Where in the bible does it talk about having an organism with yourself

1 CORINTHIANS 6:19 Don't you know that your body is the temple of Holy Spirit, who lives in you and who was given to you by God ? You do not belong to yourself but to God; he bought you for a price. So use your bodies for God's glory.

You get BAPTIZE with WATER where you repent from your sins and you RECEIVE the HOLY SPIRIT and then there is BAPTISM of the HOLY SPIRIT in which you receive the gift of the Holy spirit who will LIVE IN YOU and so IT IS WRITTEN that our BODY is a TEMPLE which means we CANNOT do any IMMORAL ACT(like self-pleasure) with our OWN BODY, it will be a SIN against GOD.



I hope you understand and would like to request you to read 1 CORINTHIANS it will help you to know more about the HOLY SPIRIT, GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, IMMORAL ACTS, MARRIAGE.

GOD BLESS YOU SISTER!

Sorry about this question,I didn't know it would go into a chat room. The reasoning for this question is I'm trying to teach my niece and my daughter's cousin about sel-pleasure,and they ask where it says in the bible,I didn't know where to find it,so I thought I would ask. Again sorry about the question if it offended anyone my apologies. Don't need an answer I have already found where.

Hi Sissy , be sure that no one here is offended . As far as I'm aware there is no mention of masturbation in the Bible . This includes in the law of Moses and in the ten commandments and list of sexual sins . If it was a sin I'm sure that God would have said so . I do not believe that masturbation is a sin . It's good for us Christians to try very hard to control ourselves and abstain from it as much as possible but we also need to remember that sexual desire is natural and God given , without it the human race would have died out very quickly . Romantic and sexual love between husband and wife is God given but many folks don't ever find the right partner and enjoy that part of life . Suppressing the natural desire can cause all kinds of problems , we see this most powerfully in the catholic church . So , for those who are just beginning to feel sexual urges and for those who never marry , masturbation is understandable and there is no scripture where God says it is a sin , if it was a sin He would say so loud and clear , He is not the author of confusion .

Thank you, Jema
