Inner Light of John 5:33-35

Neville's Inner Vision

John stands as the symbol of outer testimony—the voice that points to truth from without. Ye sent unto John, and he bore witness unto the truth. Yet salvation is not secured by another’s word about you; it flows from the I AM within, the constant witness that arises when you shift your attention from external voices to the singular verity of awareness. When I say these things, that ye might be saved, I remind you that salvation is a present state of consciousness, not a future event. He was a burning and a shining light: your inner light is likewise burning, visible to the quiet mind that rests in I AM. You were willing for a season to rejoice in his light—the inspiration of a teacher—yet the season ends when you recognize you are the light itself, the revealer of truth. Do not seek John’s witness outside; awaken to the witness within, and let that inner flame illuminate every scene, every decision, every deed.
