I think we don't have a true understanding of exactly what lust is.  God created each of us as sexual beings.  We are physically attracted to the opposite sex.  If we were not, I don't think we would be able to follow His command to "be fruitful and multiply",  Being sexually attracted to the opposite sex is NOT lust, though.  This God given sexual attraction BECOMES lust when we develop within our hearts a desire to engage in inappropriate sexual contact.  \n\nIf each person would view the opposite sex with respect and honor and have within our hearts the desire to do what is best for ourselves and the other person then we would be able to treat each other in a holy and wholesome manner.  So it is entirely possible to date and search for a mate and at the same time not lust after that individual but treat them in a holy and set apart manner.

Sin is a sin is a sin.  I think there are some sins that are greater than others, but only in the minds and opinions of man (a white lie is not as great as murder.)  Man differentiates between sin, not God.

well according to everyone--- god is everything... god created everything... but they tend to add the word good after the word everything... but some people call sin and lust a good feeling... but as much as I think he is... he probably just tags things that are lustful and sinful. But it's awful mean of him to tempt us into sins and lustful acts.\n\n"Lead me not to temptation, I can find it myself."

Lust is a carnal desire, a fleshly thing, it fades with nuturing, satisfaction complete, move on.\n\nLove is more spiritual, not of the flesh, but of the mind, and it flourishes with nuturing!

The beast (satan/devil/SIN) is the most beautiful thing to the world.\n\n-!NOTICE!-\nThe world is full of sinful men.  The beast appeas beautiful to them because sin is so attractive to men.\n\nIn actuality, the beast is the ugliest thing to ever walk the Earth.

Time will usually tell...lust is when you look at someone and all you can think of is having sex with them...love is looking at someone and seeing yourself walking in the park...having childres...dinners at the inlaws...and caring more for that person than you do for yourself...their needs outweigh yours...you would want to be with that person even if you couldnt have sex.

There are some close seconds, but number one is being good.\n\nI don't know why. I thought it was because of all the wonderful things I could ultimately have, like being close to God, becoming a huge radiant being, having love and connection with all beings, and similar ambitions.\n\nBut, I realized the other day that if I had to deliberately wrong someone to better my own situation worldly or spiritually, I wouldn't do it, regardless of God's will. I fear that it's pride, and I wonder if it's something better than my selfish mind can grasp. I don't know.\n\nWould you tell us what your most important is?

:{\nI can't help but wonder if you are Mormon.\n\nWhat about other sins that are outlawed?  Pedophilia, Prostitution, Bestiality\nAre any of those the heavy hand of the state trying to control or prevent those people from doing what they willing choose to do.

Who ever said any kind of sect is better than the other. Beauty is in the eyes of the Beholder. In my opinion, all sects put some kind of shackles on you, without realizing it

well technically lust is a subset of Love after u remove sacrifice and caring from love. So i would say yes it is important to keep the wild side in the relation burning.

Lust is a crush, plain and simple..  love is something almost unexplainable, difficult to describe.. the need to be with someone forever and not being able to picture your life with out that person in it..   Is your marriage in trouble? only u know, is it something u can keep in your mind, or something u want to act on, if its something u want to act on, YEP its in trouble.. cause if you really loved your husband.. u'd never even contimplate actually cheating on him, but if its just the flattery of another guy flirting with you, and just likeing the attention, that human nature what person doesnt want to feel that kind of attention.. so its in your court on whether its in trouble.. and how would u feel if the shoe were on the other foot and your husband was feeling this way about another woman????? ..

Lust is what happens before love. Its the chemistry and the connection between two people. It's the raw passion, the sheer desire to be near each other, to kiss, to have sex, to touch each other.\nLust is powerful and physical... it can eventually develop into love, but lust comes first.
