Neville Goddard on John 3:19-21 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read John 3 in context

Scripture Focus

19And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

20For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.

21But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

John 3:19-21

Biblical Context

Light has entered the world, and many love darkness because their deeds are evil; those who do truth come to the light to show that their deeds are wrought in God.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the gospel of your inner world, light is not a distant verdict but a raised level of awareness you freely assume. Light entering the world mirrors the awakening of your I AM—the consciousness that you are divine thought in form. If you refuse the light by clinging to fear, you love the darkness and your deeds lie hidden, not yet formed by God. Yet when you acknowledge that all you do flows from the one Source within, the light comes close and your deeds are made manifest as wrought in God. This is not judgment from without, but a shift of state; the scene you call \"world\" begins to reflect a truth you accept about yourself. Seek purity, integrity, and truth not as moral pressure but as the natural expression of consciousness aligned with God. Practice the implicit revision: assume you are the light and feel your life as the overflow of I AM, and watch as actions reveal themselves under the glow of truth.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, close your eyes, breathe in the I AM presence, and imagine yourself as the steady light in your room; declare, 'I am the light of truth; my deeds are wrought in God,' and feel it as your reality.
