Inner Fulfillment of Prophecy: Acts 3:18

Neville's Inner Vision

Verse 18 in Acts speaks the outer record, but in the Neville sense it reveals the inner record already complete. God, the I AM within, had foreseen the Christ-suffering as a movement of consciousness, not a distant event in history. The prophets merely announced a truth: that the sufferings we endure in awareness refine us into the awareness of our true nature. When you hear that what was spoken has been fulfilled, do not seek it outside you; seek its realization inside your own consciousness. The fulfillment is the transformation of your inner states into a state of redemption—salvation from fear, bondage, and lack—by once and for all accepting the yes of Imagination and Power. Your day-to-day trials are the mental preparations that make room for the embodied realization of Christ within. By inhabiting the state that has already occurred in consciousness, you participate in the event as present truth, not distant memory. Thus you live the prophecy as your own living fact, here and now, until it is seen in your outer life as well.
