Neville describes the mystical unfolding he calls the 'history of salvation' as coming in four acts: first the birth from above, then the discovery that one is spiritually the father of David who calls him Father, then the reversal of the body's generative energy into regenerative energy -- rising like a serpent from the base of the spine -- and finally the descent of the dove. He teaches that, just as Christ's ministry lasted three and a half years, these four acts unfold and complete within that same span once they take possession of a person, though the person remains afterward to tell the story to those drawn to it.

- Christmas, the Birth of Christ in Man ¶30 (In my own case it was not December the 25th, it was the 20th day of July of 1959. That was my Christmas. And my discovery of the fatherhood of God was on the 6th day of December of ’59. My splitting of the curtain of the temple of my own body was on the …)

- Spiritual States ¶69 (And the fourth one, when the dove descends and smothers you with affection, that came two years and five months later…two years and nine months later, really…came on the first day of January, 1963. And it began on the 20th of July, 1959, so from July 20t…)
- Step into the Picture ¶18 (When the dove descended upon my hand, and then smothered me with love, kissing me all over my face, my neck, my head, I know exactly what happened, because it happened to me.)
- Those Who Know Thy Name ¶46 (The actual eruption began and came to its fulfillment on the first of January, 1963, when the dove descended and smothered me in affection, kissed me all over my face, my head, my neck, and remained upon me.)
- Salvation History ¶39
- His Own Credentials ¶36
- Scripture Must Be Fulfilled in Us ¶30 (And yet everything I’ve told you is based upon my own personal experience. I can say with Paul, I wasn’t taught it, I never heard if from a man, but it came to me through the revelation of Jesus Christ.)
- Invisible Things ¶68 (All that happened to me in these four mighty acts were all involuntary, every one. Not one did I deliberately conjure. You can’t do it. It’s grace. You don’t earn it.)
- The Father ¶23 (Now this happened to me in 1934, and the mighty acts of God did not start to awaken me until 1959, so my Father knows all.)
- God's Son ¶41 (It took me 1,260 days or you can say three-and-a-half months, or three-and-a-half years, pardon me, or forty-two months.)
- Truth Seen Is Not Forgotten ¶40 (To the best of my ability, I have told it in my book “Resurrection” how it happened—these four mighty acts that must take place in man.)

- The Wisdom, Power, and Glory Buried in Us ¶37
- Inner Talking ¶34 (So before I became awake, long before I rose from the dead to find myself resurrected, then to find myself born from above, long before that I was still the same being who afterwards woke.)
- The World Is Imaginal in Character ¶13 (I tell you from experience: you will awaken, rise and are born from above. Five months later David will stand before you and call you Father. Four months from that date, your spiritual body will be split and He who wove it for you will unwind himself as …)

- The Last Days ¶14 (I know, for when I awoke within my skull I had no memory of how or when I was placed there, I only knew I was alone in an empty skull, and I came out of it just as a child comes out of the womb of a woman.)
- The Real Man ¶10 (Well, may I tell you from my own personal experience, when I awoke within this skull of mine there were no openings. How did I get into it in the first place? Did someone put me there, or was I led there, was I enticed there?)
- The Congregation of God ¶25 (It’s broken in me. I have experienced the entire story of the gospel. I do not know of one little part of it that I haven’t experienced.)
- He Stirs in Me ¶31 (For a moment I heard them as coming from without, as though they were spoken by another; then I heard them as coming from within but still spoken by another; until I heard them as coming from myself and I am the one speaking.)
- The Most Practical, Yet Most Profoundly Spiritual ¶13 (The unfolding of scripture could come to him suddenly, now, as it has to three of us present tonight.)
- Jesus Christ, the True Identity of Man ¶21 (So, I’ll tell you I’m not an intellectual. What I know of the Christian mystery is not from learning; it is all from revelation. It all was revealed within me. It came quite suddenly and, may I tell you, quite unexpectedly.)
- Christmas, the Birth of Christ in Man ¶8 (Everything said of the character called Jesus Christ in scripture I have experienced, all within me.)

- The Sphere Within ¶10 (One day in 1959, having been prepared because of the parts I have played throughout my long journey, I was magnetically drawn into that sphere.)
- The Promise's Fulfillment in You ¶15 (And I know that when I awoke within me, I wondered, “How did I get here? Who put me here?” For this is a tomb.)
- The Nature of God ¶5 (I could no more deny my experiences of Christ unfolding within me, than I can deny the fact that I am standing before you now. And I am not unique.)
- Resurrection ¶5 (All was foretold me but naught could I foresee, but I learned who Jesus Christ really is after the story was re-enacted in me.)
- Who AM I ¶12 (I was born and raised in the Christian faith, and I was taught to believe that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. I did not know that he was actually, literally, God the Father until it happened in me.)
- The Bible: Your Spiritual Biography ¶40 (The letter qoph is this, and you and I have no idea - I know I had none. I thought I was still alive.)
- The Word ¶14 (Long before it actually unfolds—in the form of the child, and David, and the tearing of the curtain of my body from top to bottom, and my ascent into the heaven of heavens, and then the dove—long before, I was sensing the power that was rising within me.)
- When the Spirit of Truth Comes ¶10 (He stands before me and calls me Father, and I know I am his Father and he knows he is my Son.)
- Christmas, the Redeeming Message ¶7 (So as I stand before you, I can tell you they did happen.)

- Manner of Jesus' Birth Is a Sign ¶10 (Now in our world here I have told you what has happened to me, that I have fulfilled scripture.)
- They Related Their Own Experiences ¶26 (If I know exactly what they experienced on The Way, well, I know exactly what they experienced, because I have experienced it in detail. Every little detail of that entire story I have experienced.)
- Imaginal Acts Become Facts ¶42 (I was taught to believe the whole thing took place 2,000 years ago. Then to discover it isn’t so at all — it has no reference to position in time, and no reference as to duration.)
- Initiative ¶25 (Well, He woke within me on the morning of the 20th of July, 1959. That’s when He woke. And then, five months later, He revealed Himself as Father—not a Father out there, but in me as Father. And His son stood before me and called me “Father.”)
- The Smile ¶14 (I find that suddenly the ark is my own being, and it’s torn in two from top to bottom.)
- Moses and Joshua ¶40 (I am telling you what I personally have experienced. I was never taught it by a man. I never read it in a book. I never heard it. It simply erupted within me, the whole drama as recorded in scripture.)
- Hope Deferred ¶28 (And yet here I am, a mortal man, tonight feeling a little bit choking with a cold. Very, very mortal with all the weaknesses of human flesh, all the restrictions and limitations of this cross.)
- Who Is Jesus ¶4 (Well, he revealed himself to me as the dreamer in me. He said, “I laid myself down within you to sleep, and as I slept I dreamed a dream.” I dreamed, and I knew what he was dreaming: he is dreaming that he is I, and that when he awakes, I am he.)
- David Christ ¶16 (I can’t tell anyone the shock that was mine when it unfolded itself in me. I was raised in a Christian home and considered myself, and still do, a Christian.)
- Jehovah's Messiah ¶34 (So, in due time, thirty years later He unfolded Himself within me – in 1959. It took Him thirty years in preparation within me, like a gestation; and then suddenly He rose within me.)

- The Mystery of Forgiveness ¶18 (That happened back in 1929, but here in 1959 the dramatic scenes began to unfold. In the short interval of 1,260 days they all unfolded. They are more indelibly impressed upon my mind than yesterday’s meal.)

| 1963-02-05 [exact/certain/final] | The Bible: Your Spiritual Biography | So here is this book of ours, the beginning of all, truly. It is divine imagining and divine imagining buries itself in man, in a coffin in Egypt. The word “coffin” is the same as the word “ark.” The letter qoph is this, and you and I have no idea - I know I had none. I thought I was still alive. I thought everyone was alive or dying. They became either filled with dreams or visions, or unconsciousness, but when I awoke, then I was alive, awake. I didn’t realize it was a dream within a dream. Here we are dreaming the most fantastic nightmares in the world. | 542637 |
| 1963-02-08 [exact/certain/final] | God's Promise to Man | All the others preceded it. It started in 1959, on the 20th day of July, in San Francisco. Then came the revelation of David in the month of December 6, 1959; then came the splitting of the temple (which is the body) on April 8, 1960. Then came that interval of a few years until the first of this year, January 1st, where the dove descended. Knowing my scripture, I knew then that his work really began. That power laden-work started at the descent of the dove, which symbolized the Holy Spirit. | 551612 |
| 1963-04-09 [exact/certain/final] | The Crucifixion | Now listen to this carefully. It has been given to me and you; take it for what it’s worth. The promise of this begins in Genesis, the promise of an infant called Isaac. The whole vast world has the strangest concept of Isaac. The Lord begot Isaac. Isaac is to be [...] not as the result of generation but the shaping of the unbegotten. Here is God, the unbegotten, shaping himself upon us; and when he completes that shape and it’s perfect in his eye, then we are born from above. So Isaac is the shaping of the unbegotten. For God is not begotten. He is begetting himself on man, individual man.… | 548495 |
| 1963-04-09 [exact/certain/final] | The Crucifixion | But I do know that when it pleased him, that which he begot in me, and then it took nine months for the entire series of mystical experiences, as described in scripture, to completely unfold within me. And so I can tell you it’s going to happen to you. And so there’s no time; it took nine months from the moment of the birth, but when that birth takes place, it’s all in God’s keeping. You and I are put through the furnaces of affliction. Let no one tell you that you’re not going to. “As I have planned it, so shall it be, and as I have purposed it, so shall it stand.” And no one will thwart it,… | 548496 |
| 1963-05-03 [exact/certain/final] | The Shaping of the Unbegotten | May I tell you, when it happens to you, it will be just as I have told you, for it has happened to me. I am not speculating. I am speaking from experience; I’m not speaking from theory. | 550878 |
| 1963-12-19 [exact/probable/final] | Christmas, the Redeeming Message | The gospels are not biographies of Jesus. They are really telling the story of salvation. Christianity is based upon the affirmation that a certain series of events happened in which God revealed himself in action for the salvation of man. So you ask the question, “Did they really happen? Did they happen?” So as I stand before you, I can tell you they did happen. | 545020 |
| 1964-02-11 [exact/certain/final] | Grace versus Law | You look at him, and there’s no doubt in your mind who he is; there’s no doubt in his mind who you are. It takes the Son to reveal the Father, and you didn’t know for one moment you were he until the Son reveals you to yourself. And then the third in the great gift is when out of the blue, you are torn in two, from top to bottom; and then you ascend, a living being, something that is fiery and alive. You ascend right into Zion, which is your skull. And these three parts mark the great gift, called in the Bible “grace,” an unearned, unmerited gift. | 546663 |
| 1964-04-03 [exact/certain/final] | His Own Credentials | So when you return, it’s not a dream. I dream nightly, but visions come at long intervals, especially the visions as recorded in the gospels, beginning with the resurrection, then the birth, then the discovery of the fatherhood of God, then the ascent into the Holy of Holies, and then the descent of the dove. They come at intervals, stated intervals, the first great four: two the first night, one on the heels of the other; and then five months later the second, the discovery of the fatherhood of God; and then four months later, comes the ascent into the Holy of Holies; and then three years… | 545248 |
| 1964-05-12 [exact/certain/final] | What Is His Name | Then there’s the next step. What that step will be that you and I will conceive for the fifth act, I do not know. I can only share with you the ending of the drama as it has ended in my life. | 531849 |
| 1965-01-05 [exact/certain/final] | The Real Man | Well, may I tell you from my own personal experience, when I awoke within this skull of mine there were no openings. How did I get into it in the first place? Did someone put me there, or was I led there, was I enticed there? | 532397 |
| 1965-01-29 [exact/certain/final] | The Womb of the Universe | Now let me tell you a story as told me in a letter last Tuesday night. When I got home I had the letter with me and before I retired I read it. I can’t tell you my thrill! I know that he, the one who had the experience, is now in spiritual shock, just as I was in spiritual shock and remain there since 1959. For when these things happen to you you’re not the same person. You’re not the being that your friends think you are; something entirely different has happened. You walk as though you were the same person, but you’re not the same person. You can’t be the same person. So I know that he is… | 532631 |
| 1965-02-02 [exact/certain/final] | The Smile | Then I go back in time, as I begin to expand, and suddenly…I thought the temple, the ark of old, was 4,000 years ago, and I find that it wasn’t. I find that suddenly the ark is my own being, and it’s torn in two from top to bottom. And I thought that Moses was something unnumbered years ago, who took a rod and made it into a serpent and lifted it up, that he certainly was my ancestor by unnumbered centuries, and he wasn’t. Finally, I am actually enacting all these things within my being. | 550903 |
| 1965-02-23 [exact/probable/final] | The Dreamer | I was coming home from a funeral about a year ago and a lady said to me (who drove the car)…first of all she said, “You know our friends in the back”—-and it’s a lovely, sweet Japanese couple—-and she said to me, “They are Catholics.” Well, I was pleasantly surprised, because automatically you think of Japanese as Buddhist…at least I did. She said, “They are Catholics.” Then said she to me, “I’m a Christian Scientist” and I said, “That’s alright.” Then she said to me, “What are you?” I said, “I’m a Christian.” She said, “I took that for granted, but I mean what kind of Christian? Are you a… | 548124 |
| 1965-02-26 [exact/certain/final] | Where Are You Staying (Where Do You Live Psychologically) | That is the confirmation I’ve been waiting for since the experience of Christ awoke within me. It’s the experience that every being in this world which it’s going to happen to and is going to have. There is only God in the world. And everyone in the world will experience the story, the story of Jesus Christ and know he is the Lord Jesus Christ and there is no other. You are told in scripture, “Only one person knew he was The Christ until he departed this world.” And that one was called Peter, and now if I said Peter you would think of a man with a beard, an old man, for we have made hundreds… | 526877 |
| 1965-03-26 [exact/probable/final] | Have You Found Him | This is actually the creative power that is here now, nailed to me in this whirling vortex, these six points like the Mogen David, the six-pointed star. The day will come—and it has come in my case—that he simply awoke within my skull. He stood up. Who stood up?—-I stood up. And everything said of him I experienced. So these signs all began to unfold from that moment on. Every sign as recorded in scripture concerning from his resurrection through to the descent and the sealing of the Holy Spirit…as “he was sealed with the promised Holy Spirit as the guarantee of his inheritance.” What was his… | 545080 |
| 1965-04-06 [exact/certain/final] | Spiritual States | I find four great steps. The resurrection and birth from above come together; resurrection precedes the birth by a matter of moments. Then, five months later comes the Son revealing you as the Father. Four months after that comes the splitting of the temple of the body from top to the base, and you are parted as though you were parted this way, many, many inches. And then you look at the base of the spine and you see this golden molten pool of liquid gold. You know it is yourself, and as you know it is yourself you fuse with it. In that liquid form, like a serpent, you ascend what was the… | 543859 |
| 1965-04-16 [exact/certain/final] | Inner Talking | So before I became awake, long before I rose from the dead to find myself resurrected, then to find myself born from above, long before that I was still the same being who afterwards woke. When I woke, I was not other than the being who was asleep. When I was born from above, I was not other than the being who was not born from above. When I ascended as the serpent in the wilderness, I was not other than the one who had not yet ascended. When the dove descended and smothered me in affection, I was not then other than the one who had not yet been smothered with affection. So these words are… | 532893 |
| 1965-06-18 [exact/certain/final] | Evil: Turning to Other Gods | And I can’t tell anyone the thrill, that something that happens when the whole story of Jesus Christ unfolds in you. When it begins to unfold, you can’t believe. And you realize this thing can’t be based upon a moral vision, it can’t be based upon what I’ve been taught, because you have no feeling of a radical break with the past. Your loves remain the same—you may see them differently. But your dislikes…maybe you become indifferent to them…but I can’t honestly say that there aren’t certain things in this world that I don’t still dislike. And yet it happened to me, so it can’t be based upon… | 533317 |
| 1965-06-22 [exact/certain/final] | Scripture Must Be Fulfilled in Us | And yet everything I’ve told you is based upon my own personal experience. I can say with Paul, I wasn’t taught it, I never heard it from a man, but it came to me through the revelation of Jesus Christ. He unveiled himself in me in these mighty acts; and having unveiled himself in me I found that I wear his body on high. But the full glory of that inheritance cannot be actualized by me, or at least cannot be fully realized, so long as I wear this body. As long as this body is needed to reach this level of consciousness and I have to wear it, I cannot come into the full inheritance that is… | 533364 |
| 1966 [exact/certain/final] | Resurrection | Nothing can take the place of personal witness to God’s plan of salvation. The plan of the mystery is inherent in the creation. What is so prophetically spoken to the world in the Old Testament is realized in one’s own personality. All was foretold me but naught could I foresee, but I learned who Jesus Christ really is after the story was re-enacted in me. The man who has experienced Scripture cannot escape the responsibility of telling its meaning to his fellow men. The unknown writers of the gospel of God were not describing situations and events of the past as historians. Their story of… | 542349 |
| 1966 [exact/certain/final] | Resurrection | From his baptism with the Holy Spirit to his resurrection, fall the “days of the Messiah” , a period of thirty years. During this period, he is so overwhelmingly in love with his mission, as messenger and preacher of the Gospel of God, a gospel which has laid such constraint upon him that he can do no other, feels that “if I preach the gospel, that gives me no ground for boasting. For necessity is laid upon me. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!” . A divine compulsion drives him as it had Jeremiah, who said, “If I say, ‘I will not mention Him, or speak any more in His name,’ there is in… | 542365 |
| 1966-01-28 [exact/certain/final] | What Must We Do Believe | So here, as we are coming to a close, I thought I would give you, night after night, from now on, just things that would really fire you in some way to try it. It will prove itself here. And then I hope that you will believe me concerning the message of salvation, for that’s the important thing I bring now. For I was sent before I knew the message, the message of salvation; I was called and sent. But all that I knew from experience was that a change of attitude on my part would result in a change of behavior in the outer world. I saw it, I practiced it and it worked. And so, having seen it… | 546895 |
| 1966-02-08 [exact/certain/final] | Invisible Things | All that happened to me in these four mighty acts were all involuntary, every one. Not one did I deliberately conjure. You can’t do it. It’s grace. You don’t earn it. Just, at a moment in time, the time has been fulfilled, and when the time is fulfilled, it happens, and you unfold. | 534365 |
| 1966-02-15 [exact/certain/final] | The Name of God Is the Key to Understanding the Bible | So no one…he said, “Look here, here’s Christ! Don’t believe him.” Why? “It does not yet appear what we shall be, but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, and see him just as he is”. You shall be like him. Well, if I’m not like him in my own mind’s eye, well, then I haven’t seen him. But if David called him Father and he called me Father; and if he is the one who is resurrected from the grave, and I was; and if he is the one who is born from above and had witnesses to the birth that came from above, not from below, not the womb of woman but the skull of man, and I was; and if the… | 548988 |
| 1966-11-01 [exact/certain/final] | The Congregation of God | First of all, you have to give me not just the word sealed but the context. In the Book of Daniel he was told to seal it, the time was not yet; in the Book of Revelation, do not seal it, for the time is fulfilled, and therefore let the filthy be filthy still. Do not for one moment raise a finger; let them be as they are. For they’ve heard the story and from now on just let them all move in their own respective ways. Do not seal it anymore, for this is not a mystery to be kept as a mystery. For now the mysteries of God, although they are great mysteries, they’re not matters to be kept secret,… | 534637 |
| 1966-11-28 [exact/certain/final] | An Apostle | And to do it, God buried himself within me and took upon himself this form, the form of a slave. He slept and shared with me then as he made me alive horrible dreams, nightmares, horrors, the wars, the conflicts of the world. Then one day he awakes and calls me into his risen state, and embraces me, and sends me back to experience thirty years later the drama as foretold in the gospel: The resurrection, the birth; the discovery of the fatherhood of God through his son calling me Father; then the tearing of the curtain of the temple, which is my body, and lifting me up into Zion; and then the… | 550146 |
| 1966-12-06 [exact/certain/final] | The Word | All of a sudden I am confronted with the fact; and one is telling me of the good news, the good fortune of his friend, who happens to be my friend, and I witness. Then, where is Christ? “All things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made.” Well now, who is he? Did I not do it? Is not that Word now growing within me? Long before it actually unfolds—in the form of the child, and David, and the tearing of the curtain of my body from top to bottom, and my ascent into the heaven of heavens, and then the dove—long before, I was sensing the power that was rising… | 543370 |
| 1967-03-20 [exact/certain/final] | He Stirs in Me | I heard them. For a moment I heard them as coming from without, as though they were spoken by another; then I heard them as coming from within but still spoken by another; until I heard them as coming from myself and I am the one speaking. So here, I found these stages. What was being whispered from within me appeared to be coming from without; then what was whispered within me appeared to be coming from within but still from another; then, finally, it wasn’t being whispered by another, I am speaking. I am declaring I am love. I am declaring I am faith, hope and love, these three. And all the… | 535323 |
| 1967-11-10 [exact/certain/final] | The Most Practical, Yet Most Profoundly Spiritual | And here, to get this in the morning’s mail or to get it here when I leave on my lecture night, I can’t tell you my thrill to look out and see it all awakening. Because I tell you, everything that you want you can have right here, really. Just as my friend did it for the barber, and did it for his friend; and while he was doing it for his friend, his three children became beneficiaries of an estate that has been in liquidation for seventy years. Seventy years! He made his departure from this world back in the 1890s and now in this day and age, in the ’60s, the next century, they’re all named… | 536475 |
| 1967-11-17 [exact/certain/final] | Jesus Christ, the True Identity of Man | So, I’ll tell you I’m not an intellectual. What I know of the Christian mystery is not from learning; it is all from revelation. It all was revealed within me. It came quite suddenly and, may I tell you, quite unexpectedly. It suddenly happened within me. When the whole drama began to unfold within me, then and only then did I really know the Christian mystery. I’ll tell you in my own words where it parallels scripture; and in the words of Blake, your own wonderful human Imagination is Christ…and there is no other Christ…and there is no other God. For [...] say, “I and my Father are one” .… | 536592 |
| 1967-12-11 [exact/probable/preferred] | Christmas, the Birth of Christ in Man | Then came the moment in time where God the Father is about to reveal himself further as God the Father in the one in whom he was born. So I can tell you, you are God the Father, but I can’t persuade you because you cannot be persuaded by flesh and blood. So the thing talking to you now is flesh and blood, and this will not long be here. It will die like all men…all men die, this will die, too. But this is not the being of whom I speak. This thing called Neville will die in the not distant future. But what is within that I experience while walking this earth I cannot share it with you save in… | 536892 |
| 1967-12-11 [exact/probable/preferred] | Christmas, the Birth of Christ in Man | Well, this wonderful day that is approaching the outer world is a day that takes place in man. It’s a moment in time. In my own case it was not December the 25th, it was the 20th day of July of 1959. That was my Christmas. And my discovery of the fatherhood of God was on the 6th day of December of ’59. My splitting of the curtain of the temple of my own body was on the 8th day of April, 1960. And the descent of the dove upon me, smothering me with love, was on the 1st day of January in 1963. So these days are indelibly impressed upon me. But I do not use them as anniversaries, I simply wrote… | 536914 |
| 1968-02-08 [exact/certain/final] | The Last Days | Having stood in the presence of the Risen Lord, answered his question, embraced him and been incorporated into his body, I know exactly what the Ancient of Days looks like. And when we were united, I became one with that body, one with that Spirit. I now know what it is to be that body and that Spirit, but I first saw the face. Many years later when I saw David, who called me Father, he was the youth of that being. He bore the express image of his person. No, David didn’t look like Neville any more than Neville looks like the Ancient of Days, so when I saw David he was the express image of my… | 531867 |
| 1968-02-08 [exact/certain/final] | The Last Days | The last days begin with your awakening to the realization that you have been entombed in your own skull; that you have been dreaming this world into being. You think you are fully awake right now, yet you are dreaming the dream of life. I know, for when I awoke within my skull I had no memory of how or when I was placed there, I only knew I was alone in an empty skull, and I came out of it just as a child comes out of the womb of a woman. Being born from above, I found all the symbolism of scripture unfolding before me: a babe wrapped in swaddling clothes and the three witnesses to the event… | 531875 |
| 1968-02-12 [exact/certain/final] | Salvation History | Well, Tom, they could. I doubt it, I doubt it. They believe that if you simply bottle up the energy that is going down into generation that you could in some way reverse it into regeneration. You can’t do it, you just can’t do it. That is an act of the splitting of the temple. When that curtain is split from top to bottom, your whole body is split; and then you see the whole energy that was at the base of the spine, that living, wonderful, golden liquid light. You merge with it. You are the observer, and you merge with it, and you are it. Then you go like a serpent right up into your head. So… | 537261 |
| 1968-03-01 [exact/certain/final] | They Related Their Own Experiences | So that is our story, so that you will not run all over the world trying to find some other way. There is no other way! This is The Way. If I know exactly what they experienced on The Way, well, I know exactly what they experienced, because I have experienced it in detail. Every little detail of that entire story I have experienced. And so, I know that I am not unique. Everyone will experience it, but everyone. | 548027 |
| 1968-03-04 [exact/certain/final] | The Way | And so here, these two must come first. Then comes the splitting of the temple, where you do not take the blood of another, the blood of a goat, the blood of anything else; you take your own blood. And you are split from top to bottom and at the base of your spine is golden liquid light. It’s the blood of God and you are God…for it was just revealed to you, just four months before, that you are the father of God’s only begotten Son. So who now is split? It’s you…and therefore God is split, from top to bottom. And it’s God’s blood, it’s your blood, and you fuse with it and up you go as… | 544089 |
| 1968-04-12 [exact/certain/final] | Real Meaning of Good Friday and Easter | My religion is infinite power and taking upon himself the form of man. He said that he emptied himself and took upon himself the form of man, becoming obedient unto death, even the death upon the cross . So a complete, I would say, abdication. He just simply completely abdicated his infinite power and assumed the limitations of this concrete state called man, but he had not yet died; the death comes at the splitting of the temple. It’s concealed, but if you read it carefully, “And he yielded up the spirit,” and that was when he died. Now, Luke reversed it—it yields it up first and then comes… | 538005 |
| 1968-04-26 [exact/certain/final] | The World Is Imaginal in Character | When he begins to unveil it in you, he first begins with resurrection, which is followed instantly, that same moment, by birth from above. Then a passage of months, five months, and then comes the discovery of his Son, who calls you Father. That Son is not Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ is God the Father. That Son who calls him Father is David of biblical fame. Then will come that moment in time when the temple of his body, which is your body now, for he has woven himself into you and now he unwinds himself as you. You’re told the curtain of the temple was flesh and it split in two from top to… | 550541 |
| 1968-04-29 [exact/probable/final] | Moses and Joshua | And then, five months later, another eruption of this wonderful pattern within him and that second eruption is David. David stands before you and calls you Father. And David is God’s only begotten Son, as told in the 2nd Psalm: “Thou art my son, today I have begotten thee” . David stands before you and calls you Father, this beautiful lad of about twelve, thirteen years old. And that relationship between you and your son, I cannot describe it. It’s something you cannot describe, and yet there’s no uncertainty in you concerning this relationship. | 551183 |
| 1968-04-29 [exact/probable/final] | Moses and Joshua | So, in the end, there is only God, nothing but God. So you take it to heart and dwell upon it. I’ll be gone, but these words are true. You will never in eternity disprove them. Don’t change them. Don’t alter them; leave them just as they are. I am telling you what I personally have experienced. I was never taught it by a man. I never read it in a book. I never heard it. It simply erupted within me, the whole drama as recorded in scripture. | 551196 |
| 1968-05-06 [exact/certain/preferred] | Who AM I | Now we are taught to believe in our faith. I was born and raised in the Christian faith, and I was taught to believe that Jesus Christ was the Son of God. I did not know that he was actually, literally, God the Father until it happened in me. “When it pleased God to reveal his Son in me”…he revealed me as the Father. The Son who revealed me to myself was David of biblical fame. So when you read it in scripture, “Before Abraham was, I am”, I can say before you this night, “Before David was, I am.” And yet, David by a chronological measurement is 1,000 B.C. I was born in this century. That’s 3… | 542523 |
| 1968-05-13 [exact/probable/final] | Manner of Jesus' Birth Is a Sign | Now in our world here I have told you what has happened to me, that I have fulfilled scripture. You may or may not believe it as I told you when I first opened up the talk tonight that the whole story of Jesus, but the whole, from his conception by the Holy Spirit to his ascension into heaven, is simply a sign granted by God to those who will receive it. I have told you, some here will not receive it, other will receive it. For those who will receive it, if you ever see me in your vision in such a creative act, I am simply fertilizing the story of the gospel in you. I am the Father of that… | 547161 |
| 1968-05-20 [exact/certain/final] | Creation and Faith | Those who wrote the gospels knew what they had experienced; but man has misinterpreted the message, believing Jesus Christ is external to self and not realising he is God’s creative power and wisdom. My visions have paralleled those recorded in the Book of Luke. Luke does not claim that his experiences were chronologically accurate, but that he feels better qualified to write the source material. I have told it chronologically, just as it happened to me. | 531914 |
| 1968-07-17 [exact/certain/final] | The Pattern Man | Well, this erupted in me on the 20th day of July 1959, in this City of San Francisco. On the 6th day of December was the second eruption of the same year, ’59. On the 8th day of April of 1960 was the third eruption, and then on the first day of January of 1963 for the fourth eruption. When you add from the 20th day of July 1959 to the first day of January 1963, you will see it comes to 1,260 days − right to the day. | 543072 |
| 1968-07-26 [exact/certain/final] | The Signs of the End | Turn the calendar, now to the 8th day of April 1960. Again, I retire without any thought in mind that something is going to happen this night. I didn’t know what the next sign was. I knew these two had happened, but I didn’t anticipate them because I was never taught them. I didn’t see them in Scripture. I didn’t foresee it; it just happened. On the morning of the 8th of April, a bolt of lightning – out of the blue – it struck me, and split me in two from the top of my head to the base of my spine – and here I am, parted. Two halves of the being called Neville; his whole body is parted right… | 551222 |
| 1968-09-13 [exact/certain/final] | One Thousand Two-Hundred Sixty Days | Now to the 1,260 days. On July 20 of the year 1959, my day was normal. I lectured in the morning to a large audience in San Francisco. Calling my wife around 9:00 P.M., I read the Bible and a bit of Blake and retired about 11:00 P.M., expecting nothing other than a normal, restful sleep. | 538636 |
| 1968-09-23 [exact/certain/final] | The Father | Now this happened to me in 1934, and the mighty acts of God did not start to awaken me until 1959, so my Father knows all. He knew in ’34 that regardless of what happened (wars or rumors of wars) I would be here in a garment of flesh and blood in ’59, for in the interval of time between ’59 and ’63 he knew what he was going to do to his projected image. He also knows the moment of my departure. I only know it is this interval of time, for I have finished the race. I have fought the good fight and I have kept the faith, but the day of my departure I do not know. That hour only he knows.… | 538692 |
| 1968-09-23 [exact/certain/final] | The Father | I hope that this will be your experience in the not distant future, for you can mark it down. From ’34 to ’59 was the time allotted in my case. Then from ’59 to ’63 the four mighty acts unfold. The first is your resurrection and birth from above. The second is the discovery of David, who calls you Father. The splitting of the temple (which is your body) from top to bottom and your ascent like a serpent into heaven is the third. The descent of the dove which smothers you with love is the fourth and final mighty act of God. | 538698 |
| 1968-09-27 [exact/certain/final] | Brazen Impudence | Well then, dramatize that and put it into a half-hour TV, or put it into a play, and let Michelangelo’s great labor become alive. So I have made it alive because I have experienced it. So you saw correctly: The two widely separated in time are closely woven in the tapestry of life. He labored with his tremendous know-how of the human form and he could work in all these different media. And I came along to find it happening in me, without the ability to mold a stick; and yet a babe, an unearthly babe, and people and a grave, and everything in this world that even he in his giant days could not… | 538727 |
| 1968-10-07 [exact/certain/final] | The Most Precious Gift | Then one day, without warning, with the most sudden, sudden shockingness, the story of Jesus unfolded itself within me, casting me in the central role. Then I knew He actually gives Himself to me! He is not sharing it. He literally died for me! He is not pretending that He is I. He literally died. And all that is true of Him repeats itself in us individually, and because He is the Father of Humanity, and David is the symbol of Humanity, when the individual has gone through all the experiences of Humanity . . good, bad, and indifferent . . and he has been tried “furnaces of affliction,” the… | 528133 |
| 1968-10-07 [exact/certain/final] | The Most Precious Gift | And, yet, on the morning of the 20th the whole drama erupted within me. It began with the Resurrection; I awoke within my own skull to find myself completely sealed within this sepulchre that is my skull. It is Golgotha, and I had been dreaming all along, and I didn’t know it. I have never been so amazed in my whole life. Here I am, completely sealed in my own skull, and I knew it to be a tomb, and I knew that someone placed me there. I did not know that God Himself entered death’s door with me when I entered, and that He laid Himself down within the tomb with me and shared with me this dream… | 528144 |
| 1968-10-07 [exact/certain/final] | The Most Precious Gift | Then, nine hundred and ninety-eight days later, completing the cycle of one thousand two hundred and sixty days . . as told us in the 12th chapter of Daniel and the 12th chapter of Revelation . . from the birth of the child, from the birth of the child, as told us in Revelation, when this miraculous child appears, it will take twelve hundred and sixty days, and on that twelve hundred and sixtieth day the heavens open . . and Heaven is within you. Your skull opens. Everything becomes translucent. There is no circumference, but none whatsoever! It’s not bounded by anything . . a complete… | 528151 |
| 1968-10-14 [exact/possible/preferred] | The Head, the Source | When you go home tonight, you dwell upon this change if it’s only for tonight that “in the head God created the heavens and the earth.” You try it. May I tell you, it will do wonders for you, because you know where the head is, you know where the chief is, and you know then where God is, for he is the head. So when you look into the mirror, you’re seeing God. And one day you will stand in his presence and you will know he is the Lord. He is the universal humanity, because he takes one after the other, one by one, into the one body. One day he’ll take you into that one body and therefore you… | 547524 |
| 1968-11-11 [exact/probable/final] | Jesus Christ: Your Creative Power | Now we go forward and find that 998 days later, bringing the whole total of days from the beginning to the end to 1,260 days as foretold in scripture in the Book of Daniel and Book of Revelation. This is when the whole thing has reached its climax. On this final day, the 1,260th day, again you least expect it, suddenly your skull becomes transparent. Your entire head ceases to be head and there’s nothing but translucency, infinite transparency. And then floating above you, about twenty feet, is a dove, a lovely beige dove. It seems to be floating, not using its wings, and you have the… | 543553 |
| 1968-11-22 [exact/certain/final] | The Name of God (I AM Is Synonymous with God) | You will find from the beginning to the end there are 1,260 days. From the day you awaken within the skull (called Golgotha) to that moment in time when the Holy Spirit in bodily form as a dove descends upon you. Count the days…1,260 days. It comes out right on the button. And you will know you’ve finished it. Then why do I remain? You remain to tell it…how else would it be told? You become a witness: “And you shall be witnesses for me.” That is the story. | 551505 |
| 1968-11-29 [exact/certain/final] | Divine Acquittal (When Christ Awakes in Us) | I know from my own experience that Christ is raised. He rose in me, and all that is said of him in scripture unfolded in me, so I can’t deny it. I could no more deny this than I could the simplest evidence of my senses. I know this night what I ate for dinner, I can’t deny it. Well, I could no more deny the experience of Christ rising in me than I could deny tonight’s simple evidence of what I ate for dinner. That will pass away; but this cannot pass away. | 551137 |
| 1968-12-06 [exact/certain/preferred] | Partakers of the Divine Nature | Now we love each other dearly and we have much in common; and yet so little in common when it comes to his passion in life which is business and my passion which is the Word of God. He thinks I am completely insane doing this with no returns when he gets such returns. But his returns are in the world of Caesar and he can’t take it with him; and my returns are in eternity and I take it with me. I don’t need any bank book when I leave here, because it is the power that you take with you…and here Christ is the power of God. Well, the gospel has completely awakened within me; I’ve experienced… | 539304 |
| 1968-12-16 [exact/certain/final] | God Enters into His Shadow | So Blake states the whole thing at that moment in time when time was divided between B.C. and A.D. It all started there in Blake’s strange and wonderful vision, and in his case it took 1,800 years for God to wake, and in my case, 1,959 years, and in another case, well, different. So the Bible tells you each in his own order. Now, whether this order was pre-determined…for he destined us in love. That’s what we are told in Ephesians, “He destined us in love to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will.” Well, the same God that dreams in me is the God that dreams in… | 544718 |
| 1969-01-06 [exact/certain/final] | The Mystery of Imagination | And so, some here this night you didn’t seek him but you’ve been exposed to him. You may not accept it. You may go out and think that’s blasphemy what that man said tonight, because it’s in conflict with your concept of what you think it ought to be. But I tell you from experience. I am not speculating, I am not theorizing, for I’m telling you I know what I know from experience. I have experienced the entire drama as recorded in scripture concerning Jesus Christ, from the resurrection, through the birth, up to the very descent of the dove, the grand baptism. So everything recorded and all the… | 539387 |
| 1969-01-13 [exact/probable/final] | The Mystery of Forgiveness | If the whole vast world rose tonight and told me that what I am saying is misleading and that I must no longer talk about it, well, how could I ignore what has happened? I could no more deny what has happened to me than I could the simplest evidence of my senses, I couldn’t. I know what I had for dinner tonight, but that is not as graphic in my mind’s eye as the unfolding of scripture within me. That happened back in 1929, but here in 1959 the dramatic scenes began to unfold. In the short interval of 1,260 days they all unfolded. They are more indelibly impressed upon my mind than yesterday’s… | 551352 |
| 1969-02-07 [exact/certain/final] | The Maker and the Maker of Things | And no man really knows himself who does not know the revealer, and the revealer unveils himself within you as your very being. In my experiences, I never saw another one do it. I was not a spectator of another; I was the actor playing the part, the very part that is written up in the gospels as played by Jesus Christ. So you tell the story while you wear this little garment that decays…and they are simply shocked beyond measure. You seem to be so blasphemous when you make these bold, bold claims, and yet you can’t deny what happened to you. I could no more deny this than I could the simplest… | 546634 |
| 1969-02-10 [exact/probable/preferred] | When the Spirit of Truth Comes | Well now, he became me, but if he became me, what was his purpose?—to give himself to me that I may actually become God. Then how will I ever know? He’s a father. Well, you can call me Lord, but I would not believe it. You can call me by any name and I wouldn’t believe it. But if the Son calls me Father and he is supposed to have lived 3,000 years ago, well, here I am in the 20th Century, and here is one who by scripture preceded this age by 3,000 years. He stands before me and calls me Father, and I know I am his Father and he knows he is my Son. He isn’t trying to prove it. It is as though… | 544789 |
| 1969-03-24 [exact/certain/final] | God's Plan of Redemption | When God awoke within me, there were not two of us, only one I am. I am he who had the experience. I am he who pushed that stone away and came out of my tomb. I am he who held the child in my arms and heard God’s son call me father. I am he who experienced the complete severance when my body was torn from top to bottom. And when the dove descended and smothered me with love, I am he who experienced it. | 552510 |
| 1969-03-24 [exact/certain/final] | God's Plan of Redemption | Jesus Christ is not some historical being on the outside. He became flesh and dwells in us. Ten years ago this coming July, he who so loved me - his creation - took upon himself all of my afflictions, awoke in me, and when he did he wasn’t another. Imagination is the light which is the life of every man. | 552526 |
| 1969-03-31 [exact/probable/preferred/estimated] | What Is Truth | In my own case, however, I will not wear a body of death any longer; for the Word has erupted within me. I know scripture is true from beginning to end, for I have experienced it. I also know that those in whom it has not erupted will find themselves restored to life. If our late president Eisenhower has not had the Word unfold within him, even though he was the president of our great country, he has been restored to life as a young man, about 20 years of age. He will be in a terrestrial world like this one, in an environment best suited to his needs, to continue the work that was started in… | 537739 |
| 1969-04-11 [exact/certain/final] | Creating One New Man Instead of the Two | So, for you who are here for the first time in many years then pick it up from there, because we’ve had a long interval between the law and the Promise. Because I fell heir to the Promise in its completeness back in 1959 and if you haven’t heard me since, then what I have been teaching since this revelation from within me would be something entirely new as far as you’re concerned…like a new world, a new language. Yet I cannot deny the law, for I came not to destroy the law and the prophets who prophesied of the law and prophesied of the Promise. I came not to deny or in any way to obliterate… | 545347 |
| 1969-04-18 [exact/certain/final] | Forgiveness and the Immortal Eyes | And soon after your resurrection, which is the same night, you are born from above. And then days later, to be exact 139 days later, you find the Father. Then 123 days later comes the splitting of the curtain of the temple, which is your own body…and there you see what the lady saw, that liquid, molten gold. And then like a serpent…as you fuse with that gold you move up like a serpent back into your own skull, which is heaven (). Then 998 days later the dove descends upon you, because the whole thing is over and here the Spirit of the Most High has rested upon you (). Then you can say, as it… | 547838 |
| 1969-04-25 [exact/certain/final] | Persons Represent States in Scripture | Thirty years later the work that he hurled, which is myself, erupted to interpret scripture. I began to fulfill scripture within myself. And then I tell it to those who will listen and no one comes that my Father hasn’t brought him. So he draws us one by one to hear his Word as it unfolded within the one that he sent, and some believe it and some don’t believe it. He has no way of knowing who believes it and who doesn’t believe it…only in the visions of those who come. He can tell from the visions those who accepted it. But he departs this world to return not to a restored society like this,… | 539847 |
| 1969-05-05 [exact/probable/final] | The Wisdom, Power, and Glory Buried in Us | My dear, from the time I was a little boy I had things I could not understand, so I can’t go back to that. But I had mystical or psychic experiences that I did not understand that scared me to death. My one great one that began it all was when I was taken into the divine assembly and brought before the risen Lord. I’ve told you that story and I have written it. Well, that happened in 1929, in the summer of ’29. Thirty years later began the unfolding of these mighty acts of God within me: the resurrection and the birth, the discovery of the fatherhood of God, the splitting of the curtain of… | 547079 |
| 1969-06-02 [exact/certain/final] | The Sphere Within | One day in 1959, having been prepared because of the parts I have played throughout my long journey, I was magnetically drawn into that sphere. Then that which was already planted within me, erupted, and the drama of Jesus Christ unfolded, casting me in the central role as the being who gave himself for me. He had to prepare himself – as the being you call Neville – by suffering with me until the work he set out to do in me was finished. Then the honour was conferred, at which time everything said of Jesus Christ unfolded itself within me. | 540208 |
| 1969-06-09 [exact/certain/final] | The First Principle | After proving to myself that I am the life of a state, I questioned the statement: “I am the resurrection.” Then came the day when I felt myself resurrect within the grave of my own skull. I proved that I am the Father when my son came in the Spirit and called me “Father.” I discovered that I am the one who was sacrificed, for – knowing I am the Father – my spiritual body was split from top to bottom. Then I discovered that I was the one upon whom the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form as a dove. These things I now know to be true from experience, therefore I speak with authority. | 540245 |
| 1969-07-18 [exact/probable/final] | Eschatology | So this is the plan, and the only Christ is that Christ, not a single little being that was born of a woman who didn’t know a man. They will repeatedly say, “I must take on the weaknesses of the flesh and all the limitations of that.” If I came in here and my earthly father didn’t know my earthly mother, that was something entirely different — I can’t teach anyone what I haven’t experienced. I had to be conceived, and so I came in just as every child, and at the end of the journey I had to awaken within my own skull, and then experienced the entire story of Jesus in the first-person-singular… | 553348 |
| 1969-09-15 [exact/certain/final] | Imagination's Power | The pattern? Well, the New Testament begins not as it is said with the birth…although it is written that way…not in the Book of John, in the Book of Luke and Matthew. Mark does not begin it with the birth and neither does John. But I’ll tell you the pattern: the pattern begins with the resurrection. You resurrect within your own skull; that’s where you’re buried. God is buried in man and the burial ground is his skull, the skull of man. It’s called Golgotha in scripture, which means “skull.” You will awaken one day to discover that you’ve been a long, long time asleep. Someone who placed you… | 544565 |
| 1969-09-19 [exact/probable/final] | The Dreamer | Then a few months later he revealed that mystery to me by bringing before me his son David, and David called me Father. I knew him. He wasn’t simply a boy coming into my world and calling me Father with my knowledge not corresponding to it; there was innate wisdom. I knew exactly that he was my son, and he knew that I was his father. So here, God awakes within man. In every child in this world born of woman he will one day awake; and when he awakes he is the same God. There aren’t two Gods; therefore, you and I are really one. So in the end, although we seem now to be billions in this world,… | 543300 |
| 1969-09-22 [exact/probable/preferred] | The Nature of God | The fundamental story of scripture is a metamorphosis - a complete change of form. Like the grub worm is transformed into the butterfly, so man - as we understand him - is turned into Jesus Christ. And when it happens in you, there is no one to whom you can turn. It is a fact you cannot deny. I could no more deny my experiences of Christ unfolding within me, than I can deny the fact that I am standing before you now. And I am not unique. Christ will unfold in every child born of woman. He must, for God cannot and will not fail to fulfill his promise in all. | 540789 |
| 1970 [exact/certain/preferred] | Hope Deferred | There is the only God in the world. If you ever hear the word “Lord” mentioned, the word “God” mentioned, the word “Jesus Christ,” and your mind turns outside to some existence—something outside of man—may I tell you, that word to you is delusive. You have a false God, a false concept of Jesus Christ. Until—when you hear the word, and it rings a bell in you: “They’re talking about me, and I am all imagination”—you haven’t found Him. When you hear it, and you know, “He’s talking about me. He’s talking about my own wonderful reality, which is all imagination,” then you have found Jesus Christ. | 550481 |
| 1970-06-08 [exact/certain/final] | The Pattern of Scripture Is Real | “Scripture must be fulfilled in me.” So, I begin at the very beginning, in Genesis, and I go through the entire Scripture, and you weave it like a pathway. And I tell you, the path that I have followed – much of it is suffering. And there are highlights; they are all glorious – the highlights. Then comes the end when the Holy Spirit descends upon you; and when He descends upon you and you hear that lovely voice coming, and the voice says He loves you, and that is why he penetrates this ring of offense to demonstrate His love for you, and here you feel and see the symbol of the Holy Spirit… | 527168 |
| 1971 [exact/certain/final] | Invisible | I fastened myself to it. Eventually, years later, the whole thing unfolded within me as to what really took place back in 1929, when I stood in the presence of the risen Lord. Well, now, who stood there? My body was in my hotel room in New York City, and yet I had the sensation of motion. I stood in the presence of love. I had to be taken in spirit. And He who stood before me seemed to me as real as anything in this world—more so. Infinite love is man—just man. And I can’t just cry and say—I will say He’s the Ancient of Days. You can’t put time on Him. He’s beyond time. He’s the Ancient of… | 550767 |
| 1971 [exact/probable/final] | The World Is a Stage | Now, a secret or a mystery in Scripture is not a matter to be kept secret, but a revealed truth that is mysteriously inherent. He calls to me — who calls? You, the one who was sent — David stands before you, and two homosexuals stand next to you, and they’re looking at him, and you know they’re looking at him — your son — with concupiscence. And you warn these two homosexuals of his victory, and before you, on a table, is a head — an enormous head, severed from the body, and there is the head of Goliath. And you are living in the 20th century, and here is the head of Goliath, here is David,… | 554855 |
| 1971 [exact/certain/final] | Invisible | And then, in my own case, I said 30 years. 30 years later, you rise in that body. That’s when you rise. And then you’re part of the body. You’re part when you’re incorporated. But now you are living, awakened part, to be used in that capacity as the instrument to bestow the gifts, for He said, “Grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.” Well, grace is the gift—when the individual is completely regenerated, when that one is made equipped to receive the seed of God. | 550782 |
| 1971 [exact/probable/final] | Whom God Hath Afflicted | And then, as it grows, I am feeding — I started feeding on the sap of human nature, until I continued and I grew. Then came that moment in time, twelve years ago this year, when it was time for the fruit to appear, and the fruit of pain. And then, of a period of twelve hundred and sixty days, except in appearance, and all that is by faith of my Father — then I explained that I knew the reality of the detachment, and the incision into humanity. | 554826 |
| 1971 [exact/certain/final] | Invisible | It is 1929, all right, so I was 24. After 30, and finally, 54. It was when I was 54 years of age, in the city of San Francisco, that the whole thing began to erupt and unfold within me, because “He was about 30 years of age.” Now, John mentions it: “You know, Abraham?” “Why?” “You’re not yet 50.” Others put it, “Why, you are just about 50 years of age.” So he brings the age forward into the 50s. It doesn’t matter; it could happen, say, at 40. But then you’d have to go back to your time when you were 10, because it’s 30 years from the time of that regenerative act, which is a spiritual union… | 550792 |
| 1971 [exact/probable/final] | Those Who Know Thy Name | As I’ve been trying to tell you since it happened to me — it happened to me, or began, I would say, in 1959. The actual eruption began and came to its fulfillment on the first of January, 1963, when the dove descended and smothered me in affection, kissed me all over my face, my head, my neck, and remained upon me. So in that twelve hundred and sixty days, the whole drama unfolded in me. | 554583 |
| 1971-03 [between/probable/preferred] | The Mystery of Jesus Christ | And yet it happened in me. The entire pattern gathered itself together in me, and in 1,260 days it unfolded in me. And here I am now, fully conscious of the fact that I am the father of David, that David mentioned in those 39 books. I am fully conscious of the fact that it was of me that Moses wrote when he spoke of the fiery serpent rising up upon the great staff. It was of me that they wrote when that dove returned to the ark, and then Noah stretched out his hand — pardon me — and took him into the ark. That I am that ark, containing all things. All things are contained within me, and I am… | 555579 |
| 1971-03 [between/probable/preferred] | The Mystery of Jesus Christ | It begins with your own awakening within your scarab — that’s how it begins. You’re completely sealed within that scarab when you awaken. But you have the innate wisdom to get out without the help of any being in this world. You know exactly what to do, where to push. And you know exactly what you know you should do. And you do. You come out. And then the wind, spoken of in Scripture, surrounds you — the unearthly wind that you read of, Pentecost, the storm wind that came to them all, that unearthly wind. And then the scene as described in Matthew and Luke concerning the birth of God… | 555587 |
| 1971-03-26 [exact/certain/final] | Initiative | And that vision of the 42nd Psalm proves it beyond all doubt. When the voice said within me, “I laid myself down within you to sleep,” and as I slept, I dreamed a dream. I dreamed. I knew exactly what He was dreaming. He was dreaming of His “I.” And when He wakes, He is I, and I am He. Well, He woke within me on the morning of the 20th of July, 1959. That’s when He woke. And then, five months later, He revealed Himself as Father—not a Father out there, but in me as Father. And His son stood before me and called me “Father.” And then I knew what it meant: that one man must die, and save all… | 549065 |
| 1971-04-02 [exact/possible/preferred/estimated] | Truth Seen Is Not Forgotten | It must, because He sent me and His word, and He is called the Word of God. He only sends the Word. And I am the word that He sent. He embraced me—incorporated me into his body, which is infinite love—and then sent me. And therefore, I cannot return unto Him void. I must return unto Him, having completed the action that He sent me to perform. And so, having performed it, He has His own way now of spreading it. Just as a small, little company of 120 has overrun the earth—1,200 translations, including dialects—outnumbering all the best sellers put together year after year after year. And no one… | 551062 |
| 1971-05-10 [exact/certain/final] | Step into the Picture | That’s how it works. I know from my own personal experience. I am sharing with you what I have experienced, both in the world of Caesar and in the world that is transcendent, something entirely different; so when I speak of being “born from above,” I am not theorizing. I am telling you exactly what happened to me. When I speak of meeting the Son of God who calls me, “Father,” I am telling you exactly what happened to me. When I tell you I ascended into Heaven like a fiery serpent, as told in Scripture, that’s exactly what happened to me. When the dove descended upon my hand, and then… | 549528 |
| 1971-06-07 [exact/certain/final] | The Mystery Called Christ | But when the day comes for the individual, no one knows of that hour, of that day; only the Father knows. No one knows but the Father. Let no one tell you that they can tell you when it’s going to happen. I know from my own experience it comes so suddenly. Little did I expect the night I went to bed in San Francisco that that night, on July the 20th, 1959, was the night. Nor on the 6th day of December of the same year, did I know that that night the Fatherhood of God would be revealed to me by His Son, who would call me “father.” Little did I know of the Ascent into Heaven on the morning of… | 542024 |
| 1971-06-11 [exact/certain/final] | Jehovah's Messiah | So, in due time, thirty years later He unfolded Himself within me – in 1959. It took Him thirty years in preparation within me, like a gestation; and then suddenly He rose within me. Then I knew who He was. He came to me as one unknown, yet one who in the most wonderful, miraculous manner allowed me to experience Who-He-Is. When I experience who He is, I realized I am He. There were not two of us then – just one. I was all alone in the tomb wherein I was buried, and I didn’t realize throughout the years that I was the One spoken of in Scripture – that I was the buried one. | 556441 |
| 1971-06-18 [exact/probable/final] | Who Paul Really Is | I will tell you, all will make it, but all are not ready to make it. That was an adumbration. That was a foreshadowing of what is in store for everyone in this world. This is the mystery of life-through-death. Unless a seed, or the grain of wheat, falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it brings forth much. So, God dies . . literally dies. God became, as I AM, that I may be as He is. He can’t pretend that He is Neville. He has to actually become me, and therefore, in becoming me, He died. He is buried in my skull. That’s where He is buried. And the day will come, I… | 528999 |
| 1972 [exact/probable/final] | Who Is Jesus | I know in my own case it was revealed to me that “I will make myself known unto you in a vision, and I will speak with you in a dream.” Well, he revealed himself to me as the dreamer in me. He said, “I laid myself down within you to sleep, and as I slept I dreamed a dream.” I dreamed, and I knew what he was dreaming: he is dreaming that he is I, and that when he awakes, I am he. He was revealed to me as vividly as anything could be to anyone. He laid himself down within me to sleep, and in his sleep he had a dream, and he is dreaming that he is I. | 554770 |
| 1972 [exact/probable/final] | Immortal Man | So I am finding myself in a state where I’m called. The night I was called, back in 1929, I had no idea I had arrived at that state. But here I am, called into the presence of infinite love, and it’s man. Having answered his question correctly, that love was the greatest thing in the world. He embraced me and we fused and became one body, one spirit. For he who is united to the Lord becomes one spirit with the Lord. At that moment it was not enough to be called and to be incorporated into the body of God, but to be sent on a mission. And I did not know that mission until it unfolded itself… | 553744 |
| 1972 [exact/certain/preferred] | David Christ | I can’t tell anyone the shock that was mine when it unfolded itself in me. I was raised in a Christian home and considered myself, and still do, a Christian. I feel that Christianity is the fulfillment of Judaism. You can’t separate them. It’s a hyphenated word, and you cannot separate them. When someone takes the New Testament and gives one the New Testament and says, “That’s all you need,” it’s stupid. It’s like giving me the solution of a problem and telling me, “Now just write down the solution — that’s all that the teacher wants from you,” and I do not know what I’m writing. Here is the… | 556032 |
| 1972 [exact/probable/final] | Immortal Man | But to make myself clear: when you are in the final state, the apostle, it doesn’t mean you’re better than you yourself when you’re in that multitude of confusion, for God was playing that as he’s playing the state of the apostle. But God is above all states, and you are God, so you’re not an apostle forever — you play that, and that’s the final part of the journey, and you come out redeemed. When you hit that state and you know that you are the apostle, because you’re sent, and the apostle is one who is sent — it’s only then you know you’ve been chosen for a definite reason, and you’re sent… | 553768 |
| 1972 [exact/probable/final] | God's Son | It took me 1,260 days or you can say three-and-a-half months, or three-and-a-half years, pardon me, or forty-two months. These things are all in Scripture. Forty-two months, three- and-a-half years, or “time, times, and half a time,” or 1,260 days. It takes exactly 1,260 days. From the 20th day of July of 1959 to the first day of January 1963, comes to 1,260 days. And that was the interval in which the whole thing happened. Our visions came after that but they are not considered the mark. These are the marks that took 1,260 days. | 550752 |
| 1972-03-17 [exact/certain/final] | Ends Ultimate and Temporary | So, we are told, and I acted, and it came to pass. I acted and it came to pass. And so, I didn’t see a being on the outside calling himself God. I awoke within my skull and found it to be a sepulcher. It was I who awoke, it was I who came out. It was I who found a little child wrapped in swaddling clothes. It was I who saw the three witnesses, bearing witness to the event that I had just experienced. It was I who heard the wind and the wind was like some storm. It was I who saw David, who revealed to me that I am his Father and he is my Son. It was I whose body was split in two from top to… | 526310 |
| 1972-04 [circa/probable/preferred] | Acts of God | He does not put it in a chronological manner. No one does in scripture. I think I have given you a far greater chronological picture than anyone I have ever seen in print. I have told you exactly how it happened to me and the spaces in between from the moment of the awakening within me which is resurrection and the birth coming the same night 139 days later for the discovery of the son who reveals me as father. Then 123 days after that for the splitting of the curtain of the temple and I am the temple for my whole body was split and then another 998 day not no two years beyond that bringing… | 557423 |
| No date on record | The Promise's Fulfillment in You | And when the dream is over, we aren’t two. We are one. No longer will he simply treat me as something on the outside, an emanation of His. No more the emanation, He cleaves to me and we become one being. So when a man leaves this world, his father, his mother, and cleaves to his wife, and this is the wife, the emanation of God. Yet, though His emanation, it’s his wife until the dream is over. When the sleep is over, we aren’t two. We’re one. And I know that when I awoke within me, I wondered, “How did I get here? Who put me here?” For this is a tomb. This is a sepulcher and only one who… | 540769 |
| No date on record | Imaginal Acts Become Facts | So here in time, while we are in time, the play erupts, and then I know exactly who I am. I was taught to believe the whole thing took place 2,000 years ago. Then to discover it isn’t so at all — it has no reference to position in time, and no reference as to duration. It’s a standing order, something to be done absolutely and continuously, and it’s always been done within us. And then we have moved out of the time slot into eternity, enhanced beyond the wildest dream of man by reason of the experience in this world of death. | 548175 |
| No date on record | Imaginal Acts Become Facts | Well, I am telling you what I have experienced. I have reached the end. The whole thing is now an accomplished fact within me. He, in the depth of my own being, who revealed himself as myself, has wrought it. The very end of the 22nd Psalm: unborn tomorrow will know that God has wrought it in him. No praise to me as a man called Neville, or what — but the drama unfolded itself completely within me, and I speak from experience when I speak of these characters of scripture. And so I cannot now get down on my knees and bow before anyone named in that book — they’re all eternal states of… | 548179 |
