What does the Bible say about cleaving to Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes the importance of cleaving to Jesus, illustrating true faith through the example of Ruth who did not let go of Naomi.

The act of cleaving to Jesus signifies a deep and unwavering faith in Him. In Ruth 1:14, we see Ruth's commitment as she refuses to leave Naomi, contrasting with Orpah, who returns to Moab after a moment of emotional response. This story exemplifies the difference between true saving faith and mere emotional movement, where those who cleave to Christ are bound to Him with confidence, while those who do not may appear moved but ultimately turn back to their old ways.
