I disagree, removing things can often times solve a person's problem. Maybe not the ultimate problem, but you let me know when you have that one nailed down tight.
Deeper issue to lust? It's called sin! It's called flesh! Not going to the counsel of the wicked, standing in the way of sinners, hanging out in the tents of the harlot, all of those will keep one from falling. Like any safeguard -- from a helmet to a bullet-proof vest, they only guarantee a form of protection. You aren't invincible.
How does one struggling with pornography handle the deeper issue? Would you really suggest they not change up their routine and habits?
Your response is interesting to me. You seem to think people can have perfect victory in the Spirit over something like, let's just say, lust. Really, NOW? I know you're a man, so let's really think about that one a minute.
How would you counsel a young man coming to you with sex and porn addictions?
