Inner Witness Against False Testimony
Acts 6:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 6 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse depicts false witnesses charging someone with blasphemy against the holy place and the law. It also reveals how inner judgments and tradition can mirror outward condemnation.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within Neville's framework, Acts 6:13 is not about a man in history but about your own inner drama. The 'holy place' is your awakened awareness, and the 'law' is the inner standard by which you judge your life. The false witnesses are your habitual thoughts—fear, resentment, and rigid tradition—that accuse you and others, preserving a sense of separation. These inner accusers arise to keep you identified with a story of threat and justification. The remedy is to return to the I AM, the witnessing consciousness that stands beyond verdicts. By assuming the state of the already justified, whole, and blameless self, you revise the scene from within. As you dwell in that one reality, the crowd of accusations fades, because you know you are not the story but the awareness that permeates every scene. The law ceases to bind when you recognize it as life within, not external control; and the temple shines with the truth that you are the very expression of God in action.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the state: I AM the witness. Feel the inner temple brighten and let the false voices dissolve into light.
