This "art" is sinful?

I mentioned a time or 2 about how, if the devil can't "rope someone in" with an obvious statement to do something , he might "modify" it, mislead the person into thinking that if done in "this way", then it's alright.One thing I have in mind,modeling.Like, maybe a lot of those models would look down on pornography,yet they pose at least topless, and some completely naked,or practically .And then get around it by saying it's "art" when done that way.Well, wait a minute.A statue is naked , but nobody gets turned on by statue.But say, a young "lady" showing her stuff{also on the internet,for all to see,} and stirring up mens passions,also, she could be engaged, and she's showing her body in that fashion to any man who sees it, I, personally, from a Christian viewpoint, think it's a little less innocent than "art'.But again, my point, here's how the devil ropes them__Well, it's not like porn, we're "not doing anything."{Also, a lot of them go on to pose for Playboy.{I'm sure the men who look at Playboy centerfolds don't do it with the intent of looking at "art". So, just because modeling is not pornography, is it still a form of sin?I would say so.Could you picture a Christian woman posing 3/4 naked, for all to see?I would say it's sin, and you say?

All you have to do when the devil wants to rope you around with porn or with anything else, call on the Lord. Cast the devil out of your house, of your heart and mind in the name of Jesus. As soon as he hears Jesus name, he will flee from you and you will be delivered from His hands. The devil want us all depressed, sad, alone and full of worry. Where are we gona end up when we die? What will happen to us when we are gone?

 

[Brother James]

It is sin to present our naked bodies to anyone other than our wives or our husbands. It is sin to look on others nudity. It is a shame that we search for something online and pornographic info and nude pictures pop up and distract us. In Jesus pornographic thoughts leave me! In Jesus lusful thoughts leave me! In Jesus keep pornographic materials from my computer! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

While we live in bodies that lust after sin we can conform our bodies lust into desires for righteousness, for Christ and for our brethren in and for Jesus by not and refusing to think for ourselves putting off our old man. We pray for individuals who make such things and watch such things to be delivered and saved and live for Jesus and or return to Jesus the one that made them in Jesus! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!

This topic is complicated. From business pointment of view, it is selling a product not sex. A beautiful woman draws attention. Sex sells. From Christian life point of view, it is tempting and stimulating sexual desires at different levels. A born again Christian would not participate if he/she chooses to live according to the word of God. To most people in the business of advertising it is just business as usual. I'm not compromising.

I agree with everyone here. But i got a question, if showing your body to others is a sin, what is then bathing on the beach or advertising a bathing suit? Any ideas?

Well, it depends .If it's a woman with one of those thong bathing suits...

 

[natasha2]

Aha, then men are not turned on by normal bathing suits? What if the woman, has very sensual curves and big parts of the body and is in the normal bathing suit?

Well, that's true.I guess that 's the kind of question you need wisdom about,like to pray for wisdom."For now we see things darkly"I would think the woman is innocent if she didn't have INTENT to do anything but sunbathe..I wouldn't put it in a class with modeling, where they're 3/4 naked,,and posing in a certain sensual way.

Yes, i agree, some women are acting in seducing way....sometimes even unknowingly...
Modelling naked or half naked is unnecessary, and it is a sin because it produces lust in people. Thaths right. Some of those models end up in pornography, or the other way around. Thats right.
But it just crossed my mind. You cannot change the world. It is suppose to wake up sin in you. But if you are in Christ, you are clothed in the Holy spirit and in righteousness of God and you will be protected at least to react to any seduction/sin of this world. We have to be changing agents in this world. And seductions of this world have the role to make you wiser and stronger in the end. If this world wouldnt be sinfull, we would have no job? And we would all be Holy and righteous and perfect, right? But, we as the agents of changes, we shine the light of Jesus in this world and deferr from the works of darkness, showing people the way out. Jesus is the way, the truth and the light. Amen!!
Practicaly this is the answer to your first question, right?

Keep your life clean before the Lord. Your mind so pure and holy. Jesus will bless your life as your obey His word. Be ye holy just as my Father which is in heaven, is holy.
