Forgiveness and the Inner Voice

Neville's Inner Vision

In this teaching, the Holy Spirit is the living presence within you—the I AM that you are aware through imagination. When Jesus speaks of sins being forgiven, he points to the fact that every mistaken state of consciousness is curable by a new assumption. The bewitching phrase about the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost marks a fixed attitude of separation: a refusal to acknowledge the Spirit's power within your own mind. It is the habit of judging, condemning, and denying your unity with your true self. The unforgivable is not a cosmic tally but a stubborn stance that denies the Spirit's transformative work within you. To fear there is a sin beyond forgiveness is to deny the aliveness of the I AM; forgiveness then becomes an inner conversion—the return to the realization that you and the Spirit are one, and that all events are appearances within consciousness. The world to come unfolds from the inner state you maintain now, so changing your inner decree changes your outer experience.
