"Jesus is my Sabbath rest."

You've heard it. Maybe you've said it. It's usually built on Hebrews 4 and the word in verse 10 — sabbatismós — which means the keeping of a Sabbath rest.

But there are two words that sound identical and mean opposite things.

R-E-S-T is what Christ offers.

W-R-E-S-T is what Peter warned about — and he used it about Paul's own letters. The Greek behind it, strebloō, means to twist, to turn awry, to torture, to put on the rack, to pervert.

One letter. Two entirely different gospels.

In this episode I walk through the verses that get quoted — Galatians 2:16, Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 5:1 — and then the verse that comes immediately after each one, the one that almost never gets read out loud. Galatians 2:17. Ephesians 2:10. Romans 6:1-2.
