9/4/22 9:30 “The Rest that Only Jesus Gives” (Adam Hughes)

Text: Hebrews 3:12 - 4:13

Series Title: “Anchored in Christ” 

Sermon Title: “The Rest that Only Jesus Gives”

I) The Hard Truth about Rest and Disbelief (3:12-19)

II) The Hope Today concerning Rest for Believers (4:1-10)

III) The “How To” of Rest which is Secured in Christ (4:11-13)

Application:

1. Rest is not simply a metaphor for salvation but shows the relationship between salvation and continuing to walk with God.

2. Rest is not a call to inactivity but instead to a special kind of activity.

3. Ultimately, Rest is not found in a day nor a location.

4. For us, Rest is found and fulfilled in a person — Jesus!

Spiritual Principle: Guard your heart against unbelief and disobedience so that you do not miss the rest that only Christ gives.
