How Do I Escape The Trap Of Pornography?

2 Comments

We get so many letters from people who are frustrated and also who feel disgusted with themselves because they just can’t seem to unhook themselves from the pull that pornography has on their lives.

They ask the question, “how can I escape it” … “How can I stop doing what I don’t want to do?”

It’s like the Apostle Paul’s struggle, “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.” (Romans 7:15-16)

He went on to say, “As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. I know that nothing good lives in me, that it, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do —this I keep on doing.” (Romans 7:17-19)

The Apostle Paul eventually recognized that it was the “law of sin at work within my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God— through Jesus Christ our Lord!”

There is victory in Christ as we grab onto Him to help us gain victory over that which He has already conquered.

    (JAPAN) I need help. I face confusion and addiction. My spiritual life is a failure. How can I change?

    (USA)  My husband has been suffering from pornographic addiction for most of our marriage. Is there ever true deliverance from this sin? Has anyone ever stopped using porn, never desiring it again?
