Inner Confession of Christ
1 Corinthians 12:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Corinthians 12 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
1 Corinthians 12:3 states that no one speaking by the Spirit calls Jesus accursed, and only by the Holy Spirit can one declare that Jesus is the Lord.
Neville's Inner Vision
Listen: Paul does not condemn speech; he guards the source. The Spirit of God is not a distant creed but the inner voice of I AM within you. To call Jesus accursed is to deny the Christ-present reality inside your own consciousness; to declare Jesus is Lord is to acknowledge that the Lord already dwells there, revealed by the Holy Spirit. This confession cannot originate in the carnal mind; it blossoms from the interior act of accepting your true state. When you cultivate the awareness that you are the living idea of Christ, any word naming Jesus as Lord arises as a natural function of that inner state. The Holy Ghost is your higher self, the activity of imagination aligning with truth. Sit in stillness and feel the I AM; let the feeling that Christ is Lord within you rise, and watch your outer world rearrange to reflect that inward confession.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, place a hand on your heart, and affirm, I am the Lord within; feel the Spirit awaken as you dwell in that assumed state for several minutes. Let that feeling color your next words and choices.
