Inner Sacrifice, Outer Worship

Neville's Inner Vision

The goat of the people’s sin is the image of a mistaken self you have entertained about yourself. The priest within—your I AM—slays that image in your imagination and offers it for sin, not to punish you, but to release the belief that you are separate from God. By offering the old state, you acknowledge that guilt has no real substance; forgiveness arises as you realign with the I AM, the only real presence. Then the burnt offering, offered according to the manner, represents total consecration of your consciousness to the divine life. The manner is the present feeling, the disciplined assumption that you are already holy, whole, and forgiven. The ritual in the outer text mirrors your inner journey: the social sin is dissolved by inner acknowledgment, and your worship is true when it proceeds from awareness rather than fear. See the people’s offering as the shared dream of humanity dissolving in your self‑recognition. You act once, in imagination; the world shifts to reflect that inner change.
