Confession of the Inner Christ
Matthew 16:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 16 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Peter declares Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God. This outward confession points to an inner truth awakening within every consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Peter's outward confession is not a praise of a distant man, but a statement of a truth already present in your own consciousness. The Christ is not an external person but the light of your I AM, the living awareness that animates every thought and form. When Peter speaks that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God, he names the state you are already in—the God-presence within you. To believe this is to shift your inner disposition from doubt to dominion. Your faith is not secured by history but by recognizing that Christ equals your highest level of awareness. The kingdom lives within, and you rule through consciousness, not through outward power. Therefore the call to confess is a call to feel the truth as now established in you. Practice by dwelling in the state of I AM, imagining the Christ as your ruling reality, and letting your daily choices reflect that inner kingship.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and repeat: I am the Christ, the Son of the living God in me. Hold that state for 60 seconds, feeling the I AM reigning in life.
