Spirit Over Flesh: Galatians 3:3-5

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner life, Spirit is the first impression of who you are; the flesh is only a changing expression within your consciousness. The Galatians are mistaken to think they must perfect themselves by rules after beginning in spirit. The real work is a revision of state: when you accept that the Spirit already animates you, the miracles you seek are already at work as your inner conditions change. The Spirit operates by faith, not by the letter of the law; faith is the listening to the inner I AM, the awareness that you are one with life. If you now doubt, recall that every event you call external is a movement of your inner state. So you must entrain your mind to the feeling that you are complete in the Spirit, and let this consciousness do the work. When you regard your life as already finished in the mind of God, the outward form follows.
