Greeted by Inner Helpers
Colossians 4:14 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Colossians 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Luke and Demas greet you. The verse signals two inner companions entering your awareness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you; in this moment they stand as two states of consciousness invited into the room of your awareness. Luke embodies the healing faculty of the I AM—the part of you that diagnoses fear, prescribes faith, and writes new stories with imagination. Demas represents the activity of appearances—the impulse to chase outcomes, to seek approval, or cling to what seems real in the outer world. Their presence is not a summons to dispute, but a tender invitation to recognize that presence is God within. When you acknowledge them as aspects of your own mind, you awaken to the love of neighbor as an outward sign of an inward order. The greeting becomes a practice: revise any sense of separation by assuming Luke tends the inner garden of health and Demas loosens the cords of attachment. Make the I AM the sovereign ruler of your inner city, and watch how the sense of being accompanied by these inner guests shifts your reality. Colossians 4:14 thus becomes a beacon: you are never alone, for your inner companions are your own God-aware self arriving to bless you.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes and imagine Luke, the beloved physician, entering your inner room with healing hands. Assume the greeting of Demas as a note of companionship and reaffirm in your heart 'I AM, I am here, and I am whole.'
