There Remains a Rest
- The Wilderness We Find Ourselves In
- The Rest Promised
- The Means to Enter the Rest
Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:
- Read Hebrews 4:1-13. The word “rest” is used multiple times in chapters 3 & 4? To what does it refer? There is more than one answer.
- The writer presents the Exodus generation as a parallel example for the church. We have been redeemed out of slavery. We have a promised “rest” awaiting us. What about this intermediary time? How is this time like the “wilderness”?
- Consider the commands of verse 1 and 11. How are they similar? Different? What do they call us to do?
- What means have been provided for us to help us enter into God’s rest? What role does the “word of God” play?
Memory Verse of the Week:
Hebrews 4:9-10 So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his. (ESV)
