How do we know that rest is possible for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Rest is possible for Christians through faith in Jesus Christ, who has completed the work of redemption (Hebrews 4:10).

The possibility of rest is firmly rooted in the completed work of Jesus Christ. Hebrews 4:10 states that 'he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from His.' Just as God rested after creation, Jesus rests after accomplishing redemption. When we believe in Him, we are called to enter into this rest, ceasing from our own efforts to save ourselves and resting in His finished work alone.
