Righteousness Now: Inner Salvation

Neville's Inner Vision

To the ear of the awakened, this line is not doom but invitation: the 'righteous' are states of consciousness you cultivate within your own mind. Salvation is not a distant reward but a lived realization of the I AM that you are aware of. If even those true states barely escape, it reveals the inner law: your world answers to your inner states, and neglecting them invites the appearance of what you call ungodly. The 'ungodly and the sinner' are simply parts of your mind that have forgotten their oneness with God; when you claim that oneness, they recede into the background. Judgment becomes a diagnostic tool, not a punishment, showing you where your attention is—what you have been imagining and insisting upon as true. By choosing to feel and affirm the presence of the I AM now, you align with the only salvation that matters: the conscious realization that you are already saved in your awareness, here and now, in every choice and impulse. The verse thus becomes a doorway to deliberate practice: return to the inner state, and the outer world follows.
