Sin is addictive. That is, any sin one "tries" is likely to be repeated. Unless your conscience is strong enough to make you regret it afterwards, the rewards you perceive can overpower your dedication to goodness.

'''Sin is addictive'''. That is, any sin one "tries" is likely to be repeated. Unless your conscience is strong enough to make you regret it afterwards, the rewards you perceive can overpower your dedication to goodness.
The saying, "Try it, you'll like it." is especially bad. If Satan is a snake, then "trying out" sinful behavior is playing with baby snakes. The Bible calls Satan an "ancient serpent" and "a liar ... from the beginning".
