Father Forgive Them - Neville Goddard

0:00So, it I see that you observe days and months and seasons and years. I am afraid I have labored over you in days. And here we are the thousand weeks of observing these different days. This is the season. I am actually three years. What we gave to the world is this, that the spirit of God and the human imagination are one. He said, we did not receive the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God. Whether they understand the gift, be stowed upon us by God.

1:05Here is the one that became the man, that the many may become the one. Where one must be old and comprehend within itself all things both small and great. Everything in the world, all that I behold, that appears without it is within in my imagination. I wish this world is more terribly, is but a shadow. So when we are told in I, if I be listed out, I will list all men and draw all main underneath. Now we are told, he is listed out. Therefore, all main are already redeemed. Now they have to experience it within themselves.

2:08They are already redeemed. But in this world, mortality, this must be now, I will say, repeated within the individual. For he must contain an experience all within himself. And it only God in this world. God only acts and is in existing beings or men. So let me share with you a story that is given to me last Friday night. This lady's husband's name is Ray. By using the word Ray, I am speaking of her husband. But last year Ray said to me, it is going to cost $1,000 to put on a roof, a new roof. We need the roof, but it cost $1,000.

3:12She didn't say they did not put on a for it. She said, I saw the new roof. Right thing in there, I saw the new roof. I think that I was working at my sewing machine. It's an old one, but it was adequate. It did the job. But I would like a new one, you said. And so I imagined a new one. There was the old one, but I imagined a new one. Then I was putting away my tape recorder. And I felt how terrible this thing is. I would like a new light weight one. I put the old one away, the heavy one, but I thought I would like a new one. That is light away. So I put it away, the new one. That was light away.

4:14Then she said, Ray said to me, my new shoes hurt. He did what them and they were hurt. I wanted him to have shoes did not hurt. That's in my imagination. All this was last year. Bring came the turn of the calendar year, and we had a robbery. No, the didn't steal the roof, but the two three others moved the objects. And this past week I got a settlement from the insurance company for me for $2,000 and $50.00. I now have my nice new sewing machine. I have my nice light weight tape recording. Ray's shoes do not hurt.

5:18And there is money for the roof and much, much, much leftover. Now, who instigated the robber? Now on Friday you will hear, if you go to service, there are seven words on the cross. Three taken from Luke, three from John, and one from Matthew, and Mark, the same one from Matthew and Mark, which is the fourth one. My God, my God, why has South forsaken us? That's the one taken from these two. That's all. But the first one used on the cross is from Luke. Father, forgive them, for they know not what they did. Everything is moving under compulsion.

6:19No one sees the invisible causation. No one sees the invisible, immaginal acts. And putting pressure upon everyone who is thinking in a certain direction before the needed act to produce the immaginal act that is completely unseen by the world. Every natural act, natural effect has a spiritual cause and not a natural. A natural cause only sees it is the illusion of the fading, vegetable memory. Now in her letter to me, she said, these things I remember. Well last year, but I remembered them. In her case, she is blessed that she could remember when Ray said to her, she was going to cost $1,000 to put on the new root.

7:28And I saw the new root. Even with the moment, maybe we thought we could not now afford the new root. When I used my sewing machine, it was adequate. It was good. It did the job. But I would like a new one. And I saw a new one. And when I put away my tape recording, it's all right. It was adequate. But it was heavy when I put it away. I thought I've seen all these nice new light weight ones. And I would like a nice light weight one, good one. Now she said, I have all of them. I have my nice new light weight, my new machine, raised to, they do not hurt. And the root will be a new one. The money is there and much less over. So the first cry on the cross, father forgives them.

8:30They know not what they do. They're all asleep, moving under compulsion. And men in women, unwittingly, most of them, sound wittingly, or setting the whole thing in motion, understand the mood. So someone given to the feeling of getting something for nothing, so he takes the tape recorder, they've exiled it for anything that's proper. They cost him nothing. But I want to call her, whatever he could get for it, that was sheer profit. If he goes out and finds something that he stole for a hundred, and if it's moving quickly for $15, one gets a bargain, he made $15. They cost him nothing, his investment is nothing. And those in the world who think that way, they're all passing through the furnaces. So the first word on the cross, a word on the cross does not mean a single word.

9:34It's a completed thought. So the shortest word is either, but the two words. Then the next one, from John, is finished, the three words. All right, till it is one word, when you take the seven words. So the first word is from Luke. For the forgiveness, they know not what they do. And then comes Luke's second, then comes John's first, then comes Matthew and Mark, and then comes you from John, and then Luke completes it. Father, in to thy hands, I commit my first. Very sad, and this little punctuation mark has been pushed around in the second word on the cross, which is from Luke.

10:34And the peace goes to him and asks him to have mercy on it. And he said, the whole life, stay on the earth. Today, thou shalt not with me in paradise. But you could order the punctuation mark, but the comma after today. But no, leave it just as it is. Behold, I say on thee, today, thou shalt not with me in paradise. This is now resurrection. And I, when I am lifted up, I will draw all men underneath. For all things are in my own wonderful human imagination. And I am all imagination. So when I am lifted up, I draw all, at the very moment, I draw them all with me. But they individually have the experience that I have had. But they are already redeemed, because I took them up with things.

11:38Because all things exist in the human imagination. And anyone who is resurrected, but you can't be resurrected, and leave behind him any part of himself. So the whole of us will, is raised up within. I am telling my experience to heavenly call a scene when this thing could place. This scene, the fall, actual fall into division, and the resurrection into unity. Let's sing it out. And then the regeneration, resurrection from the day, we actually sing it out. And the word, it is finished, I heard it, but I didn't sing it. The heavenly call is saying it. When I walk by and everyone was made perfect, as I was perfect.

12:40And then, at the very end, the call is saying out, it is finished. That was the sixth word on the cross. And the last one is where this garment comes off. That is the 31st song. The fifth verse. Into the eyehands, I commit my spirit. Complete the verse. Now, have to be deemed as, oh no, please, oh God. That was the promise of the beginning. I would fall into division and become fragmented, dwelling in awe. That now a thing in this world would be a promise from me. So, how could I be a promise from something that I'm going to injure? Because all things by a law divine in one another's being mingle. If I'm not penetrating you now, I couldn't see you.

13:41You couldn't hit if I did not penetrate you and you penetrated me. So, all things by a law divine in one another's being mingle. And when I am lifted up, I take this with me my entire universe, my whole vast world. Knowing that everyone that is now shattered in that world will have a repetition of the same experiences. For one is fell into division and then resurrecting into unity, bringing all back together into the one. So, in her taste, I can't tell you how thankful I am that she shared it with you. That she could now actually feel that the roughly which seemed at the moment of the shock. She lost the tape recorder. She lost this all the movable objects. Then came the settlement from the insuring company for $2,050, which replaced these with the new ones.

14:49All the lights and enough to put it on the roof and then still they're filled. So, Father forgive them. Yes, the thieves of thieves is your self pushed out anyway. Where someone is tonight accused for stealing maybe one? A little cup or a saucer. And yet the bank where I banked, the United California bank, they're still looking for the internal fee to stole $50 million last year from their subsidiary in Kassam, in Switzerland. But $50 million. And they know it all is on the inside. It only be on the inside by trusted employees. They think they can bring it down to six. Six pasted in loan.

15:51They can't buy what their fingers on it because in Switzerland, they're all these spainting accounts. But they are missing $50 million. So, someone goes into the bank and holds it out and gets $1000. I mean balloon the whole thing. The other thing is Hush Hush. Here is the bank in Illinois a few months ago. So, it's $7 million and they still can fight but their finger and how it happened on the inside. No one came in a robber. And we sleep of the little shoplifting on the outside. And the poor little girl goes off the chair. Or the little boy goes off the chair. I'm not condoning it. If you could stop the investment from the inside. Your dividends would jump from a spend little 3% or 4% to 20%. If you could only stop it from the inside.

16:54And it happened really in the true sense of the word from the inside. So, every so-called act in the outer world. It seems so. So, a cause in itself. I tell you every natural effect has a spiritual, a magical cause and not a natural. A natural cause only seems its illusion of what? The paging memory. Man can't quite remember. Pardon me. Luckily, she remembered when Ray said we could use and need a new roof. But it would cost $1,000 and so that's put into the future. She remembered when we complained the new shoes were hurting. You know, a mind's eye, he revised it instantly at that moment. The roof and the shoes.

17:58When she worked on her machine, she revised it. It was adequate. But she said, I have a new machine. So in machine. I'm putting the heavy tape recorder away. She wanted a new one that was light away and she revised it. And she got in her mind's eye a light weight new tape recorder. Then she goes home one day to find a house and been robbed. She carried insurance of the bodily insurance. And here, they're paid a $2,000 which replace all these things in a new way. So I tell you, this story is the greatest story ever told. There's no story like it. But Christianity needs forever and forever to be safe from secular history.

19:04It is not secular history. It's the history of your own wonderful human imagination. God and your own imagination are one. They're one. You are an immortal beast. You cannot die because you're all imagination. And when you actually know it from experience, then you can wipe your tears. Nothing compares to it. You may not see them as a mortal eye, touching with a mortal hand, but they are in a world just as real as this. Continue in the journey until there is that moment in time when they are resurrected. And then the scattered body begins to be collected and they gather together into one. So one must be all and comprehend with eating self.

20:11Everything goes great and small. And you are that one. You're actually pale. And then, in falling, you became fragmented. You became divided into the unnumbered parts. And it seems to be independent of you as you let out on it. You're only looking out on yourself, who is out? And your whole world must make real your unknowing, immatinal act, or your knowing, immatinal acts. I ask you to trust this teaching. Believe in your immatinal act. You may not see it tonight or tomorrow, but believe in it. Act, you assume the most glorious thing in the world for yourself or any aspect of yourself. Trust me. And that immatinal act, if it takes a thousand or ten thousand or a hundred thousand of your projected self,

21:19will use them to make that thing become real in your world. Like you said in her letter to me, you may call it imagination or some may call it thought. For this I do know, having remembered what I did last year, I can say it does produce reality. That shows me time and time again, immatinal increase, age, reality. That all the objective facts of the world are produced, reimagining. There is this thing that you can name in this world that was on the first image. But you can veto it the minute you are back. You can say, as she could have said, we can't afford it and stop it. She didn't sell we can't afford a thousand dollars for the roof. She saw the roof and it was new. But you didn't see the robbery. That's the mean. Now let me turn you now to the 55th chapter of Isaiah.

22:24My way are higher than your way and my thought than yours. This is the chapter where you'll tell my words shall not be turned unto me void. But it must be accomplished that would I have perfect and prosper in the thing which I sent it. So my way higher than your way, don't concern yourself with how it's going to be done. For the same voice who spoke these words said this in the 32nd chapter of Deuteronomy, the 59th verse, I even I am here. I kill. I make a life. I wound. I heal. I do all these things and none can deliver out of my hand.

23:30He's playing all the part. And if one is physically inclined to steal, he will use it to produce the necessary need to get the money to put on the roof. So she comes home and there was a robbery. All the things have been replaced with new ones and better ones as he desired them. At the moment it seemed to be a shock, but she's at the whole thing up in motion. Or she's the one who spoke those words, I kill and I make a life. I wound and I heal. And none can deliver out of my hands. For the spirit of God and the human imagination are one. I'm with nothing but God. All things were made by him and without him was not anything made. It was made. And so if all things are made by him, he's right. He from the world. He's playing that part.

24:33He's right. So called hero in the world. He's playing that part. He's playing every part in the world. And it all adds up to produce the unseen, immaginal acts of men. So you are alone and you think no one sees me. And this means nothing. It's only my imagination. And you carry on your lovely, immaginal act. And so that's it. Not knowing that you're actually producing the more effects in this world. When it comes into the world, that natural effect has an unseen, invisible, immaginal act as calls. And not a natural call. A natural call only seems, it is a delusion. A delusion is what? Are you failing memories? You don't remember when you did it. So when confronted with your own harvest, you can't quite believe it.

25:38You can't remember when you did anything that could actually be like this. I didn't rob myself. I never thought for one moment I was robbing to get the money. No, but I did see the whole thing done. And they all see you in the world all over the world. And they all played by God. There is nothing but God. God only acts and he's in existing being or men. Now let me find that act because God only acts and he is in all existing being or men. What I'm a man, I'm trying to find that act. For the thing that I see reflected in the mirror when I share with the morning is the mask that's persona. Now who is wearing that mask? I answered, you say, Neville, I turn around. I say, yes, here I am. But who is the being that is there?

26:44I am. That's my real name. But the mask is called Neville. But I will say, I am Neville. So the wearer of the mask called Neville is strong. That being in that mask, behind that mask that no one sees is God. Another whole mask is written to celebrate this victory of God that he actually died, literally died. But God's first attribute is mercy. And God turned this into a secret. And then rose with sex to work and to use. And so all of sex is rose as man. When God died, he buried himself being humanity and died.

27:48And then his first attribute was mercy, turned into a secret. That's what Blake made when he said eternity exists. And all things in eternity, independent of creation, which was an act of mercy. That was the mostful act. He turned death into sleep and God is reading this being. One day he will awake. A one year awake, he was awake. And then he gallows into his own being. All his cannot be. So all are gathered together. When I depart this time, I may say, you I am taking everything in the universe with me. And I, when I am lifted up, I will raise all unto me, reading in the felt chapter of John.

28:49Not one can be left because all things exist in the human imagination. But it's not raised up until he, who is kept, is awakened to unit. And then he draws into his own being, all that was gathered. So the sin is fall into division and his resurrection to unity. He is fall into the generation of decay and death and his regeneration into the generation or the resurrection from the day. So when he actually is raised from the day, he gathered all into his own being. And they're all within. But where he goes, he has his own vast world raised up as an effron behind them.

29:51But everyone, shattered in the world, would have a reproduction of that drama within themselves. So what is now being dramatized as a memorial, this is a memorial. This is simply a great memory, a remembrance of what God has already accomplished. And so they're perpetuating it through good pride, then comes the burial of saturday, then comes the resurrection of Sunday. But the whole thing is done. It's all done. And we need to be repeated in the individual, and in the individual, who is the Seaman scattered, becomes the unit. And he draws his vast world unto himself, and he is resurrected. So the one becomes the many, and then the many become the one. So whenever one is raised, he takes his whole vast world with him.

30:51Even though it seems to be left behind, and every aspect that it's seemingly is behind, becomes the unit, and then it raises up. So one must be all. That is the story of the Christian history. One must be all. So the first try on the cross, for all of the forgiveness, they know not what they do. And they do not know what they do. They go blindly on under compulsion, executing the unseen immatinal acts of humanity. And they move on the compulsion to pick this up. I told the story, I was so very criticized for it, by a lady in a dinner party one night, when Fred Bales, who has now gone from this world.

31:53And he gave a party at the ambassador hotel. And I had told the story about two weeks before, and one of his great, I would say, contributors. You would come and always like, you will big check at the end of a year or a month to keep that going. And he was most critical that night, as I said, I didn't think about that at all. And she said, you know, I can quite understand how you protect the platform, an audience of 26 hundred, a thousand who could not get in the all overflowing at the thought of the world. I'm telling you what you told concerning your wife. That was my first wife. I told a simple story to explain that everything in this world must be forgiven, I don't care what it is. When I met the girl who now bears my name, who is the mother of my daughter, the very first moment I met her, I knew she is going to be my wife.

32:58She didn't know it, but I knew it. I said to myself, he doesn't know it, but she is going to be my wife. We sell for barbader six months later, she met my mother and my family, met the moral, they all loved them. Back in 1936, in New York, that is because of some arcade law, it's now passed. You couldn't get a divorce unless he was insane for seven years for a doubtful. And that's all. Talk about Christian Church, it is so the whole thing up so that it made life miserable. I made everything simply well-aburned to all. When I met her, I had just such an entangled background. And here is New York City, the more arcade city in the world concerning its laws.

33:59I went to bed and stepped as though I were happily married to the girl who now bears my name. I did not have any physical emotion whether, just he was sleeping there and I am there and is blissful. I did that for one solid reason. Then come a telephone call from the court one morning. Telling me that I must come down through this federal court on Tuesday morning. But I was wrong, he was early in the morning. And he knows that I didn't rise as early as I do now. And so I just said, alright, and I hung up. Fast I hung up, I wonder what on earth is all this nonsense. What have I done? I must be in court, I haven't you see the summons? Now what I see, I must be in court.

35:02Well on Tuesday morning, I am supposed to, I may know every go there. From about 9.30 the phone rang. It's the court. And there is page of me, you are supposed to be here in court this morning, you need a tin. Now if you want to answer the mic, you are supposed to be in court. It says, well, it happens that your wife is arrested. And you talk, maybe you could throw some light on the reasons for her arrest. That's why we are asked to come down. Well I wasn't shaved, I can be threw myself into the clothes, the fall high went to a taxi, down to the court. And I got there just as I was bringing her in. Man whispered into the tree, like this, one jacket pair that I was in the audience. The jacket has three detectives, you don't have to swear. But will you please take the pain and throw some light on the behavior of your wife?

36:03She tells me you have been separated now for almost 14 years. As it gets. Is it a religious reason why you have been separated? No, none whatsoever. When you were wrong, the body of her is daily God-matter. When you were completely afraid of the skin as well, right away. When the case, she would pick up for shoplifting. She went to her home and found other things in her house. Like what? You said for this. I have a far-as-arms concern. I don't think it really. She is a shoplifter. A far-as-arms concern, she just moved under compulsion, taking the consideration her age. She's eight years my senior. And she's passing through a certain emotional state. Until the leader, we have a son and he lives with me. And I don't want anything to happen to his mother that would cast any chef on his life.

37:08He's a wonderful boy. He's in my charge by law. He is in my home, lived with me, and I don't want anything to happen to her. But in any way, it would reflect upon my son. The judge said, you know, in all of my years on the bench, I have heard no plea by one for another who has every reason in this world to get her committed. Because that in any other state would be enough for what he wants to do to the world. And yet he pleads for it. The sentence hurts a six month. And then on my plea, he suspended it. She met me on the outside and said, never that was a very decent thing to do. Give me my paper. She knew I was looking for it. And my dancing partner told her I was looking for a serve of paper and therefore to be scared and noob out of New York City.

38:09So she did. But she encouraged to commit to the act and they had the call. And asked me to throw right upon that. How could I condemn her? Who was the actual cause of her shoplety? I. I slept as though I were blissfully married to the girls who now bear my name. And I had to get the evidence. I had to get some reason to bring the act and hear my wife actually gave me the paper. I said, I don't have the paper drifting. She's ungrinding home to your face right now and you can give me the paper. That's illegal to serve your own paper. But he drove up to my hotel where I lived. I went to my room, came down with a lot of them, gave me the paper. Did my own service. Now that is an illegal thing in this world.

39:10What can I cut my table? In the city of New York, and I could marry the girls who now bear my name. And when I told it, I told it only to tell people that one word, the first word on the cross, probably forgive them. For they know not what they do. They're all moving under compulsion. And the unseen causation is hitting from the world. They do not know who is treading in the wine friends. And I was treading in the wine friends to be happily married to a girl who was not then engaged to me. So I couldn't engage her under the circumstances. And then my wife behaved in such a manner that it made it real and not for me to do what I did. How can I blame her? So the first word on the cross, for all the forgiveness, they know not what they do. They have to do what they do.

40:11I have to fall into division and fragment my being into the unnumbered part called humanity. And then rise into unity and gather all my scattered members together and rise as God Himself has the story. It is God's will, and God's will. So I know for my only experience, nothing dies. Those who have not had experience came, alright, they restored in a world that is correct. So just like this. And they continue their journey until that moment in time went. They're resurrected. And resurrection is resurrection into unity. And the picture where the whole vast universe is Himself, for sure, is gathered together. And they move up and I, when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw all name unto me.

41:17This is the mystery of which we speak here night after night. You are not some tiny little thing that's pushed out. You are the whole. One must be all. And three more times, you will find that you really are the all. So not one person in the universe could be outside of you who reigns you are resurrected. Because as you are raised up, you raise all this. And each would have the experience of being raised up. And all things will be the one. And in that day, they shall be one. His name was, we told in Zakiraya,

42:17a black desert of beauty plate in his green of nine nights, called Zala, or the four Zell. And then he tells the story of the falling into division. When they are all gathered together, this one man they call Jesus. And they in Him and in Him live in perfect harmony in Eden, the land of life. For you are the Lord Jesus Christ, who is resurrected and will celebrate this coming Sunday. Who tells that to the priest, the slave? Tell that to any minister. Because they are some to speak. They do not know who the Lord Jesus Christ is.

43:22I tell you, the Lord Jesus Christ is buried in you. And is your own wonderful human imagination. That's the Lord Jesus Christ. And when He is raised in you, you will raise all in this universe with you. That is the story. So I want to thank my friend for sharing with me her experience and being vegan up to remember. The man could only remember the emotional acts. She remembered when the loose needed repairs or a new one. And the cost was excessively high for them at the moment. She remembered her husband complaining about the pain the mission calls. The weight of the tape recorder.

44:23And they were working on the machine, throwing machine and it was added but it was good. But she will like a new one. And then came out of the nowhere, a robbery. And to all these movable objects. And then came the insurance that sent the check for 2000 hours. That replaced all the movable objects and enough for the room and much, much over. So she can actually say, forgive them for them. Who took it? Is it not you, her or the other? And yet they are pleased with their own eyes and peas in the eyes of society. And they are, you know, who plays the part? God. And you know, who actually made them do what they did? Lady who wrote me the letter. Now she knows the words in that 32nd chapter of the Deuteronomy. I, even I am he.

45:25And there is no God beside me. I kill and I make the life. I wound and I heal. And there is none that can deliver out of my hand. And then what happened if we only had the memory we could face it to have forgotten a marginal act on our part?
