Neville Goddard on Jude 1:12 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Jude 1 in context

Scripture Focus

12These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;

Jude 1:12

Biblical Context

Jude 1:12 warns of those who appear at the feast of charity yet feed themselves without fear, exposing inner emptiness. It invites you to notice how inner states become outward realities.

Neville's Inner Vision

Take Jude's 'spots in your feasts of charity' as a mirror of your inner state. The spots are not people, but beliefs and dispositions that stain your generosity when you move in the assumption that you are separate from the source of all supply. Clouds without water symbolize promises that never nourish because they are formed by restless winds of fear and judgment. Trees whose fruit withereth, twice dead, reveal a faith that is deadened by habit rather than life; they are your habitual thoughts that promise abundance but yield nothing in experience. In Neville's psychology, these images are states of consciousness you carry within; when you identify with the I AM as awareness, you can revise them. Ask yourself: what state am I entertaining as reality right now? If I am charity at the feast, then every flavor of giving pours forth as abundance, and thirst becomes fulfilled. The moment you assume this truth and feel it as real, the inner clouds become rain, the barren trees bear fruit, and the feast flows in harmony with your essential self.

Practice This Now

Assume the I AM as host of your feast and revise: I feed and am fed by all without fear. Feel the water return to the clouds; imagine the withered trees bearing fruit through your inner conviction.
