Ransom of Life: Inner Value Realized

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 21:30 sets a ransom upon a man, but the law is really a mirror of your inner state. The price you see laid upon you is the measure of the thought you have about yourself. If you feel condemned, the mind has become debtor to some outward authority; if you feel free, you recognize that freedom was yours all along. In Neville’s terms, the ransom is not paid to a judge but negotiated within the I AM, the living awareness you are. When you assume a new state—one in which you are already ransomed, already safe—you alter the currency of your experience. The external penalty remains only as long as your imagination continues to consent to it. By imagining yourself as the one who pays no more debt, you release grace and salvation; you reinterpret “whatsoever is laid upon him” as the belief you once entertained and now revise. Hold the feeling that you are valued beyond any charge, and your world rearranges itself to reflect that inner valuation. The debt vanishes as you realize you are the ruler of the price you pay.
