Inner Turnings of Degradation
2 Peter 2:22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Peter 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
2 Peter 2:22 portrays those who once embraced truth slipping back into old, degraded patterns, like a dog returning to vomit and a washed sow wallowing in mire.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's frame, the dog and the sow are not beasts but inner states of consciousness. The one who has tasted purity and been washed remains free in principle, yet imagination can drift and cling to old beliefs until the inner life slides back into familiar patterns—the vomit of tired thinking and the mire of past memory. This is not a cosmic verdict but the working of the law: you are the I AM, the awareness that cannot be touched by condition, and every movement of attention becomes a creative act. When you identify with lack, guilt, or separation, the outer scene mirrors that inner locale. The cure is simple: refuse to leave the original state of purity by rehearsing it as already true. Assume, feel, and dwell in the feeling that you are always washed in truth, that you are intact, and that your actions flow from that sovereign center. Thus apostasy becomes a misalignment to be corrected by stepping back into the living I AM.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare: I AM the pure consciousness, unshaken by appearances. Then feel the sense of being washed and let that state govern one moment of your day.
