Inner Cities, Inner Son

Neville's Inner Vision

Think of the 'cities of Israel' as the scattered states of your own mind—fearful, defended, shadowed by belief. Persecution in one city is simply a thought-impulse calling you to flee outward, yet the real voyage is inward. You are not asked to conquer outer towns; you are invited to revise your assumption and settle in a new state where the I AM exercises ruling life. The 'Son of Man' is the inner Christ, the Jesus within you, awakening the moment you affirm that the now-present I AM is your reality. When you decide to move to a new state—refusing to be defined by pressure and feeling the vast presence of God within—you have not merely fled; you have completed the journey to the inner kingdom. The promise that you shall not have gone over all the cities until the Son of Man comes means the entire inner Israel is realized through your steady assumption. In practice, you do not fight the outer; you revise the inner belief and dwell in the awareness that God is within you now, fully active and present.
