Series 2 - Lesson 5 - Annotation 5
What is the one true standard of thinking?
5. The one true standard of thinking is the Jesus Christ standard based on absolute Truth. The Jesus Christ standard of thinking is thought that is unclouded by doubt, fear, or distrust, but is luminous with love, faith, and understanding.
The Christ pattern is the one true, perfect man — spiritual man — created in the image of God, and is the real Self of every man. For us to observe and practice the one true standard of thinking is to know that we have in us the same Mind which was in Jesus Christ, so that we may express and manifest outwardly the likeness of God's image.
The daily prayer of everyone who would conform his thought patterns to the one true standard of thinking should be in the words of the Psalmist:
"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer" (Psalms 19:14 A.V.).
