The Most Precious Pearl

Would you sell everything to buy a rare, exquisite gem?

By Ellen G. White

Listen to this article below

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls, who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had and bought it.” Matt. 13:45–46.

The Savior compared the blessings of redeeming love to a precious pearl. He illustrated His lesson by the parable of the merchant seeking beautiful pearls. Christ Himself is the pearl of great price. All that can satisfy the needs and longings of the human soul, for this world and for the world to come, is found in Christ. Our Redeemer is the pearl so precious that in comparison all other things may be accounted loss. No work of humanity can improve the great and precious gift of God.

Christ “came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.” John 1:11. The light of God shone into the darkness of the world
