This week our text is Matthew 13:44-46. We are looking at the parables of the hidden treasure and the pearl of great price. These two parables illustrate the same truth, the great value of the kingdom of heaven for us and what faith will cause a person to do when he understands the value of the kingdom. I’ve entitled the message: Treasuring the Kingdom. And we will consider the message of these parables under these four heads.
1. The two illustrations.
2. The great treasure of the kingdom of heaven.
3. What these parables teach us about faith.
4. Encouragements for our faith.
