\"\"<\/a>But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.<\/p>\n

Acts 1:8<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Unto the farthest measure, marker, and beyond. \u00a0To least of the least, to the last of the last. \u00a0Paul said that it was the apostles that were carried away like those condemned to die. \u00a0Every day they faced martyrdom, elements, desolation, and infirmities of the flesh. \u00a0And, every day, the Lord strengthened them.<\/p>\n

Unto the uttermost parts of the Earth. \u00a0Unto the farthest of the far, and then some. \u00a0The last mile can seem the most expensive, but it is the most profitable. \u00a0What is the price of one soul? \u00a0What is the price of eternal judgement?<\/p>\n

Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.<\/p>\n

1 Thessalonians 2:16<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The uttermost wrath had come. \u00a0And, the uttermost judgement. \u00a0For they filled up their sins by forbidding us to speak. \u00a0Thus the end had come, thus their judgement was assured. \u00a0Where there is no light, men can only walk in darkness, and to those who would prevent the light from being shine, it is there that only God that can break through.<\/p>\n

Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 7:25<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For in salvation\u00a0He is quite capable to save to the uttermost. \u00a0He prays, yearns, and\u00a0intercedes\u00a0on our behalf. \u00a0When all else fails, we have an intercessor in Heaven. \u00a0If we can touch and agree with any other soul, He is there with us, and this three-fold cord is not easily broken.<\/p>\n

Who can pull from His hand? \u00a0He is mighty to save to the uttermost, and He will, so long as we call.<\/p>\n

So, the Gospel proclamation goes forth. \u00a0To the uttermost, beyond the uttermost, and for the uttermost.<\/p>\n

If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;
\nEven there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.<\/p>\n

Psalm 139:9-10<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wherever we go, He is able to find us. \u00a0In Him, we do not escape. \u00a0To the farthest extent of all of creation, we are visible to Him. \u00a0Our every thought, impulse, and action is laid bare. \u00a0And, in the uttermost, he is with me, and holds me. \u00a0What have I to fear? \u00a0Where have I to go?<\/p>\n

And five cubits was the one wing of the cherub, and five cubits the other wing of the cherub: from the uttermost part of the one wing unto the uttermost part of the other were ten cubits.<\/p>\n

1 Kings 6:24 KJV<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For He overshadows me, as I take refuge in His secret place. \u00a0I am sheltered to the uttermost, because of His loving kindness. \u00a0He searches me in my deepest place and knows me, even there. \u00a0Even in the shadows, I am found in Him, and I am held. \u00a0There is no distance to great, and no pressure too strong. \u00a0For He Himself, dwells under the uttermost shelter of the wings of the cherubim, not for need, but of worth. \u00a0Of Glory.<\/p>\n

For this is our God. \u00a0And, this is our King.<\/p>\n

Who is this King of Glory? \u00a0The Lord, Strong and Mighty, He is the King of Glory.<\/p>\n

Who is this King of Glory? \u00a0The Lord mighty in battle, he is the King of Glory.<\/p>\n

And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.<\/p>\n

Mark 13:27<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And when that last day comes, when the end of the end of the end is nigh, He has not forgotten. \u00a0He sees, and He knows the breadth, the width, the length, and height of a man. \u00a0He knows our frame, that we are dust.<\/p>\n

And, as Job exclaimed, when my skin is rotted and gone, in my flesh, I will see God.<\/p>\n

For the one true God has shed His light for all men in Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

And His command stands throughout all our generations. \u00a0Go, preach the gospel, in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the Earth.<\/p>\n

For the greatest thing this world has ever known is not from it, but came from above. \u00a0The most wonderful thing, Love Himself, came down, became flesh, and dwelt among us.<\/p>\n

And, so we preach, proclaim, until they take our head.<\/p>\n

Until we stand on that sea, singing the song of the Lamb.<\/p>\n

Forever as He gives us leave, only to pause, and with the elders, cast down our crowns, and sing.<\/p>\n

Holy! Holy! Holy! is the Lord God Almighty. \u00a0Who was, and is, and is to come.<\/p>\n

Worthy is He.<\/p>\n

Great and mighty is the Lord our God.<\/p>\n
