The Way

In Genesis 4:15 (BBE) , God places a mark on Cain: “And Jehovah said to him, ‘No man who kills Cain shall be punished, but he shall be punished seven times more.’ Then Jehovah put a mark on Cain, so that no one who found him would kill him.” Cain’s mark symbolises a mind weighed down by sasness, anger, fear, hopelessness, guilt, loneliness, and separation — an inner state “ missing the mark ” and caught in negative, wild beast-minded patterns. Later, Lamech’s declaration in Genesis 4:24 intensifies this: “If Cain will be punished seven times, then Lamech seventy times seven.” This echoes Jesus’ teaching on forgiveness in Matthew 18:21-22 (NIV): “Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, ‘Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?’ Jesus answered, ‘I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.’” Both Lamech’s vow and Jesus ’ teaching highlight the mind’s potential to become trapped in endless loops (wheels) of in...

Many fear the “ Mark of the Beast ” as a fearful, external sign. But when we look deeply at the Bible — especially through Neville Goddard’s Law of Assumption — we discover a profound spiritual truth: the biblical “mark” is the identification of negativity ready for its transformation to the law of Assumption . Cain’s Mark: The First Mark of Separation and Missing the Mark "And the Lord said to him, ‘No man who kills Cain shall be punished, but he shall be punished seven times more.’ Then Jehovah put a mark on Cain, so that no one who found him would kill him.” In Genesis 4, God places a mark (cross) on Cain after he sinned. This mark is often misunderstood as protection or punishment. Symbolically, Cain’s mark represents the human condition of mental misalignment — the state of psychologically “ missing the mark ” (sin), disconnected from delightful and pleasurable living. Mentally locked  outside of the Garden of Eden . This mark signals the inner struggle of living under...

When most people hear " forgive seventy times seven," they imagine a moral command to endlessly pardon others. But according to Neville Goddard, the Bible is not a book of ethics — it is a psychological manual showing you how to shape your reality through assumption. Who Is the "Brother"? In Matthew 18, Peter asks: "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?" Psychologically, "your brother" is not an external person. It represents the old, limiting states within yourself — the persistent thoughts, doubts, and feelings that contradict your chosen desire. Each time a contradictory state arises, you are invited to " forgive " it — meaning you release it and return to your wish fulfilled. The story of Joseph and his brothers in Genesis primarily teaches this. The Numbers: 7 and 70 Jesus replies: "I do not say to you up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven." In Hebrew sy...

Among the more obscure-sounding laws in the Old Testament is the one that speaks of dietary restrictions in Leviticus 11. These practices are a somewhat crude attempt at the law of Assumption before it evolves into the ministry of Jesus .  God commands Israel to eat only those animals that both chew the cud and have a split hoof . Those that do only one are unclean: “You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud.” – Leviticus 11:3 “But you must not eat those that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof. The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you.” – Leviticus 11:4  At face value, these sound like dietary rules. But according to Neville Goddard and the Law of Assumption, every detail in Scripture is symbolic of your own consciousness . These “animals” are not external creatures, but inner states —mental and emotional energies, assumptions, qualities of thought and reac...

The Bible as Psychological Drama The whole of the Bible is psychological drama, and the early chapters of Genesis are not primitive myth but carefully coded metaphysics. Every verse plants a seed of symbolic truth. When we reach Genesis 4:5-7, the word sin makes its first appearance—not as a list of taboos, but as something far more subtle and internal: ".. And Abel gave an offering of the young lambs of his flock and of their fat. And the Lord was pleased with Abel's offering; But in Cain and his offering he had no pleasure . And Cain was angry and his face became sad. And the Lord said to Cain, Why are you angry ? and why is your face sad? If you do well, will you not have honour ? and if you do wrong, sin is waiting at the door, desiring to have you, but do not let it be your master. " (Genesis 4:4-7, BBE) This is not a scolding from a distant deity. It is a revelation of divine law. A message from awareness itself to the outer man - Cain. And it is here that th...
