Grace Within: Law and Abundance
Romans 5:20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Romans 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The law reveals offense so that sin can be seen clearly; yet grace exceeds it, overflowing in the believer's consciousness. In plain terms, opportunity for grace exists wherever human failure seems greatest.
Neville's Inner Vision
Romans 5:20 invites you into a simple, luminous distinction: the law entered to make offense visible, so you might see the contrast between limitation and truth. Yet grace does not merely balance sin; it overflows where sin has abounded, until your entire sense of self is rearranged. In Neville's language, God is your I AM, and imagination is the instrument by which reality is formed. When you understand that the law's surge merely highlights a preexisting truth—that you are the consciousness in which all events unfold—you can choose the higher mood. Revision becomes your daily practice: imagine grace as the air you breathe, forgiveness as your steady state, and your choices reflecting that inward grace. Persist, and you will discover that the presence you call grace has always been infinite, ready to prevail over any offense. The result is inner alignment, not forceful effort; grace becomes your atmosphere, and your life follows the new state you have assumed.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and declare, 'I AM grace in this moment.' Feel grace filling your awareness until any sense of offense fades and your life reflects that inner abundance.
