If we practice sin, sin betrays us, instead, wisdom is faithful, and never plays against us. The truly intelligent man submits his decisions to wisdom, because wisdom preserves life.
Sin is a dangerous path, because with sin the unforeseen, the famous stumbling rocks, appear easily, and we never know what it is picked up with a wrong action: "For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind." Hosea 8:7. Our actions have progressive consequences. That is why it is metaphorically said that he who sins walks in the dark, but he who lives righteously walks in the light of day: "But anyone who hates a brother or sister is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness. They do not know where they are going, because the darkness has blinded them" 1 John 2:11.
And sin contains other dangers, because when sin becomes a habit, our sins affect the people with whom we have an intimate coexistence, hence the famous crimes of passion. The people with whom we live closely are either our best friends or our worst enemies, because they are the people who know us best, in this, there is no middle ground. That is why the Book of Proverbs teaches us why wisdom is so necessary and useful with an interesting saying, ultimately there is never peace for sinners: "For the LORD'S curse is on the house of the wicked, but he blesses the home of the righteous" Proverbs 3:33.
The righteous life is a blessing for us and for others, and its results in sight: "But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law"; Galatians 5:21-23.
There are no values, there are no commandments, what there is in the reality of the daily life, are ways of discerning, of choosing, and we have to choose between two paths, we sin or we live righteously, and as a consequence, there are two types of harvest.
