2 Hebrews 4:12-13 (ESV) For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrews 4:12-13 (ESV) Memory Verse Hebrews 4:1-16October 18, 20162

6 1 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it. 2 For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with those who listened. 3 For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, “As I swore in my wrath, ‘They shall not enter my rest,’” although his works were finished from the foundation of the world. 4 For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way: “And God rested on the seventh day from all his works.” 5 And again in this passage he said, “They shall not enter my rest.” Hebrews 4 (ESV) A Rest for the People of God Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 20166

7 6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience, 7 again he appoints a certain day, “Today,” saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.” 8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken of another day later on. 9 So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, 10 for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his. Hebrews 4 (ESV) A Rest for the People of God Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 20167

8 11 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. 12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account. Hebrews 4 (ESV) A Rest for the People of God Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 20168

9 14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4 (ESV) Jesus the Great High Priest Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 20169

10 Hebrews 4 is a transition chapter: Hebrews 4 - Hebrews 4:1-13 is a continuation of Hebrews 3Hebrews 4:1-13Hebrews 3 - Hebrews 4:14-16 provides lead-in to Hebrews 5Hebrews 4:14-16Hebrews 5 Hebrews 4:1-11 is book-ended by description in v1, “…promise of entering his rest still stands…” with exhortation in v11, “…make every effort to enter that rest…” Hebrews 4:1-11 v1v11 Hebrews 4 Observation 1 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201610

11 The “rest” is a spiritual rest; a spiritual equivalent to possession of the Promised Land; conveys “security, contentment, satisfaction and peace” (Hagner) Argument: - God finished His work and rested, so rest has been available since the Creation - The Exodus Jews failed to enter their rest - God later said (Psalm 95) rest is still availablePsalm 95 Hebrews 4 Interpretation 1 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201611

12 Canaan rest for Israel is a picture of our rest in Christ when we surrender to him (Wiersbe) - Salvation rest when we place our faith in Him (peace with God, Romans 5:1)Romans 5:1 - Submission rest when we yield and learn to obey Him (peace of God, Philippians 4:6-8)Philippians 4:6-8 We enter rest by believing; rest enters us by obeying God by faith & surrendering to His will Hebrews 4 Application 1 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201612

13 Observation: Hebrews 4:11 is a call to be diligent; not “drifting” (Hebrews 2:1) Hebrews 4:11Hebrews 2:1 Interpretation: Meet high standard, stay true, set the example Apply Joshua’s guide: “But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” (Josh 24:15b)Josh 24:15b Failure to do so has consequences (Josh 24:19-22)Josh 24:19-22 Application: Exhortation for us to follow through (Josh 5:13-15)Josh 5:13-15 Results follow over time (Joshua 24:31)Joshua 24:31 Hebrews 4 Obs/Interpret/App 2 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201613

14 Observation: vv12-13 helps us see ourselves as we are; the Word: vv12-13 - Cuts hearts of sinners with conviction (Acts 5:33)Acts 5:33 - Defeats Satan (Ephesians 6:17)Ephesians 6:17 - Penetrates to expose inner heart of man Interpretation: God sees our hearts; we don’t know ourselves (Jeremiah 17:9)Jeremiah 17:9 Application: We can be honest with God, trust His will, and obey Him Hebrews 4 Obs/Interpret/App 3 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201614

15 Hebrews 4:14-16 – Jesus the Son of God Hebrews 4:14-16 - Jesus (Savior) identifies His humanity and His ministry - The Son of God confirms His Deity Jesus’ position is the great High Priest - Jesus passed through the heavens (2 Corinthians 12:2)2 Corinthians 12:2 - Jesus is enthroned at right hand of God the Father Hebrews 4 Observation 4 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201615

16 Our Savior unites humanity and Deity so he can bridge the gap and bring people to God; Jesus Christ is both fully God and fully human He sits on throne of grace - Open to approach by all believers; not veiled - Mercy: God doesn’t give us what we deserve - Grace: God gives us what we don’t deserve Hebrews 4 Interpretation 4 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201616

17 Don’t give up our profession of faith when we are going through trials Returning to old ways = Denying our confession No need to return to old ways because we now have direct access to God’s throne room - Our savior has been tempted and persecuted - He tore veil of temple and opened heaven to us Hebrews 4 Application 4 Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201617

18 1.Compare and contrast the rest promised to people of Israel wit rest available now to God’s faithful people. See Hagner, page 72, diagram. 2.Describe a “Joshua” sequence in your life that required diligence & faith that resulted in rest. 3.God’s Word can illuminate our understanding of own inner thoughts and desires. How do you take hold of God’s promise in Hebrews 4:16 to master those impulses and live in faith?Hebrews 4:16 Hebrews 4 Discussion Questions Hebrews 4:1-16 October 18, 201618

19 The High Priesthood of Christ Review: Hebrews 1 - 4Hebrews 1 - 4 Study: Hebrews 5Hebrews 5 Exodus 28 Matthew 26:36-46 1 Peter 2:1-3 Romans 8:35-39 Encountering Chapter 5, pages 81-87 Next Week Hebrews 4:1-16October 18, 201619
