Inner Cross Of Two States

Neville's Inner Vision

Two thieves on either side of Jesus are not distant historical figures but two voices within the living mind. The right-hand voice speaks as faith, believing every appearance can be redeemed by the I AM; the left-hand voice clings to fear, condemnation, and the habit of self-justification. Seen through the I AM, the crucifixion scene reveals that every inner crucifixion is an old identification surrendering its hold. Jesus at the center stands as the awareness that witnesses both sides and remains intact—the I AM within you. When you struggle, you are not being punished by a distant God; you are watching the old self falter in the window of your consciousness, its last throes. The power that raised him is your present I AM, ready to revise every story that keeps you bound to a fearful or judgmental version of self. This is the kingdom you seek, not outside you but realized by the certainty of your own awareness.
