Inner Hearing at Acts 7:57
Acts 7:57 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
A hostile crowd cries out, covers its ears, and rushes against Stephen, symbolizing a collective rejection of truth. This moment mirrors the inner resistance to insight within consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within your inner theatre the crowd is not someone else but a chorus of old beliefs, fears, and identifications. They cry out, stop their ears, and run upon Stephen, who stands as truth—your higher self, the whisper of the I AM within. In Neville’s terms, God is awareness, and imagination shapes reality. The crowd’s violence exposes how a state of consciousness clings to limitation when confronted with a new understanding. To redeem this, do not battle the crowd but shift the premise from fear to faith. Assume the truth you seek is already present in your awareness; revise the scene so that the inner voices cease and the listening heart remains open. When you feel it real that 'I am hearing this truth now,' the 'one accord' of belief aligns with the I AM, dissolving resistance and guiding events to reflect your inward conviction. The outward stoning becomes a symbol of the old self yielding before a persistent, loving certainty that you are, in this moment, the living consciousness that stands with truth.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and declare, 'I am hearing the truth now'; feel the inner crowd quiet and the open, receptive mind receiving the insight as real.
