Thoughts are of two kinds:
a) Thoughts that belong entirely to the world of thought.
b) Thoughts that result in action.
The thoughts of our Lord Jesus Christ belonged to a high
spiritual world, but he also brought them into the world of action.
Some men and women have exalted thoughts, but if they do not
realize them in the world of action, they are useless. The power of thought is dependent on
manifestation in the world of action.
