Goddard viewed the Bible as a parable of the human psyche as opposed to a record of historical events. Therefore, Goddard did not believe in an external God who answers prayers, but rather that “[y]ou are the creator”.
Herein, does the law of assumption work?

Similarly, what Neville Goddard book should I read first?
The Power of Awareness is my favourite book and serves as an ideal starting point. It lays out the primary foundations of Neville’s teachings. Your Faith is Your Fortune is definitely one of my favourites, however it’s more recommended for people who have read at least one Neville Goddard book already.
