There’s active sinning, which takes calculation and planning like stealing or adultery. This kind can be prevented with free will. Then there’s sinning you can’t control until after you’ve already done it, like coveting.

I've never realized the Bible has two classification for sinning. I've always thought sin was a heart disease.

Mat 15:18-19 But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person. For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander.
