Perhaps that is because it was a secret. /sarcasm
Counsel from Jesus
Matt. 7:
6 ¶ Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
3 Ne. 14:
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.
Matt. 7:

OK, so the KJ version of the Bible and the BOM have exactly the same statements. Hmmm, they were written by different people, on different continents, at different periods in time, yet they each got it exactly the same.
Boy, Ole’ Joe was the luckiest guy on the planet when Moroni visited him in his bedroom floating above the floor (but, hmm, wait a minute, I thought Ole’ Joe shared his bedroom with his many brothers, but hey, that’s just one of those devil details in the story, eh?).
We are unworthy of your secret doctrines? Is that because freepers are dogs, or is it because we are swine?
It appears that Joseph Smth copied Matthew 7:6 almost word for word into 3 Nephi 14:6?
Why do you think that is?
Do you think Jesus was talking about secret rites that he was participating in at the time?
The meaning is pretty simple to figure out; “Do not persist in offering what is sacred or of value to those who have no appreciation for it, because your gift will not only become contaminated and be despised, your generous efforts could also be rebuffed and perhaps even openly attacked.”
With that note, I will no longer be conversing with you restornu, you refuse the word of God. I shake the dust from my feet.
Good bye!
“Matt. 7:

3 Ne. 14:
6 Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.’
Looks like someone was guilty of plagiarism.
