A.W. Pink expounds on 'The Parable of the Treasure' from Matthew 13:44, emphasizing that the treasure represents Israel, hidden in the world, and that the man who finds it symbolizes Christ. He critiques common interpretations that equate the treasure with the Gospel and the field with the Scriptures, arguing instead that the parable illustrates God's plan for Israel and the significance of Christ's redemptive work. Pink highlights the importance of understanding the context in which Jesus spoke this parable, specifically to His disciples, to reassure them of God's ongoing purpose despite Israel's rejection. The parable ultimately points to the future restoration of Israel as God's chosen people, emphasizing the distinction between the earthly and heavenly elect. Pink concludes that the completion of the parable, which involves Christ possessing the treasure, is intentionally omitted as it pertains to a future time beyond the current age.

A.W. Pink expounds on the profound truth that God's inheritance is found in His people, emphasizing that God chose not the world or angels, but humanity as His special treasure.

Pink highlights that God's people are being beautified and prepared for Him, and that in eternity, God will fully enjoy His inheritance, reflecting His glory through them. The sermon culminates in the awe-inspiring realization that God finds richness in our faith and worship, making us His inheritance.
