Unknown Yet Known: Inner Living

2 Corinthians 6:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Corinthians 6 in context

Scripture Focus

9As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;
2 Corinthians 6:9

Biblical Context

The verse presents an inner paradox: outwardly unknown, yet inwardly known. We die to old life yet live; we are chastened, and yet not killed.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the psychological mirror of 2 Corinthians 6:9, the "unknown" and the "well known" are states of consciousness, not distant places. God is the I AM within, and the world is only a projection of your inner condition. To be 'dying' is to release attachment to former identifications; as you let go, life reappears in the form of the living I AM that no circumstance can extinguish. 'As chastened' is the disciplined attention you bring to your thinking; you are not killed because the life that animates you is the eternal presence, the living reality behind every sensation. Remember: the visible is but the effect of an unseen cause. When you affirm, 'I am known by the I AM in me,' you stop seeking approval outside and awaken to a threshold where the inner man rises, unshaken by trials. This is the resurrection you confess—not tomb-bound, but state-bound. By maintaining this inner posture, you shift the entire field of experience; outcomes express the already-present life of your consciousness, not the wavering of circumstance.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, feel the I AM at your center, and revise the scene: you are already living, the trial resolved. Let the sensation of 'life here' replace fear and act from that assured state.
