Answer: You will be wasting your time by offering something that is so precious and so valuable to someone who does not appreciate or understand it. And in this case, the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ: His Gospel.
Jesus said in Matthew 7:6, "Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces."
In His Sermon on the Mount, where He quoted this Scripture, Jesus uses dogs and pigs as representative of those who would ridicule, reject, and blaspheme the Gospel once it is presented to them. We are not to expose the Gospel of Jesus Christ to those who have no other purpose than to trample it and return to their own evil ways. Repeatedly sharing the Gospel with someone who continually scoffs and ridicules Christ, is like casting pearls before swine. We can identify such people through discernment, which is given to us! Jesus showed us how to deal with the rejection of His Gospel, we simply go elsewhere, because there's someone WHO IS READY to hear the greatest news they have ever heard!! Amen! 🎯 Repent and believe and turn back to God!
