The Pursuit of Purity-3.8.20
Mar 8, 2020 • Zeb Cook
Sometimes people try to accomplish good goals through unrighteous ways. That’s what Naomi proposed to Ruth, and with which Ruth complied. How did Boaz respond to what amounted to an “Indecent Proposal?” Love is an act of the will not the emotions. The passage before us greatly illuminates that truth. Ruth 3 is a beautiful portrait of human love. While we can feel love, the pillars of true love are all actions or acts of the will. Under the veneer of this true love story one will also find a parable of divine love.
