----------------------
In this lecture, Neville Goddard redefines original sin, explaining that it has nothing to do with sex but rather with missing the mark—failing to recognize or act upon God's eternal truth. The Bible, he asserts, is not a historical book but a divine mystery, where all characters personify eternal states of consciousness. The first state of divine creation is the way of salvation, personified as a child—a symbol of spiritual rebirth. To hear the truth of this way and reject it is the true original sin.
Goddard describes Jesus Christ not as a person but as a series of mystical experiences leading man to union with God. Those who hear the truth but deny it are severely beaten by life, while those who act in ignorance receive mercy. The lecture emphasizes that spiritual awakening comes through belief and personal experience, not religious dogma. Neville urges his audience to practice mercy and transformation by imagining the good for others without their knowledge. The journey to God, he concludes, is not about morality but about awakening through divine realization.
Key Takeaways:
- Original Sin Is Not About Morality, But Awareness
- Sin means missing the mark—failing to recognize or accept divine truth.
- The greatest sin is to hear the truth and reject it.
- Jesus Christ Is Not a Person, But the Path to God
- The way to the Father is through a series of mystical experiences, not a historical figure.
- Every person must experience the truth to awaken.
- The First Act of Creation Was the Way of Salvation
- Before the world was made, God created the way back.
- This way is personified as a child, the first and purest state of divine delight.
- Belief vs. Ignorance: The Degrees of Responsibility
- Those who hear the truth but do not act on it suffer more than those who never knew it.
- Knowing the truth carries a responsibility to live by it.
- Mercy and Forgiveness Lead to Liberation
- Those who act in ignorance receive mercy, as Paul confessed.
- Practicing forgiveness frees both the giver and the receiver.
- Imagination Is the Creative Power of God
- To change one’s world, one must first imagine a new state and persist in it.
- The world is a mirror reflecting inner consciousness.
- Judging States, Not Individuals
- People are not evil, they are simply occupying different states of being.
- The key to transformation is to see beyond the state and call forth the divine in others.
- Spiritual Awakening Is an Individual Journey
- No collective group, religion, or philosophy can bring a person to God-consciousness.
- Awakening unfolds through a preordained series of mystical events.
- The Importance of Persistent Faith
- Faith in imagination must be unwavering.
- "70 times 7" signifies the need for repeated forgiveness and belief in transformation.
- Salvation is the Return to Divine Unity
- In the end, there is only God, and the awakened man realizes he is God.
- This realization comes through personal experience, not intellectual understanding.

ABOUT NEVILLE GODDARD:
Neville Goddard (1905-1972), was an English writer, speaker and mystic. He grew up in Barbados and moved to the United States of America as a young adult.
Neville Goddard was perhaps the last century’s most intellectually substantive and charismatic purveyor of the philosophy generally called New Thought. He wrote more than ten books under the solitary pen name Neville, and was a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the late 1930s until his death in 1972.
Possessed of a self-educated and uncommonly sharp intellect, Neville espoused a spiritual vision that was bold and total: Everything you see and experience, including other people, is the result of your own thoughts and emotional states. Each of us dreams into existence an infinitude of realities and outcomes. When you realize this, Neville taught, you will discover yourself to be a slumbering branch of the Creator clothed in human form, and at the helm of limitless possibilities.
Neville’s thought system influenced a wide range of spiritual thinkers and writers, from bestselling author Dr. Joseph Murphy to Rhonda Byrne and Wayne Dyer.
He has inspired and continues to inspire millions of readers around the world.
