Every once in a while there comes along an opportunity that is so fabulous that it is too good to pass up. However, such opportunities often require us to give up all our other options and put all our eggs in one basket. In Matthew 13:44-46, Jesus told two very short parables about the kingdom of heaven. In each parable, a man seized a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, giving up everything for the sake of gaining very much more.
Although the nations are constantly in rebellion against the Lord, he has established his Son as King over the whole world.
Although sin twists the law for evil purposes, the law itself is good.
Sooner or later every kingdom that opposes God will be “all gone,” but there is a kingdom that will not pass away.
