Idol worshippers cut themselves in 1 Kings 18:

28 So they shouted louder and slashed themselves with swords and spears, as was their custom, until their blood flowed.
A demonized man cut himself in Mark 5:

5 Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always crying out and cutting himself with stones.
Acts 16:

28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.”
Self-harming does not glorify God.

Oh, that kind of "self justification"

Yeah so pleasuring yourself is sinful behavior and it is abusing your body which is supposed to be the temple of the Holy Ghost.

The Lord would appreciate it if you'd not be doin that kinda thang. View attachment 39122
Nah nahhh, I talkin' about self justification; the type that says, I'm right, you're wrong!
