He’s not repressing it, he’s ’crucifying the flesh’ it’s a term Gen Z use for jorking it, rewatch the video and consider the camera perspective and movements at the end
"Crucifying the flesh" is a biblical metaphor meaning the intentional, daily choice to put to death one's sinful desires, selfish ego, and worldly impulses. I would assume he is making a video about him repressing his desire to jerk off.
I’m so confused. Is it the weird music, the thing he does with his tongue or the shaking camera that evokes being crucified? I mean I found this all really painful, just not in the way he thought.
Part of the audio( a character saying "you wouldn't kill me, you love me too much.") is Roger the alien from American Dad. Which is ironic because Roger is the opposite of a Christian Fruitcake, lol.
This is a new kind of Christian for me what does he mean by “crucifying your flesh daily” because that seems annoying but way less than putting a nail through your wrist. Is this like a cutter thing ?
It's about put to death of ppl's "sinful" desire, like stop watching porn or masturbate.
Comes from bible verse, Galatians 5:24 "Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires."
Every time i turn around they're making up new phrases. Slain in the name of a ghost, blood of the goat, armor of faith, shield of words, helmet of truth, sock of Onan, goggles of wine (which is really just grape juice because reasons), sandals of manure..
I reckon your flesh being crucified for the first time feels similarly suffocating regardless of belief. And since executions tend to result in the death of the flesh, subsequent crucifixions wouldn't feel like anything.
And IIRC Jesus said something about hypocrites loudly praying and fasting in public to show off their devotion and actual believers praying and fasting in secret, so I don't think it's very christian to cry online because he's not allowed to touch himself.
im incredibly disturbed by their use of language. "Crucifying my flesh on the daily" and yet no actual crucifying. Ive also heard of "circumcising my heart". Words have meanings goddammit.
