Is masturbation a sin?

Q # 002
If a pastor answering this question publicly concerns you, please consider with love and patience the people who may be too ashamed to ask privately. Consider that someone who may watch this video may not have a trustworthy friend or family member to teach them on this topic, but a society that is eager to give its input without prompting. While maybe you don't need this question answered in your life, nobody should be ashamed to seek the truth of Scripture, no matter how embarrassing the topic.
