<ref>{{bgw| Le 11:8 }} Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.</ref>

}}

A pig-like teacher may brag he gave an apple to a homeless guy. The next swine brags he gave two apples. The first responds that his was the only apple he had and he gave it. The swine will also make you feel bad for the good work that you did, trying to seem better than you.

This bragging of works is contagious. Do not be joined to it.

}}

Swine attitudes of self-righteousness based on his own ideas are contagious because they appeal to our desire to be important. We want to be noticed and appreciated. We want to look good to others. Do not be plagued by it. Instead, seek teachers who build their students up.

<ref>{{bgw| Tit 3:9 }} But avoid foolish questions, and genealogies, and contentions, and strivings about the law; for they are unprofitable and vain.</ref>

}}

Have nothing to do with the swine or you may get caught up in their folly. Perhaps this is a source for Paul's teaching: ''2Co 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?''
