Accurate Thinking

From the June 1970 issue of The Christian Science Journal


In every legitimate human activity accuracy enables one to play one's part well. Even in sports one must perform accurately. Successful flights to the moon evidence an extreme degree of human accuracy.

To accomplish anything worthwhile, one cannot be careless or slipshod; he must be meticulous and precise in thinking and action. One definition of accuracy is, "freedom from mistake or error," and another, "exact conformity to truth."

The study and practice of Christian Science teaches us to think accurately, to think from the standpoint of spiritual truth. Science teaches that God is the only cause and creator and that man, the true individuality of each one of us, is the effect of the divine cause. In the degree that it is spiritually understood that God, divine Mind, is expressed through His idea, one awakens to the inherent good of his true being, or individual consciousness, and can separate from his thinking the sense of evil, discord, and confusion.
