text: for you well-meaning ''christians'', explain your work here in conflict with matthew 7:6 please?   the grace of christ is an undesevered gift of being forgiven of our sins. it is to be shared with all. as christ told peter if you love me feed my sheep. those who will accept the precious gift of grace (which the is the pearl). christ is telling us to feed those willing to accept it humbly but not to waste it on those who scuff at it and refuse it. there is no conflict here just instruction on how to handle two different situations. i pray i am not casting my pearls of god given wisdom before any swine here.
