Neville Goddard on 2 Peter 1:10-11 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Peter 1 in context

Scripture Focus

10Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

11For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

2 Peter 1:10-11

Biblical Context

The passage urges believers to diligently confirm their calling and election, for doing so ensures steadfastness and a generous entrance into the eternal kingdom.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, Peter does not bid you chase an external status; he directs you to the state of consciousness by which you already belong. Your 'calling' and 'election' are the inner recognition that you are one with the I AM and that the everlasting kingdom is your present atmosphere. If you give full attention to the thoughts, feelings, and choices that spring from that state, you will not stumble, for you are standing in the truth that cannot fall away. The entrance into the kingdom comes as a natural consequence of living from the end; when you imagine and dwell as the man or woman who already possesses the kingdom, your steps align with its coming. Do these things—not as a ritual to obtain something distant, but as a revision of your inner assumption—and the outer events become faithful signs of your inner alignment. Remember, God is awareness, and the kingdom is the steady employment of that awareness in daily life. Your assurance rests in the I AM you persistently inhabit, not in external assurances.

Practice This Now

Assume, right now, that you are already called and chosen. Spend a minute each morning in the throne-room of your mind declaring, 'I am elect, I am entering the everlasting kingdom,' and act from that end today.
