How do we know that Jesus is our Sabbath?

Answered in 2 sources

Jesus is our Sabbath rest, as He fulfills the law and provides eternal rest for believers through His finished work on the cross.

The concept that Jesus is our Sabbath is rooted in Scripture, particularly in passages like Matthew 11:28-30 where He invites the weary to find rest in Him. Under the old covenant, the Sabbath was a day of rest ordained by God, but with Christ's coming, He fulfills that requirement and becomes our perpetual rest. This means that our rest is not confined to one day a week but is found in a personal relationship with Christ, who grants us peace and rest from striving for righteousness through our own efforts. Therefore, believers observe the Lord's Day in remembrance of this truth, focusing on worship rather than ritualistic law observance.
