Seems as though many sinners have a problem with biblical truth on sin.

Seems as though, many of us seem to feel conviction from biblical truths. But, I say how are we to learn the truth unless someone shares with us.
Matthew 7:1 Judge not that ye be not judged. Is a favorite verse for those who want to defend their sin. But scriptures are sometimes controversial, if you continue to read to verse 7:6 Give not what is holy to the dogs neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
For Christians, is it not part of being a child of the most high God, to share our biblical knowledge, with others when they have lack of?

I always thought verse 7.6 was about people who clearly had no intention to hear your pearl of wisedom. In fact, they are bent on attacking you for sharing the knowledge.
It has little to do with sinners or judgment. And everything to do when it's not a good time to preach to people who's not in the right mindset
As Christians I think we should share our biblical knowledge, but we should do so to willing audiences at the right time.

I agree totally. In 7:1 this is the one they will throw up in your face rather than to accept the word.
Sharing God's word is showing love rather than judgement. Even when it comes to biblical convictions.

I do agree as well with what you two wrote on this scripture. We can have lovely thoughts and try to be helpful to other people but when our gathering together to talk about what have been given to us that is a little helpful wisdom breaks into a angry, hurtful argument then all we hope to gain from the words is lost. It is like telling someone you love them and then they hit you over the head with a hammer.

@Bluedoll 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
Also, I don't believe in disputing the devil.
Some people are not really interested or willing to give up their sinful ways. God gives us choice, we need to allow others those choices as well.
