It’s interesting to note that originally Ruth was part of the book of Judges. It was only separated out to accomodate scripture reading during Jewish liturgical rituals. So while there was all this really awful ugliness gong on all around as described in the rest of Judges, (”people did what was right in their own eyes”) we saw God moving his plan forward in the persons of the wonderful and innocent Ruth, Naomi and Boaz.
Recently I preached a retreat for a good number of women here in our Archdiocese. I based the retreat on the Book of Ruth, a beautiful love story that is a kind of allegory for Christ and the Church. More specifically it is an allegory of the individual’s salvation by Christ and in relationship to Him.In other words, the story related in the Book of Ruth didn't happen either. Isn't anything in the "old testament" true???
So tell us again about how John 6 is to be interpreted literally. [/sarcasm]

The roman catholic church is not our "mother"...nor is the church.
The church is the people of God....not a denomination.

The Church is the bride not the mother.
