Light or Deception Within
2 Corinthians 11:14-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Corinthians 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage reveals that Satan may wear the appearance of light, and that so can his ministers. True discernment comes from the inner state, not outer appearances.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the I AM, Satan is not a separate wicked being but a shadow of the self when consciousness forgets its own light. The angel of light that appears on the surface points to a belief: that appearances justify a direction or motive. The ministers who seem righteous are but inner habits of thought wearing a pleasing mask; they end as they have believed, for the scripture states the end shall be according to their works. In this inner warfare, judgement and accountability are simply the honest alignment of your current state with truth. When you cling to a counterfeit virtue, you contract with a dream that fails to satisfy your deeper appetite for contact with the I AM. Yet when you refuse to be moved by clever appearances and instead return to the conviction that you are the light that creates, your inner ministers reveal their truth. Practice choosing faithfulness to the inner light, and notice how the outer world adjusts to your revised state. The true battle is within, and victory is the realization that you are the source of all light.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare 'I am the I AM; all appearances reflect my inner state.' Then revise by affirming 'From this moment I view every minister as a projection of my own belief; I choose to align with the true light within.
