Back in the days of David, the Psalms 95 writer, under inspiration of the Holy Ghost, stated that opportunity to enter into God's “rest” was still available for those who would believe, and have living abiding faith.​

Did all “provoke”? No. There was Joshua and Caleb [and those under 20, the younger generation, and thus we are exhorted to become like as unto little children in matters of hope, trust and faith; Matthew 18:3 KJB], who believed God, and thus it was accounted unto them for righteousness, and in so believing, having living faith, they lived by their faith and went into the promised land, conquering and to conquer:

Already back in the Exodus, we see the unbelief, manifested in not sabbath-keeping, and this continued throughout their wanderings:

See Hebrews 3:11-12 KJB notations.

As the peoples Israel, did not believe God, in that God would provide for them in all their needs, the people doubted and did not trust in the providence of God, in that He Himself would provide for the people everyday, and especially upon the 7th day.


Yet, the people did not enter into Sabbath-keeping, and because they did not trust God in this day by day experience, end-capped by the Sabbath of the LORD, they disbelieved also at the promise of God that they could obtain the promised land, and therefore through such, they could not enter into the earthly promised land, because of unbelief either, and neither will spiritual Israel enter into the Heavenly Canaan through unbelief and Sabbath-breaking. Also through unbelief, they did not conquer all their enemies, but many were left in the land to harrass them all their days. If sin is not put away out of the earth/land [heart], and any of it remains, it will harass, and kill, and steal and destroy all the days of its life. The “spirit of fear” must be cast out, and Love reign in the Kingdom of God, of Heaven, of the heart:

The same Everlasting Gospel as is preached in Revelation 14:6-7 KJB, is the same Gospel as given in Genesis 3:15 KJB, preached by Noah [1 Peter 1:11-12, 3:18-20 KJB], and as given unto Abraham [Galatians 3:6-8 KJB] and Israel [the peoples, that church in the wilderness; Hebrews 4:2,6; Acts 7:38 KJB], Isaiah [Isaiah 52:7; Romans 10:16 KJB] and Nahum [Nahum 1:15 KJB], all long gone, but the Gospel was still preached unto them [1 Peter 4:6 KJB].

The peoples Israel, had the same Gospel, the same Rock, the same Law [Ten Commandments] and the same 7th Day Sabbath of the Lord thy God, and the same Saviour and the same Creator, all with the same chance to believe by Biblical faith [that living abiding faith which works, bears fruit, etc]:

“... [continued from previous [age 344 par. 1-5]] In exhorting Christians to faithfulness, thus it is written: "As the Holy Ghost saith, To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness; when your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their hearts; and they have not known my ways. So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into MY REST. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.6}

"Wherefore take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To-day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end; while it is said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.7}

"For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. But with whom was he grieved forty years? Was it not with them had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness? And to whom sware he that they should not enter into HIS REST, but to them that believed not? So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.8}

"LET US therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it. For WE WHICH HAVE BELIEVED DO enter into rest, As he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest ["they shall not enter into my rest"]: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the SEVENTH DAY from all his works. And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest ["they shall not enter into my rest"]. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.9}

"Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To-day after so long a time; as it is said, To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. For if Jesus ["Joshua," margin] had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. There remaineth therefore A REST ["the keeping of a Sabbath," margin] to the people of God. For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his." Heb. 3:7-9; 4:1-10. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.10}

Now note carefully the story as it is told in these quoted words:— {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.11}

It is GOD'S REST into which by the Holy Ghost, men are exhorted to enter to-day "while it is called to-day." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.12}

This rest was prepared at the foundation of the world. For that "the works were finished from the foundation of the world," is proved by the fact that God "spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works." That this rest of the seventh day is God's rest into which men are to enter, is proved by the further fact that "in this place again" he spoke of the seventh day, "They shall not enter into MY REST. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.13}

God's rest is eternal rest. Now when God made man, he made him that he might enter into and enjoy God's eternal rest with God. However, this could be only upon the man's choice, freely made. The Lord therefore placed him on a season of probation. And in this probation, God prepared for the man, and gave to the man, the introduction to, yes, the very beginning of, this eternal rest, in order that in his probation the man might choose and enjoy God's rest with God. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.14}

When God's rest was prepared for man at the foundation of the world, it was in the seventh-day Sabbath that it was prepared. For the seventh day is the Sabbath, the rest, of the Lord thy God, and "the Sabbath was made for man." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.15}

So, the seventh day being the Sabbath, the Sabbath being God's rest, and the Sabbath being made for man at the foundation of the world, it is certainly true that it is in the Sabbath that God's rest was prepared for man at the foundation of the world. The works were finished from the foundation of the world. When the works were finished, the rest was prepared; for then "God did rest. . . from all his works." This rest was prepared in the seventh day; for "God did rest the seventh day from all his works." This rest of God's was at that time prepared for man; and the rest was made for man. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.16}

But through unbelief the man failed to enter into God's rest. He did not abide in God's work, and so he could not enter into God's rest. Through unbelief he entered into Satan's works, and so missed God's rest. God's rest never can accompany Satan's works; God's rest accompanies only God's work. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.17}

Then, though the man had failed, the rest remained; and in the offering of Jesus Christ, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, to the man was given again the opportunity to believe, and so find God's rest,—the opportunity to believe, and so to forsake Satan's works and find God's work; and, finding God's work, so also to find God's rest. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.18}

And so God's rest still remained till the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham and his seed, which is Christ (Acts 7:17; Gal. 3:16),—till the time when God would deliver his people from Egypt, from the world of sin: then he called Israel to enter into his rest,—into this rest which he had prepared for man at the foundation of the world, but into which man, through unbelief, had failed to enter, and which yet remained for the people of God. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.19}

And so God called Israel to enter into his rest—to enjoy and observe his Sabbath. For the Sabbath is the Lord's, it is God's rest; and "the seventh day is the Sabbath." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.20}

But Israel also failed to enter into God's rest; Israel would not BELIEVE, and so could not enter in. For "I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest." But "to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.21}

"What!" say you, "did Israel not keep the Sabbath?"—No; how could they, when they did not believe? "But," say you, "did they not rest on the seventh day?"—O, yes; they rested on the seventh day; but for all that they did not keep the Sabbath. There is a great difference between resting on the seventh day and keeping the Sabbath. A person might rest on the seventh day all his life, and yet never keep the Sabbath. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.22}

The Sabbath of the Lord is God's rest: only he who finds God's rest finds the true Sabbath; and only he who keeps God's rest, can truly keep the Sabbath. True Sabbath-keeping depends altogether upon whether a person finds God's rest, instead of his own, on the seventh day. Israel rested on the seventh day, it is true; but it was only their own rest that they found, and entered into, on the Sabbath day; because they did not believe in Christ, that, by finding in him God's work, they might also find in him God's rest, which they might keep. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.23} ..."
​

​

"... God's rest is spiritual; only he who is spiritual can enter into it, and only he who is of FAITH is spiritual: therefore only he who is of faith can keep the Sabbath of the Lord. And though it is true that a person might rest on the seventh day all his life without truly observing the Sabbath, yet he can not truly observe the Sabbath without resting on the seventh day; for "God did rest the seventh day," and it is in the seventh day that God's rest is found. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.24}

But Israel did not believe, and so could not enter into God's rest; "howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses," but with the vast majority it was so. And so Israel, as man at first, through unbelief missed God's rest, which was prepared at the foundation of the world, and which had waited to long for men to enter. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.25}

Yet though Israel failed to enter into God's rest, that REST did not fail; it still remains, and waits for men to enter it. Though Israel failed to discern in the seventh day God's rest, and so missed it; that rest, that Sabbath, of the seventh day did not vanish away: it still, even to-day, "remaineth," and waits for man to enter into it. For "seeing. . . [345] that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief; again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To-day, after so long a time; . . . to-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts." "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God;" and this rest is God's rest, which Adam missed, and which Israel missed; but which, in the Lord's mercy, still remains for all people to enter, and for God's people to enjoy. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 344.26}

This rest that remains is the Sabbath; for the margin of the verse gives the literal Greek: "There remaineth therefore a keeping of a Sabbath to the people of God." And this Sabbath that remains is the seventh-day Sabbath; for in this place it is written, in direct connection: "He spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works. And in this place again [he spoke of the seventh day on this wise], They shall not enter into my rest." Then seeing that some must enter into that rest, and seeing that man at the beginning, and Israel at the time of the promise, did not enter in, there remains therefore to the people of God this same rest, the keeping of this same Sabbath, which is "the seventh day." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.1}

Again: it is written that there "remaineth . . . a rest"—the keeping of a Sabbath—"to the people of God." Now that which remains is something left over, something continued of what was before. But the only Sabbath that there was before, in which was God's rest, was the seventh-day Sabbath. And as there remains a Sabbath; as whatever remains is something continued of what was before; and as the seventh-day Sabbath is the only Sabbath that there was before, in which was God's rest; it is therefore the very certainty of truth that the Sabbath which remaineth is the Sabbath of the seventh day; for "God did rest the seventh day." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.2}

Yet again: whatever remains is something left over, something continued, of what was before. The remainder is not the beginning of a thing. "That which remaineth" can not corretly be spoken of anything newly begun, of something only just now being set up. Now the most extreme claim for the origin of Sunday, the first day of the week, as a "day of rest," or "the Christians sabbath," is that it was in "the primitive church" "in the apostolic times." Therefore as, according to their own claim, that time was but the beginning of Sunday observance as a day of rest; and as what remains is something left over, something continued, of what was before, it is the very certainty of truth that this "rest," this "keeping of a Sabbath," that "remaineth to the people of God," is NOT the rest of the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, which, according to their own claim, was just then having its beginning; but IS the rest of the seventh day, the Sabbath of the Lord, which was prepared at the foundation of the world, which waited for Israel to enter in, and which, thank the Lord! yet "REMAINETH to the people of God." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.3}

Does Friend _______ say, "The Sabbath was abolished"?—God says it REMAINETH. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.4}

Does Brother _______ say, "The Sabbath of the seventh day was changed in the days of the apostles, and by the apostles"?—The word of God, written in the days of the apostles, and by an apostle, declares that it REMAINETH. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.5}

Does Brother _______ say that the keeping of the Sabbath is not for Christians? The word of God, with direct reference to the keeping of the Sabbath, "the seventh day" on which "God rested," says that "it remaineth" "to the people of God." Are not Christians the people of God? As certainly therefore as Christians are the people of God, so certainly the keeping of the Sabbath, "the seventh day," God's rest, "remaineth" to Christians. The word of the Lord says so. If "Christians" will not have it, that is for them to say; but the Lord says that it "remaineth" to them. Why should they refuse to have it remain? When God says it "remaineth" "to the people of God," how can they refuse to have it remain, and still be the people of God? {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.6}

And this "rest," this "Sabbath," of the seventh day, which "remaineth," is God's rest, is God's Sabbath; for "he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day. . . . And in this place again [he spoke of the seventh day on this wise], They shall not enter into my rest." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.7}

God is the eternal God. His rest is, therefore eternal rest. And the seventh day is the rest, the Sabbath, of the Lord thy God. Therefore the Sabbath, the rest of the seventh day, being God's rest, IS ETERNAL; and its rest is eternal rest. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.8}

It was prepared for man to enter into and enjoy, at the foundation of the world. Through unbelief the man failed to enter into it. It waited till the time which God had sworn to Abraham; yet, through unbelief, the people then failed to enter in. And still, "to-day," it remains; for "some must enter therein." "Wherefore, as the Holy Ghost saith, Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing fro the living God. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To-day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin." For he has limited a certain day, saying, still, "To-day, after so long a time; . . . TO-DAY if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.9}

Therefore to Brother _______'s "unanswerable proposition" that there is not a syllable," "neither by explicit statement nor hint," "in our whole New Testament, suggesting that the Sabbath is binding on the Christian," the answer is the indisputable truth that in the greater part of at least two chapters of our New Testament, there is an explicit treatise on the Sabbath and the obligation of God's people to observe it, covering all time "from the foundation of the world" unto "to-day, while it is called To-day." {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.10}

Yet, sad to say, even to-day, as at the foundation of the world, and as at the time of the coming out of Egypt of old, the great mass of God's professed people still will not hear his voice, but harden their hearts, and tempt hi, and grieve him, and do err in their heart, and have not known his ways: and thus still by their unbelief he is compelled to swear in his wrath, "They shall not enter into my rest,"—this blessed rest which from the foundation of the world has remained, and still remains to the people of God. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.11}

How long shall it be before God's people will believe him? Come, Brother _______, come, all God's people everywhere. "Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us to of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it." "To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts." Let us enter into God's rest—that holy rest of the blessed seventh day. For God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it; because that in it he had rested. {May 30, 1899 ATJ, ARSH 345.12} ...” - The Advent Review and Sabbath Herald, vol. 76 May 30, 1899, page 344 par. 6 – page 345 par. 12 [name withheld, to now apply to general audiences]​
