Ruth’s example is the harshest critique of individualistic evangelicalism. Ruth clings to Naomi covenantally. She has no interest in embracing her God without embracing her people. To cling to Yahweh is to cling to His bride. The Gospel demands that you abandon the Old Adam and the Old Eve and embrace the New Adam, Jesus and the New Eve, Jesus’ Bride.
