Matthew 13:44-46 NLT: 44 “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a treasure that a man discovered hidden in a field. In his excitement, he hid it again and sold everything he owned to get enough money to buy the field. 45 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant on the lookout for choice pearls. 46 When he discovered a pearl of great value, he sold everything he owned and bought it!

We American Christians have forgotten something important about our faith - namely, it's about a life WITH God rather than all the things we're doing FOR God. Our focus on endless activity is no accident. In the late 1800s, American Christians shifted heavily toward action, perfectly captured by preacher Charles Spurgeon’s famous plea: “Brethren, do something; do something; do something.” For over a century, this mindset has defined the movement by its programs and busyness. But the earliest disciples were marked as different - simply because they had been WITH Jesus.

The joy of knowing Jesus is greater than the cost of following Jesus. The joy of saving you was greater than the cost of dying for you.

We often tend to overvalue what isn't truly valuable and, conversely, to undervalue those things which truly are valuable. In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp teaches a message entitled "The Priceless Kingdom" from 2 of Jesus' parables found in Matthew 13:44-46. Chris teaches about the true value of the kingdom of God.

Sunday, March 13, 2022 – We’re studying the Parables of the Hidden Treasure & the Pearl. Both Parables speak about the Joy of discovery and attaining very precious and valuable treasures, one hidden and one purposely sought after. What makes these similar parables different is the viewpoints they are seen from. The Hidden Treasure is from a man's viewpoint that finds God, the Pearl is from God's viewpoint when Jesus finds us. Both joyfully give up everything to gain the prize. I pray that we can appreciate how much Jesus truly gave up to pay the price to purchase us on that Old Rugged Cross. If we can do that, then it will help us joyfully give up everything we have here on earth to find Him…

Your most valuable possession comes from the One who gave all for you.
In this presentation of the Parable of the Pearl of Great Price and of the Parable of Hidden Treasure, Robin invites us to focus again on Jesus as the one that gives meaning to our lives while also being the model for how to live.

The Greatest Treasure. Great gifts from Jesus change us. There is nowhere better; no place we would rather be. You are loved, therefore you exist. You are God's masterpiece.
The kingdom must be valued above all
Sermon by Kene Izuchuckwu The Parable Of The Hidden Treasure part 2 of the series The Parables
Sermon by Kene Izuchuckwu The Parable Of The Hidden Treasure part 2 of the series The Parables
The kingdom of God has a value that calls us to give up all we have to gain it. Do you want what you think is best, or do you want God’s best for your life? You and I must be willing to give up everything we have in order to gain it. Jesus makes is clear that no one can purchase the God’s kingdom with money or good works. As with any sacrifice we learn today that, “If the cause is great enough, the cost is irrelevant.” Sermon Notes @ https://my.bible.com/events/633693
How much will it cost? When it comes to following Jesus, we all know that is will cost us something. Will I have to give this up? Am I required to change that? Do I need to go there? Asking the cost is an important question when it comes to faith. But it’s not the only question. In fact, perhaps the better question is: what will you gain? As we conclude our Kingdom Vision series, learn to see the incredible value of the Kingdom.

Pascal Denault - Matthieu 13.44-46 - DESCRIPTION - Pour terminer l’année 2017, contemplons les richesses dont nous sommes héritiers ; des richesses plus grandes que les trésors de l’Égypte, mais seuls ceux qui ont le regard de la foi comprennent ce mystère. En étudiant ces deux paraboles, nous verrons que nos richesses, quoique bien réelles, ne sont pas encore visibles. Néanmoins, elles ont plus de valeur que tous les trésors visibles que les hommes recherchent. - QUESTIONS - 1. Indiquez les différentes interprétations de ces paraboles avec leurs forces et faiblesses. 2. Comment faut-il interpréter l’idée « d’achat » du royaume? 3. Qu’est-ce que le trésor caché nous apprend sur le royaume des cieux? 4. Comment faut-il renoncer à tout pour obtenir la perle du royaume?
Two Parables about the Kingdom of Heaven. We must earnestly seek Christ and His Kingdom.
