Greeting,
I have a question concerning the meaning of the Parable of the Hidden Treasure. Some people insist that the parable is often misinterpreted as the believer quest to abandon all worldly and sinful things of this world to obtain the true and everlasting treasure: Jesus Christ. Instead, the actual meaning should be about Christ as the man who purchase the His people as the treasure.
What is your take on this?
