first off, im amazed that this hasnt turned into a flame war. im earnestly impressed...
Masturbation a sin you say sbscout: where's it *say* that in the Bible?
Matthew 5:28 is the most famous instance of saying that lust is a sin. lust is kinda important for the deed. ive looked before, but ive never found a straight condemming of masturbation.
one thing, as a Christian myself id have to say that the OT is vital to the Christian life. not so much for keeping kosher or whatnot, but in that it is the foundation for the NT. everything in it points to the NT. and the NT wouldnt work without it.
