Inner Honor and Unity Now

1 Peter 2:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Peter 2 in context

Scripture Focus

17Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.
1 Peter 2:17

Biblical Context

Honor all people, cherish the community of believers, reverence God, and honor those in authority; these are inner postures you cultivate in consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, these commands are not external laws but habits of consciousness you inhabit. 'Honor all men' becomes the recognition that every person you meet is a facet of your I AM, a reflection of the one awareness you already are. When you dwell in that understanding, you treat strangers and adversaries with courtesy, because you are choosing the inner attitude that sees unity in multiplicity. 'Love the brotherhood' asks you to knit your inner community into one fabric of feeling; imagine the brethren as part of your inner circle, and your outer assembly will mirror the harmony you dwell in. 'Fear God' is reverence for the law of your own consciousness—the awe-filled trust that imagination precedes fact and that your deepest reverence is for the I AM that creates. 'Honor the king' points to ordering your inner state so that authority and discipline flow from within rather than yielding to outer chaos. Persist in the assumption that you are the source of this order, and outward relationships align with that inner posture.

Practice This Now

Assume you are the I AM that honors all and loves the brotherhood; feel this as a real state of your being, now. When a situation challenges you, revise it in imagination to reflect this inner order, and dwell there until it feels natural.
