Within You: The I Am

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the scene in John 7:20 is not about a crowd in Galilee but about a state of consciousness. When they call Jesus a devil, they reveal the fear that your own faith might invite conflict from the outside world. The question who goeth about to kill thee? is the inner alarm that your conviction could be extinguished by opinion. Yet the I AM—the living God within you—cannot be killed by any voice or mob. By identifying with the I AM, you cease to defend and begin to observe. Accusation becomes a pointer to the place you still identify with separation. The moment you assume the state I am that I am, the outer drama loses its charge; you stand untouched while ideas pass. Your faith rests not in men but in consciousness choosing its truth. I invite you to let this truth rise: you are the life that cannot be slain; the silent witness behind every accusation. Live from that conviction, and the crowd's shout becomes a whisper in the wind of your unassailable being.
