What does true redemption look like—and what does it cost?
In this powerful message from Ruth 4:1–12, we see Boaz model integrity and obedience in the face of personal cost, showing us a beautiful picture of Jesus Christ, our ultimate Redeemer. Boaz doesn't act out of self-interest, but out of love, faith, and submission to God's law. His actions mirror Christ's, who didn't bypass the cross, but obeyed the Father willingly to redeem us.
📖 Learn how God's redemption comes not just with love, but with obedience, sacrifice, and integrity.
 
📌 Key Themes:
This week's message dives into Ruth 4:1–12, where Boaz steps into the role of redeemer—not just with affection, but with integrity. While another man was first in line, he backed out when the cost became clear. Boaz, however, obeyed God and embraced the cost, reflecting the heart of Christ who joyfully obeyed the Father—even to the point of the cross.
You'll learn:
· What a "redeemer" really meant in the Old Testament
· Why redemption is always bound by the law—and why Jesus had to fulfill it
· How integrity, obedience, and sacrifice mark true godliness
· Why Boaz's obedience points directly to Christ's love for you
👉 Whether you're in a season of suffering, loss, or waiting, this message will strengthen your faith and remind you that Jesus, your Redeemer, acted with integrity to secure your inheritance.
