Bearing The Inner Sanctuary

Numbers 18:1 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Numbers 18 in context

Scripture Focus

1And the LORD said unto Aaron, Thou and thy sons and thy father's house with thee shall bear the iniquity of the sanctuary: and thou and thy sons with thee shall bear the iniquity of your priesthood.
Numbers 18:1

Biblical Context

God commands Aaron and his sons to bear the iniquity of the sanctuary and their priesthood, signaling that the inner temple carries responsibility.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this verse the sanctuary is your own mind, and the iniquity is the misalignment that stains your temple. You are told you must bear it, not as punishment, but as the price of conscious awareness. In Neville's terms, guilt dissolves when you understand that you are not a separate sinner but a state of consciousness you can revise. The priesthood points to your function as the I AM within—your capacity to consecrate thoughts, to choose what enters the temple, to commit to integrity and purity. The act of bearing the burden is not external judgment but inner responsibility: you own the color and weight of your thoughts and you decide to cleanse them by faith in a higher state. As you identify with the I AM, you step into the role of the priest of your own life, guarding your temple and letting go of those beliefs that dim light. This is work and vocation aligned with holiness, a practice of accountability that liberates by turning attention from perceived external guilt to the sovereign life within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, and assume the I AM state: I am the Lord of my sanctuary. See yourself as the priest of your own life, bearing the burden of the temple with calm, then revise any sense of guilt by affirming your holiness now.
