Inner Fruits of Matthew 7:20

Matthew 7:20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Matthew 7 in context

Scripture Focus

20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Matthew 7:20

Biblical Context

Jesus teaches that you will know people by the fruits of their lives; outward results reveal their inner state. The fruit reveals the quality of their consciousness.

Neville's Inner Vision

What you see in another's life is the echo of their inner state—what they consistently imagine, believe, and feel. The kingdom Jesus speaks of is not distant; it is the inner atmosphere you cultivate in yourself. When you entertain fear, scarcity, or anger, your outer world ripens with corresponding experiences. When you entertain love, abundance, and trust in the I AM, your circumstances bend toward those fruits. The I that beholds is the I AM that imagines; the fruit appears as a sign of the inner assumption given substance by feeling. Discernment is thus not judgment of others but awareness of your own states and their natural fruitage. The test is not moral verdict but the degree to which you have learned to dwell in the state that produces the desired outcomes. Practice making your inner state the cause; let the life around you reflect the fruit of your inward trust in God within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and imagine a situation where the desired fruit already exists. Then feel it as real in this moment, and let that inner state shape your next actions.
