Inner Birth and Love Practice

1 Peter 1:22-23 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Peter 1 in context

Scripture Focus

22Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:
23Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
1 Peter 1:22-23

Biblical Context

Peter says believers purify their souls by obeying truth through the Spirit and must love one another sincerely; they are born again by the imperishable Word of God.

Neville's Inner Vision

You are not merely told to be good; you are invited to awaken to a new state of consciousness. The purification described is the result of choosing to align your inner being with truth through the Spirit, which reveals itself as unfeigned love among your brothers and sisters. The phrase 'born again' is not a future event but a present realization: you are born of an incorruptible seed—the living Word of God, which endures forever—because the Word corresponds to your eternal I AM. This living Word is the pattern of your awareness, the unchanging law that remains when appearances change. When you accept this, you see yourself as already renewed, already connected to the eternal essence within. The practical result is a shift in your inner state that manifests as purified actions, sincere affection, and fidelity to your true nature. Your world then mirrors that inner alignment, and love becomes a continuous, fervent expression rather than a mere sentiment.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling: I am purified by obeying the truth through the Spirit; I love the brethren with a pure heart fervently; I am born again by the incorruptible Word of God. Hold this as your real state for several minutes and let it reshape your perception of others and yourself.
