Offenses in Consciousness Revealed

Luke 17:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Luke 17 in context

Scripture Focus

1Then said he unto the disciples, It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come!
2It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.
Luke 17:1-2

Biblical Context

Offenses are inevitable; those who cause offense bear responsibility. The text warns that harming the vulnerable is especially grave.

Neville's Inner Vision

To hear Luke 17:1-2 through the I AM eye is to see offenses as waves in the sea of consciousness, not debts laid on you by strangers. Offenses arise as states of awareness you entertain; the woe is the warning that you, the I AM of your world, have invited the storm through judgment and separation from your brother or sister within. The little ones are the tender parts of your own being—the childlike trust, the teachable nature, the impulse to be loved. When you condemn another, you harden your own atmosphere and drag a millstone of fear across your chest. But you can revise the scene by choosing mercy now. Assume a higher state where you forgive in advance, where you see the offender as a projection of your current internal state and dissolve the cause by love. In that revised state, offenses lose their sting, and the interior world shifts to a calmer sea. The simple law remains: feel the mercy you want to receive, and you stop building the burden that sinks you.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, declare, 'I AM the forgiveness that dissolves all offenses,' and revise a real or imagined interaction from that state. Feel it real by breathing into the heart and seeing the other as part of you, bathed in mercy.
