Jesus says, “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. 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."

 I. God Values His People. II. God Determines to Acquire His People. III. God Gives Everything to Purchase His People. IV. God Does it For Joy.
