"He is able to save to the uttermost those that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever lives to make intercession for them." ~Hebrews 7:28

Uttermost = panteles =

Completely /perfectly / utterly.

Complete perfection.

Panteles rooted in telos =

To set out for a perpetual goal.

Consider Luke 13:11

A woman with a great infirmity for 18 years.

Bowed down with the infirmity.

She could in no wise lift herself up.

Enter the Lord of the uttermost.

English = The greatest amount or degree possible.
Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?

The curse is undone! The great divide separating us from our ABBA is closed by the King of all kings, the Master of reconciliation.

Our ABBA

The Creator is the Centre of His universe. We His created ones are not. We are mere specks, but He reaches out of Himself to enfold us to Himself through the Master of triumph, the Lord Jesus Christ.
