Graceful Return to Inner Antioch

Acts 14:26-27 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Acts 14 in context

Scripture Focus

26And thence sailed to Antioch, from whence they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.
27And when they were come, and had gathered the church together, they rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.
Acts 14:26-27

Biblical Context

Back in Antioch, they gathered the church and rehearsed how God had worked through them, opening faith to the Gentiles. The outward voyage becomes a reflection of inner grace and the expansion of belief.

Neville's Inner Vision

Return to inner Antioch, and listen: the voyage is a return to the I AM within, where you were, in your own consciousness, recommended to the grace of God for the work you fulfilled. Grace is your innate alignment with the end you seek; your I AM is the force that opens doors. The 'work' you fulfilled is the manifestation already completed in your inner state, now witnessed as outer results. When you 'rehearse all that God had done with you,' you are rehearsing the concrete evidence of grace in your own life—the inner shifts, the turning of belief, the bringing forth of new possibilities. 'Open the door of faith unto the Gentiles' means extending belief beyond past boundaries, welcoming neglected aspects of yourself into your field of consciousness. The Gentiles symbolize all that lies outside your familiar circle; by affirming the end as already achieved, you invite them in. The return to Antioch is the sign that your state of consciousness has matured; the work is done because you have assumed it done. All things become possible within the I AM when you dwell there and move as if it were so.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the end: you are back in your inner Antioch, the church within you gathering to hear what you have accomplished. Feel the grace as already done and imagine the door of faith opened to all, especially those parts you previously denied.
