Make every effort to enter that rest

Hebrew 4:1-11
Make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following their example of disobedience.
It still remains that some will enter that rest, an those who formerly had the gospel preached to them did not go in, because of their disobedience.
Psalm 95:7,8 "So I declared on oath in my anger, 'they shall never enter my rest.'"
The parallel is made more explicit. The 'rest' God spoke of was more than just a stable and secure life in the land he had promised. Through the psalmist, hundreds of years after Joshua's day.
God was still appealing to people to enter his rest. There is a spiritual counterpart to the promise land, and the passport to it is faith.
Why?
God's resting-place has existed from the time of the creation. It is still there. We enter into that eternal rest, God's peace, as we trust him and take him at his word.
Enter the rest is the peace of God, and the rest place is located in heaven one day we will enter with eternal life.
How?
Make every effort to enter the rest. Faith is gained after many testify, hold on it!
