"So you see that because of their unbelief they were not able to ENTER HIS REST!"
Why do so many grave stones have the inscription, "REST IN PEACE"? It is true that we all want to find a place of peace and rest, that is why as believer's we look forward to entering Heaven. Do you long for an end to the turmoil and constant struggle of this life on earth? Our One Truth Today has a warning to the unbeliever's. You will never "REST IN PEACE". Because of your unbelief you will not be able to ENTER HIS REST! Those who do not have the Lord in their life seek peace, peace, but there is no peace! That is true here on the earth and especially in the time to come. With believer's death is the beginning of new eternal life and the ability to ENTER HIS REST! For those who have hardened their heart and rejected the Lord there is separation forever and they will never ENTER HIS REST!
In this scripture Paul's advice to everyone is to be careful that your own heart is not evil and unbelieving. If it is, this will cause you to turn from the living God, then you will become separated for eternity. Do not be deceived by sin, which can harden your heart and keep you from the Truth. Believer's who remain faithful to the end, trusting God as firmly as when they first came to Him, will share all that belongs to the Lord. The peace that passes understanding is available to them here on earth and they will certainly ENTER HIS REST, when they pass on!
Do you want peace right now here on earth? Do you want the peace that passes understanding?
When you leave this world do you want to ENTER HIS REST? Listen to the Word of God and believe His message for you and the One Truth Today. Accept the "Good News" about Salvation and open the door to your heart to the Lord Jesus Christ. You have a choice to believe or not believe. You have a choice to accept or reject the Word of God. You alone will suffer the consequences of your choice. If you refuse to believe, you must know and see that because of your unbelief you will not be able to ENTER HIS REST!
