About this episode

This episode explores the concept of God's rest as presented in Hebrews, emphasizing trust in His provision and salvation.

When the writer of Hebrews offered rest from God, what kind of rest does God offer? God rested from His work of creation on His sabbath – then commands His people to enjoy a rest the same way – trusting in His provision. God offered peace – trusting in His provision and protection. God offered salvation – trusting His provided atonement instead of trying to make our own.
