Inner Discernment Awakening

1 Corinthians 2:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Corinthians 2 in context

Scripture Focus

14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
1 Corinthians 2:14

Biblical Context

Plain summary: The natural man cannot receive spiritual truths. Spiritual discernment comes from a transformed inner state, not from external reasoning.

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the natural man as a fixed state of consciousness clinging to the senses. The things of God are not subjects to be argued away, but realities to be assumed into being. When you identify with the ego, you cannot discern Spirit; when you awaken to the I AM within, Spirit becomes your inner faculty of perception. The verse invites a shift of identity: you are not merely your thoughts or your body, you are the awareness that makes them appear. By imagining from the end, feeling that Spirit's truths are already true in you, you dissolve the barrier between seen and unseen. Your understanding then arises not from outer proofs, but from the inner revision that erodes the old self and births a new state of consciousness. With consistent practice, the things of God become evident as you align with Spirit and your life begins to reflect that discernment.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit quietly, declare 'I AM' as your true self, and imagine the desired Spirit-discerned truth already yours. Feel it as present now, letting the inner I AM lead your understanding.
