What does it mean for Christians to cleave to the Lord?

Answered in 1 source

Cleave to the Lord means to remain steadfast in faith and devotion, demonstrating commitment and love towards Christ.

Cleave to the Lord, as mentioned in Acts 11:23, involves a deep, abiding relationship with Christ, akin to the marital covenant described in Genesis 2:24. This commitment requires believers to turn away from worldly distractions and focuses on embodying the faith through actions that reflect their love and devotion to Christ. In 1 Thessalonians 1:3, the evidence of this cleaving can be seen in the work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope, which reflect an active and living relationship with God.
