Describing the mystical sequence that follows his 'birth from above,' Neville teaches that after rising from the tomb of his own skull, David -- his mystical 'son' -- appears within him roughly five months later, and he cries out, 'I have found David... Thou art my Father, my God and the Rock of my salvation.' He frames this as the universal pattern awaiting everyone who undergoes the same resurrection: every father figure in scripture is ultimately the believer himself, and every promised son is David.
