Unsearchable riches. In the history...

Object:
Unsearchable riches. In the history of humankind, there have been several commodities
and products that have made some men and women incredibly rich: gold, coffee, tea, silk,
cotton, diamonds, and in more modern times, railroads, automobiles, web technologies,
cable television, and others. In the pursuit of obtaining such unsearchable riches, millions
of people's lives have been lost or ruined. In pursuit of enjoying unsearchable riches,
people have sold drugs, slaves, women, children, and weapons. Yet all of earth's riches
are perishable and are not transferable from this world to the next.
Paul made known the unsearchable riches of Christ, treasures that are freely given to all people with no strings attached. His efforts landed him in prison, much as the efforts of his Lord landed him on the cross. It seems that the riches of this life are more marketable and more desired than the true riches of Christ. Tragic.
