Acknowledge Inner Transgression

Psalms 51:3-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Psalms 51 in context

Scripture Focus

3For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
Psalms 51:3-4

Biblical Context

Psalm 51:3–4 speaks of openly acknowledging one's transgressions and recognizing that true accountability rests before God. It invites turning inward for repair, not reliance on external mercy.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this psalm, the 'transgression' is not a distant act but a belief in separation from the I AM. When you say, 'For I acknowledge my transgressions,' you awaken to the fact that your own consciousness is aware of a misalignment, and the 'sin' that haunts you is simply a memory within you, not a truth about your nature. The line 'Against thee, thee only, have I sinned' names the inner standard by which reality is measured—the I AM that you are. Your righteousness is not earned by external judgment, but revealed by turning your attention back to this inner God-state and allowing it to judge with perfect clarity. The psalmist’s plea to be justified when God speaks is really a cue to your practice: align your inner voice with the truth of unity, dissolve the old image, and let the rightness of your being shine through. Repentance becomes a revision of memory rather than confession of guilt; you revise what you have accepted as real. In imagination’s fire, you choose to inhabit the forgiven, innocent you, and your world follows by reflecting that inner light. Mercy follows from mercy you grant to yourself in consciousness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, place a hand on your heart, and declare: 'I am forgiven; I am one with the I AM.' Feel this state as real now, and let it quietly redraw your next moment.
