The 7 Levels of Lust in the Bible (Most Christians are Trapped at Level 3)

✝️

Not me I enjoy women.

Lust can creep up so easily!

22:40 а, так вот почему в правилах интернета говорят, что имя анонимусов — легион. (/Шутка?)

1:34 кстати, вопрос, а как же благословение Бога на то, чтобы плодиться и размножаться? Которое было указано в начале бытия.
Типо нужно найти себе жену и только с ней, чтобы это не было грехом? Типо нужно же как-то размножаться, чтобы остались те, кто продолжили наше дело, когда мы не сможем.

Is this even biblical?

Sexual immorality is only one facet of lust, any want or desire outside His commands is lust, even desiring reciprocation of a deed/gesture or even a thank you...if it's "from the heart" or cheerful giving, you're not to expect anything in return, not even the tax write off.

Guys I wanted to ask a question. Is being attracted to a woman and not having sexual fantasies about her counting as lust?

This was eye opening. Thanks a lot. Amen. Thank you.

Guys I've been at level 7. And now I think I am still at level 6. Please pray for me thank you ♥️

I was in lust but i started going to church daily and pray and i haven't lusted till now and i hope for future

Level 6 can be reached before level 4. Trust me, I know.

I fear I have no escape. Is there a way to not be attracted to someone. I know attraction towards the other gender and stuff is normal and can lead to beautiful thinks but it feels like a curse and I know I should never be with anyone ever do to my lustfulness. I cannot be close to people. And even if I wanted to my anxiety will always keep and hold me back. I cannot talk to anyone about something I’m so shameful that I can’t even really talk to God or read the bible.

7 levels of wrath?

God help me! I don’t fully understand myself yet. But I want something better than this. Help me grow step by step. I have been struggling and yet still suffering this for 31 years of my entire life even though I am still a single man who is longing to be a father and a husband while still looking for a wife. And it is still hurting me and killing me. I feel trapped. I feel I have NO way out! Forgive me. I am addicted. I am lustful. I am perverted. I am corrupted. I am NO different from those who are promiscuous, seductive, prostitutes, whores, rapists, gangsters, criminals, murderers, etc. And I am NO better than those who are evil. I am just NOTHING special at all. And I NEVER WILL BE! I apologize for even thinking of sex.😢 I just want to have sons and daughters and grandkids!😭I never meant to be perverted!💔By Judgement day I am SO done for!💔😭31 years of addiction and I'm still going back. The good I want to do I never do, the sin I hate I keep returning to. I am officially screwed on Judgement Day!💔I don't always go to church, I don't always pray often, I don't always read the Holy Bible, and I don't always perform God's commands and demands. I wanted romance. I wanted sons and daughters. And I wanted grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Please don't take those away from me. Just because I am still addicted to watch porn, marriage is never for me at all. Even if I die without it. All this happened all because I was exposed at age 4 or 5 years old. This ALL started with an unlabeled blank VHS tape I never knew what content was in it. I thought was a family-friendly movie that we were familiar with until the VCR start playing with 2 nude naked person engaging sexual activities. Also there was a time my parents and I were at house in the country, I was 4 years old, I was tired and sleepy, so I went into a bedroom dark and quiet. As I was sleeping, they thought the room was empty for only the 2 of them to be alone, and after they were inside, they had their intimate moment and I was sleeping right next to them! This also began my hunger for intimacy. I know I should wait until marraige, but I might pass away without it regardless how my life goes. I have unwittingly allowed and invited everything sexual, and everything to do with sex into my life and my mind. God is most unhappy with me! I have created my own spiritual prison! So does this mean God sees me as lustful and unrepentant? Even though I never had my first time. Even though I never experienced intimacy. Even though I unwittingly encounter porn for the first time a age 4 or 5 years old. Is it possible my addiction drifted me to the point of lethargy?😨😰Even if I were the last person in my family living, is there still any real, true chance I can stll be exonerated by God, his son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit?🥺 Depsite my condition of this dreadful addiction which has been robbing me violently?😢A future husband IS what I WANTED become at least before I pass away! I have even spoken of this as a child! I want these things because my parents BOTH want to see their grandbabies! Don't let them die without ever seeing them. Not yet. My mother is in her 50s and my father just started in his 60s! But as I grew bigger so did my arousals, fetishes, fantasies, and other lustful thoughts and dreams at night. But I AM STILL afraid I will fall again! And I STILL fear that I can NEVER have ANY love of ANY kind because I am IMPURE! What if I never get love? What if I never get intimacy? What if I die without a wife or children? What if I wasted my prime years? The absolute fear of God and the extreme terror that this will NEVER change! For, the good I want to do, which I never do at all. And the sin I hate, I keep going back to.💔😭Because every time I see people, even if I never met them yet, my brain automatically keeps sexualizing them. This alone proves that I am unworthy of love, romance, marriage, children, and even grandchildren! I might not physically touched anyone. But I still used my imagination. This is why God will never let me marry or be married! I still want marriage, children, and grandchildren because I honor and value them, but never of sin nor lust. I suppose God would not care whether they were born or not. I feel so much pity. God denies marriage to pornographic addicts such as myself! Therefore, both lust and marriage never go together. No wonder I feel a lot of isolation. I act happy, tough, and confident in solitude, but in reality, I am just in denial. I'm tired of being by myself, all alone, so much, all the time. Isolation terrifies me so intensely!😨😰😱🥺😢😭 It's all my own fault I invited lust and gooning into my life at age 4 and allowed it to continue ruining my future! I have awakened something even at very young age that I wish I should not have. It hurts me the fact I'm stuck in a loop I never intended but increases as I grow older! This life I live and the choices and decisions I make thus far in my whole, entire life are not so black and white with God. God told me to wait until marriage but in the meantime, I keep looking for ways to be more intimate with a future wife. God will never allow such a farce coming from me! God already knows the fact that I am not really trying to marry for him, he knows I only want to marry just for sex. He always knew I want marrriage just to finally have sex with a future spouse freely whenever I wanted!It's official. I've tainted what God demanded from me big time!🚫⛔️❌️🔥💔👎😔😭Does this mean God is seeing me living my life in ignorance?😢 Because God never trusts ANYONE? And I don't even trust myself! I suppose I might as well will become dead as brimstone and sulfur destined for hell bound. Does this mean I am too lustful to have anyone near me?💔😢Am I just too lustful for even romance, marriage, intimacy, even children or gradnchildren? I never get a taste of what it feels like to hold a little one in my hands, one to call my own.💔😭I am hurting mentally, emotionally, and worst of all spiritually!💔😭Addictions did this damage to me! It is destroying every iota of me! This is my own fault age 4 hentai addiction to now 31 years old cancels all my hopes, dreams, my right to date, my will to marry and I'll never see my future sons, daughters, or grandchildren at least before I die!💔😭I still want to date, I still want to marry, and I still want to have sons, daughters, and even grandchildren. I never meant for any of this everyday sinning to keep going on in my life!🥺😢💔Life and time are both short. And everything I am still trying to fight for is gradually losing my grasp onto something beautiful. God told me to wait until marriage but in the meantime, I keep looking for ways to be more intimate with a future wife. God will never allow such a farce coming from me!💔👎😔😭God knows I am not trying to marry for him, he knows I only want to marry for sex. He always knew I want marrriage just to have sex whenever I wanted!🚫⛔️❌️👎💔🔥😭It's official. I've tainted what God demanded from me big time!👎💔❌️🚫⛔️😔All because of what happened at age 4, I have been dealing with for decades. Love is gone, romance is dead, dating is extinct, and marriage is ancient history!💔😔😖😭God, I didn’t understand what I saw back then. But I want a healthy and right kind of love someday. Help me grow into that. My childhood trauma turned into immoral addictions even on the internet! God, I didn’t choose how this started. But I want to change where it goes. Help me take one step. I might not physically be crying any tears, but I am crying, hurting, and dying internally, mentally, emotionally, psychologically, and worst of all spiritually!😭God, even though I’m still weak. But I’m willing to keep going. Help me take the next step too.

8:09 The source is brainwashing , the belief that porn gives us something , pleasure , support , relaxation . in fact, this is a lie, there is nothing good in porn, so by giving up porn you are not giving up anything, you are being liberated, because there is nothing in porn. The easy peasy method I advise everyone to read the book "easy peasy out porn "

To God Give All The Glory!!!

llegue al nivel 6... casi 7... veran, nunca tuve relaciones de este tipo con alguien, pero el daño interior que vivi es tal cual de los niveles 6 - 7. como en el video, empezó con algo pequeño, pero que aumento a niveles indescriptibles, para mis 14 años el prno mas extremo dentro de lo normal NO ERA SUFICIENTE, empece a ver humanos y animales hasta que tambien DEJO DE SER SUFICIENTE.... empece a ver torturas y demas con tal de sentir ALGO, y a los 15 años... consumi todo lo que el lugar mas oculto y oscuro de internet pudo ofrecer.... hasta que finalmente TAMBIEN DEJO DE SER SUFICIENTE. no pude avanzar, no porque no quisiera, sino porque no podia caer mas bajo sin ir a la practica con otras personas... estuve consumiendo lo peor del ser humano por AÑOS desde entonces.. no fue hasta hace poco que finalmente lo empece a dejar. todo gracias a jesus, en mantener mi fe aunque no viea resultados al principio.

porfavor... si lees esto, no sigas mis pasos. no vale la pena, esto simplemente te arruina la vida por un breve tiempo de morbo. y todo empezo con cosas pequeñas. apenas noten que empiezan a sentir un MINIMO de deseo indebido, RESISTAN Y NO CEDAN, oren las veces que sean necesarias aun si no ven un cambio inmediato. y si estas en donde yo estoy... no estas solo, el señor aun nos bendice y perdona, aun si es imposible de creer, solo arrepientete de tus pecados y cada dia intenta tomar un mejor camino.

que Dios los bendiga por siempre💔🩹🩹

The key point is intent. We have desires which is why God allowed people to seek a husband or wife. Lust with permission by God via marriage and let no one separate which has been connected.

🥰

What got me out looking at pornography was learning how much of it is human/child trafficking. Even if everything you look out is legal and above board, it’s directly proportional to the illicit market and distinguishing the difference isn’t very straightforward. Every click sends a signal that there is a demand.

IMPORTANT: I've struggled with lust a lot, but I've kicked the habit. Sometimes the urges are strong because of loneliness or depression and stress. If you're financial able, eat out with friends, go to church, volunteer, do something that'll occupy you for a few hours and get your energy lower. If you can't, remember the urges pass. You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. Trust me, in the moment it can feel like just "one more time", but it might set a standard for the future. God can give people over to retched desires, trust me, one more time can become months of spiritual dryness and sorrow, even falling away potentially. Watch a harmless video, a movie, a book, play a game, exercise, do something go get distracted. You can think of lust as cosplay love, it never leaves you satisfied. Sometimes when life feels empty, you will it with evil. Get hobbies, fill up your time. Gyming helped me I think, and I'm looking into writing a book. Know that God is a friend to those who love Him, you have a friend who you can talk to, vent to, chill with anytime. Watch a studio Ghibli film, My Neighbor Totoro is a masterclass on purity. Run from Satan, but also run into the arms of your Heavenly Father. Pray, study the word, do all things to His glory. And by all means pray for strength. Trust me, many times I literally thought it impossible for me. Sometime if you just wanna vent, ask advice, anything, remember this comment❤

Thankfully I've never made it to Level 4

Here's a quick reminder for everyone Jesus Christ died for us on the cross with every single sin that we have committed and that we will commit. But here's the thing everything that we have committed and that we are going to commit have been pinned to Jesus Christ and when he rose on the third day the thing that sin creates which is death he defeated death so at that point sin was useless and couldn't even do anything. So therefore if we place our faith and truly believe that Jesus rose from the dead in our hearts we will be safe for heaven without any sin remembered whatsoever this does not give us a license to keep sinning but when we accept Jesus truly in our hearts we will naturally have a hatred for sin and want to do things for him which will all come naturally. Jesus and what he did on the cross living as a perfect man is the only way we will go to Heaven by accepting his perfect sacrifice with faith understanding that what he did was enough if we accept that all of these natural things will come. have a blessed day my friends

We should be very careful about making the Christian life so formulaic.

I'm a drug addict and God gave me a new heart. However somewhere along the way I stopped getting back up because I kept grieving the Spirit and I couldn't stop. Until i eventually no longer felt conviction. And wound back up at number 7. I get so scared because i can feel my faith fading. Although i know in my heart that Jesus is real and He saved me, i can feel my sin sowing doubt in my mind and yet its like im flying down a hill with no brakes. Everything this video explained is true. I even started isolating myself.
I don't know how to starve my addiction and feed my spirit. I feel so far gone. Numb. Too little, too late. But Lord, please don't let me stay here. Sometimes, I can still hear that still small voice telling me to keep going. To come back to You. I know you didn't bring me this far, just to leave me here now. Help me to take every thought captive. I am Yours. ❤

This video came at the perfect time for me

This life is so brief and the fact that the sexually immoral won't see the Kingdom of Heaven is so serious that I don't want to mess this up. Taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ is the key. Jesus said, Those who love God will obey Jesus commandments, so either you do or you don't. Don't stay luke warm! Fully commit to following and getting to know Jesus, it's a two way street, so listen to Him and obey His word.

1 Corinthians 10:13 — “God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear…”

Temptation is a real struggle for many people, but it does not have to define your identity or control your future. God’s grace is greater than your weakness, and He gives strength, wisdom, and a way forward for those who seek Him sincerely.
Freedom often begins with honesty, repentance, accountability, renewing your mind with God’s Word, and staying close to Him daily. Growth may be gradual, but God is patient and faithful in the process.
Do not lose hope in the struggle. God is able to restore purity, strengthen self-control, and lead you into greater freedom and spiritual maturity through Christ.
God bless us all 🤍🙏🤍

Well deeply religious person here and transcendent kind giving person and ran into someone kind and Christian good and we have wonderful kind beautiful sex just two and and have found great joy and fitter bette rno shame no guilt just two people alone with issues in a world of judging people who have no idea who either of us are ... like living in a world of judgemental narcissists so we meet up twice a week with gifts and kindness and back messages and it is a wonderful thing.... I am not even sure it is LUST.. I do not even know what that is..I always liked her I.. My Italian ex said there was sex sex with love and making love..... and always in my mind there is a spiritual dimension to people I even find myself praying for them during sex..... > think this entire no sex before marriage thing from the 1960;s onwards has done more to alienate people from Church than anything else... and you can think and judge all you like I am miles and miles away from my clubbing neighbour who sleeps around non stop no real connection with people or real relationships..... I hatred the term sexercise as well when I first heard it awful but I get and friends with benefits and we are just happy and glowing fit and there is no guilt here and we may even get married who knows.................... maybe it is ture God finds one a wife... my point is this random relationship that just happened after years of knowing someone being kind and caring and helping genuine good way.. both believers just feels totally right.. maybe it is... any anyone judging here is wrong..is it lust or love or God's plan or mindless sex and sin and all... I have no idea but I genuinely believe it is also noone business and noone has any right to even have an opinion on it...other than us two... feels very right to us both....... and I don't think we lack insight... we have found smiles we never even knew we had it feels deeply spiritual and loving.... to the point I am even wondering... what lust even is.. but I can see why some folks might think this is lust... I see fine in a spiritual way.. like God wants this to happen....I always see people with a soul I am quiet, easily celibate and not a lustful person...... I do not argue there is not much drama created in my life slow to anger and I feel blessed and lucky really not sinful lost and lusting....... Just saying here people to BE CAREFUL in watching this as.. not sex before marriage and all else is having guilt and seeing all as sin in y view is not very healthy either... and I am not even sure God wants it that way.I am quite sure also that being lustful and out of control and giving into that willy nilly is pretty awful and not controlling yourself ....and going about with other lustful people is pretty shocking but having sex with spiritual people and out of some lucky find with love is very different.. i think Shakespeare in Measure for Measure shows the difference and I think Christ knows.........Just food for thought as nothing is only just lust in my view maybe that is just how i treat people and all my girlfriends in my life and finances..All a bit messed up my fiance died......... and stayed away from everyone for years and found someone kind in need alone and who needed me...and we needed each other is all kinds of ways...... and it works .... and I think god approves... .. Not married yet... no one knows.... but it is a very special and wonderful thing and the concept os lust of sin guilt and all in this programme to me is totally alive..we both feel alive grateful alive and blessed... and You can send me every kind of philosophial theological point and point of scripture you like .. .. sometimes you just know.

SEXUAL SIN is disgusting how could anyone lust over a person make me want to 🤢 vomit. All Sin makes me want to vomit 🤢 GOD BLESS ALL MUCH LOVE TO ALL BRETHEREN IN CHRIST

I have struggled with porn and i ask god to help me and now my p*nis stop getting rock hard like it used to , i am not turnt on anymore or in the mood to do masturbate i really think god did that or am i trippinh

I have struggled with lust in the past, but I found that God has taken me out of it, given me a new heart, and ever since then I’ve gone to regular confession, for when I sin, and read scripture daily which has helped me
