Neville Goddard on Acts 25:18-20 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Acts 25 in context

Scripture Focus

18Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:

19But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.

20And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.

Acts 25:18-20

Biblical Context

The accusers bring questions born of superstition about a dead Jesus. Paul asserts that Jesus is alive and chooses inner judgment over the external court.

Neville's Inner Vision

In this moment, the outer scene reflects your inner state. The 'accusers' are restless thoughts, the 'dead Jesus' the old story of separation. Paul’s claim that Jesus is alive becomes your inner certainty that life is always present now. When you doubt such questions, you are invited to turn the gaze inward, toward the I AM that animates you. The journey to Jerusalem symbolizes a retreat to the inner seat of decision, where you affirm life over limitation and grant the living Christ permission to govern your experience. The resurrection is not a distant event but a present, felt reality—an inner verdict that your circumstances are alive with meaning. Trust that the outer world cannot override this inner revelation when you persist in the consciousness of life as your true state. In this light, faith is not belief about facts but the awareness that you are the living I AM capable of renewal here and now.

Practice This Now

Assume right now: I am the living I AM; all life flows through me. Close your eyes, repeat 'I am alive now,' and feel the sense of aliveness as your inner verdict, not a future prediction.
