Neville Goddard on Acts 2:44-45 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Acts 2 in context

Scripture Focus

44And all that believed were together, and had all things common;

45And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.

Acts 2:44-45

Biblical Context

Believers lived in community, sharing all things and distributing possessions to meet each person's need.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this passage, you are not reading a social agenda but a revelation of consciousness. The 'believers' are states of awareness within you—the I AM that you are, fully identified with divine supply. To 'have all things in common' is to acknowledge a single treasury in your mind where nothing is scarce and every need is already provided by the Source within. The act of 'selling possessions' speaks to letting go of outward symbols of security—the status, the role, the image you defend—and returning trust to the one life that flows through all. When you stop measuring life by external goods, the universal fund can circulate freely through you and your circle, meeting every need as it arises. 'As every man had need' is the natural law of consciousness when you dwell in the truth that you and God are one. Your imagination is the storehouse; your feeling is the key that turns the faucet. If you refuse lack and dwell in the feeling of joined abundance, your outer conditions align with that truth and unity manifests in your world, here and now.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the feeling of universal supply circulating through you and your circle; see each person being provided for by the one Source. Rest in the conviction that I and my neighbor are one in God, and let that oneness alter your sense of lack.
