Liberty By Love: Galatians 5:13-15

Galatians 5:13-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Galatians 5 in context

Scripture Focus

13For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
14For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
15But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
Galatians 5:13-15

Biblical Context

Paul teaches that believers are called to liberty, but must use freedom in love to serve one another; the whole law is fulfilled by loving your neighbour as yourself, and beware of devouring one another.

Neville's Inner Vision

Liberty, in the inner sense, is not freedom from responsibility but freedom within consciousness. You have been called to a state where the I AM governs all expression, and true law is fulfilled not by external rule but by the warmth of love toward the other as you toward yourself. To 'use liberty for an occasion to the flesh' means to mistake appetite for power; yet by love you serve one another, aligning with the one Mind that sees you as whole. When you envision another as apart from you, you bite and devour in thought, criticism, or fear, and thus your inner climate consumes itself. The moment you assume you are one with your neighbor in spirit, every act forward becomes an act of mutual harmony. The promise of liberty is realized as unity of consciousness: you and neighbor are one I AM, not two separated states. Practice shifts from judgment to service; you will find the law is already fulfilled wherever love rules. Feel the reality of your brother's wholeness as your own, and let that feeling rewrite every fear into love.

Practice This Now

Assume you are one with your neighbor in the I AM; revise a quarrelsome thought by affirming 'I love my neighbor as I love myself' and feel it real in your chest.
