Perfection Within Hebrews 6:1-3

Hebrews 6:1-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hebrews 6 in context

Scripture Focus

1Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
3And this will we do, if God permit.
Hebrews 6:1-3

Biblical Context

Hebrews 6:1-3 urges us to leave the elementary doctrines behind and press forward to maturity, not re-laying the foundation of repentance from dead works and faith toward God. It points toward inner growth as a divine timing process, inviting the believer to advance in consciousness when ready.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, you are not being asked to discard Jesus as the Christ, but to cease clinging to childish beliefs about him. The letter invites you to stop laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, and to move into the consciousness that already is the reality of the Christ within. 'Leaving the principles' is not escaping truth; it is discarding the sense of limitation and returning to the I AM—the sole fact of your being. Baptisms, laying on of hands, resurrection, and eternal judgment are not external rites to perform, but inner movements of awareness. Baptisms become the cleansing flood of living awareness; laying on of hands is the taking hold of power by imagination, a deliberate assumption that your state is already complete. Resurrection is your inner waking to a new life here and now, not a distant event; eternal judgment is the discernment of truth within your consciousness, confirming you are aligned with divine order. And this you do, as the text says, if God permit—meaning you align with divine timing of your inner life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, and in the I AM’s presence, revise any sense of lack by declaring, 'I am now perfected in Christ; I move beyond the elementary to fullness of life.' Repeat until the feeling is real.
