From Plot to Presence
John 11:53 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read John 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
From that day forward, the authorities plotted to kill Jesus. The event signals how an inner decision can set outward scenarios in motion.
Neville's Inner Vision
John 11:53 speaks not of a courtroom but of a mind's moment when a state declares the end of a former condition. The 'they' who counsel to put him to death are the many voices of a mind convinced that the old story must end for the new to begin. In Neville's light, the only real theater is the inner, and the power lies in the I AM that feels present with a firm decision. When you decide in imagination that a limitation is dead, you are indeed effecting a change in the outward scene. The kingdom of God is not a distant event but an inner government relocating the throne, moving kingship from fear to trust. The 'death' spoken of is the finishing of a belief, the removal of a worn-out script, and the awakening to your true authority. Do not seek to persuade others; change the state within, and conditions follow as echoes of a new consciousness. The moment you decide, the inner court is convened and a new reality, quietly, begins to rise.
Practice This Now
Assume the state that the old belief is dead and feel its dissolution now; revise the inner narrative until you sense the I AM presence as king of your inner realm.
