Christ Is Your Life
When I speak of Christ being your life, I am saying he is your imagination, for life is an activity of imagination. Ask yourself what you are imagining right now and you will discover what Christ has created. For by him all things are created, and without him is not a thing created that is created.
Neville explicitly equates Christ with the human imagination, stating that life itself is an activity of imagination. Therefore, whatever one imagines, Christ (as their imagination) is creating it, echoing the biblical statement that all things are created by him.
Is Christ Your Imagination
I say he is our imagination, that is the power, the creative power of the universe. Look around. Do you know anything in the world of man that man has created – from the clothes that he wears to the homes that he inhabits – that wasn’t first imagined? Do you know of anything in this world that is now proved as fact, as a concrete reality, that wasn’t first imagined – only imagined, and then it externalized? Yes, using hands, using implements of the world, but it first began as an image, and an image is simply the product of this reforming image-making faculty in man, which is man’s imagination. Now, if “All things were made by him and without him was not anything made that was made,” I can’t come to any other conclusion than the fact that Christ of scripture is my imagination.
Neville asserts that Christ, the creative power and wisdom of God through whom all things were made, is synonymous with human imagination. Everything created by man originates as an imagined image, proving that imagination is the Christ of scripture operating within each individual.
