The Scriptures support the claim that there is a time when God’s people will rest eternally.

The Scriptures support the claim that there is a time when God’s people will rest eternally.

Hebrews 4:6-10

6Some people experience entering that place of resting eternally. But those Israelites who first had the good message preached to them {first heard the good message} about what God promised them did not enter that place of resting, because they refused to believe God. 7But God appointed another time when we may enter that place of resting. That time is now! We know that is true because much later than when the Israelites rebelled against God in the desert, he caused King David to write what I have already quoted,

Now, when you understand what God is saying to you, do not stubbornly disobey him.

8If Joshua had led the Israelites to enter the place of resting, God would not have spoken later about another time when we could rest [MET]. So we know God was speaking about another time when some people would enter that place of resting eternally. 9So, just like God rested on the seventh day after he finished making everything, there remains a time when God’s people will rest eternally. 10Specifically, whoever enters God’s place of resting has ceased doing things to gain God’s favor, just like God ceased doing his work of creating everything.
