God has decided the rules of life, whereby you don't trespass on anybody else's rights, and sin is something that upsets the balance of things. There are three types of sin: sin against yourself; sin against other people; and sin against God. People often sin against themselves and others and misbehave with God, too.
Every painful consequence of sin is a part of the punishment meted out for sin.

Our enemy is not only upon us, as it was with Samson, but it is also in us.
