Earthly Truth, Heavenly Trust

John 3:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read John 3 in context

Scripture Focus

12If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?
John 3:12

Biblical Context

Jesus points out that belief in earthly things doesn't guarantee belief in heavenly things; a inner shift of consciousness is required to access higher realities.

Neville's Inner Vision

Your mind reads this teaching as if it concerns others, yet the invitation is inward. If you have believed earthly appearances—what you can see, measure, or prove by the senses—and you remain unmoved by them, how will you receive the unseen realities? The heavenly is not a distant fact but your own inner atmosphere; it is the degree of consciousness that votes for it. In the Neville sense, Jesus is reminding you that the door to heaven opens not by more facts but by a change of state. When you identify with the 'I AM' that is aware of your present sensations, you are still living on the earthly level; when you align with that I AM as the source of all truth, you begin to believe the heavenly as the given. The moment you accept that the end is done in your own consciousness, you cease comparing and begin to feel unseen truth as real. Then earthly appearances bow to the inner conviction that heaven is the present condition of your state.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Sit in quiet presence, assume the heavenly end as your current state, and feel it real by dwelling in the 'I AM' that knows it. Repeat, with full sensory awareness, until belief rises.
