Neville Goddard on John 8:13-18 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read John 8 in context

Scripture Focus

13The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.

14Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.

15Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

16And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.

17It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.

18I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.

John 8:13-18

Biblical Context

In John 8:13-18, Jesus asserts his testimony is true through the Father who sent him, contrasting outward judgment with inward knowing. The passage invites us to live from the inner I AM, where two witnesses support reality.

Neville's Inner Vision

Beloved, the record Jesus speaks of is not a history to be proven by men, but a state of consciousness. The two witnesses are the speaking self and the Father within—the I AM that you truly are and the Presence sending it forth. When you judge by the flesh, you miss the origin and the destination; you measure with eyes that cannot see whence you came nor where you go. Yet the true judge is not the crowd, but the inner alignment of your awareness with the Father sending. In Neville terms, your reality is born from imagination; to claim the truth you seek, you must let the two testimonies speak within you as one reality. Assume that you bear witness of yourself and that the Father within bears witness of you; feel the certainty rising as if it were your own heartbeat. This is how you go beyond outward law and into the living truth of your inner life.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and repeat: I am the one who bears witness of myself, and the Father within bears witness of me. Feel the two witnesses merge as a single certainty in my chest.
