The Inner Fire of Judgment

2 Peter 3:7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Peter 3 in context

Scripture Focus

7But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
2 Peter 3:7

Biblical Context

2 Peter 3:7 speaks of the heavens and earth kept by the same word, reserved for a day of judgment. It suggests that outer conditions reflect inner state, and that inner purification comes through the 'fire' of truth.

Neville's Inner Vision

To Peter, the heavens and the earth are not distant realms but your current life, kept in store by the Word you accept as true. The day of judgment is not future catastrophe but the moment you discern your thoughts and choose a new ruling state. The fire is the inner heat of realization that burns away untrue beliefs and old identifications with lack or separation. When you acknowledge the Word as the creative principle within, you empower a new state to stand forth. The ungodly man is the unawakened self who forgets it is the very idea of God in awareness; perdition dissolves as you deliberately assume a different I AM. Therefore, revise now: declare, 'I am the I AM conscious being, the author of my world,' and rest in the feeling of that truth until outer scenes respond. The same Word that raised the cosmos remains your constant ally, ready to be believed into actuality through imagination.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit, close your eyes, and assume the sensation of your desired state as already true. Then revise a troubling belief by affirming, 'I am the I AM; this is my world now,' and let the feeling linger until it shifts your inner mood.
