- Jesus teaches that we should judge others with righteous judgment, not based on outward appearances alone. - He cautions us that the standard we use to judge others will be used to judge us. We should justify the righteous and condemn the wicked. - Jesus commands us not to give what is holy (things dedicated to God) to "dogs" (unsaved males) or cast our "pearls" (God-made substances like women of virtue) before "swine" (females who act unclean but return to their old ways), as they may trample and destroy them. - False prophets and teachers are likened to dogs and swine - dogs being false prophets and sw

1. Matt. 7:6
Jesus teaches how to “Judge”
I. The caution:
Matt 7
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged:
[It is impossible to not judge, the method used for judgment is
either “righteous or evil”]
and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
Deut 25:1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come
unto judgment, that the judges may judge them; then they shall
justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
John 7:24 Judge not accordingto the appearance, but judge
righteous judgment.
II. The command:
Matt 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.
III. The context:
Matt 7:15-23 15 Beware of false prophets [dogs]
, which come to you
in sheep's clothing, but inwardlythey are ravening wolves[k-9]
.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles?

2. 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt
tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree
bring forth good fruit.
19 Everytree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and
cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the
kingdomof heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is
in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not
prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in
thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from
me, ye that work iniquity.
Matt 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.

The bad stuff:
“dogs” & “swine”

themselves from the holy things of the children of Israel, and that

unto me: I am the LORD.

your generations, that goeth unto the holy things, which the

even, and shall not eat of the holy things, …. Charitable donation

or mandate of the law

of Israel
2Chr 31:6 …holy things which were consecrated unto the LORD
their God

4. No such thing as a second filling of the Holy Ghost. However there is a second
(and continual surrendering to the H.G.). You are bought with a price… the new
man was created for God’s use. However you still have the “right of 1st
refusal…
Therefore glorify God…
1Cor 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in
your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.
Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,
that ye present your bodies a livingsacrifice, holy, acceptable unto
God, which is your reasonable service.

dedicated to God for his service.

gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it

21{3*7}Dan.9:24)

before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and

Jesus is saying it is wrong to take people we win to Him (His body, the Church)
and turn them over to falseteachers. Itis wrong to take anything that belongs to

their feet and rend them useless.
