Cleansed Altar, Inner Sacrifice
Ezekiel 43:22-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ezekiel 43 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
On the second day, a blemishless goat is offered for sin, and the altar is cleansed as it had been with the bull. After cleansing, a blemishless bull and a ram are offered with salt as burnt offerings to the LORD.
Neville's Inner Vision
Picture the altar within as your current state of consciousness. The second-day goat sin offering is the inward movement of acknowledging fault without clinging to it, a pure, blemish-free act that begins the cleansing. The ritual of cleansing the altar is not a formality but a revision in awareness: as you observe the old patterns—guilt, limitation, fear—declare them washed away by the light of your I AM. With the altar made clean, the bull and ram appear as the next phase of your realized state; the bull embodies strength aligned with truth, the ram vitality yoked to righteousness, and both must be unblemished because you require no scars on your new soul-body. Salt is cast by the priests, a symbol of preservation and consecration—your discipline to maintain the purity you have chosen. This is true worship: not ritual compliance, but aligning with the LORD within and letting reality bend to your declared state. The sequence—confession/cleansing, then consecration by salt—marks a shift from judgment to devotion, from problem-thinking to state-affirming power.
Practice This Now
Assume you are already cleansed. Visualize presenting the small goat and then the bull and ram, the altar washed, salt sprinkled, and feel your consciousness worshiping from a place of purity.
