Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Galatians 6:7-8

Yes there are -
Weather patterns, animal reproduction, agriculture, forests, oceans—all of these things are governed by physical laws, the laws of chemistry, physics, biology and so on.
All of these laws were designed by God when He created this Earth
(Genesis 1).
God is the mastermind behind the successful and healthy operation of planet Earth. He is the author of its physical laws. In the first chapter of Romans, the Apostle Paul teaches that God’s creative abilities are evident in the magnificent and intricate physical creation that is this Earth
(Romans 1:19-20).
Environmental blessings and success come from obedience and a willingness to live within and respect the physical laws that govern our planet.
To sin means to miss the mark. Human beings have indeed missed the mark in a number of ways. But the "sins" - the missing the mark
contributes to (penalties) or repurcussions that occur on earth as a result of mankinds mishandling, and abuse of God's laws - (commandments) to be good stewards and to take proper care - live within and respect the physical laws that govern our planet.

Sin will ravage your body and soul. The penece for sin, is the pains of life. Any penalty of what you do. Remember if it weren't for origional sin, we would have no aches and pains, and joy would be our only emotion.

Yes its called "Suffering Consequences" Although God forgives and forgets your sins (upon request) EXAMPLE: If you steal something, and get caught, you will be punished by the court system. God's mercy will forgive you, but you'll still do the time for the crime.

I think there are consequences to everything we do whether good or bad. I think these penalties or rewards are self-induced. We reap what we sow, meaning if we do bad things then bad things will happen to us and if we do good things good will come back to us.

We only have to look in the Bible to see that collective sin does bring a chastisement from God.

Biblically speaking, yes. David had to choose between 3 punishments after he had slept with his friends wife and had Uriah the Hittite(the husband of the woman) killed. God couldn't call Himself a father unless he corrected us for our wrongdoings. David said "Your rod, your staff, they comfort me..." These are references to a sheephearders tools that fight off wolves and keep "the sheep" in line! Also God said "of those I love, I correct." I hope this helps you.

Real sins punish the sinner themselves, even if the sinner doesn't realize it.
