in my studies to become a biblical counselor, we find that in the church today, we have traded the biblical and theological explanations for human behavior for secular, humanistic, unfounded psychology.
upon my understanding sin as sin, i had to throw away my vibrator today. based on scripture, matt 5:29 and matt 18:9 also mar 9:47.
it was a temptation that i could not control, so i did in obedience. the guilt associated with sin is GOD's way of warning us that we are in sin. sometimes we feel anxious, depressed, and guilty as red flags for our behavior.
pls, take the bibilcal approach to this subject, there is a way out of this hell and it is through the WORD of GOD.

I was glad to read that you only threw your vibrator away. I was fearful that you were losing your leg or something.

honestly, the title startled me and I was concerned. I'm glad you're okay. hugs, hon.

Yeah I kinda agree with whispering...thought something bad was wrong.

It is however wonder to read the fact that you were totally obedient to what the word of God told you.

God Bless You
Even in the hardest of times...He is there holding our hand
