Transcript
Work is a good thing even though we work in a sin-cursed and broken world. This should remind us of the future rest coming to those who trust in Christ. A day is coming when there will be no longer a curse. Our service to the Lord will be joyful, just as it was for Adam and Eve before sin.
You see, Jesus came to earth to do his work, and he accomplished it. That’s why he cried “it is finished” on the cross. While on earth, he experienced all the trials of living in this cursed world but joyfully served his Father, even unto death. We follow his example as we look forward to our future rest, available through in Christ.
