      One Greater Than John - Neville Goddard

      Neville Goddard Lecture – One Greater Than John

      Tonight’s subject is One Greater Than John. I think you will find this a most practical approach to this teaching.

      When we open the Bible we think it is just a normal book. May I tell you, it is not; it is divine history and all the characters in scripture represent states of consciousness, from Adam to Jesus, every one. They’re not individuals as you and I are; they’re simply representatives of these states of awareness. And the very last before the page turns into an entirely new age is called John.

      And so we are told in the earliest of the gospels, which is Mark: After John was arrested, Jesus came preaching the gospel of God (John 1:14). After John was arrested then he appears preaching the gospel of God. What is this story trying to tell us?

      So here, let me share with you my experience. I didn’t know it either, but I’ll tell you how this thing works. John, we are told, is the very last of the great prophets. As we’re told, Of those born of women, none is greater than John; yet the least in the kingdom is greater than he (Mat.11:11).

      None greater than John in this world, yet the least in the kingdom is greater than he. And John came not eating or drinking. If you take that on this level, that’s nonsense, because the body could not survive. Another gospel states it, He came neither eating bread nor drinking wine. That tries in some way to, well, explain what he did not eat or drink.

      Well, there’s no statement in the law of Moses against eating bread or drinking wine – unless you are one of the Nazarenes and it’s true as to wine, but certainly not eating bread. The last supper was the eating of bread and the drinking of wine. But he came, neither eating bread (if you want to take it certainly not eating bread).
