Porn Kills - Get Informed!

St. Augustine said that Christians should realize that,

“wherever we may find truth, it is the Lord’s.” (On Christian Doctrine, II. 40)  

We know from the Bible that God’s design for sex is finding its expression within the safety and commitment of the marriage covenant.

In a culture that has seen at least two full generations turn sex into a commodity for mere consumption, it is heartening to see a new generation waking up to the absolute destructive power of porn. God’s Word warns us, and now even more science is showing us that porn is far from harmless, and even though in Christ we can always find forgiveness, the real life consequences are not easily dispensed with.

Porn physically alters the brain, destroys capacity for genuine relational intimacy, and empties the soul. Christians addicted to porn need to find a safe place to confess and break free, and parents need to take vigilant steps to educate and safeguard their families.

I recently came across this movement to end porn called Fight The New Drug. It isn’t Christian in its orientation, but there is good information related to the insidious nature of porn.
