Hi guys, I know this is a sensative topic, so sorry if i'm offending anyone by bringing it up.

I know that there is no direct reference to masturbation in the Bible, and so many Christians think that it's fine, eg. My minister, when I heard that my minister thought that it was fine I was soooo shocked, becoz I beleive that it's wrong in God's sight, firstly, God says that it is a sin to even look at a women lustfully, the Bible also says, "Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body."

Now there are many other verses that are used to say that masturbation is wrong, most of the people who say that it's fine talk about the story of Onan, and that people who think that it is wrong bass their beliefs on this story and have the wrong perceptions...

Basically, I want to know ur oppinion and any verses that would help me, I'm seriously considering talking to my minister, but I want to have verses that justify my belief, if I am rite.

Thanks a lot
God bless
