Neville Goddard on Galatians 3:10-12 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Galatians 3 in context

Scripture Focus

10For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

11But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

12And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

Galatians 3:10-12

Biblical Context

The passage warns that relying on the works of the law brings a curse, since justification comes by faith, not by the letter of the law. The law operates apart from faith, and external obedience can't confer true righteousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

In your inner theatre, the so-called curse appears whenever you believe you must perform to earn God's favor. The 'law' represents an external code that cannot justify, because it is not born of faith. Yet the just shall live by faith—the unwavering trust that the I AM within you is already divine and complete. You are not condemned by your deeds or failures; you stand in the presence of God by realizing that your awareness, your I AM, is the sole reality. Treat the law as a symbol of outer patterns, not a tribunal of worth. When you stop seeking through outward works and turn to the I AM, you awaken to your imagination’s power to render truth tangible. By assuming the state of the finished work, you feel the truth as real now, and the old sense of lack dissolves. Declare: I am the just one; I live by faith in the unseen I AM within me, and the external rules become tools, not judges.

Practice This Now

Imitate the inner decree by closing your eyes, affirming 'I am the just one, living by the faith of the I AM within,' and then feel the inner reality until it registers as sensation.
