Antioch Inner Awakening

Neville's Inner Vision

All scripture is a revelation of states of consciousness; the people and places you read are inner dispositions of mind. Barnabas departing to seek Saul represents your decision to recover a hidden energy or gift—Saul is the portion of you that has gone into the 'Tarsus' corner of your mind. When you bring him back to Antioch, you begin to form an inner community—the church—where you can teach, align, and awaken others with your awareness. The year of assembly indicates the long, patient practice required to stabilize a new state of being; thoughts, feelings, and habits must be tutored until they become natural. The moment when 'the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch' marks a shift in self-definition: you identify not with limitation, but with Christ-consciousness—the I AM that animates all you do. See this as your inner authority, not an external label. By living from that state, your outward world becomes an expression of unity, faith, and mission.
