What is the kingdom of heaven?

My Sunday Scripture and reading notes

---------------------------
The Text: Matthew 13:44-52.
---------------------------

The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which a person finds and hides again, and out of joy goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant searching for fine pearls.
When he finds a pearl of great price, he goes and sells all that he has and buys it.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net thrown into the sea, which collects fish of every kind.

When it is full they haul it ashore and sit down to put what is good into buckets. What is bad they throw away.

Thus it will be at the end of the age. The angels will go out and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be wailing and grinding of teeth.

Do you understand all these things? They answered, "Yes."
And he replied, "Then every scribe who has been instructed in the kingdom of heaven is like the head of a household who brings from his storeroom both the new and the old."

My Reading Notes:
------------------

If you ask me, what is the kingdom of heaven? or, if you ask me, what is heaven? I will probable tell you that is somewhere in the clouds.

But Jesus has a different answer. It must be thoutht clearly.

It seems that, heaven is a behaviour rather then a place.

Heaven is not only a behaviour but a good behaviour.

And the behaviour is so important, that by doing it, we reached heaven.

Now, we can examine, what are the important behaviours........

First you have found the treasure on earth. It is so important, you will trade very thing for it.

Now we must think: What is so important on earth? What is so important to you and to everyone??

With that in mind, the treasue you are willing to give your life for it, is heaven.

What is that particular treasure??

We must think.
