Nocturnal emissions as husband

[malio81]

Wife and me are use NFP. We can have sex olny once or twice at month. So I experience nocturnal emissions sometimes. Is it a sin?

How do figure involuntary things are sinful?
Talk to your priest. He’s dealt with this type of question many times.

 

[malio81]

Thanks. Because… During dreams, I have sexual images.

We are not culpable for our dreams. If you were to use porn or something like that, that would be different. So long as you are not actively doing or seeking anything immoral, you are not responsible.

Nocturnal emissions/Wet dreams Moral Theology

Do nocturnal emissions/wet dreams cause us to fall into mortal sin?

 

[AdamP88]

Of course not. It happens to all men from time to time. Especially if you have to abstain for a long while. It’s the body’s way of getting rid of excess semen. Don’t worry about it.

No. Sin must be something knowingly chosen. Events in your sleep are not such.
