This is the Word the Lord laid on my heart and mind first thing this morning, in the form of a command.
Matthew 7:6
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.
Have you ever been rent for sharing the truth of the Word of God saints?
Often times when the truth of the Word of God is shared, the dogs come out, they come out to feed on the children of God, and rend us. The dogs are not lovers of The Truth. The dogs lay in wait for an opportunity to rend someone, anyone.
Phillipians 3:2-3
So we can conclude here that the dogs are those who do not worship God in the Spirit, and those who do have confidence in their own flesh.
22. And, behold, a woman of Canaan came out of the same coasts, and cried unto him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou Son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil.
The woman/dog, the non-Jew believed and acknowledged that Jesus was The Master, that He was Lord and because of her Faith in Who He was, the Lord gave her the desire of her heart.
We as He did, are to minister the things of God to those who acknowledge that Jesus is Lord, those that seek Him!
The dogs are those that do not do His commandments, they are those who love lies, and to lie, they are those who have not received the love of the Truth. The dogs are those who do not seek Him nor desire Him. The dogs are those who love to rend the children of God, and who take great pleasure in it.

That was a good and interesting Word. I have a question: What if the person whom you share the Word with ackonlegdes Jesus as Lord, but doesn't want to obey the commandments of the Master and they follow after their own heart? Can you still share the Word with them too?
God bless.
As long as they are open to hearing the Word of God, by all means share with them. Warn them in love, of the consequences of the path they are on. Share with them what the results are if we follow our own hearts, instead of being obedient to God.
If they don't heed your Words, and insist on living sinfully, eventually you may have to seperate from them.
Give all people time, and be patient with them. Sometimes people expect others to change over night, and that just doesnt happen, we are flesh.
God has had to deal with me for a long time on some issues in my life, character flaws, that needed to be submitted to Him.
If the person you speak of is knowingly living in blatant, unrepentant open sin, of course that is a different story.
Hope this helps a tad sister...
OH and Sister--Pray, Pray, Pray for them..the efectual ferverent prayer of the righteous availeth much...
