Bible Question: casting something before swine what is the saying and what does it mean? |
Bible Answer: Try bribing a swine with pearls. He isn't interested. He will look at what you offered, see it is useless to him and trample it underfoot. Then enraged, turn and see you are good to eat. Similarly, people who have sought refuge in a church, thinking a statue or or cross will protect them will see the mob outside says that wooden cross so precious to you in just cheap firewood to us, and then attack. If you have had some special blessing from God and seek to bare your heart to an unbeliever, He will trample it. greentwiga |
