Inner Covenant Beyond Judgment

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the scene as a mirror of your own states of consciousness. The circumcision faction signals a habit of judging by outer rules, while the meal with the uncircumcised marks a moment when you listen to the I AM rather than to separation. In Neville's understanding, God is not a distant veto but the I AM—the sentience that claims what you accept as real. When you imagine Peter's confrontation, revise the inner premise: you are not divided from those you call other; your inner kingdom accepts by grace, not by ritual. The controversy dissolves as you refuse to suspend fellowship with any part of yourself; you move toward true communion where law is transmuted into living relation. Notice how your attention determines the boundary: kept in place by fear, it narrows; released in faith, it expands. The moment you assume you are already united in the I AM with all beings, the sense of separation evaporates, and you walk in a realm where faith and trust become one, and grace becomes your daily experience.
