Ransom for the Righteous

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the kingdom of your mind, there is no 'other' to pay a price for you; the wicked and the transgressor are your own discarded thoughts and habits appearing as the exchange that reveals your true state. The line does not condemn others; it confirms your inner law: you are the I AM, and your awareness is the currency that buys the right to live as the upright. When you hold to that conviction, the apparent adversaries—fear, judgment, guilt, opposition—are revealed as the ransom your old self pays to expose this new you. The wicked become the measure by which your inner order is established; the transgressor marks the surrender of past errors to the sovereignty of your present, unshakable I AM. Therefore you do not fight them; you acknowledge that their presence serves the purpose of letting your true nature rise and stand unaltered. Your consciousness creates the world that pays this price, and in paying it, you are free, here and now.
