Today's Scriptural lesson comes from the Book of Onan

http://notthebible.8m.com/b4.htm

AND when the Lord saw that Onan heeded not the words of her wherein he should place his seed, the Lord determined to slay Onan, as an example to His people and to stop the terrible waste of seed. Yet Onan repented not; and even at the moment of his death, he grasped his manliness, and crying out with a great voice, said "I'm coming God! Oh God, I'm coming!"

AND HE SPILLED HIS SEED UPON THE GROUND!
