TITLE:<\/strong> Jesus’ Parables — The Hidden Treasure<\/p>\n

SUBJECT:<\/strong> Parables<\/p>\n

PROPOSITION:<\/strong> To set forth this parable and some of its major lessons.<\/p>\n

OBJECTIVE: <\/strong>To help each of us apply the parable and its lessons to ourselves.<\/p>\n

INTRODUCTION:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Read: Matthew 13:44.<\/p>\n

2. Regarding the text:<\/p>\n

1) In Jesus’ Galilean Ministry.<\/p>\n

2) It is one of a series of parables all of which regard, refer to or demonstrate some part or parts of the Kingdom of Heaven.<\/p>\n

3) Matthew uses the phrase “kingdom of heaven” 31 times and no other Gospel writer uses it at all.<\/p>\n

4) Matthew wrote for the Jews who alone would be concerned about the kingdom of heaven.<\/p>\n

5) This parable sets forth one important aspect of the kingdom of heaven.<\/p>\n

6) What is this important aspect?<\/p>\n

3. Reference to S.T.P.O.<\/p>\n

DISCUSSION:<\/strong> In this parable we have –<\/p>\n

I.   The kingdom of heaven.<\/p>\n

1. Old Testament descriptions: Daniel 2:44; Isaiah 2:1-4.<\/p>\n

2. Kingdom requires a king: Micah 5:2; Zecharaiah 6:12-13; 2 Samuel 7:11-13.<\/p>\n

3. New Testament passages show fulfillment: Matthew 2:6 (Micah 5:2); Hebrews 7: 12-14 and 8:4 (Zechariah 6:12-13; Luke 1:30-33; Acts 2:25-36 (2 Samuel 7:11-13); Hebrews 12:28 (Daniel 2:44); and Hebrews 12:22-24 (Isaiah 2:1-4).<\/p>\n

4. The Kingdom of heaven is here, not future. Matthew Zion; The city of the Living God; The Heavenly Jerusalem; The innumerable host of angels; The general assembly; The church of the first born ones; and mediated to God by Jesus Christ himself by his own blood.<\/p>\n

II.  Is like treasure which a man found.<\/p>\n

1. Kingdom of heaven can be found, Acts 17:24-27.<\/p>\n

2. Importance of searching: Matthew 5:6; 6:33; 7:7-8.<\/p>\n

3. Difficulty: Matthew 7:13-14,21-23; 19:16-26.<\/p>\n

III. Selleth all that he hath.<\/p>\n

1. Significantly, he hid what he found until he could secure it for himself.<\/p>\n

1) Unethical regarding the treasure, but a powerful point in the parable.<\/p>\n

2) Consider the word “joy.” (Hebrews 12:2).<\/p>\n

3) Sells all that he hath.<\/p>\n

4) All is a large little word.<\/p>\n

2. Selleth all that he hath.<\/p>\n

1) “Don’t burn all your bridges behind you.”<\/p>\n

2) Wrong!<\/p>\n

3) Sell out to the Lord Jesus Christ!<\/p>\n

4) Why?<\/p>\n

IV.  Buyeth that field.<\/p>\n

1. We emphasize this point. What did he NOT buy?<\/p>\n

1) A neighboring field.<\/p>\n

2) A field across town.<\/p>\n

3) A field that was more convenient.<\/p>\n

4) A field which would cost him less.<\/p>\n

5) A field that “looked just like it.<\/p>\n

6) A field that a good friend told him was just as good.<\/p>\n

7) A field his friend or neighbor owned.<\/p>\n

8) Just any field, either of his own or of a friend’s choosing.<\/p>\n

2. What did he buy? THAT field.<\/p>\n

1) THAT field has the treasure!<\/p>\n

2) THAT field alone meets the requirements.<\/p>\n

3) THAT field alone compares to the Kingdom of Heaven!<\/p>\n

4) Proverbs 23:23.<\/p>\n

V.   The reason for the parable.<\/p>\n

1. The importance of the kingdom of heaven.<\/p>\n

1) The most valuable treasure of life.<\/p>\n

2) Must be hidden in our hearts, our field,<\/p>\n

a. The seed, Luke 8:11;<\/p>\n

b. Psalms 119:11.<\/p>\n

c. Not to keep it from others, but to prevent personal loss of this treasure.<\/p>\n

3) Sell all.<\/p>\n

a. Romans 12:1 ( reasonable service – KJV).<\/p>\n

b. 2 Corinthians 8:1-5.<\/p>\n

2. The Kingdom of heaven, our only goal.<\/p>\n

CONCLUSION:<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. We have seen:<\/p>\n

1) The action; and<\/p>\n

2) The lesson.<\/p>\n

2. The Kingdom of heaven: love it, honor it, seek it, work in it, be part of it, and finally, give God all the glory and honor for it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
