Pornography and

Satans Trap
The pornographic industry is a multi-billion dollar
industry that works by bringing both men and
women into satanic bondage. Sadly, it is one of the
most popular industries in the world. It is a snare of
the devil and a deadly trap for those caught up in
its web.
I (the author) am writing this article because I want
to encourage men (and women) to get out of this
snare of the devil. I have learned that this trap will
literally bring the souls of men (and women) down to Hell. That is the devils plan and sadly,
it is working. But, God can reverse it. God only can set a man or woman caught up in this
trap free. In this article, we will find out how to get free from the grip of pornography.
Pornography is an addiction that 70% of men from 18 to 34 are caught up in (1). More than
72 million people view adult websites worldwide each month (1). Over 50% of pastors in
America say that pornography is a possible temptation (i.e. they are admitting that they
have a problem) (2). Fifty percent (50%) of all Christian men surveyed admit that they are
addicted to pornography (2) and 20% of all Christian women admit they are addicted (2).
Pornography has its clutches over many, many people around the world. It is an evil and
harmful addiction which has destroyed many marriages and destroyed many mens souls.
How is this so?
Jesus Christ said

Matthew 5:28-29
28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath
committed adultery with her already in his heart.
29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is
profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole
body should be cast into hell.
Jesus is saying to get rid of what tempts you to sin (i.e. what offends you). Proverbs 7 talks
more about this. Please take the time to read, seek God, and think about this.
Proverbs 7:1-5
1 My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee.
2 Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye.
3 Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the table of thine heart.
4 Say unto wisdom, Thou art my sister; and call understanding thy kinswoman:
5 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger which
flattereth with her words.
The strange woman is the harlot, or the prostitute, or the image of a woman that a man is
lusting after. This prostitute tells the man Come, let us take
our fill of love.
Proverbs 7:18-27 (bold / underline added)
18 Come, let us take our fill of love until the morning: let
us solace ourselves with loves.
19 For the goodman is not at home, he is gone a long
journey:
20 He hath taken a bag of money with him, and will come home at the day
appointed.
21 With her much fair speech she caused him to yield, with the flattering of her lips
she forced him.

22 He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to


the correction of the stocks;
23 Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth
not that it is for his life.
24 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my
mouth.
25 Let not thine heart decline to her ways, go not astray in her paths.
26 For she hath cast down many wounded: yea, many strong men have been slain
by her.
27 Her house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
This is very serious. He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, *+ as
a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life. And there are eternal
consequences for committing fornication, lust, or adultery (including pornography): Her
house is the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
The New Testament also gives a strong warning.
Colossians 3:5-6 (bold / underline added)
5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the
earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection,
evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is
idolatry:
6 For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on
the children of disobedience:
To mortify means to put to death these sins in your life (which bring about Gods wrath).
For further clarity, Revelation gives a list of those who will eternally be in the lake of fire.
Revelation 21:8 (bold / underline added)
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and
whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in
the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Galatians 6 gives this strong admonition.


Galatians 6:7-8 (bold / underline added)
7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he
also reap.
8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that
soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
Many Christians have been taught that
a Christian can never fall away. This
contradicts the clear teaching of
scripture. There are many scriptures
that show Christians can fall away.
(Ezekiel 33:13, Hebrews chapter 3,
Hebrews 10:26-31, Matthew 7:13-27, 1
Corinthians 6:9-10, Matthew 13:1-23
(parable of the soils), Mark 9:39-50,
Ezekiel 3:20-21, Romans 6:16, Romans
6:23, 1 Corinthians 6 (all of chapter 6),
etc.).
Ezekiel shows us that
Ezekiel 33:13
13 When I shall say to the righteous, that he shall surely live; if he trust to his own
righteousness, and commit iniquity, all his righteousnesses shall not be
remembered; but for his iniquity that he hath committed, he shall die for it.
This knowledge is important for getting set free from the prison of pornography. If you are a
Christian man (or woman) who is caught up in pornography or in looking at women
lustfully, you need to understand what the Bible says about sin. Do not listen to anyone
who teaches that you can never fall away. Being a Christian is not about going to church and
doing good deeds. Being a Christian is about knowing God and having a relationship with
God through His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ.
If you are in sin and do not know God and you die, Jesus will tell you
Matthew 7:19-23

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the
fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of
heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that
work iniquity.
If God only knew you for one split-second
of eternity its as if He never knew you.
Dont let that happen to you. God is not
willing that any should perish, but that all
should come to repentance. (2 Peter
3:9).
2 Peter 3:9
9 The Lord is not slack concerning
his promise, as some men count
slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that
all should come to repentance.
Repentance is the key in order to be set free from sin (including pornography which is a
type of fornication and adultery. See Matthew 5:28-29). God wants His children to confess
their sins to God and repent from sin. Repentance is turning away from sin and depending
on God for help to do so.
There is a way out of the trap of pornography (fornication). To get set free from
pornography one needs to be:
(1) confessing sin to God and repenting (turning away) from sin every time he or
she is aware of sinning (Proverbs 28:13-14 and 1 John 1:9-10);
(2) crying out to God for deliverance (see Psalm 40:12-13);

(3) using the sword of the Spirit (Gods word) and spiritual warfare against sin and
temptation whenever the temptation comes (Ephesians 6; 2 Corinthians 10:3-5;
James 4:4-10; etc.).

What is this spiritual warfare we are speaking of here? This is


something God has shown me from His Holy Bible. It really works
and it is powerful against the enemy. We have seen how effective it
is for getting set free from bondage to sin.
When you sin you need to:
(1) Confess and repent from all the sins you are aware of doing
(pornography, fornication, lust, pride, hate, fear, etc.).
(2) In Jesus Christs name, take back the ground (or territory in your life) you have
given to the enemy through your sins. This is taking back an enemy stronghold.
(3) In Jesus Christs name, bind the evil spirits of the sins you gave place to and cast
those spirits into the deep (abyss) in Jesus Christs name.
We will briefly mention some supporting scripture for this spiritual warfare. The first point
(1) is supported by Proverbs 28:13-14 and 1 John 1:9-10. Confession and repentance are
needed for a Christian to walk uprightly with God.
The second point (2) about taking back ground given to the enemy and binding evil spirits is
supported in 2 Corinthians 10:3-5, Matthew 18:18, and Psalm 149:6-9. Spirits can be bound
and ground can be taken back in Jesus Christs name (Luke 10:17-20 and Mark 16:17-18).
The third point (3) about binding evil spirits and casting them into the deep is supported in
Luke 10:17-20, Mark 16:17-18, and Luke 8:31. In Jesus Christs name, Christians can cast
demons out of people like the disciples did in the Gospel of Luke. In Jesus Christs name,
Christians can also tell demons to go down into the abyss (or deep). This is done only
through Jesus Christs all-powerful name (Matthew 28:18-20 and Mark 16:17).
If you (the Christian) do these Biblical steps, you will be free from sin (including addictions
to pornography and other things). As you seek God and look to God for help, God will help
you to fight the enemy and your own fleshly desires. God will give you the power to
overcome the enemy as you cry out to God. If you depend on God and seek God, He will
help you and you will be free from your addiction to any sin (including pornography). You

will still have to battle temptations but God will give you the help you need as you depend
on God (see James 1:13-15 and 1 Corinthians 10:12-13).

God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
God loves us so much that He sent His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins
and shed His precious blood to pay for all of these sins. (See John 3:16; and 1 Corinthians
15:3-5; and Romans 5:8-11.)
If you repent (turn away) from your sins (Acts 3:19), and believe and confess aloud that
Christ has done this for you (Romans 10:9-10), and have made Him your Lord and Savior
(again Romans 10:9-10) you are saved.

Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
