Altar Horns of Inner Judgment
Amos 3:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Amos 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Amos 3:14 declares that God will judge Israel and, in that judgment, even the altars of Bethel will lose their power—the horns of the altar are broken and fall to the ground. It names idolatry and false worship as the target of accountability.
Neville's Inner Vision
Amos 3:14 invites you to see that the day of visitation touches more than outward crimes; it reaches the altars you keep in your own mind. The horns of the altar are the very power you give to symbols—rituals, memories, and beliefs—that you think sustain you. When God visits, those horns are cut off and fall to the ground, not as punishment but as a clearing: the outer supports lose their grip so your true worship—your alignment with the I AM, your awareness—can rise. In Neville’s language, the verse is a map of consciousness: the outer altar is a belief center you mistake for reality; the fall of the horns is the fall of fear-based power that keeps you from dwelling in present awareness. The kingdom of God is not in Bethel's stone but in the living I AM within. Practice: stand in the awareness that you are the I AM, and imagine the inner altar. Assume a new worship by revising every attachment to external symbols; feel the power of your consciousness taking the lead, here and now.
Practice This Now
Assume you are the I AM looking upon your inner altar now; revise any dependence on outer symbols and feel the truth of your consciousness as real in this moment.
