The Word of God, the Seed, and the Law

According to Neville Goddard, the Bible is not a historical document but a symbolic revelation of how consciousness operates. It maps the inner structure of creation — not the beginning of the universe, but the beginning of every experience . When read in this way, three verses from different parts of the Bible form a powerful sequence of insight. Though they appear in different places, we look at them thematically — because this is how the inner process of manifestation unfolds: John 1:1 reveals the origin of all creation — the “Word,” which Neville defines as an assumption or idea held in imagination. Genesis 11:1 shows the power of inner unity and introduces the shift from the language of external effort to that of inner assumption. Genesis 1:11 presents the law in action — the seed within brings forth after its kind. This symbolic sequence reflects the movement of imagination from conception, to agreement, to expression. John 1:1 — In the Beginning Was the Word “In ...

Moses and Aaron: The Priesthood Of Ritual Cleaving

In Neville Goddard’s interpretation of the Bible, every character represents a psychological state or faculty within you — not a literal person in history. Moses and Aaron are two symbolic aspects of your own mind, working together to shape and express your assumptions, which then create your reality. Moses: The Creative Power of Imagination Moses symbolises your imagination — the creative screen of space that conceives your desires. It is in imagination that all things begin. As Neville teaches, “Imagining creates reality,” and Moses represents that inner movement where you dare to assume a new state. Aaron: The Expression and Outward Assumption Aaron, as Moses’ brother and spokesman, symbolises your spoken word and outer expression — the bridge between the imaginal act and its physical appearance. According to Neville, your words reflect and reinforce your inner assumptions. When Moses (imagination) “puts words” into Aaron’s mouth (Exodus 4:15-16), this illustrates that your ima...

Fit for the Holy Place: Exodus 39 and the Structure of Assumed Identity

"And they made the plate of the holy crown of pure gold… and wrote upon it… HOLINESS TO THE LORD.”  Exodus 39 majestically details the making of the priestly garments, a passage often overlooked as historical record. Yet when viewed through the spiritual teachings of Neville Goddard—who emphasised the power of assumption and imagination—these garments become rich symbols of consciousness, identity, and the inner transformation required to manifest our desires. This commentary explores each section of the chapter not as an ancient ritual, but as a blueprint for dressing the inner man in the qualities of the fulfilled wish. Through fabric, colour, and craftsmanship, Exodus 39 reveals how we weave the reality we live. Exodus 39:1 – The Service Garments Are Woven “And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place…” (v. 1) Blue reflects the imagination’s clear vision of the unseen. Purple (a blend of blue and red) symbo...

Galatians 2:15–21: Living by the Faith of the Inner Christ

When reading Paul’s words in Galatians, many assume he is discussing salvation in terms of historical theology. But what if he is describing something far more intimate—a mystical transformation of the self? Through the lens of Neville Goddard’s teachings, this passage becomes a powerful statement on the awakening of imagination as the true Christ within. “Not Justified by the Works of the Law…” “A man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ…” — Galatians 2:16 Paul opens with a confession: outward obedience to rules and rituals—the “law”—cannot make us righteous. To Neville, this law represents all external systems: codes of behaviour, moral duties, religious traditions. It is the attempt to reach God from the outside in. But God, as Neville boldly taught, is not outside at all. “Imagination is the very gateway of reality.” — Neville Goddard We are justified—transformed—not by effort, but by faith in Christ , whom Neville identifies as th...

“Holy, Holy, Holy”: A Metaphor of Imagination

“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.” — Isaiah 6:3 This is not about ritual praise — it is a profound revelation of the imagination. The “ Lord of Hosts ” is not a deity external to man, but the creative power within: the imagination, which commands the invisible hosts of thought, mood, and movement. It is through this power that all things are made. To call it holy three times is to intensify recognition — a building awareness that this faculty, often overlooked, is in fact sacred. Holy means set apart — not by distance, but by nature. Imagination is unseen, yet it is the true cause of everything seen. The triple “holy” is a progressive awakening to its reality and supremacy. Then comes the declaration: “The whole earth is full of His glory.” This is not a poetic flourish — it is a metaphysical truth. The “earth” symbolises the manifest world, and “His glory” is the radiance of what imagination has assumed to be true. He is the assumption ...
