GOD STILL HAS ME ON THIS:
Crab mentality, refer to as crabs in the bucket, it’s a way of thinking. The crab thought as sometimes humans do "if I can't have it, neither should you." The metaphor refers to a pot of crabs. The crabs could easily escape from the pot, but instead, they grab at each other in a useless "king of the hill" competition (or sabotage) which prevents any from escaping and ensures their collective demise. The analogy in human behavior is that of a group that will attempt to "pull down" (negate or diminish the importance of) any member who achieves success beyond the others, out of jealousy, conspiracy or competitive feelings.
This term is broadly associated with short-sighted, non-constructive thinking rather than a unified, long-term, constructive mentality. It is also often used colloquially in reference to individuals or communities attempting to "escape" a so-called "underprivileged life", but kept from doing so by others attempting to ride upon their coat-tails or those who simply resent their success.
This Sprit is in the Church and it will NOT no longer reside.
THIS IS WHERE WE MUST STAND FIRM ON GOD'S WORD. REMEMBER NO ONE CAN TAKE WHAT' GOD ALREADY TOLD YOU...YOU MUST BE WILLING TO GIVE IT UP! DON'T!
