    Appositive refers to a word or a noun that is followed by another phrase or noun which identifies or rename the noun or word. In other words, it refers to the literary device which appears after or before a noun phrase or noun, used with a comma.

    Therefore, the appositive in the following sentence is "that sin will find you out." as it renames the abstract noun 'father's advice.'
