Cast Not Your Pearls Before Swine!

"Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you:
The Lord Jesus instructs us in those times when you do go to someone with the Word, to correct, help, and restore them, but they refuse (even your meek and gentle) admonition, and they trample on you for coming to them.
The Lord Jesus here commands us in wisdom on how we are to behave toward recalcitrant and incorrigible persons.
Recalcitrant: Obstinately uncooperative toward authority/discipline.
Incorrigible: One who will not be corrected or reformed.
Don't cast your pearls (the precious truths of the Word) before them, for they will trample the good Word of God under their feet!
You may not know that they are dogs or swine until AFTER you've spoken the gospel of Christ to them! Once you've had the regrettable experience of them trampling the Word and you; give them no more opportunities to do so.
