Crucified Self, Free From Sin

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this text lies a map of your inner landscape. The 'old man' is not a distant myth but the habit of identifying yourself with limitation. When you accept that the old man is crucified with Him, you acknowledge the death of that identity in your present consciousness. The 'body of sin' becomes inert as you stop feeding it with attention; henceforth you are not to serve sin because you are already dead to that pattern. The clause 'For he that is dead is freed from sin' is not about a future event but a shift of allegiance: you live from the state that God’s I AM awakens in you. Your true self is the one that no longer carries the guilt or compulsion of old sin-nature, for sin's power rests on belief in separation. The practical effect is inner peace, an image of yourself aligned with wholeness. When you imagine yourself as the risen series of states—the crucified old self and the alive new self—you are imagining your own God-identity. By pure assumption and felt sense, you reclaim liberty already granted in consciousness.
