Affordable Grace

 • Kyle Douglass • Series: Matthew: Meet the Messiah

In Matthew 13:44-46, Jesus shares two short, simple, but profound stories about the Kingdom. First, the value of the Kingdom is extravagant, life-changing, joy producing. Notice the grace in the finding. The discovers didn’t earn it or work for it but it’s worth all they have. And God has made it affordable: it costs all you have, but you have all you need to pay for it. Does this seem too much? Too risky to give all in exchange for citizenship in the Kingdom? It will only seem that way if you have undervalued the treasure!
