Inner Plot of Acts 23:14-15
Acts 23:14-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The leaders vow to kill Paul and craft a trap under the guise of questioning him. The scene contrasts outward legal seeming with inward violence.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider the scene not as a political plot alone, but as a map of your own inner states. The 'Paul' in you is the Truth, the I AM that would be free of fear and death. The vow and the curse are not external rites but the mind’s decision to starve itself on harmful judgments until what you fear appears to be slain. When they say 'bring him down to you... to enquire more perfectly,' they stage a veneer of care while preparing the act you resist. In Neville's terms, the entire plot is an inner movement—doubt, control, and the urge to annihilate what seems dangerous. Your work is to refuse identification with those states; assume the state of the wish fulfilled: the inner Captain—the I AM—assessing the scene with serene authority, recognizing the illusion, and pronouncing peace. Revoking the curse with the simple inner declaration, 'I am not bound by fear,' shifts your consciousness. As you feel this revision, imagination takes the lead, and the outer scene aligns with your revised state, dissolving the threat into a lesson of safety and grounded justice within.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, feel the I AM in you as the steady captain, and revise the scene by assuming the outcome you desire while feeling it real. See the outer gathering dissolve into peace as your inner state holds, and trust imagination to align events.
