Welcome to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand strong in the face of sexual temptation.

Passage: Luke 6:39*

And He also spoke a parable to them: "A blind man cannot guide a blind man, can he? Will they not both fall into a pit?

Question

Who's lead do you follow when it comes to sexuality and sexual urges?

 

Practical help

If you've got good eyesight then you'll be able to see the things around you with clarity, that is if conditions exist for good visibility.

If you've got good insight then you'll be able to understand which of your activities has a clear benefit to you and which don't -- that is if the source of your insight can truly discriminate between benefit and harm.

Jesus sometimes wakes us up with no brainer kinds of parables as in verse 39 above. He expects us to apply the principles to foggy situations. In the case of a porn struggle you may be the blind leader and the blind follower as well. Is it time to realize that you've both fallen into a pit?

Evaluate the net benefit of porn and ask yourself if the fun is worth the pit experience. If you decide not then it's time to start following someone else. You might try Jesus. Stay tuned to the eXXit site for clearer vision.
