joint fasting). But sex is so throughly encouraged that Paul in the Spirit even told spouses not to fast from sex too long lest temptation befall them and they commit fornication and adultery. It's a grievous thing that the world has poisoned the youth from the joy of marriage with all the setbacks and made them out to be juice not worth the squeeze. God bless you, brother. I pray in Jesus name that you as well as myself and all Christians seek out not only self control/ but if we do desperately in our flesh desire sex that we also seek and pray for it to be fulfilled in a Holy place which is marriage between one man and one woman. Amen.
Well put, and I praise God with you for the freedom He has provided! When people fully understand the mysterious beauty God has intended for EVERY aspect of marriage, and how He intends for it to reflect the deep spiritual intimacy He wants to have with His beloved people (who He Himself calls His "bride"), every form of perversion or deviation from that holy reality becomes abhorrent. There may, sadly, still be some struggles--we are still slogging our way through a fallen world and have a real enemy seeking our destruction at every turn--but the purpose and the plan become crystal clear, and the way ahead becomes much, much easier.
As it's often said. It may be the harder road to walk but Who you gain at the end far outweighs what was lost. Jesus is worth that loss. We will struggle, yes. But I know His blood covers us that we may repent, dust ourselves off and try try again. The chastening is our evidence he still loves us. What would be a more fearful state is if we were no longer hearing His rebuke. God bless you in Jesus name, sibling. I look forward to sitting at the table with you in the kingdom of heaven with Jesus. Amen.
Amen! I look forward to that, too. ? What a glorious eternity awaits all of us who are sealed in Him!
