02/11/2024: Ep 6.2: "Parable of Hidden Treasure"

In the Parable of the Hidden Treasure, Jesus shifts his parabolic discourse from the nature of the Kingdom to the value or cost of the Kingdom, which ultimately root in Christ’s sacrifice upon the cross. We are challenged to find the kingdom in unexpected, ordinary and crucial moments. In the end, Jesus paid the price for our entry into the Kingdom, but we must count the cost of discipleship.What does the price Jesus paid upon the cross say about both the value of the kingdom and our value to God?Jesus plus nothing equals everything. What might we “add” to Jesus that diminishes the importance of his work for us upon the cross?In what ordinary moments might we actively endeavor to see the Kingdom of God expressed?
