Biblical Context
Romans 10:9-10 teaches that believing in the heart and confessing with the mouth bring salvation. Inner conviction manifests as outward acknowledgment.
Neville's Inner Vision
Your heart’s belief is the realm of consciousness; the mouth’s confession is the clear act of naming what you already are. The phrase 'the Lord Jesus' points to your highest self—the Christ within—whose resurrection is your recognition of a life that cannot be extinguished. When you believe in this inner reality unto righteousness, you align your entire being with its truth. The confession is not to persuade God but to certify your state to your own senses, the outward word sealing the inward certainty. Salvation then is the present awakening to your native divinity, a state you assume and then see formed in your world. You do not seek from without what you already possess within; you awaken by the two-fold discipline of hearty belief and bold utterance. Practice this steady inner certainty until your surroundings begin to reflect your true standing in God, here and now.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, place a hand on your chest, and in a steady voice declare, 'I am the Christ within; I believe now in this inner truth unto righteousness, and I confess my salvation.' Feel the truth as a warm current in your chest and allow it to flow into your words.
