QUESTION 2

2. According to Proverbs 8:35–36

About the person who finds wisdom:

The Bible says, "For whoever finds me finds life and obtains favor from the Lord." Proverbs 8:35

Lesson: Finding wisdom means finding life itself, God’s life, purpose, and His approval and blessings.

About the one who sins against wisdom:

The Bible says, "but he who sins against me wrongs his own soul; all those who hate me love death." Proverbs 8:36

Lesson: Rejecting wisdom is self-destructive. It leads to spiritual damage and ultimately to death, because to hate wisdom is to choose a path away from God who is the source of life.
