Neville Goddard Binding And Loosing The 1964 Lectures
January 14, 1964…Now we are told, when man really discovers it, it is the blood of Christ Jesus that must be shed. Well, how could I shed the blood of Christ Jesus? Yet I am told, without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sin; therefore, what is sin now? Sin is “missing the mark.” If I have a goal in life and I do not realize it, I am sinning. I don’t care what the world will tell me, it’s the one s…
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Spiritual States”
April 6, 1965…It doesn’t last 400 years. Four is a symbol. Every letter of the Hebrew alphabet has a numerical value as well as a symbolical value. 400 is the numerical value of the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, that letter is Tau; the symbol of that is the sign of the cross. This [body] is the cross, the only cross on which Christ was ever crucified…no wooden cross. This is the tree. As Blake said, “The …
Barabbas Or Jesus
April 5, 1963…Would I like to do that, at the same time not neglecting my obligations tonight? For I am married—there is a husband, a wife, a child, a father, a mother, and all these things in this world—and they must all, if I love them as I think I do, take care of them. And so I want enough to leave them cushioned. Regardless of all things, but maybe they didn’t hear me. But they don’t need my cushion, but m…
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Counting the Cost”
November 19, 1963…Then I woke and wrote the vision down. It was early in the morning, about three or three thirty, so I went back to bed and I re-dreamed the dream. Re-dreaming the dream I had a slight change in the dream. Instead of saying that grandfather said it, I had so absorbed the faith of grandfather, I became grandfather, and I said “I remember when this was an empty lot.” Then I would paint the picture of…
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Jesus or Barabbas?”
March 24, 1964…Well, “If apart from me you can do nothing”—and who is speaking?—Jesus—well, then who is Jesus? What did the man do? If I said to him, “What are you doing?” “I am imagining that she has a job.” Well, he told me Jesus is doing it, but he didn’t use the word Jesus as the world thinks…but he did, because Jesus is I AM. And so, in everyone Jesus is buried, but everyone. We carry him within us. Within …
Neville Goddard Lectures: “The Law: Self-Circumcision”
May 28, 1965…So tonight, take it on this level. Take it on this level and when you retire this night practice. If you don’t succeed tomorrow, practice anyway. Practice the art of this self-circumcision, the removing of the foreskin of the heart. Practice! If you do, you’ll get results. So you can take it not only for yourself, take it for another, but it’s all performed upon yourself. As you are told, circumci…
Neville Goddard Lectures: “The Name of God”
November 5, 1965…He said, “Those who know my name put their trust in me.” Read it carefully. If you do not know the Bible, it’s the 9th chapter of the Psalms, “Those who know my name put their trust in me,” if I really know this name is God’s name (verse 10). He has no other name, just I AM, and all things are possible to God. And if tonight I really believe that this is the name of God, and in scripture the name …
Neville Goddard Lectures: “Imagination My Slave” (1967)
February 13, 1967…Sitting in his office he said, although it didn’t mean anything to him, if it came out or not, it means so much to so many people, especially his boss, he was being extremely selfish. Something happened in him and he became completely fired with bringing it out. He said it seemed that stories, art, articles . . everything . . just came through the walls. He wrote three short pieces himself with so…
