DON’T CAST YOUR PEARLS TO THE SWINE! Way too much time is wasted doing this. As soon as you discern scoffing, mocking or a need to convince you of what ‘they’ believe- it’s more profitable to exit the conversation.

DON’T CAST YOUR PEARLS TO THE SWINE! Way too much time is wasted doing this. As soon as you discern scoffing, mocking or a need to convince you of what ‘they’ believe- it’s more profitable to exit the conversation.
We are to share the truth, but, when it becomes apparent that the truth is not welcome-that the conversation will be unfruitful-we are to move on. We are responsible to share the truth; but we are not responsible for people’s response to it. Pigs don’t appreciate pearls, and some people don’t appreciate what Christ has done for them or His truth.Our job is not to force conversions or cram the truth down people’s throats; there’s no sense in preaching the value of pearls to swine. Jesus’ instruction to His apostles on how to handle rejection was to simply go elsewhere. There are other people who need to hear the gospel, and they are ready to hear it.On to the next one!
Matthew 7:6 King James Version
6 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.
Matthew 10:14 King James Version
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Matthew 7:6 & 10:14(KJV)
