Caroline:
There is one metaphor in Genesis when God warned Cain that "if you do not do

what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but 
you must master it." Gen 4:7
There is another metaphor in Romans when Paul wrote: "..sin sprang to life 
and I died...For sin seizing the opportunity, deceived me and... put me to 
death." Rom 7
It almost seems as if sin has a life and a will of it's own. I guess it's 
the difference between cleaning cat fur off the furniture and washing the 
cat itself. In one situation, you have to keep your wits about you.
