Biblical Context

Neville's Inner Vision

Within your consciousness the names Gaius, Erastus, and Quartus are not strangers but inner faculties presenting hospitality, order, and brotherhood. Gaius the host of the house is the I Am that opens your awareness to the whole church of your being. Erastus the city's chamberlain is the arrangement and governance you grant to your thoughts and daily life. Quartus a brother represents the true brotherhood you acknowledge in your own inner family and in others. When you read that they greet you you are shown that your state of mind greets itself with welcome, dignity, and unity. The outer church reflects your inner posture; to salute you is the I Am acknowledging your worth and inviting harmony into relationships, work, and home. Practically this shifts your sense of self from scarcity to hospitality, from division to unity. You are not asking for change you are becoming the state that you have already imagined. The moment you embrace this your world aligns with the harmony of Gaius, Erastus, and Quartus.

Practice This Now

Assume you are host of your entire inner church. Feel the greeting of Gaius and Erastus and Quartus as real in your mind, and dwell in that hospitality until it colors your day with unity.
