Inner Judgment, Humble Discernment
1 Corinthians 6:4-5 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Corinthians 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
When believers face disputes about worldly matters, they should delegate judgment to those least esteemed in the church; there is no truly wise person among them to adjudicate matters between brethren.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's psychology, the verse points to the structure of your inner life: judgments about life arise from a state of consciousness. Set the 'judges' for such things to the least esteemed, i.e., your humbler, perhaps neglected aspects of self, and let your waking I AM mind discern. If you cling to the belief that a wise outer critic exists, you deny the inner power. By appointing humility as your inner judge, you invite a higher, non-personal discernment that resolves discord and restores unity. This is not about changing others, but about revising your state of consciousness until the imagined conflict dissolves. The wise man you seek is the Christ within, operating through meekness, not control; through this reversal you discover that judgment is a function of your inner state, and peace follows when the inner mind governs without identification with separation.
Practice This Now
Assume that your inner judge is the least esteemed, yet perfectly wise. Revise the belief that outer authorities decide your fate, and feel the unity and discernment as already real in the present moment.
