is masterbation a sin? if so then how do i stop? (link)

I don't know if there is a clear cut answer to the problem If you can stop I would say stop its better if you do. As a young person such as your self I did that same thing and I felt guilty about it. My conscience testified ageist me and maybe some if it was condemnation. So as a young person I would say try to stop where does it say its good or where does it say its bad. There are those ppl who are hollyer than thou but if you conscience is saying no I think God can use that to talk to you. As I get older its something telling me to get married. One of the problems is its not the real thing its not love and its not sex. Its misleading and abusive in a way but thats me. bible.com has some ansers I agree with some of it and other verses I think there out of context only Jesus was perfect the dispels where not.

Amazingly enuf Wikipedia gives some good answers for love. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love
You get into the greek and there is five types of love.
The bible says if you don't love your self you can't love others something like that. If you don't its just mechanical and that sucks.
The bible also says in the fruit of the spirit the his love possessed us. It may not be a feeling but a state of being ... where it says be filled with the holy spirit its saying be possessed with the holy spirit. God considers it to be a holy thing
and to be in the context of marriage. Sex sells a piece of gum sells you car. Its marketing take your most basic human need and exploit it. Its every where you look. You may be looking for love in all the wrong places. Don't try to get too deep the heart if deceptively wicked only the holy spirit should search out the heart. I don't have clear cut answers my self because I don't know I know if you stop your better off. Love your self and try to not to give into that nature if you can. And you can ask God for help and revelation on the truth.
