There remains a "rest" for the people of God, so labor that you may enter into that "rest", Hebrews says. The "rest" spoke of here, in Hebrews, is the true Sabbath. Everyone running around trying to get people to keep one day of the week holy, calling it the Sabbath day, are mistaken as to the real meaning. Israel kept the Sabbaths for hundreds of years, yet never entered into the Rest of God. That should say it all. It is not about a day of the week, longitude or latitude on the map, position in prayer, but the "Rest" of God within. When He fills us up with His Spirit, we cease from all our own "labors" and enter in to His rest the Real Sabbath! Religion has us working and God has us resting. Which one do you want? Be blessed.
Be Blessed from a recovering Pharisee,
Billy and Jan Wells
