 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls: who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.”
 - Matthew 13:45-46 (KJV) 

"Since Roman times, Bahrain has been famous for its pearls. The tiny Middle Eastern country became the center of the global pearl trade. Today about 15 pounds of natural pearls are harvested from Bahrain's waters annually, and while it might not sound like a lot, natural pearls are light and expensive. What would you give for a valuable pearl?" Jesus once said, again, the Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a merchant man seeking goodly pearls, who when he had found one pearl of great price went and sold all that he had and bought it. Jesus is talking about something so valuable that you'd be wise to give all you have in order to secure it. And that's what God is asking of you, all you have. That is your whole heart. If you're looking to invest in something of true value, give all for that pearl. Salvation, it's well worth it. I'm John Bradshaw for It is Written. [MUSIC PLAYING]
