RUTH ENTERS THE LINEAGE OF THE MESSIAH

DesertedHimJohn 6:66-69: “From that time many of HIS DISCIPLES WENT BACK, AND WALKED NO MORE WITH HIM. Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? Thou hast the words of eternal life. And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God.”

Ruth 1:14-17: “Orpah kissed her mother in law; but Ruth cleaved unto her. And she said, behold, thy sister in law is GONE BACK UNTO HER PEOPLE, AND UNTO HER GODS: return thou after thy sister in law. And Ruth said, Intreat me not to leave thee: for whither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God: Where thou diest, will I die, and there will I buried: the LORD do so to me, and more also, if ought but death part thee and me.”

Orpah is the type of the apostate church who kiss Christ and yet go back to the gods of this world.

Ruth, through her declaration, becomes the type of the true church who become worthy to be married to the heavenly Kinsman Redeemer, Jesus Christ. These are the ones who are the true overcomers who “Follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth” (Revelation 14:4).

Through her 100 percent sell out to Naomi and consequently the God of Israel, Ruth, the Moabite Gentile woman becomes the great-grandmother of David, the greatest prophetic King of Israel, through whom the Messiah was prophesied to come and then came into this world. What a great reward for Ruth. Amazing.

Be encouraged.
