Inner Supper Illumined

1 Corinthians 11:23-27 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Corinthians 11 in context

Scripture Focus

23For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
24And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
27Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
1 Corinthians 11:23-27

Biblical Context

Paul revisits the Lord's Supper as a remembered act of Jesus' sacrifice and covenant, warning that participating unworthily corrupts the meaning and the body of the Lord.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this text, I see Paul anchoring a living moment: the Lord's Supper is not mere ceremony but a declaration of your inner life. The bread becomes the body of your awareness, broken for you to heal a sense of separation; the cup embodies the life-blood of your consciousness, a new testament poured into your days. When you take, you are not recalling a distant event but consigning your attention to a present reality you create now. By eating, you acknowledge the inner union that has already occurred in the I AM; by drinking, you reaffirm covenant loyalty to the I AM within. The warning about unworthy reception points to entering with purity of purpose and clear desire, so the symbol can awaken the truth of the Lord's death and the coming of a fresh order in your life. Each such act enacts the death of the old self and invites the risen order to manifest as present reality through your own consciousness.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and, in imagination, declare 'This is my body, the I AM made manifest' as you eat, then 'This cup is my life in the I AM' as you drink; hold the feeling of unity for a minute.
