Which verse says 'give not your gift to the dogs..'? And yes Jesus told his disciples about the parables , and we get to read them , with the explanation given . The point there is ,we now read the parable With the explanation. They are not hidden now . There not coded messages that only the gnostic enlightened can read.
The will of God

The "dogs" are those who don't believe in Jesus. Most people here do. The "others" are unrepentant Jews.
Instead of acting like you are God's gift to us, get off your high horse and start acting like you are not better; for in truth, you aren't. You are a sinner in need of a saviour, and your arrogance is a stench.

The only ' obedience ' required to be saved today is ' believe the Gospel.
21For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe .
1 cor 1.21 .
Romans 6:17 KJV
But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
And no this is not what the demons believe .

what did God say to Ezekiel .....give them my message whether they listen or fail to listen for they are a rebellious house....Paul said we must heed the words of the Prophets....and listen carefully....we don’t argue. .....Jesus said he was hated..he was hated from the beginning...why...because of the truth...Jesus said my words are truth...truth hurts..it’s the double edge sword...
The cause of the division..and yet it must be so.....it is prophecy....as it says in revelation....those that were killed for the testimony of Jesus..very sad indeed
remember Paul said..to some we are the aroma of life to others we are the smell of death..cor. 2.16

I think you are making this harder than what it actually is. He didn't literally mean that we should hate and or abandon anyone.
It is not a sin to own possessions or be married and/or have a family. However, we should put Jesus first and above all else and follow him. We need to make sure that we are following him and doing what he wants us to do. No matter what anyone else says, we are to put him first and do his will. To me, that is actually pretty simple to understand.
As far as them saying, it was a hard teaching and who can accept it...That was when he was talking about eating his flesh and drinking his blood....It was parable and they could not understand it. We know what it means, because he explained it. Good thing he explained it to them, as well because.... It would have been terrible if they would had taken him literal.

Jesus rightly said that His followers would be hated... by the world. You are setting yourself up as one of His followers, implying that others on this forum are not His followers. Most here are followers of Jesus; we just don't necessarily agree with your interpretation of Scripture. Deal with it. Grow a thicker skin, and stop acting like a martyr.
34And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
35Wherefore he saith also in another psalm, Thou shalt not suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
36¶For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
37But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
38Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:
39And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;
41Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.
42¶And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.
Its not saying the way you said it?
There's no anger here 😊
