Jesus is our Sabbath. We rest in him. The Sabbath day was a shadow of rest in Jesus. Keeping the Sabbath is not rest in Christ. It is part of the law which can not enter you into rest only God's grace through your faith can do that. Trusting in the work of Jesus on the cross is how we find rest not a work of the flesh.
You are wrong. It isn't faith and words, but deeds. Therefore the old saying, "action speaks louder than words". Jesus worked on the sabbath, as many do today. AND HE MADE IT A POINT THAT MOST PEOPLE DO WORK.
The pharisees accused Jesus' disciples of working on the Sabbath, not Jesus. Plus, is eating really 'working'? They were hungry and picked grain and ate it. He healed someone, but is that really 'work' to Jesus? If He started building a chair in His shop that would seem more of a real Sabbath violation in my view. Matthew 12.
