Grace and Fellowship Within Galatians

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the letter stands a simple drama: the inner pillars—James, Cephas, John—recognize the grace given to Paul and Barnabas and extend the right hands of fellowship. In Neville’s key, these pillars are not men but states of consciousness—certainty, action, and insight—standing in your mind as witnesses to your true nature. When you perceive the grace given unto you, you awaken to a truth you already are: the I AM, the unconditioned awareness that orders the world. The fellowship is an inner handshake, a sealing of harmony between the state that loves the Gentiles and the state that would keep to old forms. The directive—go unto the heathen—becomes a directive to carry your mission into the outer world, not by struggle, but by belief in your own inner order. The division of circumcision vs. heathen is simply the mind’s old partitions dissolving as you choose to act from your wholeness. Your inner pillars acknowledge you; your outer life follows suit, drawn by the gravity of your assumed state. The result is unity of purpose, not compromise but a higher synthesis.
