    Pearl-It’s the only gem that can’t be improved by man. You can cut and polish a diamond, ruby and other stones. BUT … if you begin to mess with a pearl, you ruin it. It’s perfect when it’s formed.

    The man who is searching for the pearls is, Jesus himself. "What other great treasure does God value in this world?" -- in order to discover what this pearl means. The church. Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, ... that he might present the church to himself in splendor, ...read more
