Judas's Replacement: Inner Ministry
Acts 1:25 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Judas's fall creates a vacancy in the ministry; the apostles aim to replace him so the work can continue.
Neville's Inner Vision
Judas’s fall is not a condemnation of a man but a turning within consciousness. The 'ministry' and 'apostleship' are states of awareness you inhabit, not external offices. When a part of your consciousness slips into a transgressive pattern, the whole system shifts to protect its integrity, and another facet of you is moved to carry on the work. Thus the passage teaches inner continuity: you do not lose the mission, you realign your energy so the mission can be lived through a fresh state that remains in harmony with the I AM. The disciples choosing a replacement mirrors your own responsibility to notice what has fallen away and to invite a new inner state to take its place. Your task is to forgive the past, restore the sense of calling, and assume the state of the worker you intend to be. The 'own place' is simply the old pattern leaving room for the new structure of consciousness that fulfills the same undeniable purpose of service.
Practice This Now
Imaginative deep feeling practice: close your eyes, sense the vacancy Judas left, and revise with, 'I take part in this ministry; I am the one who fills this place.' Then dwell in the feeling-it-real as if you are already performing the work.
