Every single person lives their life in pursuit of something they believe will grant them rest. Rest means more than just the cessation of activity or a temporary respite from work. No, rest means complete fulfillment, when a human being attains the end for which God created him or her. The great theologian Augustine in his famous work Confessions writes, “Because you have made us for Yourself… our hearts are restless till they find their rest in You.” Augustine’s recognizes one of the key themes of Hebrews 3:1-4-13 — that only in the pursuit of Christ do we find lasting rest. God made us to worship him which means all sin pulls us away from our ultimate purpose. Sin hardens us to the goodness of God and leaves us without rest. Repentance turns our mind and body away from the corrupt darkness and evil in the world and in our hearts that we might receive the only thing that brings eternal satisfaction — God himself. This is Understanding Hebrews.
