Inner Record, Divine Judgment

John 8:14-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read John 8 in context

Scripture Focus

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.
John 8:14-16

Biblical Context

Jesus states that his true record comes from knowing his origin and destination, not from outward appearances; he distinguishes divine discernment from fleshly judgment.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the inner listener, this dialogue shows that reality springs from consciousness, not from outer judgment. The 'record' Jesus speaks of is the living memory of your true origin: you came from the I AM and you return to it. The crowd judges by outward signs and time; you do not bow to such appearances, for a Father within you guides true discernment. When I say I judge no man, I mean that genuine discernment flows from unity with the divine source. If I judge, my verdict is true because it is rooted in that eternal relationship: I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me. Let the inner record govern your sense of reality: use your imagination as the keep of that truth. As you align with the inner Presence, external conditions begin to reflect your inward certainty, and the semblance of others softens into the living image of divine presence.

Practice This Now

Imaginative act: Assume I know whence I came and whither I go; feel the I AM at the center of my chest. For the next few minutes, view people as expressions of divine presence and affirm, I judge no man, letting that inner truth soften every outward verdict.
