Inner Stone of Judgment
Matthew 21:44 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Matthew 21 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse presents an inner stone of judgment: when you fall on it, your old self is broken; if the stone falls on you, your resistance is ground to powder.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through Neville's lens, the stone is the immutable law of your own consciousness—the I AM you are. To fall on this stone is to yield to it, to let your imagination embrace the truth that you are not a separate observer but the dreamer of the dream. When you fall, the old self—its fear, guilt, and limitation—splits open and is broken by the light of awareness, revealing a new center that can act from quiet certainty. If the stone falls on you, it is the pressure of truth forcing every stubborn belief to crumble; the grinding to powder is not punishment but the surrender of the old identity to the reality you have now chosen. Your only work is to dwell in the assumption of the I AM, to imagine from the end, and to feel it real until your inner state aligns with the state you desire. The stone does not judge; it shows you what you have already created.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes and assume I AM is the center of your world. Fall upon the inner stone by repeating, 'From this moment, I AM; my old self is broken, my new state is established,' and feel it real.
