 Now, some people say, well, the pearl of great price, that's the gospel. We sell everything that we have so that we can buy the gospel. That's insane. The gospel is not for sale. If it were, we wouldn't have anything to sell anyway. We are bankrupt sinners. We have nothing. In my hand, no price I bring. Simply to thy cross I cling. The man seeking goodly pearls is Jesus. The pearl of great price is the church that he loves. Israel is called a treasure, never a pearl.
