Neville Goddard on 2 Kings 14:6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Kings 14 in context

Scripture Focus

6But the children of the murderers he slew not: according unto that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the LORD commanded, saying, The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

2 Kings 14:6

Biblical Context

The verse asserts that each person is judged for their own sins, not for the sins of others; accountability rests with the individual.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the line of the law there is a mirror held up to your own consciousness. The 'fathers' and 'children' speak not merely of outward persons, but of inner habits and attitudes, which the I AM already knows. The statement that 'every man shall be put to death for his own sin' reveals that punishment and reward originate from your present state of awareness, not from ancient deeds elsewhere. When you feel you are condemned for another's act, you are projecting a state of guilt that remains untransformed. But when you adopt a state of personal responsibility, you rewrite the script. The inner law then becomes a gentle invitation: align your imagination with a picture of wholeness, let go of blame, and see the pattern dissolve. The world outside reflects your inner adjustment. Your task is to imagine your life as a now resolved condition, feel it with certainty, and dwell there until it becomes your permanent state.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and assume the state of personal responsibility now. Mentally declare, 'I am the consciousness that determines my outcomes,' and feel the relief of letting go of blame. Visualize a scene where you are free from others’ actions and repeat this revision daily until it becomes natural.
