On the Seventh Day God Rested

     When God brought things into being through creation, He rested. I don't think that necessarily meant He took a break, as God really doesn't need to do that. Instead, consider that it meant He was finished, or it was completed. In the same way that we are a new spiritual creation, He finished us on the cross, referring to the sanctification (or our being perfected) He purchased for us, besides our justification, and redemption. This means He did all He could do for us in making us new, and He finished us, assuring us of the completeness or perfection or wholeness He will bring to pass in the manifestation of that reality. So we don't have to worry about it; just believe that what occured because of Jesus' death will be played out in us. He has made all things new, and so it was, and so it shall be. And God rested. And so should we.
