Edification, Peace, and Unity
2 Corinthians 13:10-11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Corinthians 13 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Paul writes that his authority is for edification, not destruction, and he urges the brethren to be of one mind and live in peace. He promises the God of love and peace will be with them.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the inner theatre of your life, being absent or present is a state of consciousness. The power Paul speaks of becomes your innate capacity to edify your world—when you stop fighting with others and align your inner thoughts, you invite true unity. Be perfect translates to wholeness in your perception; be of good comfort means clothing yourself in inner ease. To be of one mind is to harmonize your inner dispositions—thoughts, feelings, and prayers—so your outward relationships echo that unity. To live in peace is not subject to external conditions but to the quiet assurance of the I AM within, the God of love and peace that attends your every moment. When you choose to imagine yourself as already at peace and in oneness with others, you’re not denying reality; you are rewriting it from the inside out. The presence you seek is the consciousness that holds all together, a constant vibration of love guiding your day.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: in a moment of discord, close your eyes and assume you are already one mind with the other person; feel the God of love as your constant presence and declare, 'I edify; we are one; peace is now.'
