ADVENTURES OF RUTH: GOD'S ACCEPTANCE

(Message by Tanny Keng)


1. Adventures Of Ruth 

a) Amid all the turmoil in the time of the conquest of Canaan, there were still those who managed to live quiet godly lives in villages and farms. The story of Ruth is a welcome respite from the book of Judges, and a fitting prelude to the book of Samuel.

b) This true story demonstrates the providence of God — how he helps people through hard times and grants them new seasons of refreshing and joy as he did in Bethlehem.

2. God's Acceptance  

a) Ruth was a Gentile, a Moabite (Ruth:1:4).

b) She made the true God her God (Ruth 1:16).

c) God accepted her and blessed her (Ruth 4:13).

d) She became the mother of Boaz's son Obed, thus she was king David's great grandmother and one of Christ's ancestors (Ruth 4:21-22, Matthew 1:5-6).


The End ...
