Imagination Plus Faith
Man is all imagination, and God is man and exists in us, and we in Him;” [Wm. Blake, from “Annotations to Berkeley’s ‘Siris’”] “The Eternal Body of man is the imagination, and that is God Himself” [Wm. Blake, from “Laocoon – The Angel of the Divine Promise”] – the Divine Body that we speak of as Jesus Christ. I firmly believe that this is the Christ of Scripture that is buried in man – buried in the only Holy Sepulcher that there ever was, and that is the skull of man. And there he dreams the Dream of Life, and one day He will awaken within your skull, and then the drama of Christ as defined for us in Scripture will unfold within you, casting you in the first-person-singular, present tense experience of the Lord Jesus Christ. Then you will know who He really is! You will actually awaken as the Lord Jesus Christ. That is the climax for every one born of woman. ... Well, I tell you, this Word that dwells in you, spoken of in Scripture as the Lord Jesus Christ, is your own wonderful human imagination. This is the greatest secret in the world, and every one should strive after solving it. Supreme power, supreme wisdom, supreme delight lies in the solution of this mystery. ... So, as far as I am concerned, the God who created it all and sustains it all is pure imagining in myself. ... So, here, when you know to Whom you pray and Who is actually doing it, you’ll find that it is your own wonderful human imagination. That is God.
Neville's central teaching is that God, the Eternal Body of man, the Christ of Scripture, the Word, and the Lord Jesus Christ are all synonymous with one's own wonderful human imagination. This divine imagination is buried within man's skull, dreaming the dream of life, and will one day awaken within each individual, revealing their true identity as the Lord Jesus Christ.
Step Into The Picture
I firmly believe, from my own experiences, that this God of whom the Bible speaks is our own wonderful human imagination; that God and the human imagination are one; that all natural effects in the world, though they are created by the Spirit of God, are caused by Spirit.
Neville teaches that the God described in the Bible, the sole creator and indwelling Spirit, is not separate from humanity but is one's own wonderful human imagination. This imagination is the spiritual cause behind all natural effects.
