Christ Beyond Law: Belief Now
Romans 10:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Romans 10 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse declares that Christ marks the end of striving under the law for righteousness, available to all who believe. Belief reveals an inner state of righteousness that is already present, not earned by outward works.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of Christ as the I AM within you, the constant awareness that you are one with the living God. When the verse says the end of the law, hear it as the moment you stop measuring yourself by outward rules and begin measuring by belief in your true nature. Righteousness is not a verdict handed down from without; it is the condition of your awareness when faith is fixed in the truth that you are already complete in the Christ within. To those who believe, who turn from external performance and rest in the inner fact, every commandment dissolves into a natural expression of your inner state. The law's penalties and fears fall away as you acknowledge you are the consciousness by which the law is fulfilled, and this is why salvation arises as a natural alignment of mind and world. Your daily life becomes the multiplication of that inner settledness, not the attempt to do more.
Practice This Now
Assume the state: I am the righteousness of God in Christ, here and now. Close your eyes, feel that inner light, revise any sense of separation by affirming the I AM within your being, and carry that feeling into ordinary actions.
