Sheep's Clothing, Inner Truth

Neville's Inner Vision

The passage strikes at the center of your consciousness. The false prophets are not distant voices but states you entertain in your own mind, appearing as virtue yet nursing a hidden motive of separation or lack. The measure of a prophet is not external lineage or clever rhetoric, but the fruit that follows from your inner life: peace, clarity, courage, and creative action. When fear, judgment, or need governs your thoughts, you are tasting the fruit of a counterfeit state — a ravening wolf wearing sheep’s clothing. The true prophet arises when you remember that you are the I AM, the living imagination that fashions your world. By dwelling in a state of unity and abundance, you observe results that align with that state. The “wolves” are the old beliefs clinging to separation; the “sheep’s clothing” is any appearance of piety masking those beliefs. Inner discernment comes not from condemning others, but from testing the inner state by its fruits. Persist in the state you desire, and your life becomes evidence of that truth.
