Quotes on Porn

|  Mark Edward  |

Men look at porn for a number of reasons.

Boredom.  Horniness.

Escape.

Loneliness.

Sometimes, the reason is Pain.

Internal Pain.

So men self medicate.  “I’ll feel better if I can just ejaculate!”

No commitment.

No patience needed to please the wife.  No love needed.

Just getting off.

I’m probably not the first to tell you this, but here goes:

Porn is fake.

Porn is empty.

Porn makes loneliness lonelier.

Porn makes pain more painful.

God designed us to enjoy ejaculation.   It’s OK to want to cum.

But you don’t need porn.  It’s a perversion of God’s best for you.

Yes.  You need to ejaculate.  But you don’t need porn.

(Disclaimer:  If you look at porn, you won’t get a snooty judgement speech from us at I’d Rather Talk.™

What man reading this has never looked?

Yeah.

You.

But you don’t have to stay there.  There’s a way out.

Freedom is yours.

We stand with you to help you journey OUT.)




So.

Worship.  Speaking the Word.

Does this really work?

Try it exactly as prescribed above.

Tell me your answer.


Yeah.

Sexual temptation is strong.

But.

There is always a way out.

A way of escape.

Always.


 

Guys, when you repent and turn away, He puts it as far as the East is from the West.

He forgets it.

You can too.


 



  • 87% of college males use porn.
  • 57% of divorces involved one party having an obsessive interest in porn.
  • In 2016 alone, 91,980,225,000 videos were watched on Pornhub.
  • That’s 12.5 videos for every person on the planet.

Take a minutes to check out these crazy stats on porn HERE. 


 

 


 

This Quote and the next one are from the Post:  “Porn: It’s not About the Pics”


 



 



Do passages like this from God’s Word into your heart really make a difference?

Yes.

And when it is spoken out of your mouth, it’s a sword that’s cuts temptation down.

Kills it.

Boom.


Lay Aside.

Greek:  Apotithimi

apo = “away”

tithimi = “to place or lay something down”

To lay something down while at the same time pushing it far away.

Beyond Reach.


 



 

 




The porn industry spends billions trying to convince you porn is OK.

Porn destroys.  Porn weakens.

No one has ever masturbated to porn and exclaimed, “I feel stronger! I feel better about myself!”


There is a way out.

You have Courage inside you.  Talk to someone.

Read How to begin your journey out HERE.
