    Very hard conversation but much needed. This topic is tip toed over so much especially when one may think that the struggle ends in marriage. I’m single but aspiring to marriage and think it’s important to have these conversations with your person and establish that safe space. I’m curious as to how Jess felt when you told her about your falling once she was away. I think it’s important that we are able to identify what our triggers are that may lead to the fall (sin) and establish boundaries . Also when those triggers are hard to tame, take the stance and let your no be NO and say it out loud if you have to. When those urges creep in, IMMEDIATELY identify it and shift whatever you’re doing in that moment. Also, give your self grace , no one’s perfect but you WILL overcome this (lean on the Holy Spirit to be your strength when you find yourself weak and ask that you may be sober minded and in control of your thoughts/actions at all times). Thank you for sharing 🫶🏼🙏🏽

    Shout out to Johnathan for being so vulnerable. This is definitely a conversation that needs to be had in today society! Being vulnerable isn’t easy so shout out to you for being radically obedient even when it was uncomfortable.

    We overcome by the words of our testimony, thank you for sharing your personal journey Jonathan. The p**n industry is so harmful to children and young people's psyche and spiritual well being. I truly feel it opens people up to evil spirits and addiction happens because of how our brains are wired and it can impact many aspects of your life. We should be guarding our hearts and eyes. People act like it's ok and normal for adults but it's pushing them farther and farther into darkness. It's been years since the Lord delivered me and now that my kids are getting older I worry about them coming across something they shouldn't see online. This is one thing Florida actually got right.

    Thank you guys for this. Kudos to Jonathan for being transparent and obedient to share this and his testimony. So many people especially “Christians “ /churches are afraid to speak on issues such as this and actually give practical guidance and support.
    We all have areas where we struggle and sometimes there’s complete victory over it and other times it’s like Paul’s thorn to keep us dependent on God.

    I will say for some people who don't understand how addicticing P can be people can often judge and look in disgusts at people who struggle with it but what God has shown me was that there are strong spirits behind it its more than the flesh its very spiritual that's why it can be hard to stop once its gets ahold of you if you know someone is struggling please pray for their breakthrough instead of turning your nose up at them because its spiritual warfare my ex had spirits attached to him (God protected me we never did the do) and I didnt judge him but prayed for his deliverance he is in a much better space now

    When talking about the subject of masturbation, I think when you reference Corinthians 7:9, and it says that it is better to marry than to burn with passion. It’s basically saying that if you can’t stay celibate, then it is better for you to get married so that you can have sex within the confines of marriage as opposed to finding gratification either through masturbation, fornication, or adultery. At least that’s the understanding that I get from it. I love this topic and this podcast. Great job guys.❤

    Great video ❤. Thanks for your transparency. I always enjoy your content. So a bit of advice for the cruise 🚢. My family and I literally just got back from our 4-5 day cruise with RC to Bahamas and we had a great time. We worked on our immune system prior because we knew we’d be interacting with tons of people. Hubby came back and got the flu. So just saying try to take those immune shots or those Jamaican concoctions. I’m from Guyana and we definitely have some. At the end of the day all those people germs can still spread but prepare yourself and it may not be so bad. Have fun 🎉

    Whew!!! That bit about the enemy trying to get to the preacher through the kids? TRUTH!!! And he won't stop there! He'll go after the grandbabies too! Anything to kill the anointing on your life! That Phillip Anthony Mitchell ain't no joke! But that's the kind of raw teaching the church needs these days. The Word cuts all by itself! So many pastors are putting on a show and being theatrical when the Word is all they need. This was a great topic! Kudos to you both for talking about the hard stuff! It is needed! Happy New Year to you both! And Happy Birthday Jess!

    Welcome back guys. We missed y’all but so glad y’all were able to unplug and recharge a bit. Thanks for your transparency (and more importantly your obedience) in discussing this topic. I love that Jonathan mentioned how demonic porn is. And so it has to be fought spiritually because the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds. I’m so glad that God said his strength is made perfect in weakness. So with any struggles, I’m trying to remind myself that staying close to God is my key to unlock and access that strength during moments of weakness. Great podcast!

    I think its God speaking to me.
    I've been struggling with P*rn so bad. I'm always on and off with it.Even with all my vow to dedicate my life to God(baptism and all).I wanted my 2025 resolution to be so chaste.
    Now 14 days into the year and I've watched countless times (i notice i watch it anytime i feel bored🤦🏾‍♀️).
    I hate myself soo much and cant share with no one cos my close people will hate me.And now i believe God is done with me cos he's just tired of me slipping 😔)

    I thank you both for your honesty and being candid! I personally know that we are all God's creation and it appears that most animals if not all masturbate if they do not have access to sex. I think the act of masturbating may be ok because it is nature if you have any kind of sex drive. I think the problem and sin comes in when you look at others naked or having sex to get pleasure.

    • @BetweenTheWallsPod
      @BetweenTheWallsPod  3 дні тому +1

    My opinion I’m much newer to the faith (came back to Jesus in 2023 and still learning) but if we say that God is not the author of confusion, then if this grey area causes confusion among God’s people ans discourse, then we can infer it is not of God or a part of God’s character? So if God is so clear on sexual sin and immorality and if this context causes believers to sin then there should be no question that it does not pleases the Lord, even if you are with your spouse? Just a thought…

    Let the marriage bed be undefiled. Whatever you do with your spouse is OK with God as long as it is only you and your spouse. Do what is right for your home, family, and marriage. That is why the Bible says leave and cling to your spouse. The only opinion that counts is your spouse. As long as it aligns with the word of God.
