Gaze Upon The Pierced Self
John 19:37 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read John 19 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
John 19:37 prophesies that people will look upon the one pierced, signaling an inner recognition of truth rather than a physical event.
Neville's Inner Vision
In Neville's view, the 'they' are the states of consciousness within you that cling to separation; 'Him whom they pierced' is the inner Christ you have believed wounded by fear. The piercing is not a tragedy but the opening through which the I AM awakens to itself. When you turn your attention inward and look with the awareness that you are the I AM, the wound dissolves into unity. The prophecy becomes present experience: seeing your true Self heals the old story of separation, inviting mercy, forgiveness, and redemption to flow through your feeling body. As you persist in this inner gaze, your outer circumstances shift to reflect a state of wholeness and compassion. The fulfillment lies in the realization that God is the I AM within you, and the pierced one is your consciousness awakened. Salvation is not a distant event but a daily act of awareness—the inner look transforming all you apprehend.
Practice This Now
Practice: sit quietly, breathe, and revise the scene by softly saying, 'I look on Him whom I pierced within.' Visualize a radiant Christ-light within your chest, dwell there until mercy and unity rise as your felt reality.
