Definition of Lust

1 Thessalonians 4:5. The simple definition of lust is having a self-absorbed desire for an object, person, or experience. When we are in lust, we place the object of our desire above all things in our lives. From a Christian perspective lust is bad because we are putting the object of our lust above God. When we are in lust, we have no thought of God and do not know Him (1 Thessalonians 4:4-5, "That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour; Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:").

1 THESSALONIANS BIBLE SCRIPTURE: 1 Thessalonians 4:5, "Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:"
