Neville Goddard on Romans 2:1-11 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Romans 2 in context

Scripture Focus

1Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things.

2But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

3And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them which do such things, and doest the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

4Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

5But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;

6Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

8But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

9Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11For there is no respect of persons with God.

Romans 2:1-11

Biblical Context

Romans 2:1-11 warns that judging others reveals your own hidden faults. God’s impartial judgment mirrors your inner state, rewarding good and inviting repentance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember the opening cry: you are excusable only when you forget you are judging. The truth is that every harsh remark you utter about another exposes a hidden state inside you. God’s judgment is not an external verdict but a measurement of consciousness—truth applied to the inner man. No respect of persons with God means the I AM is the same presence in Jew or Gentile, rich or poor, visible or unseen; your outer life merely reflects your inner posture. The goodness of God, with forbearance and longsuffering, invites you to repentance—an inward turning of attention from condemnation to compassion. If hardness coats your heart, you are storing up wrath for yourself; revise by assuming you are already the one who lives by grace, the one who forgives, the one who seeks immortality by patient continuance in well-doing. As you abide there, your thoughts change, and with them your world. The divine scale renders to you according to your present state, and you can choose to enter a life where glory, honor, and peace are your daily experience.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and assume the feeling of already embodying the I AM—where judgment has ceased and grace flows. Repeat, 'I am the I AM; I forgive; I enter into grace now.'
