We rest from our works to keep the Sabbath day holy Exo20:8-11 why Jesus and the apostles were going to church Luke4:16 Acts18:4, reading the Bible Acts 13:44 Acts 15:21, praying Acts 16:13 and doing things to keep the Sabbath day holy, honoring God Isa58:13. We do not enter into the Sabbath, we keep the Sabbath day holy Exo20:8, its something man does Isa56:2 , we enter into Christ rests, through faith and obedience. Those who enter His rest also cease from their works Heb4:10 as God did, on the seventh day Heb4:4 Exo20:8-11On the Sabbath, we rest from our works. If we are in Christ, then we have entered the Sabbath…
Hebrews 4:9-11
The alternative would be to keep toiling to earn your salvation.
People have sadly misunderstood Paul and have taken any obedience to God's commandments to an extreme as bad and disobeying God is good. This is never what Paul taught or meant. While we can't save ourselves by keeping God's commandments, no one is saved not keeping them Mat7:23 1John2:4 Rev22:15 Heb10:26-30 they can only be kept through Jesus Christ John15:4-10, they are a result of salvation Rev 14:12 Rev22:14, not a means to it. Not keeping them one is in rebellion to God Rom8:7-8 and only God can define His commandments and how to keep them and the mouth of the Lord has spoken on this subject clearly, He even personally wrote it out for us.
