Introduction

Dealers on sex toys rake in billions of dollars every year. Their products are so diversified and today are available in every part of the world. Now, it looks like this business of artificially or technologically stimulating and satisfying sexual desires is in vogue. The single, married, old, young today patronize sex toy shops and the manufactures, wisely too, are steadily churning out more alluring and sophisticated ones. It seems like there will be no end to their innovative ingenuity to inventing these new instruments of sexual pleasure. Today some of these toys act and behave exactly like opposite sex partners in the act. True. But here, we want to look at the origin, intentions and effects of these toys on the users, especially the spiritual and psychological implications.

Now, is sex toy in the original plan of God? And since sexual relationship is a physical, emotional and spiritual connection, does it have any spiritual and emotional side effect? First, sex toys were not in the original plan of God. All we will need to sexually satisfy our partners have been put in place. Yes. But Satan introduced these toys, idols (like all other sexual sins: homosexuality, anal sex, lesbianism, sex with demons, masturbation, etc) to corrupt and divert man's obedience to God's word and wish. The bible said that those who crave for this kind of sinful pleasure outside the will of God are dead. True. Walking corpses! Not all pleasurable practices are permitted. We must seek to please God before our own pleasure. Yes, God wants us to enjoy life, but it must be within the limits of His divine intentions and provisions. Sex toys were invented by demons and are totally against the word of God and the spiritual well-being of man. It's is an instrument of for the worship sex demons and Satan.

Using these instruments, masturbation and all other forms of sexual immorality as we earlier mentioned automatically opens one up to demonic possessions. You cannot use these toys without contacting the spirits behind them. It is not possible. It's like worshiping an idol. There is always a demon spirit behind an idol. Those stones, woods, objects, animals represent spirit beings. That’s where they derive their powers. So, every sex toy and sexual immorality has a demonic spirit behind it. And this is why it is always very difficult to leave such acts or be free from bondage while practicing them. The bible also made it very clear that the persons that practice idolatry or adultery become spiritually bonded. Will they ever tell you their encounters with those sex demons that visit them regularly in their dreams, and also those strange happenings around them, especially in their relationships? When next you are tempted to indulge in this act, please remember to see the demon standing behind that toy. We will elaborate more on all these. Read on.

Chapter One

How it all started

Sex toys have a long history that started with the use of carved objects that represented the penis. The ancient Roman, Greek, Chinese, Asian, Indian had these objects carved out of stones, iron, gold, wood and other materials that were used to drive masturbation. Some of them (like the Greek) worshiped of sex gods and goddesses; where these objects were displayed, used and other sexual immoral acts were also extensively promoted, including sex with demons and spirits. So, we can rightly say that the foundation of sex toys was that of the desire for 'unlimited' pleasure and the worship of demonic gods. This invention metamorphosed into other objects and in the 20th century we saw the first electric vibrator invented. Since then, it has been a deluge of these manual and later sophisticated instruments of sexual pleasure. Some of them winking and talking! Wow!

Yes, representations of the penis have been around for almost as long as there have been penises. The first known dildo recovered by palaeontologists dates to the Palaeolithic era. Made of siltstone and polished to a high gloss. The dildos were made of carved stone or bone.

To the Greeks and Romans, they were polytheists who worshiped a variation of Dionysus, god of wine and fertility, also called Bacchus or Liber. The worship of the sex god included parades through the streets, where giant phalluses were raised up like protest signs. At the end of a marital fertility parade, a maiden would come forth and crown the religious phallus with a wreath of flowers. The Greeks are responsible for the first use of leather or animal intestine to cover a carved penis, adding a more natural feel and a complexity of texture.

The Chinese were also considered great innovators in female masturbation. Back in the day, wealthy Chinese men were apt to have too many wives for them to service regularly. It was thought that providing penis substitutes would keep these wives faithful and prevent them from resorting to lesbianism. Ancient Chinese dildos have been discovered that were cast of bronze and other metals. Some of these were hollow and allowed liquid to be released at the appropriate time.

India and Persia were not left out. Dildos are discussed as being made from gold or silver, or intricately carved and inlaid ivory.

The use of dildos remained more or less the same for a long portion of history. Some cultures didn't create dildos at all, preferring more natural items like gourds, plantains or unripe bananas. In fact, the word dildo comes from the Italian "diletto,"meaning "delight."

Chapter Two

What was His plan?

Now, it is very important to look back at the beginning of creation to see the original intention of God concerning man and sex. This is very critical because to understand a structure or its functions, you must go back to the root and the intentions of the manufacturer/builder. True.

At creation, God made man after He had put every other thing in place. Now, man was lonely because he was totally different from all the creation. He could not find any to relate with and God had not also fully exhausted His intentions of recovering, recreation and populating the earth. So, he continued by finding solution to the situation. Let’s read from the genesis account before we continue:

“And the Lord God said, ‘it is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a companion who will help him!. So the Lord God formed from the soil every kind of animal and bird. He brought them to Adam to see what he would call them, and Adam chose a name for each one. He gave names to all the livestock’s, birds, and wild animals. But still there was no companion suitable for him. So the Lord God caused Adam to fall into a deep sleep. He took one of Adam’s ribs and closed up the place from which he had taken it. Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib and brought her to Adam.

‘At last! Adam exclaimed, ‘she is part of my own flesh and bone! She will be called ‘woman’ because she was taken out of a man. This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. Now, although Adam and his wife were both naked, neither of them felt any shame’.

Gen. 2:18

“So God created people in his own image: God patterned them after himself; male and female he created them. God blessed them and told them, ‘multiply and fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters over the fish...’

Gen. 1:28

The purpose of making man and further making them male and female with distinct and well-fitted sex organs is well established here. First, God invented somebody to take care of the creation, He made man. And when He saw that man was lonely and could not find fulfilment and relationship with all the creation; He made a woman from the body of the man. Note here, that he did not make another man, but a woman, a female with all the physical, sexual, mental, psychological and spiritual features that made her different. And it was made so because she had a specific and special role to play in creation - she was to help the man, be his companion, a mate, a partner, a wife, mother of his offspring, comforter etc. she was to fully satisfy the man and remedy his loneliness. True. A woman is indeed a wonderful creation!

So what toy, object, sex doll can play all these roles in a man’s life? Tell me. Or what sex toy can play same role in a woman’s life. None! God’s works are always purposeful and so any attempt by the enemy to substitute it will always showcase foolishness and unworthiness. Or you can tell me how toys or objects could satisfy all the pure divine intentions of making and bring a woman and man together in marriage.

And sex...

Yes, sex was a very critical thinking in the union and that was why God fully, deliberately equipped the man and the woman with all their sex, reproduction organs, hormones, desires and instincts. He also made the sexual relationship between them pleasurable, very pleasurable. But sex and pleasure were not to be ends in themselves. They were infused in the plan to facilitate higher purposes which were companionship and procreation. Or you can imagine procreation without sex or even sex without pleasure. Sure, it would have been terrible. Maybe man would have been vomiting his kind through the mouth or die to allow the offspring break and crawl out of his stomach like some of the snakes do. Don’t laugh.

So, to generate pleasure or maximum satisfaction is not a cogent reason to involve sex toys and tools. The pleasure is good but must be derived from the natural, original way that God intended it. The pleasure was to entice you to sex and sex was to facilitate intimacy and procreation. And procreation was to reproduce repopulate and replenish the earth. This is the original will of God and anything short of this anti-God, ungodly and satanic.

Bonding in relationship

Now there is bonding in the relationship between a man and a woman (husband and wife). It is physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual. And that is why from the beginning it was made clear that both will leave their parents and be joined together as one. In fact, when God looks at the husband and wife, He sees them as one. True. Divine arithmetic - one plus one equals to one! One in purpose, one in creation, one in unity, one in existence, one in result, one in reproduction, one in spirit and that is why when they meet the result is also one - an offspring(s) that share both the man’s and the woman’s DNA - genes, traits, characters, mannerisms, etc. Great!
