As a Seventh-day Adventist Hebrews speaks loud and clear to me. It reminds me that Jesus who created mankind gave them two blessings to take with them from Eden after sin. Marriage and the Sabbath (the day of rest). Hebrews tells me that when Jesus was on the earth that he did not change nor give another day of rest to the gentiles that was different to the children of Israel, If He had then he would have spoken of another day. I do know that one can not come into the day of rest with out faith in God, because without faith in God then we are trying too keep the Sabbath by our own power and that is "works" but if we have faith and believe Gods word then the Lord can bring us into His rest doing those things that honor Him and not ourselves. We will do God works and not our own, we will stand apart from the secular world and help other to know God by our example. We can not force anyone to take the Sabbath but we can share the seeds of faith and then Gods Spirit will do the rest. God bless my brothers and sisters in faith.
