Little Children Forgiven Now

Neville's Inner Vision

You are addressed as 'little children' to remind you that forgiveness is not distant, but a present state of awareness. In Neville's teaching, the verse points to the I AM within you—the true self whose name represents your divine nature. Sins, then, are not crimes etched in time but mistaken identifications that arise in consciousness. When you rest in the authority of the Christ within, forgiveness is realized as a shift in your inner disposition: you recognize and claim your forgiveness by pure awareness, for His name's sake means for the functioning of the divine name within you. The inner shift releases you from guilt and invites a conscious alignment with your real nature. Repeat: you are forgiven by the I AM that you are, here and now. Let this assurance settle into your heart, and observe how your outer life begins to reflect that inner serenity. The verse invites you to trust the inward witness of forgiveness, not a past act applied to an uncertain future, but the present recognition of your true identity.
