It Isn't A Sin For Christians To Read Erotica Or Watch Films With Nudity

It Isn't a Sin for Christians to Read Erotica
or Watch Films With Nudity

by John Solomon

 
DO YOU FEEL GUILTY WHEN LOOKING AT NUDITY?
This book will explain why it isn't a sin to look at images of nudity. John Solomon doesn't advocate hardcore XXX porn, or sexually-explicit pornography, but rather photos and films with tasteful displays of non-sexual nudity.

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT LOOKING AT NUDITY IS A SIN?
Most Bible-believing Christians are against looking at nudity. They believe that images of naked women are harmful because they tempt men to commit the sin of lust. Using Biblical principles, John Solomon argues that Christians can look at images of nudity in photos and films and not be guilty of any sin.

BONUS MATERIAL! Includes 15 sample poems from Steamy Erotic Poetry.

INTRODUCTION

I have written this book to argue why it isn’t a sin to read erotica or watch films with tasteful displays of nudity. Specifically, I hope to free men from needless guilt in looking at images of non-sexual nudity, and to establish proper parameters for such viewing. I will also answer the common arguments Christians have against looking at nudity. Please note that this book does not endorse watching hard-core (sexually explicit) XXX films.

When I became a Christian I didn’t watch films with nudity. I was afraid that I would be guilty of the sin of lust. If you abstain from looking at nudity because you believe it is sinful, I respect the boundaries you have placed in your life. I do not believe it is a sin for you to do so, but this may not be the right time in your life to exercise this freedom. We all have certain weaknesses, and if you believe that looking at nudity will have a negative effect on you, then you would be wise to maintain those boundaries so you don’t fall into sexual sin.

In discussing the morality of looking at images of nudity, I will first answer the objections of Christians who believe that it is sinful to read, write, or publish erotic poetry. If you are not persuaded by what I have to say about nudity, I hope you will be convinced that you are free before God to read and write erotic poems, assuming they are written within proper moral boundaries.

To my knowledge, there is no book on the market that argues in favour of watching films with tasteful displays of nudity. Many non-Christians will feel that this book is too conservative. Many Bible-believing Christians will feel I am too liberal, despite the fact that my arguments are based upon Biblical principles from Genesis and the Song of Solomon.

For those Christians who believe that I am too liberal, I hope you will keep an open mind, and still be able to affirm the chapters of this book that you do agree with. It is my sincere desire that everyone who reads this book, whether they are a Christian or a non-Christian, will learn something new that will add to their understanding about nudity. Although this book is written mostly from a man’s perspective, many of the principles I present about nudity can be equally applied to women.
