Inner Baptism in Judea

Neville's Inner Vision

Read inwardly, this verse reveals that the movements of geography are motions of your own mind. Judaea is your inner field of integrity; baptism is the cleansing of old beliefs by the I AM within. Jesus embodies the awakened state you seek, with his disciples as the habits that accompany that awareness. When the text says he tarried with them, it signals a deliberate pause in activity—an inner abiding in the truth you claim. The act of baptism is not mere water but the voluntary surrender of fear, guilt, and limitation to the healing touch of consciousness. As you dwell in this inner Judea, you allow the Christ within to wash away the impression of separation and replace it with a living unity. The result is a purified atmosphere in which purity and integrity feel natural and present, and forgiveness becomes a memory of what you are choosing to be now. Remember: imagination creates reality, and your inner rite of purification is already happening as you align with I AM.
