Rebel Self Renewed
Jeremiah 28:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jeremiah 28 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jeremiah 28:16 presents a harsh pronouncement: a prophet declares that rebellion against the LORD will be punished by removal from the earth within the year. In Neville terms, it's revealing a state of consciousness that must end so a truer I AM can reign.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the Neville reader, this word is not about a man but about a state of consciousness that has taught rebellion against the I AM. The 'face of the earth' is the arena of your awareness; when you 'cast' that state away, you simply withdraw attention from a belief that you are bound to fear or separation. The line 'this year thou shalt die' signals the ending of that old mode in your experience—not a physical death, but a death of habit. The LORD's word is your inner law; when you align with it, the rebel impulse loses its charge and obedience to the I AM becomes your natural rhythm. Judgment here is not vengeance but accountability: you acknowledge the consequence of clinging to separation and choose a unified reality where truth, love, and harmony are seen in your life. The moment you accept that you are the I AM imagining, the cast-out state dissolves, and you awaken into a kingdom renewed by obedience. You are invited to live as the truth you seek, not as the fear you fear.
Practice This Now
Try this now: close your eyes, assume the feeling of the I AM as the governing presence, and revise the old rebel self as already shed. Stay with the sensation of obedience until the inner atmosphere shifts.
