Benefits Of Joining The Gang – Proverbs 1:11-14

Benefits Of Joining The Gang
Proverbs 1:11-14 (NIV)

11 If they say, “Come along with us;
let’s lie in wait for innocent blood,
let’s ambush some harmless soul;

12 let’s swallow them alive, like the grave,
and whole, like those who go down to the pit;

13 we will get all sorts of valuable things
and fill our houses with plunder;

14 cast lots with us;
we will all share the loot”—

Proverbs Club Commentary

Gangs are getting more popular as I age.
Yousta was, joining a gang was criminal.
Now, it is accepted in many neighborhoods.
Gangs bring only lawlessness and heartbreak.
