KEEP THE DOGS OUT AND AWAY
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 7:6
They are looking for something to devour. They are not content until they find something to destroy. Through their words, their manner, and their unkind ways they are like dogs. God warns us in Matthew 7:6 that we are not to give that which is holy to them. They mock and ridicule the word of God; they find fault with the church of God; they speak against the man of God; they ridicule and slander the saint of God; they crucify the Son of God. And the words of wisdom that you share with them will be used against you. They are mockers, betrayers and quite greedy. Instead of taking out the mote in their own eye, they run after others to find fault. They are dangerously evil and destructive. But it may be easy to forget that they are dogs because they have a way of appearing nice, nice--deceiving even themselves. But beware.
Christian man and Christian woman, guard the things of God. Guard His calling upon your life. Guard your church and your ministry. Guard your children, your home and family. Guard your resources and your friendships. And keep the dogs out and far away.
" Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out" (John 12:31).
