And so that's what leads to adultery.

That's what leads to disconnection even within a marriage.

Yeah.

Well, that's the thing, right?

I often tell men that porn isn't always the issue.

in that men have pornographic machines in their brains.

We've got memory, we've got imagination.

And this is really the tragedy is that there are a lot of men who have this deception in their minds that masturbation is okay.

I remember years ago counseling a young man when I was pastoring.

We were in the prayer room and he was saying, man, I don't know what's going on.

You know, I'm in the word, I'm in prayer, I'm going to church, I'm serving in my church.

He said, but I feel this weakness.

I feel this real kind of inability to have deep strength in my life.

And I just looked at him, I said, do you masturbate?

And, you know, after the shock hit him, he goes, yeah, you think that has something to do with it?

So a lot of guys are desensitized.

You know, the act of sexual intimacy was created by God for a specific purpose.

A guy didn't wake up one Tuesday morning and say, oh, that's a good idea, right?

God designed it.

He fashioned it and he formed it for a specific purpose.
