Neville Goddard on 2 Timothy 2:19 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Timothy 2 in context

Scripture Focus

19Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

2 Timothy 2:19

Biblical Context

God's foundation stands firm, sealed by the knowledge that the Lord knows His own. Those who name the name of Christ are called to depart from iniquity.

Neville's Inner Vision

The foundation spoken of here is not a distant doctrine but your inner certitude—the immutable I AM under every thought. The seal is the Lord's recognition of you as His own, registered in consciousness. To depart from iniquity is to turn the thought-weariness that feeds error into disciplined imagination that honors holiness. When you accept that you are known by God and that the foundation stands beneath every changing mood, you stop chasing outer proofs and begin to live from inner alignment. Your imagination becomes the architect of your life; by repeatedly assuming the state of holiness, your outer circumstances bend into harmony. This is not striving, but recognition: a current of awareness that rewrites your life from the within, so that purity and integrity become natural expressions of the I AM you trust as your true self.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly and declare, I am known by God; the foundation of God stands within me. Then revise any impulse toward wrong by imaginatively acting in holiness as the present reality you now inhabit.
