We <em>say<\/em> we are totally forgiven. And we sincerely believe our sins are forgiven. Pretty much, anyway. But there\u2019s that one deep, dark part of our lives, even our present lives, that seems so intractable, so ugly, so beyond recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&nbsp;\u201cTo the uttermost<\/em>\u201d in Hebrews 7:25 means : God\u2019s forgiving, redeeming, restoring touch reaches down into the darkest crevices of our souls, those places where we are most ashamed, most defeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than this : those crevices of sin are themselves the places where Christ loves us the most. His heart willingly goes there. His heart is <em>most<\/em> strongly drawn there. He knows us to the uttermost, and he saves us to the uttermost, because his heart is drawn out to us to the uttermost. We cannot sin our way out of his tender-care.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dane Ortlund<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":4593,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4592","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-non-classe"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4592","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4592"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4592\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4594,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4592\/revisions\/4594"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4593"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4592"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4592"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/timotheepaton.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
