Day of Rest

Dear Mr. Froese,I love your magazine. Thank you for recently starting my gift subscription to my brother in prison. So far he enjoys it too.Since you’re still getting letters about the Sabbath, I thought I would chime in too. You are right to quote Colossians 2:16. I believe also Hebrews 4 has a lot to say about the “7th day” rest; for us (the Church), it is much more than just a day of the week. We must enter into that rest and cease from our own works.I remember asking my pastor once about all the different translations of the Bible in English. He said non-believers aren’t staying away because they can’t decide what translation is best, or what food is ok to eat, or what day to rest—but if Satan can get us to argue among ourselves about such things, that may keep them away.We need to remember that the non-believing world is watching us, and we should be focusing on living in the Spirit to produce fruit. “Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest…”-K.
