Gospel Truth: A Valuable Pearl
May 2, 2025
Matthew 13:45-46 The kingdom from Heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls. When he found a very valuable pearl, he went and sold everything he had and bought it.
What would you give for eternal life in the kingdom of Heaven?
What would Jesus do to have you?
The merchant stopped searching for pearls when he found one at a great price. In the same way, eternal life, the incorruptible inheritance, and the love of God through Jesus Christ are treasures that make further searching unnecessary. Christ fulfills our deepest needs, cleanses us, calms our hearts, and offers hope for the future. The "great price" refers to Jesus Christ's sacrifice for our redemption. He humbled Himself, took on human form, and shed His precious blood on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins.
