Sinning.
If it is a sin to feel lustful, wouldn't that cause everyone to be a sinner? No matter if you realize it or not, because lust is a strong sexual desire.. correct? Well, if you guys are like my friends and I, and we talk about boys a lot cause we're lame, you probably have said something like "I would do such bad things to that boy" or whatever, you get my drift. Anyway, wouldn't that be considered lust?, which would be considered a sin?
I know that people masturbating isn't a sin but the lustful thoughts is what makes it one, cause in the bible it's never stated anything about masturbation. When I found this out I just became curious about those things, that's all.. haha. Thank you in advance.

Everyone is a sinner, regardless as to lust. The Bible says "for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God"-Romans 3:23. Everyone has sinned in their life. I don't know anyone who has never disobeyed their parents or who has never lied. I used to work with children and saw even one and two-year-olds lie and tell their parents no in disobedience. But you can be redeemed. Ask God for forgiveness and accept Jesus as your Savior because he died on the cross for your sins and you will be forgiven and will become a child of God who will inherit the kindgom of heaven when you die. Yes lust is a sin: Matthew 5:28
"But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." You shouldn't be thinking about having sex or sexual things with someone that you aren't married to. Everyone struggles with this sin at times like they struggle with telling a white lie or going against thier parents. But we can all pray to God and ask him to help us with our sin and we can begin to sin less. We will always sin even when we become Christians, but we can reach a point where we will sin less than we used to. And when we do sin we need to ask God to forgive us.

I do believe lust or lustfulness is a sin, which technically does make alot of people sinners..but the beauty in God is that no matter what we do in life..he will always be there to unconditionally love and accept us. NO MATTER WHAT! Of course he wishes we wouldn't but he understands it is in our human nature to sin. For masturbation i believe that too is a sin for the fact that it is self-gratification at the most extreme. When you masturbate what are you trying to mimic? Sex, right? And sex is most enjoyed when married and committed to eachother for life!

Well, I'm not sure that masturbation is NOT against religion, I think it is. Yes, it's true nothing is written about in the bible, but if it's a sin to think about someone and masturbation isn't, don't you see something wrong? I do ..
Look, everyone has their own beliefs but if you want my opinion, don't believe anything that anyone tells you or anything that you read. I'd be considered as an open minded religious person, that's confusing? Yes it is but it makes sense to me.
What I simply did .. I studied Jewish religion, Christianity religion, and believe it or not, Islam religion.. and If someone asked what's my religion, I'd simply answer "I believe in god, and I do what feels right and what makes sense to me"
Hope I answered any of your questions .. !
Good Luck =]

Everyone believes different things..
In my opinion, it does not hurt anyone to have sexual desires... ITS A PART OF NATURE!
