the Resident Pastor, Shepherd House Assembly International, Jos has said that pornography and masturbation could affect the brain and impede productivity. “Those twin evils could hurt the brain and impede productivity because of the cumulative negative effects of addiction to them,” he stated on Sunday in Jos, during a sermon at the Youth Conference of the Church. In the sermon titled: ‘Dealing with Forces of Addiction’, he noted that a high percentage of youths suffer addiction mostly to pornography and masturbation. “ Research has shown that more than 50 per cent of youths are addicted to pornography, while 60 to 90 per cent of adolescent boys and 40 per cent of adolescent girls are addicted to masturbation. “ These addictions are sins against nature; the right hemisphere of the brain functions in facilitating creativity and inventions and a portion of the brain called ‘cingulate codex, is responsible for moral and ethical decisions. “ So, when you feed your brain with masturbation and pornographic materials, it impedes your productivity and affects the efficiency of your brain which is designed to perform the task of creativity and invention,’’ he explained. Ojoh said that the remedy to such addictions was acknowledging that addicts could not fight the battle of emancipation alone, and therefore required divine intervention to see them through. “ Addicts of masturbation must admit that they cannot overcome their battles alone. They must accept that it is only possible with the divine intervention of God. “It is important you avoid anything that triggers such addictions; these are things that you see and read that pollute your mind towards it like movies, magazines and places “ You must renew your mind and feed it with the word of God to fight addictive materials that have occupied the space of your mind. “Addicts should also seek counsel from people of integrity, who will counsel them and monitor them through their recovery process,’’ he said. He said that addictions could also enslave a man, put him in bondage and regulate the lifestyle of the affected person or persons, which could subjugate potentialities. The clergy, who defined addiction as a repeated habit which becomes a lifestyle, mentioned other negative addictions to include the internet, food, sex, alcohol, amongst others. The youth conference featured comedies, drama plays and special renditions from the Choir.
the Resident Pastor,
Shepherd House Assembly International, Jos has said that pornography and
masturbation could affect the brain and impede productivity.
“Those twin evils could hurt the brain and impede productivity because
of the cumulative negative effects of addiction to them,” he stated on
Sunday in Jos, during a sermon at the Youth Conference of the Church.
In the sermon titled: ‘Dealing with Forces of Addiction’, he noted that a
high percentage of youths suffer addiction mostly to pornography and
masturbation.
“ Research has shown that more than 50 per cent of youths are addicted
to pornography, while 60 to 90 per cent of adolescent boys and 40 per
cent of adolescent girls are addicted to masturbation.
“ These addictions are sins against nature; the right hemisphere of the
brain functions in facilitating creativity and inventions and a portion
of the brain called ‘cingulate codex, is responsible for moral and
ethical decisions.
“ So, when you feed your brain with masturbation and pornographic
materials, it impedes your productivity and affects the efficiency of
your brain which is designed to perform the task of creativity and
invention,’’ he explained.
Ojoh said that the remedy to such addictions was acknowledging that
addicts could not fight the battle of emancipation alone, and therefore
required divine intervention to see them through.
“ Addicts of masturbation must admit that they cannot overcome their
battles alone. They must accept that it is only possible with the divine
intervention of God.
“It is important you avoid anything that triggers such addictions; these
are things that you see and read that pollute your mind towards it like
movies, magazines and places
“ You must renew your mind and feed it with the word of God to fight
addictive materials that have occupied the space of your mind.
“Addicts should also seek counsel from people of integrity, who will
counsel them and monitor them through their recovery process,’’ he said.
He said that addictions could also enslave a man, put him in bondage and
regulate the lifestyle of the affected person or persons, which could
subjugate potentialities.
The clergy, who defined addiction as a repeated habit which becomes a
lifestyle, mentioned other negative addictions to include the internet,
food, sex, alcohol, amongst others.

renditions from the Choir.
