Inner Birth and Salvation
1 Timothy 2:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Timothy 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse anchors salvation to steadfast faith, charity, holiness, and sobriety, with 'childbearing' symbolizing the birth of one's conditions through inner states.
Neville's Inner Vision
Salvation here is not a future reward but a shift in consciousness. 'Childbearing' is the inner birth of your world through consistent inner states. Faith is your unwavering trust in the I AM within; charity is the living expression of oneness; holiness denotes consecrating the mind to divine facts; sobriety is disciplined thought and feeling. By persistently embodying these states, you align with the energy that generates your experience. The outward birth becomes the expression of an inner birth; your life unfolds from your inner monologue. The key move is to assume you are already this truth, revising any sense of lack. In that stance, salvation is the return to your natural, creative, unified state, where all things are possible through the I AM.
Practice This Now
Practice the assumption: sit quietly, repeat 'I AM faith, I AM charity, I AM holiness, I AM sobriety' and imagine you are already bearing the fruit of this inner birth in your life.
