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

Passage: John 6:35*

Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty"

Question

1. What do Jesus' words mean?

 

2. How might these words apply to our battles with Web porn?

 

Practical help

While Jesus words may sound familiar, the implications are downright revolutionary. They so incensed his first-century listeners that they threatened to kill him. If we merely yawn and move on, we miss the point.

The point is this: Christ claims to provide sustenance for our deepest longings. If that doesn't sound incredible, imagine what would happen if everyone took him at his word: No more kleptomaniacs. No more workaholics. And no more Web porn.

Ask Jesus to back up his words. Ask him to so satisfy your hunger that you no longer crave pornographic sustenance. He will keep his promise.
