Ruth gave up her entire identity to follow Ruth. She left her heritage, her people and their customs. She at this moment converted to Judaism. This is a picture of what becoming a Christian is all about. Turning from the old man to the new. It’s what the apostle Paul wrote about in Philippians 3: 5-8

After Paul lays out these foundational truths of loving and submitting to God and then to one another, he goes deeper by showing us where the true war is being fought.

In todays study, we will pick back up at Ephesians 5:17 bringing context to our study. We will be looking at what submitting to one another in Christ means and how it applies in relationships with one another.

These were real people, living real lives who had to go through these things to get to where God wanted him to be and because of their faithfulness God richly rewarded them.

We will look at how we are light in the darkness, and how we need to be alert and awake, walking in the wisdom of the word and in the power of the Holy Spirit.

In this study Paul continues his theme on walking in the new man and dying to the old.

We will see a wonderful redemption story and as in the book of Esther, we will see God’s hand at work all the way back to Joshua and the city of Jericho.

We will look at walking in the new man not in our former fleshly nature.

In this study we will look at "sensationalism". This type of hyped up man generated religion, leads to false teaching and then to manipulation which only brings harm to the body.

In this study we come to the 12th month of Adar (March 12 on the Jewish calendar) and see the conclusion of How God delivers His people.
