Lord of the Sabbath

Speaker:
Passage: Matthew 11:28-30
Service Type:

Part 3 in the series, “Entering God’s Rest” (July 2019). In the final message on entering Gods’ rest, we look at what Sabbath rest means for the Christian in light of their relationship with Jesus. When Jesus says, “Come to me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest,” what does he mean? The answer comes from learning about Jesus’ understanding of the Sabbath, his observance of the Sabbath, and his declaration that he is “Lord of the Sabbath.” Christians have a unique opportunity to enter God’s rest in a way that no one before the coming of the Messiah could enjoy. Rest in Christ promises a life empowered by his finished work: a life of love, grace. restoration, and fullness. But he must become Lord of our Sabbath before this rest can occur.
