That’s not true according to Scripture. Didn’t Christ say that lusting in one’s heart is a sin? So action isn’t necessary for sin to take place. Lustful thoughts would still need to be repented of.

What did He mean by "Lusting in one's heart"? If I see a girl and notice she's attractive, have I lusted? Or does it mean more like fantasizing about bedding her?
