Does god know what it's like to feel lust?
If He does, God is a sinful God. If he doesn't, He isn't an all knowing God.

I don't see how God is sinful because he's know lust. That doesn't make sense to me. I know what murder is, but I didn't sin for knowing it.

The three main points to the law are:
lust of the eyes
lust of the flesh
the pride of life
And Satan tempted Jesus in all three of these points after he had fasted for forty days and nights and was very weak
And Jesus prevailed through faith
So temptations were placed before him but he did not succumb to them
He never lusted is what I am saying
Lust is sin
Jesus Christ - God incarnate - never sinned
Hbr 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin.
If Jesus has ever sinned once - lust for example - then God would have disqualified him from his role as Saviour

He knows what it's like to be tempted to lust - the Bible tells us Jesus was tempted in all ways the way we are, but was still without any sin.
You don't have to be addicted to porn to know what it is, and why it should be avoided.

Just like the maker of an automobile would know the car inside and out, God created humans with sexual organs and to have feelings. Therefore, he would know what his creations would feel.

Jesus was tempted on earth with all the things that we are, but he didn't feed into the temptation because God IS perfect and all-knowing ;)

He created that emotion... he wanted us to go forth and populate the earth.
He also told us that sex is lawful within the sanctity of MARRIAGE.
It's not lust that's sinful, it's premarital or extramarital sex.

When God was on earth as Jesus He was tempted in everyway like we are but He was without sin.He never gave in to it.

No, lust is sexual in nature, and God has no sex.
