Chains of Inner Light
Jude 1:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Jude 1 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jude 1:6 speaks of angels who deserted their proper dwelling and remain in eternal chains until the great day of judgment. In Neville's reading, these angels symbolize abandoned inner states and habitual thoughts imprisoning consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Take Jude 1:6 as a map of your own inner geography. The 'angels' are not far beings but states of consciousness you have fed with attention and belief. When they 'kept not their first estate,' it is your mind clinging to former identities—habits, pride, fear—refusing to align with the I AM you are. They are 'reserved in everlasting chains under darkness' because you have mistaken those old patterns for reality, locking them in the unconscious until the 'judgment of the great day'—the moment you awaken to the I AM and recognize you are the author of your life. The great day is not a future catastrophe but the instantaneous recognition that you are the imagineer of your life. The outer consequences reflect inner choices; until you revise, you remain exiled from your own divine habitation. The cure is not punishment but a revision: assume a new state of being, feel it real now, and dwell in the consciousness of your rightful estate. As you persist, the imagined chains melt into bright awareness, and the inner angels you call home become your living truth rather than memory.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Assume the state 'I AM unbound and awake now.' Feel it real, revise a lingering memory of limitation, and dwell there for a few minutes daily.
