Sin has a way that blinds us. Without a conscientious effort to recognize sin, we become insensitive to it. Once that happens, our spirituality suffers tremendously. We know truth but fear man more than God, and thus fail to act on what we know to be true. Think about it, when you get high on a drug, are you in your right mind? Of course not. So when a man dives into sin, he can count on one thing: he will only hurt himself, with the likelihood of dragging others down with him. And the saddest part is that he won’t realize it until it’s too late. Sin has this effect, it’s consistent with its outcome.
24 If you assist a thief, you only hurt yourself. You are sworn to tell the truth, but you dare not testify.
Proverbs 29:24
