In chapter three of Hebrews we saw...
a. A comparison of Christ to Moses
b. How the comparison led to a warning based upon the example of Israel in the wilderness
The Appeal to the example of Israel's fall in the wilderness is a critical one...
a. For despite Moses' leadership, most died in the wilderness and did not enter the promised land for lack of faith
b. Now under Christ's leadership, we face a similar danger of falling short of our "promise" through a lack of faith - He 3:14-15; 4:1
Chapter four continues the warning with a focus on the promised "rest" which awaits the faithful Christian...
a. This promised "rest" is one of several "rests" found in the Scriptures
b. It is a "rest" that Moses and Joshua did not provide, which is just another reason why the Hebrew Christian should not forsake Jesus and return to Judaism
c. It is "The Rest That Remains" for the people of God today!
Today, we shall address two questions...
a. What is "The Rest That Remains"?
b. What essential elements are necessary to enter "The Rest That Remains"?
