What it means to labor into the Sabbath Rest.
The Sabbath Day was simply a type , Christ is now that Sabbath Rest.
There is nothing left for us to do but repent. Not just one time, but as a way of living.
This is what Romans 12 : 1-2 exhorts us to do:
12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
We are warned to enter into that rest and not as those who have heard the gospel yet it was never mixed with faith.
Hebrews 4:11-12
Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. 12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
