Working from Rest

Heb 4:1 (NASB)

Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it.

Rest• Rest from Works

• Work from Rest

Heb 4:9-11 (NLT)

So there is a special rest still waiting for the people of God. 10 For all who have entered into God's rest have rested from their labours, just as God did after creating the world. 11 So let us do our best to enter that rest. But if we disobey God, as the people of Israel did, we will fall.
