The Way

In Luke 6:12–16, we see Jesus ascend a mountain, spend the night in prayer, and then call and name twelve apostles from among his disciples. On the surface, this appears to be a historical account of Jesus selecting his core followers. But if we understand the Bible as Neville Goddard taught — as a psychological drama unfolding within — the meaning shifts dramatically. The calling of the twelve is not an outer event but an inward selection and ordering of faculties within the individual. The Mountain: Withdrawal into Higher Consciousness The passage begins with Jesus going up a mountain to pray. For Neville, mountains symbolise elevated states of consciousness. Climbing the mountain is withdrawing attention from the world of senses and ascending into the realm of imagination — the creative centre. Jesus , representing the awakened imagination or “ I AM ,” retreats into this higher state to commune with the Father — pure awareness itself. Prayer, in this sense, is not petition but union...

"The Gospels of Luke and Matthew both present genealogies of Jesus, but they differ significantly in structure, order, and emphasis . These differences are not merely historical curiosities or literary preferences — they carry deep symbolic meaning , aligning beautifully with Neville Goddard’s teaching on the Law of Assumption : that what we inwardly accept as true will eventually unfold in our outer world. Luke’s Genealogy: The Path of Universal Consciousness Luke 3:23–38 traces Jesus’ lineage backward , beginning with Jesus and ending with Adam , “the son of God.” This reverse progression is unique in the New Testament and rich in symbolic depth. Starting Point: Jesus as the Present State of Consciousness In Neville’s teaching, Jesus represents the fully realised “ I AM ” — the awakened awareness of being. Luke begins with this state and moves inward , suggesting that the journey of consciousness begins with our present assumption and returns to its source. Backward Journey...

All four Gospels record the story of Jesus feeding a multitude with just five loaves and two fish. On the surface, it’s a miracle of provision. But in the language of Neville Goddard, it is a blueprint for spiritual abundance —the principle that the world responds not to what we lack, but to what we assume. This is not a story about physical bread. It is about the bread of consciousness—the feeding of the multitude within. The Setting: The Wilderness of Thought (Matthew 14:13, Mark 6:31–32, Luke 9:10, John 6:3) Each Gospel places the event in a remote place —a wilderness, far from towns or markets. This isn’t geographical; it’s psychological. The wilderness represents the seeming emptiness when we turn away from the world of facts and appearances. It’s the inner space where nothing “material” seems to support our desire. To feed the 5,000 here is to bring fulfilment to a barren state—not by importing external resources, but by drawing from the inner substance of belief. Imaginati...
