• What is the difference between those who go to heaven and those who don’t?

• Why is it called, ‘rest?’

• What works we finished from the foundation of the world?

• How can this be?

• Does this diminish the work of Jesus done on the cross?

READ 4:6-10

• Why does the writer make such a big deal out of ‘today?’

• How does this bring us great comfort?

• What does is tell us about those who don’t yet believe?

• How is the Divine Service a preview of heaven rest?

READ 4:11-13

• Given that we desire to enter into eternal rest, what shall we do?
