Inner Righteousness & Divine Judgment

Romans 3:5-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Romans 3 in context

Scripture Focus

5But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who taketh vengeance? (I speak as a man)
6God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?
Romans 3:5-6

Biblical Context

The verses question whether our unrighteousness can prove God’s righteousness or justify His vengeance, and affirm that God is not unrighteous to judge; the world is judged by an inner, fixed moral order.

Neville's Inner Vision

Imagine the line 'our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God' as a misreading of the inner weather. Your unrighteous thoughts are not proof against God, but signals that you have forgotten the I AM that you truly are. The righteousness of God is not a distant standard to be measured by your faults; it is the steady awareness in which you live. To ask if God is unrighteous to take vengeance is to mistake the law at work within you—the law of cause and effect held in your own consciousness. If God were unjust, the world would be a chaos; but the world obeys a fixed inner order, the I AM that judges all scenes. Therefore refuse the notion that your errors negate God; instead, rest in the truth that God is the consistent you. When you align with this inner standard, your feeling becomes the judge of every situation, and the outer world answers with a just, peaceful form. The verse invites you to drop the argument and awaken to the eternal governor within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume the state 'I AM' as your own. Feel it real that the inner God now governs your life; revise any troubling scene by affirming the divine order within you and observe the outward world reflect it.
