Neville’s Reading in Brazen Impudence
All humanity is ultimately one divine being, the Lord Jesus Christ, sharing a single divine essence and Father.
Keep sharing this principle, because in the end we are all the one being who is the Lord Jesus Christ. One body, one Lord, one Spirit, one God and Father of all.

Neville’s Reading in Eschatology The Doctrine Of The End
The ultimate realization is that all individuals are gathered into one perfect body, one Spirit, one Lord, and one God and Father of all, signifying a profound and complete oneness with the divine and each other.
In that day, you will know that I dwell in them and thou in me, and we, all gathered together are perfect in that one body, one Spirit, one Lord, one God and Father of all.
Neville’s Reading in Eschatology The Drama Of The End

In the end all will awaken to be the one body, the one Lord, one hope, one faith, the one God and Father of all. Returning one by one, we are that one body, one Spirit, one Love!

Neville’s Reading in Faith
Ultimately, all individuals are united in one divine being, which is Jesus, God, and the Father. This oneness is the ultimate truth of existence, though it requires personal experience to be fully believed.
So, in the end there is only one body, and that one body is Jesus. “One body, one spirit, one lord, ... one God and Father of all” So, in the end, all are Jesus! All are God! All are the Father! I can tell you in words, but I can’t persuade you.

Neville’s Reading in Follow Me

Practical Reflection
- Reinforces the unity of consciousness and the shared divine identity, implying that what you imagine for others, you imagine for yourself, and vice versa.
- Live with the consciousness of being part of the 'one body' and 'one God and Father of all,' fostering a sense of universal unity and love in your interactions and beliefs.
- Recognize the inherent oneness of all beings with God. This understanding removes perceived separation and empowers the individual to manifest, knowing they are operating from the singular divine source.
- Understanding this unity reinforces the principle of one cause, meaning that all experiences ultimately originate from and return to the singular divine consciousness.
