Fantasising about wife...??

[tru61]

Hello

I've heard it taught that, from God's perspective, all sexual immorality is rooted in lustful desires and therefore a sin, which is why pornography and masturbation are notoriously part of 'Every [or many a Christian] Man's Battle'.

What are your convictions about a man fantasising about his wife who's travelled away for a while?
Even masturbating while 'lusting' after her?

Thanks

Lust is an 'evil desire' that would bring about sin if acted upon.  There is NO LUST between a man and his wife but godly sexual desire.  Yah (God) created us with a sexual desire to fulfill His command to be fruitful and multiply.  People confuse desire with lust.  They are NOT the same thing.
