Are you up for the True Gospel message? “A false gospel will emphasize what you’re doing."
Jesus is the supreme manifestation of the character and purpose of God. Any message that diminishes Jesus, insults the Spirit of grace. Jesus is peerless and nothing compares to him. He has become for us wisdom from God and I will boast of nothing else (1 Cor 1:30-31).
Here’s the test: A false gospel will emphasize what you’re doing (or not doing), while the true gospel will emphasize Christ’s finished work on the cross. A false gospel will make you introspective and anxious, while the true gospel will always make you Christ-conscious and grateful. (Paul Ellis)

The value of rest
We humans, Christians in particular, sometimes miss the value of rest.
What is the rest that we're called to?
Hebrews speaks of this "Sabbath rest" in Chapter 4. This is a rest from works. The works that are in opposition to faith. These works are dead. Anything apart from faith is sin.
There is only one sin mentioned in the whole book of Hebrews and that is the sin of unbelief!
Paul goes into great lengths to convince a Jewish audience that their Messiah has come n most are missing out. They are going back to the old way of the Old Covenant, the way of a works based system.
Rest opposes this type of work. Faith is a rest from human inspired works. Faith invites the Holy Spirit to inspire us toward what He has for us to walk into!
This way causes us to have peace no matter what! Our feelings may tell us otherwise, but if we're feeling pressure to perform in the name of our faith, we are believing "another gospel." The true gospel causes us to rest. His burden is light and in it we find rest for our souls! What He has for us to discover, matches how He's wired us! It's a pleasure n brings joy to do HIS works.
There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from THEIR works, just as God did from his. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.(disobedience= unbelief)
Hebrews 4:9-11
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things HE planned for us long ago.
Ephesians 2:10
Doesn't knowing that God considers you His masterpiece, encourage you toward His works for you? It's so much better than we'd ever imagined, Saint!
Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28-30
