Neville Goddard 10-19-1969 According to a rabbical principle, that which is not written in scripture is non-existent. The story of Jesus Christ follows this principle.

Neville Goddard 10-26-1968 I say imagination creates reality, and if this premise is true then imagination fulfills itself in what your life becomes.

Neville Goddard 11-17-1969 The body of scripture is the Word of God, which every child born of woman must hear, assimilate, understand, and fully accept.
