Sometimes we sin by accident. It's not that we wanted to or planned it. It just happened and is instantly regretted. Of course, regret must be couple with repentance.
It's not the same as scheming to cheat on my taxes, planning the next excursion with your extramarital lover, etc. Those things take forethought and planning. It's what the Bible describes as "practicing" sin. |
