The Scriptures are the Word of God, transmitted by various men at various times through various inallible scrolls and other ancient forms of writing. Whiile the scripture is undoubtedly true, the translations which survive today are based off of surviving manuscripts which are not always perfect, and mainstream translations are often intentionally deceitful. In order to understand the Scriptures, one must investigate the original language and compare all of the available most early surviving manuscripts.
Study
Matthew 7:7 Ask and it shall be given to you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened for you. 8 For each who asks receives and who seeks finds and for him knocking it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there among you whose son shall ask of him bread, shall give to him a stone? Or would ask also for a fish, would give to him a serpent? 11 Therefore if you being base know to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is in the heavens give good things to those who ask Him?
He who looks for the truth with an open mind and heart shall find it. But it must be in harmony with the Word of God, or he is deceived. That is why we must ask of our Father, and not from of man. He is telling us, in verse 11 here, that He expects us to ask of our Father. The only way to find God is in the Word of God, guided by His Spirit. One without the other is of no use to us. Christ always challenged the people of His time, to “search the Scriptures”.
Now if we ask for a fish, our Father will not give us a serpent. Therefore if we turn to the serpents and beasts of this world, how should we be rewarded for that? Yahshua told us that He came only for the sheep. Therefore we should also go only to the sheep! We have no need to deal with swine and dogs, and since He would not give His pearls to them, they have nothing for us. When those among us who claim to be of us insist upon going to reveal the truth to aliens, they show their fruits, that they are not truly of us. Rather, they are infiltrators and usurpers seeking to scatter the sheep. Indeed, the dog returns to its own vomit, and the sow that is washed to wallowing in the mire.
