Neville Goddard on 2 Timothy 3:6 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Timothy 3 in context

Scripture Focus

6For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,

2 Timothy 3:6

Biblical Context

Deceivers slip into homes and captivate vulnerable minds, drawing them away by various lusts.

Neville's Inner Vision

These intruders are not distant people but states of consciousness sneaking into the quiet rooms of your mind when you momentarily forget who you are. The 'house' is your life, and the 'silly woman' reflects a mind that is gullible to sins and to divers lusts—fear, longing, distraction. The verse reveals that manipulation begins in the inner theater; you become captive whenever you identify with a thought or emotion. The cure is simple and intimate: return to I AM, the steady awareness that you are the ruler of your inner world. Observe the invading image, then revise it: 'I am not this thought; I am the I AM, and I govern what enters my awareness.' In that posture, intrusions lose gravity, discernment grows, and you stand free from transient desires. The prophecy here is not doom but invitation—that consciousness can govern itself and re-create reality from stillness and faithfulness to the I AM.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Close your eyes and imagine the I AM at the door of your inner house, gently turning away any incoming thought or impulse. Then declare, 'I am the observer; I govern what enters my mind, and I revise any belief that does not serve the truth of I AM.'
