Re: Don't help people who are not willing to change

The Lord spoke of all who ignore Him and the insincere, the vagabonds/criminal minded, etc. in the same way....calling them "dogs" (the woman was smart and spoke of PET dogs in the household when she serves food to the children and cares for them....she was a mother).

OUR SAVIOR told the woman that it is her faith/lifestyle that saved her.

Those who don't want to change must be given a chance and convinced that they need to change (with gentle subtlety).

Jesus was saying that we should not give what is holy to "DOGS",......(but then what of YOUR spirit of kindness and gracious love/regard for your fellow human being?).

......MY spirit tells me to be more gracious than I feel I should be (I understand). To some people, this may seem a contradiction, some people may even think I'm mad.


Job 32:8 But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that makes him understand.


John 6:63 It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is of no avail

Rom 8:16 it is the Spirit himself bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God,



Hosea 9:7 the man of the spirit is mad,

James 4:4 Unfaithful creatures! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Act 26:24 "Paul, you are mad; your great learning is turning you mad."

Hosea 9:7 The spiritual man is insane,

The spiritual man is NOT.....

.....EVERYBODY'S 'cup of tea'.
