COMMENTARY
How do we know who are the ‘dogs’? Only one way folks; We
must judge people to be so! So judging people is a very real &
necessary Bible doctrine that all Christians should both be aware of
and practice. Everybody does it anyways whether they realize it or not.
Moreover how can Christians not cast pearls before swine if they do not
know what a swine looks like? This means we must make personal
judgments towards people and that’s Biblical! So when people
object with... "who are you to judge.. judge not lest you be judged"
they are taking that idea to unbiblical extremes and ignoring the
balance that says... we are to avoid unrighteous judgments while at the
same time we must judge saved & lost.
