Scoffers and the Inner Promise

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the 'last days' are not future calamities but the present moment when the mind forgets its Source. The scoffers are the voices of a habitually asleep self, walking after its own lusts, denying that the I AM is now actively shaping your world. When they ask, 'Where is the promise of His coming?' they reveal a consciousness that believes events are external and distant. In Neville's sense, the coming is not a timetable of history but the awakening of awareness that your imagination is the creative power. The 'beginning of the creation' is your own starting point in the eternal now; every apparent delay is a misalignment between what you claim and what you imagine. To remedy it is to turn from doubt to the assumption of the fulfilled Promise within the I AM. See that all things are already done in consciousness; the world merely reflects your state. By returning to the feeling of 'I am,' and by imagining the end desired as already real, the coming is not postponed but realized in your life.
