Return To Brethren Inner Mission

Neville's Inner Vision

On the inner stage, Paul's request to go again and visit our brethren is a blueprint for consciousness at work. Paul and Barnabas symbolize faculties of mind; the cities are states of awareness; the brethren are the inner dispositions from which action springs, blessed by the Word. To 'visit' them again means to return in imagination to the state you have already accepted as true. The 'word of the LORD' is your living awareness—the truth you affirm and act from. When you say, 'Let us go again,' you are choosing to reoccupy the same stronghold of faith, to reaffirm your trust in the conditions of your inner community. See them thriving, hear their harmony, and notice no resistance to the truth. This revision is not about chasing external change first; it is the discipline of recognizing that God (I AM) is the source within, and that your inner visitation inaugurates outer experience. If you maintain that health in your inner visitation, the outer world follows, and the brethren reveal the vitality of the new state you have assumed.
