Can You Interpret the Time?

Understanding Jesus' Challenge Through Neville Goddard’s Teachings

“You see a cloud coming up in the west, and straight away you say, ‘There will be rain’; and so it is.
And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, ‘There will be heat’; and so it is.
O you false ones! the face of the earth and the heaven you are able to make out: but how is it that you are not able to make out this time?”
— Luke 12:54–56 (BBE)

We know when rain is coming.
We know when the wind means heat.
We read signs all day long—news headlines, market shifts, even people’s moods.
But Jesus points to something far more important:

Can you make out this time?
Not the time on the clock, but the inner time.
The state of being you’re dwelling in right now.

In Neville Goddard’s teachings, this is crucial. He’d say that the real “weather” is your state of consciousness.

You are always planting seeds in imagination—are you aware of which ones are about to bloom?

• Do you notice when a desire is alive in you?

• Can you feel when it’s time to shift inwardly?

• Do you recognise the signs that your inner world is ready to manifest?

The “false ones” Jesus refers to? Not bad people.
They are the parts of us that only observe the outer and miss the truth within.

Neville would remind us:
To make out the time is to become conscious of your inner movement, your inner season, and to live from the state you truly desire.

That’s the real forecast.
