Episode notes
Christ Is The Measure To Reach
- Christ is the objective standard we must aim for rather than measuring ourselves against others.
- Lawrence Corbridge cites Paul's phrase that Christ is the measure given by God and warns against comparing ourselves with peers or self-commendation.
Set A Clear High Standard Not Small Improvements
- Aim at a clear, high standard rather than gradually comparing yourself to yesterday's self.
- Corbridge uses Roger Bannister's four-minute mile as an example of setting an absolute measure (the clock) to stretch performance.
Divine Standards Reveal Our Dependence
- The Lord's command to be 'even as I am' and 'perfect' can provoke discouragement but serves to reveal our dependency on God.
- Corbridge cites Moses, Job, Isaiah, Nephi, Ammon, and King Benjamin to show righteous humility when encountering God.
