Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls, who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it." Jesus uses many parables throughout His time recorded on earth. He compares His kingdom in [Matthew 13]( to a treasure hidden in a field that is purchased by a man with all he has and a merchant who finds one great pearl and sells all he has to buy it. In comparing this, He is essentially saying that when you discover the beautiful gift of [salvation]( from Him, you will do whatever you can to be a part and invest in His Kingdom work. Commentator, [Matthew Henry]( elaborates, “Though nothing can be given as a price for this salvation, yet much must be given up for the sake of it.” The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. The kingdom of heaven is like treasure. This is so true that it is such a beautiful and mysterious gift that the Perfect God would come down to us in flesh as Jesus and take on our sins through death and raise Himself back to life. He ascended into heaven and now sits at God’s right hand. He has sent us His Holy Spirit. Even though God wishes no one perishes, not everyone accepts this treasures or see it for what it is. To them, it is difficult to understand or believe what they cannot see with their own eyes. When we know what we have been given and found in Jesus, there is a drive and a confidence in His great love and plan that we are thankful and seeking after more and more.  [CONTINUE READING →](            You May Also Like:        [10 Things You Need to Know about the Unforgivable Sin](  Dr. David Jeremiah “One of the questions that often comes up is, ‘Can I commit a sin that God cannot forgive?’.
