Faithfully Working

Significant Rest - Genesis & Work (Gen 2:1-3)


Listen Later

This week on the Faithfully Working podcast Addison continues in Genesis and Work. What does God's word have to say about work, calling and vocation? Turns out, a lot.
Ever feel like you need a break from work? Tired at the end of the day? Rest is a significant component of our work today. Let's explore Genesis 2:1-3 to better understand how rest corresponds with work.
Notice that our podcasting rhythms will be different for the next twelve weeks. We hope to bring you an episode a week starting with this introduction. Make sure to turn your notifications on so that you can be alerted to when the next episode is uploaded.
Quotes from the episode:
“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. (Exodus 20:8-11)
"Thou has made us for Thyself, and our hearts are restless until they find their rest in Thee." - St. Augustine
"We can't handle sin. We are the sinners. "But the Lord Jesus Christ not only can, he does. He comes; he dies; he pays the penalty for our sin. He opens the door into the presence of God for all who believe in him. Then God, on the basis of the death of Christ, pronounces the believing one justified. That one now stands before the presence of God clothed in the righteousness of Christ." (James Montgomery Boice)
