The Inner Consequence of Command
Numbers 15:31 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Numbers 15 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
It states that despising the LORD's word and breaking his commandment leads to being cut off. The burden of iniquity rests on the individual for that choice.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, this line is not a doom over distance but an inner verdict you pronounce upon yourself when you treat the word of the LORD as external to you. Despising the word is a state of consciousness that says I am not aligned with the action and rhythm of the I AM within, and breaking the commandment is the movement of that disbelief becoming outer behavior. The cut-off is the experience of separation you feel when you deny the inner guidance, a vivid mirror of your own inner guilt the form the mind assumes when it forgets its unity with divine law. When you stand in the awareness that the word is your own I AM, you see that obedience is not about external rules but about aligning your imagination with truth. The measure of justice is the degree to which you have settled the mind in the wholeness of God within. In this frame, repentance is not regret but revision: choose anew who you are and feel that reality as your present fact.
Practice This Now
Imaginative_act: In a calm moment, close your eyes and imagine the LORD's word as your inner command. Rehearse the revision: I AM obedient now; feel the oneness return and your actions align with that law.
