Holy Pearls, Dogs and Swine

July 18, 2021 PM, Matthew 7:6.

Verses 1-4 teach us to avoid super-critical judgment. But in doing that, we cannot forget that we must proclaim the truth. We cannot be “so unjudgmental” that we have zero discernment about people or situations or that we do not say anything critical. But we must discern when it is time to move on to greener pastures so that we do not bring God’s name down into a muddy wrestling match. That is not suitable for holy things.

Our Scripture reading was found in 1 Chronicles 2:1-55.
