    We can choose or lose. The choices three widows made and the outcome

    TITLE: Life's Choices TEXT: Ruth 1:16-17 INTRO: A sign on the door of a classroom reads: "We are not born losers, we are born choosers."

     | 20,030 views

    This first chapter of Ruth will help us see that there are great possibilities ahead that we are not aware of. God has been working all along in the background even if all around us is full of darkness and despair.

    We are going to start a new series today in the Book of Ruth. What do we know about that Book of Ruth? For one thing, this short Book consisting of only four chapters and 100 verses is a link between the time of the judges and the kings of Israel. Remember that during the time of the Judges, ...read more

    Adam Died Without Fulfilling His Obligation

     | 2,731 views

    To show that unbelievers of this world died without fulfilling their duties and obligations before GOD that's why their family will be left with the same negligence of not knowing the LORD JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR.

    I. EXORDIUM: Are you doing your obligation before GOD? Yes. The SEED OF ABRAHAM that lives within me is fulfilling it right now, He is my Hope of Glory. Colossians 1:27 (Amplified Bible) To whom God was pleased to make known how great for the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, ...read more

    Ruth displayed her sacrificial love and service to her mother in law, Naomi by her willingness to glean in the field of Boaz even in the heat of the sun. Such godly character produced a blessing that transformed Naomi's bitterness into hope and joy.

    We are continuing our study in the book of Ruth. Last week, we studied chapter one concerning a man from Judah named Elimelech relocating his entire family to Moab, the land of pagan idol worshipers. Elimelech lived during the time of the Judges, was married to Naomi and they had two sons, named ...read more

    In this study, we will learn of the dream of Naomi for a home where Ruth will be properly provided for. In the same manner, we dream of a home where Christ is our Kinsman Redeemer shielding our home from the enemy attacks.

    Today, we are going to study chapter three of the Book of Ruth. So, far, we have learned that Elimelech and his wife Naomi relocated their family from Judah to Moab. They had two sons, Mahlon and Kilion who married Moabite women named Orpha and Ruth. But at the course of time, Elimelech died and ...read more

     | 7,293 views

    What Boaz did for Ruth is a vivid illustration of what Jesus Christ did for you and me on the cross. We, the near kinsman, cannot save ourselves, so we take off our shoe and give it to Christ.

    Our kinsman redeemer Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and exchanging: to confirm a transaction, the one drew off his sandal and gave it to the other, and this was the manner of attesting in Israel. So when the redeemer said to Boaz, “Buy it for ...read more

    Discovering Your Destiny In Christ Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Jul 11, 2016
     | 12,448 views

    God has a good plan for our lives and we can discover our destiny in Christ by making daily decisions in submission to His Word through the power of the Holy Spirit. This is the lesson we can learn from the last chapter of Ruth.

    There is a vast difference between FATE and DESTINY. Fate is usually thought of as a predetermined course of events beyond the human control. A typical response of a person who believes in fate is resignation - if we can't change destiny, then why even try? Whatever happens, happens and we can't do ...read more

    Menno Simons was a contemporary with Martin Luther, who seems to have taken all the credit for the reformation. But where Martin Luther failed in his reformation, Menno Simons didn’t.

    Menno Simons Today (31st October) is reformation day, and so my focus will be on the reformer, Menno Simons. Menno Simons was a contemporary with Martin Luther, who seems to have taken all the credit for the reformation. But where Martin Luther failed in his reformation, Menno Simons ...read more

    God shatters dreams which leave us short of full joy even if fully satisfied.

    Scripture Introduction In literature, a tragedy ends with a negative or sad outcome, a comedy with a happy one. Macbeth is a tragedy; Much Ado About Nothing, a comedy. From a literary view, Ruth is a comedy – the characters pass through difficulty (even heartbreak) to end with joy and hope. The ...read more

    God offers a future and a hope to all who trust in him more than we treasure earth’s rewards.

    Scripture Introduction In his old radio show, Thru the Bible, J. Vernon McGee said, “The Book of Ruth is a pearl in the swine pen of the judges.” I’m not sure I would say just that, but these people did live in the time of the judges (about 1100 B. C.), which were not the best years for Israel. ...read more

    Scripture Introduction We meet Boaz in our study today. Do you know what kind of man Boaz was before he got married? Answer: he was Ruth-less.
