🥑🫒🌽🍎Very many years ago, a Christian brother advised a married Christian sister to get pornography for herself and her husband to watch. He gave that “advice” because the Christian housewife had complained to him about the dullness of her marriage’s bedroom life.
🍂When the lady told me about the “advice,” I quickly told her that the advice was completely wrong and that she should not obey it.
🍀Sir/Ma, please hear this: pornography, in whatever form, whether in print or film (movie), is of the devil and should not be watched by a born-again child of God, let alone being brought into the marriage bedroom with the intent of using it to add some flavour, seasoning, and taste to the couple’s intimate life. It is not just wrong and uncalled for; it is outrightly evil.
🥑🫒🌽🍎A HOLY SANCTUM
The couple’s bedroom is a hallowed domain, and their sexual life is the most holy aspect of their lives as one flesh.
🤎Whenever they come together in the bedroom for the solemn celebration of their oneness through sexual intimacy, no other person ought to be present except God Almighty, Who joined them together.
🥑🫒🌽🍎INVITING DEMONIC ENTITIES
Bringing a pornographic video or magazine into the bedroom to watch together as a couple in order to have a “better” time together is, spiritually speaking, inviting the demons behind the video and the pornographers who performed in it into your bedroom to join you and your spouse in your intercourse. This is spiritually and physically ominous.
🫐The consequences may not be instant or manifest on the first day, but surely and most certainly, they will come.
🥑🫒🌽🍎HAVING INTIMATE FELLOWSHIP WITH PORNOGRAPHERS
The time of sexual intimacy in the marriage bedroom is the time when you and your spouse reveal the fullness of yourselves to each other anew. It is a time of deep fellowship. It is a time when you should give each other your full, concentrated, and undivided attention.
♂️But when, instead of focusing on each other and drawing your sexual inspiration, motivation, excitement, stimulation, titillation, and passion from seeing and touching each other joyfully, you start by first watching the grossly sinful immorality of others as a means of “fueling your bodies” before “taking off,” do you still need to be told that the “fuel” you have poured into your bodies is adulterated, polluted, and ruinous because you got it from the satanic sex black market, which is what the porn industry is? And that it will certainly damage your sexuality?
🌵God’s Word tells us:
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?” (2 Corinthians 6:14)
🍁This Scripture applies to the marriage bedroom as well.
🌿God ordained that sexual intimacy be strictly between husband and wife. Why? Because they are one flesh. What, then, calls for bringing other people’s presence into your bedroom in the form of a pornographic video?
🪵Don’t you know that by such actions, you are having fellowship with those people and exposing yourself to their influence and to the spirit inside them?
🍇God’s Word says:
“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.”(Ephesians 5:11)
🎽If you are born again, know that pornography is an unfruitful work of darkness, and you ought to have nothing whatsoever to do with it.
🥑🫒🌽🍎CONCLUSION
It should interest you to know that many people in the porn industry struggle with substance abuse and other serious problems. Drug use contributes to the reckless and extreme behaviour sometimes displayed in the industry. It is also sometimes claimed that many of those involved are witches and wizards.
🌹I also read some years ago that spells are cast upon pornographic videos by their producers so that viewers would come under the power of those spells. How on earth would you bring such accursed things into your marriage bedroom to watch with your spouse and expect not to be spiritually attacked?
🏵️Finally, hear this: consumption of pornography can contribute to sexual difficulties for some people, including problems with arousal and erectile function. Some researchers and clinicians have discussed the phenomenon popularly called “porn-induced erectile dysfunction” (PIED), although the relationship between pornography use and erectile dysfunction is complex and remains debated.
🌱Put more plainly: for some men, habitual pornography use may make it more difficult to respond naturally to their wife’s presence and touch.
🥀Therefore, BEWARE OF PORNOGRAPHY. It is an enemy to your soul and, potentially, to your marriage.🥑🫒
