Inner Faith, Soul Salvation

Hebrews 10:38-39 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hebrews 10 in context

Scripture Focus

38Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
39But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
Hebrews 10:38-39

Biblical Context

The text declares that the righteous live by faith and warns against drawing back. It sets us among those who believe for the salvation of the soul.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the awakened, Hebrews 10:38-39 is not a command to endure outer trials but a reminder that your 'just' nature is an inner state, a faith in the I AM that you are. If you dwindle into fear or retreat into old stories, you 'draw back,' and the soul's pleasure becomes unavailable as long as you live in a lesser self. Yet we are not of those who draw back; we belong to those who believe to the saving of the soul. When you feel the urge to retreat, assume the feeling of your wish as already complete. Hold the sense that the self you are in this moment is the faithful one, the one whose awareness is awake to the end desired. The 'saving of the soul' is not future salvation but the energizing of consciousness into wholeness—peace, clarity, and release from limitation. Entertain the conviction that you are the one who lives by faith, and your inner world rearranges itself to match that conviction.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit in silence and re-state I AM the one who lives by faith, then image a clear outcome as already real, letting the feeling of its truth fill your body for 5–10 minutes.
