Subject: throwing our pearl? |
Bible Note: I have been thinking about this verse a lot recently...Bonhoeffer has an interesting view that this verse states that we are to be careful with proselytizing, etc so that we don't throw our pearl (the Kingdom of heaven see Mt 13:45-46) before those who care nothing for it. I was wondering if y'all (I'm from Georgia) had any thoughts or comments on it. |
