Sins and Consequences
We are often punished by our sins in addition to being punished for them because all sins have consequences. In Isaiah 59:1–15, the Lord told Israel their sins and explained that as long as they continued in sin He could not help them; they must continue to experience the consequences of those sins. On the other hand, in verses 16–21, the Lord spoke about the help He will give the righteous.
