Inner Struggle, Bloodless Victory

Hebrews 12:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hebrews 12 in context

Scripture Focus

4Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
Hebrews 12:4

Biblical Context

The verse indicates that the current battle against sin is not yet at the level of extreme outward sacrifice, highlighting that the real arena is inner conviction and identification.

Neville's Inner Vision

That line in Hebrews is not about shedding blood as a history lesson but about the inner resistance of a man clinging to the old self. The 'not yet resisted unto blood' signals the power of belief—the self is still in the friction of two worlds: the sense of lack (sin) and the quiet awareness that you are pure consciousness. The "blood" is the image of giving up the old life, the death of the separated self. Your battle is mental, a struggle within your I AM. The remedy is not more effort but a re-identification: imagine the end you desire as already present, and dwell there until the sense of separation dissolves. When you assume the victorious state, the nervousness, compulsion, and fear begin to recede, because you are no longer negotiating with sin from the level of the old self but from the level of the new state you embody. Practice the end in steps: revise your self-narrative to match the outcome, feel it in your body, and let your outward actions follow the inner vision.

Practice This Now

Assume the end: 'I am free from sin' and feel that freedom in your chest for a minute, then repeat with each decision today.
