Inner Covenant Boundaries

Neville's Inner Vision

In the Neville reading, 'brethren' are the parts of you that stand in relation to the covenant with your I AM. 'Between blood and blood, between law and commandment' marks the inner currents where impulse and order meet; a thought or feeling can split your attention and threaten the inner law. The command to warn is really a call to turn your attention toward the inner statute you have accepted as truth and to remind that those states of consciousness must not trespass against the LORD within. When you notice a painful or impulsive tendency arising, you do not condemn it; you acknowledge it and revise it by re-centering in the I AM, affirming that you shall not let any claim contradict the inner law. The result is not wrath upon others but harmony within your own life, for the outer world mirrors the state of your consciousness. Thus the verse teaches vigilance in guarding the covenant; your "wrath" comes from ignoring the inner law, and your duty is to keep it bright and obeyed, so your entire life remains under one sovereign authority: the I AM you are.
