From Milk to Mastery Within

Hebrews 5:13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hebrews 5 in context

Scripture Focus

13For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
Hebrews 5:13

Biblical Context

Hebrews 5:13 says that anyone who uses milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness and is a babe; maturity comes from moving beyond infancy to discernment.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this line, milk and solid food are states of consciousness. The 'word of righteousness' is not a rule book but the living I AM—your awareness expressing as life. To be 'unskilful' with milk means clinging to comforting pictures and identities, mistaking appearance for truth. To be a babe is to treat transient sensation as your fundament. The invitation to 'solid food' is a call to disciplined inner nourishment: imagine from the end, assume the present reality of your right-standing, and feel the truth as already true. When you revise your sense of self by a single, decisive assumption, the old self fades and a mature perception takes its place. The inner movement then travels outward as new conditions, yet the change begins in consciousness. Hebrews 5:13 thus becomes a map: choose to nourish with the solid word, dwell in the I AM, and you outgrow infancy into the luminous discernment that righteousness brings.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: sit quietly, declare 'I am the I AM, and I stand in righteousness now,' and feel the old infant self dissolve as a newer, steadier self takes root.
