Inner Righteousness Revisited

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Ezekiel’s scene you are addressed not as a distant statute but as the observer of your own state. The terms righteous and wicked refer to inner dispositions, not outsiders wearing labels. The day of transgression exposes that consciousness itself, not a code, is what endures. If you trust to your own righteousness and sin, you separate your present life from your true being, and those supposed righteousnesses go unremembered in the moment you fall. This is not punishment but a summons to return to the I AM—the living awareness that never changes. The cure is not more works but a shift in identification: assume you are already alive in God, here and now, regardless of conduct. Feel it real that your life is sustained by the present act of awareness, not by yesterday’s virtuous acts. Imagination fashions that reality; until you experience this new state, you’ll drift between virtue and fault. So dwell in the implication of the I AM within you, and let every turn from error be a return to your true self—a continual renewal in the eternal living you.
