Today we wrap up this series of Unplug.
What a journey it has been and I continue to get good feedback from this series.
I did some quick research on how long it takes before something becomes a habit.
Old research said you must do something 21 days and now recent studies say that it takes 66 days for something to become habit.
If you want a behavior to become habit you must do that behavior every day for 66 days for it to become a habit.
Practicing Sabbath intentionally in a weekly rhythm it would take 66 weeks for Sabbath to become a habit for you.
There are 52 weeks in the year.
Let me take you back to the beginning of this series and show you the Sabbath video from the Bible Project that we started with.
I will stop the video and highlight things we have talked about.
Sabbath Video from the Bible Project.
(Video)
(Stop 1:10)
God Creates/rest/ and fills with His presence.
Kings and Queens of the 7th day rest!
(Stop 3:27)
In the wilderness they Shabbath, stop, cease from, Festivals, every 7th year, 7x7 Year of Jubilee.
Did the Israelites stay in the promise land?
(No) Why? (Disobedience) Prophets spoke of a coming year of Jubilee Isaiah 61.
(Stop 4:30)
We didn’t highlight this a lot but what day did Jesus’s body lay in the tomb.
It rested on Sabbath.
He rose on the first day of a new week.
Jesus’s resurrection was like the first day of a New Creation.
We wrap this series up today from Hebrews 4. Turn there now.
I thought Justin did an excellent job of getting us here today.
Last week, he spoke about Jesus healing on the Sabbath.
Is Sabbath all about a bunch of rules?
Is the Sabbath about freedom and no rules?
Justin Said this (Slide)
Rest and Restoration as you walk humbly with your God.
The same God who created Sabbath came to earth as Lord of the Sabbath.
He didn’t make a burden for himself by healing people. he removed their burdens and restored them.
Lifted them out of darkness.
Unbound them from their bondage.
Watered their souls with his kindness.
Today We finish looking at
Past, Present and Future Rest
Trying to think of something that affects your past, present and future.
The best I could come up with is choosing a spouse for you students that are here today.
Your choice in a spouse or who you date now will become the past and it will impact your marriage later on, Your choice in your spouse affects your present and your choice in a spouse will affect your future as well.
I am sure this breaks down at somewhere.
Hebrews speaks of the past, present and future when it comes to Sabbath rest.
Future rest remains,
Don’t miss this future rest that is promised.
Time: Ultimate Sabbath day rest
Space: New Heavens and New Earth/ New Jerusalem
Past
They were not obedient and therefore not united with those who heard the message of the good News of the promised Messiah.
Present
We who have believed enter the rest.
Notice that this is present rest and not future rest.
He speaks of this rest for today.
We who believed enter the rest.
Phones, Technology, sports, work, success and you name it keep us busy so that we are not reminded that we currently are in present day rest because of what Jesus did for us on the cross.
He quotes Psalm 95.
The Israelites entered into the promised land correct?
(Yes) Did they stay in the promise land?
(No) They were exiled.
Why (Disobedience)
They did not enter my rest as Psalm 95 says.
Sabbath Rest
It’s something God did in the past, we enter in the present, and something still to be fulfilled.
-The Bible Project
Past, present, to Future Rest
The Ultimate rest has yet to happen.
Jesus has opened up for us to enter into this rest that is both present and future.
