Those who really want to grow spiritually need this truth.
Men have fought and died over which day is the Sabbath day and how to keep it holy. They died not knowing the spiritual secrets of the sabbath.
Most denominations say it is Sunday. Several claim that it is on Saturday, most notably of which are the Jews. Saturday is the 7th day of the week, after all. But their angst is misdirected; sadly, they are all missing the boat.
Most Christians will tell you that the Sabbath day is important, for God gave the 4th Commandment to men: “Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy” (Exodus 20:8).

I have always loved what Jesus stated as Mark recorded it, Man was not made for the Sabbath, but the Sabbath was made for man. The Sabbath is the shadow of the REST (like you stated) that is to come as one of the promises of abiding IN Christ Jesus. That is the ONLY place that true rest can come from and Jesus Himself made that very clear in several Scriptures. I love that you are sharing this as it is sooooo needed in the True Church, the Body of Christ, today!! God bless!
