"A Mouse Click Away: Porn's Insidious Business Model"
"The United States is the number one producer and distributor of illegal pornography. . . . Kids are seeing content that no 12 or 13 year old is mentally, psychologically, or emotionally prepared to deal with. . . The young aren't the only victims. Adults also become intensely addicted while porn executives become incredibly wealthy. . ."

[b]God's remedy[/b] for pornography addiction:
(1) Call out to Jesus in total reliance on Him and His salvation alone to make you right with Father, The Most High God, Jehovah. Ask Him to come and live inside of you and make you His child, fit for Heaven and compatible with His Holiness. Ask Him to save you from the penalty, power and presence of your sin, all that makes you incompatible with Father and His Heaven. Present and yield your body, soul and mind to Him to be His instruments of His Righteousness today and forever. Then trust Him to work and will in you His work and will on a daily basis.
(2) Call out to Jesus to work and will in you obedience to His Word in:
***1 Cor 6: 9 ¶ Do you not know that unrighteous persons shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither sex sinners [those who have sexual intimacy with someone other than their own heterosexual marital partner - Ezek23], . . . nor those who have sex with another's woman &/or those who wrongfully leave their wives and marry another, . . nor male catamites &/or prostitutes who allow themselves to be homosexually used , nor homosexuals/pederasts , 10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. . . . 13 . . . The body is not intended for sexual immorality, but [is intended] for the Lord, and the Lord [is intended] for the body [to save, sanctify, and raise it again]. . . . 15 Do you not see and know that your bodies are members (bodily parts) of Christ (the Messiah)? Am I therefore to take the parts of Christ and make [them] parts of a sexually immoral woman? Never! Never! 16 Or do you not know and realize that when a man joins himself to a sexually immoral woman, he becomes one body with her? The two, it is written, shall become one flesh. . . . 18 Flee from having intimate sexual contact with someone who is not your own heterosexual marital partner. Any other sin which a man commits is one outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. 19 Do you not know that your body is the temple [the very sanctuary] of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received [as a Gift] from God? You are not your own, 20 You were bought with a price [purchased with a preciousness and paid for, made His own]. So then, honor God and bring glory to Him in your body. 7: 1* ¶ But concerning the things of which you have written to me: It is good for a male not to continue -keep on - touching a woman; 2 but because of [and to avoid] sexual immorality each man should be [sexually] having his own<1438> woman, and each woman should be [sexually] having her own<2398> man.
***Prov. 5:18 Your fountain/genital should be blessed; and rejoice and be glad with the wife of your youth. 19 . . . her breasts should satisfy/intoxicate/saturate you at all times; you should be intoxicated continually with her [affectionate] loving. [See Bible's Song of Solomon]
***Eccles 9:9 Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this vainly fleeting life that God has given you [in your body] under the sun— all your vainly fleeting days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun.
***1Cor 7:3 The husband should be rendering unto the wife [the] kindness, intimate marital duty, benevolence and good will <Strong's 2133> [that is] due, owed and obligated <Strong's 3784> ; and likewise also the wife [should be rendering the kindness, intimate marital duty, benevolence and good will that is due, owed and obligated] unto the husband. 4. The woman doesn't have [sexual] authority over her own body, but the husband [does]; in like manner also the man doesn't have [sexual] authority over his own body, but the woman [does]. 5 Do not be denying each other [sexually], unless, it may be, by consent for a time, that you may devote yourselves to fasting and prayer, and again be conjugally cohabiting [sexually reuniting], that Satan might not tempt you because of your failure to control yourself. 6and this I say by way of concession -- not of command, 7 for I wish all men to be even as I myself [am]; but each has his own gift of God, one indeed thus, and one thus. 8To the unmarried and the widows [5503 = women bereft of a husand] I say that it is good for them to remain single as I am. 9 But if they are not [Strong's 3756] continuing to restrain themselves [by abstaining from sex sin (Strong's 1467) ], they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn [with desire]. 10 I command the married —not I, but the Lord—a [believing] wife is not to leave, depart or separate from [Strong's 5563] her [believing] husband. 11 But if she does leave, depart, and/or separate [Strong's 5563], she must remain unmarried<Strong's 22> or be reconciled to her husband—and a [believing] husband/man should not forsake, lay aside, leave, put (send) away and/or divorce [Strongs 863] his wife/woman. . . . 39 A [saved] wife is bound to her [saved] husband by law as long as he lives. If the husband dies, she is free to be married to whom she will, only [provided that he too is] in the Lord. 12 But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has an unbelieving wife/woman, and she is willing [consents, would like] to continue on occupying a house, residing , cohabiting and/or dwelling [Strong's 3611]> with him, he must not forsake, lay aside, leave, put (send) away, and/or remit [Strong's 863] her. 13 Also, if any woman has an unbelieving husband/man, and he is willing [consents, would like] to keep on occupying a house, residing , cohabiting and/or dwelling [3611] with her, she must not forsake, lay aside, leave, put (send) away, and/or remit [Strongs 863] her husband/man [But if she does leave, depart, and/or separate [Strong's 5563 1Cor7:11, she must remain unmarried or be reconciled to her unsaved husband who still wants to live/house with her, verse 11]. . . .15 But if the unbeliever leaves, departs and/or separates himself [Strong's 5563], he should go away/depart/separate/leave, [he should separate, make the separation]. A brother or a sister is not [morally, maritally] bound [like a slave] in such cases [in the Kingdom of God]. God has called you to peace. . . . 17 However, each one must live his life in the situation the Lord assigned when God called him. This is what I command in all the churches. . . 20 After God calls him, everyone should remain in the station or condition of life in which the summons [of God] found him. [if not under command to marry, see v. 2,9] . . . 24 Brethren, each one is to remain with God in that condition in which he was called [by God, if not under command to marry, see v. 2,9] . . . . .. . 27 Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be loosed. Are you loosed from a wife? Do not seek a wife [if not under command to marry, see v. 2,9]. . . . 39 A [believing] wife is bound to her [believing] husband by [God's] Law as long as he lives. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to anyone she wants—only in the Lord.
Father used prayer and fasting to deliver me from my porn addiction. With prayer and fasting if addicted, prayerfully read the following:
