Inner Mercy, Outer Reality
Matthew 25:41-46 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Biblical Context
Matthew 25:41-46 presents a judgment that turns on whether we attend to others' needs; kindness to the hungry, thirsty, stranger, naked, sick, and imprisoned marks true righteousness, while neglect marks separation from life.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville vantage, this passage is a law written in consciousness. The left-hand verdict signals the moment you have neglected the hungers of life that dwell within you: not merely bodies fed or rooms visited, but the hungry, thirsty, lonely aspects of your own mind. The 'least of these' are those inner states begging for acknowledgment, care, and integration. When I attend to them—feeding, clothing, visiting, welcoming—I am ministering to the My-ness I am. The 'eternal fire' is the vivid energy of awareness that burns away the illusion of separation, revealing that judgment is internal alignment, not a distant verdict. The remedy is clear: revise your inner assumption so that mercy is your natural response to any appearance of need, and feel it real as if the act were already done. When I live in the assumption of the I AM, the life I seek becomes my present, and the eternal line between righteous and not-done dissolves into wholeness.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe, and assume you have already fed, clothed, and welcomed the least of these in your inner life; feel that unity, and carry that sensation into your day as your new normal.
