Unbounded Forgiveness Within

Neville's Inner Vision

Your brother's sin against you is never outside of your own inner state. When Peter asks for a limit, Jesus lifts the question from the external scene into your realm of consciousness, declaring that forgiveness must be without measure. In this text, the offender is a symbol of a pattern you still entertain. You imagine a reality in which you hold a grievance, and in the very act of holding it, you imprison your own light. Seventy times seven is not a number to tally; it is a reminder that you must repeatedly choose the state of mercy until it has become your habitual I AM. To forgive is to acknowledge that you and the other are expressions of the same divine consciousness, and thus the 'sin' is merely a misalignment that your awareness can quickly correct. By shifting your inner assumption—seeing yourself as whole, unoffendable, and merciful—you rewrite the scene and draw the other into your inner Kingdom.
