Neville Goddard on Acts 1:1 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Acts 1 in context

Scripture Focus

1The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

Acts 1:1

Biblical Context

Luke 1:1 states that the former treatise described all Jesus began to do and teach. The inner message is that divine activity starts in your consciousness and unfolds through you.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the former treatise is not a relic but the seed of a living pattern. Theophilus, the beloved of God in your chest, reads it now; Jesus began to do and teach, and that beginning is not past but present in your inner life. The Christ within you persists in action and instruction—doing thoughts into form, teaching your heart to discern and your will to align with truth. The Acts becomes a map of inner movements: conviction, guidance, mission, and witness that arise from the Presence of God, the I AM, that you are. When you accept this, your external world shifts to reflect the inner state, and wisdom unfolds with ease. Stay faithful to this memory of the divine beginning, and you will see your life answer to the living truth that has always been.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume: 'Within me the do-and-teach life Jesus began is now active.' Picture a simple scene where you act with wisdom and teach truth to yourself or another, and feel that inner confirmation as real in your chest.
