Narrative

Pastor Jim and Lori Bakker welcomed back Rabbi Jonathan Cahn for Day 8 of his special message. The subject of the day’s program related to the Mystery of Ruth and The Ruth Code.

Rabbi Cahn went into detail about the symbolism contained in the book of Ruth, which paints a picture, not only of the relationship between God and Israel, but also the church bringing together and unifying Jews and Gentiles. The Rabbi explained that Ruth, a Gentile woman, chose to cling to her mother-in-law Naomi, a Jew. Even though of different lineage, Ruth went on to marry Boaz, a Jewish man, bore children, including Obed, the father of Jesse and the grandfather of the great prophet David. This same family line produced the family of Jesus, in later generations.

Many mysteries lie in code in the book of Ruth, a fact made clear as Rabbi Cahn explained the meanings of certain Hebrew words such as “go’el,” which means “redeemer” in Ruth 3:9, but more specifically signifies one who redeems by marrying. The word describes Boaz taking Ruth under his wing in marriage, but also, symbolically represents how Christ loves and protects the church, His bride. The union of Jew and Gentile in this Old Testament story gives a glimpse into what takes place prior to the end of the age. The Rabbi stated that the enemy knows the time for redemption has come when Jews and Gentiles start coming together and the walls that previously divided them come tumbling down.

Pastor Jim noted how this very thing is happening as more Christians embrace Jews and the state of Israel as well as the increasing numbers of Jews accepting the Jesus as their Messiah and Lord. He went on to stress the importance of believers standing with Israel and admonished that doing so comprises the very essence of their spiritual salvation. Pastor Jim said the nation of Israel formed when he was eight years old and, at that time, no one knew of Jews and Gentiles worshiping together. Today, the unfolding of a different story has those historic walls of division disappearing. The Rabbi likened today’s events to a reliving of the book of Acts where the Holy Spirit descended on Jews and Gentiles alike, creating a new chosen people based on the spirit, rather than on physical and genetic lineage.

Prior to the end of the show, Rabbi Cahn gave a special Hebrew blessing, in the tradition of his forefathers, on Pastor Jim, Lori and all of Morningside’s visitors and viewers.
