The teachings of the Christian faith come "from the top down." But not because they are oppressively imposed on us. Rather, they tell us things about God that are too good to be made up, things that we would never believe unless God himself revealed them to us by his Spirit. This week we listen as the Holy Spirit teaches us that only in Jesus can we find spiritual rest. Our natural inclination is to think that the way to get a job done completely and correctly is through work. God teaches his people that rest is a gift rather than something that is earned. The Old Testament day of rest pointed ahead to the perfect and permanent rest found in Christ.
