Neville Goddard on John 10:31-33 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read John 10 in context

Scripture Focus

31Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.

32Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?

33The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

John 10:31-33

Biblical Context

Jesus confronts a hostile crowd that stones him, accusing him of blasphemy for claiming to be God. He points to the Father’s works and asks which act would deserve such judgment.

Neville's Inner Vision

Stones in this story are not rocks but the mind’s judgments pressed against truth. The crowd’s stone throwing reveals the ego’s habit of labeling the living Christ as other, as blasphemous. Jesus speaks of many good works from the Father, reminding you that all acts flow from the I AM, the single awareness you call God. When you fear being seen as God in the flesh, you throw your own stones, denying your birthright. The issue is not external threat but belief in separation. The true miracle is recognizing that every good work is the Father speaking through you, and that the sense of self apart from God is the last illusion to dissolve. When you align with the I AM, the need for stones vanishes, and your world rearranges to reflect divine presence. Your task is to revise every accusation into acknowledgment of the self as God in expression.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and feel the I AM as your living center. When judgment arises, revise it by declaring I AM the doer and witness of this moment, and linger in that felt truth until it becomes your ordinary perception.
