Acts 23:8 Resurrection Within

Neville's Inner Vision

To Neville, Acts 23:8 is not a history of sects but a primer on states of mind. The Sadducee represents a consciousness that refuses the continuity of life, a belief that ends at the edge of the grave. The Pharisee embodies a different inward posture: a mind that can confess both resurrection and spirit—the ongoing reality beyond form and the visitor of guides within. The verse invites me to notice that these are not external facts to be argued, but inner dispositions I can dwell in. When I assume the state 'I am' beyond the limit of death, I awaken the inner law of resurrection: the consciousness that remains, the energy that animates, the imagination that births form. Angel and spirit become faculties of awareness, not distant beings, and they answer to my imagination when I align with the I AM that never ceases. The apparent split dissolves as I refuse to debate death and instead return to the truth of life as my own expression.
