Personal Sin, Personal Responsibility

2 Chronicles 25:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Chronicles 25 in context

Scripture Focus

4But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall die for his own sin.
2 Chronicles 25:4

Biblical Context

The verse declares that individuals are responsible for their own sins and are not punished for others' sins; it emphasizes personal accountability before the divine law.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your life is the field of your inner states. 2 Chronicles 25:4—that each man dies for his own sin—speaks not of external history but of the law written in your heart. The 'fathers' and 'children' are images of your dominant beliefs and the conditions you permit. When you accept that you are not punished by someone else’s guilt, you acknowledge that your reality arises from your present state of consciousness. If you desire to change appearance, you must revise the old sense that others control your fate, and affirm that the I AM within you is the sole author of your experience. In practice, you stand as the living law, and let every thought, feeling, and choice correspond to the truth that your world flows from your inner conviction. By feeling it real—feeling that you are the I Am, not the product of others—you release inherited patterns and invite a new alignment of conditions that reflect your revised state.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and revise: I am the I Am; my outer life reveals the state of my own consciousness alone. Say, 'There is no other power to shape my fate but my own I Am.'
