What Is Evil
Part 6We cannot enter into His rest unless God gives us time off our own labor so that we could LEARN under the light yoke (of repentance see Jer 31:18-19)(Mat 11:28-29); And this rest which needs to be entered into, remains (Heb 5:9-10).
Has God given YOU time off “your work” so that you can labor in His word? (Heb 4:10-12); We can only enter into this rest providing we cease from OUR OWN works, so that we can labor into this rest (4:10-11); Without which we are in UNBELIEF (4:11).
Can you hear His voice/word “TODAY”, so that your heart would not become hardened into the above unbelief? (Heb 4:7-6); Note: Jesus said, He can give us rest from our work, so that we can take the time to LEARN and find this rest for our soul (Matt 11:28-29).
Those who are doing “THEIR OWN WORK” (are not laboring in the word of God) and these have another god, wherein they are in the bitter counsel of the wicked workers of iniquity (self-works) which is against those who are perfect (Ps 64:2-4).
HAS GOD CRUCIFIED YOU FROM THE WORLD THAT BELIEVES THAT WE CAN WORK, RATHER THAN GOD WORKING? (Gal 6:14); The Sabbath is all about us taking at least one day without “our own work, ways, or pleasure” (But in His word, will, and work) (Is 58:13).
Are YOU subject to what GOD is doing, OR are you making God subject to what YOUR doing?
Evil has its “own way”, which is all about pride in all of its haughtiness (Prov 8:13); The evil way is NOT “the way of truth unto life” that has no one coming unto the Father, but by Jesus (Jn 14:6); Defined as; by the faith of Christ (Gal 2:17); And the only way we can have the faith OF Christ is providing we ASK God to crucify “US” with Christ, so that it would no longer be “US” living (for our own selfish selves) but Christ living in us (so that we can live unto God for others), and all of this is so that we would not frustrate the GRACE of God (Gal 2:20-21).
Matt 12:1-14
12:1 At that time Jesus went through the grainfields on the Sabbath. His disciples were hungry and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. 2 When the Pharisees saw this, they said to him, “Look! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath.”3 He answered, “Haven't you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry? 4 He entered the house of God, and he and his companions ate the consecrated bread — which was not lawful for them to do, but only for the priests. 5 Or haven't you read in the Law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple desecrate the day and yet are innocent? 6 I tell you that one greater than the temple is here. 7 If you had known what these words mean, 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the innocent. 8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath .”
9 Going on from that place, he went into their synagogue, 10 and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, they asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?”
11 He said to them, “If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out? 12 How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”
13 Then he said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out and it was completely restored, just as sound as the other. 14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.
NIVThe sabbath rest is doing the will of the Father. Resting from your works to do His. The OT sabbath was a foreshadow. The fulfillment of that is walking in the Spirit, just as you have said. It has nothing to do with “no physical labor” on a particular day of the week.
John 5:16-18
16 So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews persecuted him. 17 Jesus said to them, “My Father is always at his work to this very day, and I, too, am working.”
NIVMatt 7:21
21 “Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
NIVMatt 12:50-13:1
50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”NIV
John 8:54-55
54 Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father , whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me.
NIVJohn 10:37-38
37 Do not believe me unless I do what my Father does.
NIVGod made several Covenants with the People of God. I do have a question to you. What Coenant are we under?

GRACE, which is all about God working, not us working
