How do we know that Jesus had beautiful thoughts?

Answered in 1 source

We know Jesus had beautiful thoughts because He exemplified all virtues of the fruit of the Spirit, lived in perfect holiness, and conveyed love in all His actions.

The certainty of Jesus' beautiful thoughts is supported by the complete absence of sin or imperfection in His character. He consistently exhibited virtues aligned with the fruit of the Spirit, including love, joy, peace, and goodness. Scripture reveals that 'He never had a sordid thought, an impure thought, a trivial thought, a selfish thought,' showcasing the purity of His mind.

Additionally, Jesus’ thoughts were always in communion with His Father, reflecting deep love and compassion for those around Him. His physical face, marked by a transcendent beauty, was the outward expression of His inner purity and divine thoughts. By reflecting on His life and teachings, as well as how He engaged with the world, we understand that His mind was the epitome of what Philippians 4:8 calls believers to meditate upon, affirming that His thoughts were indeed beautiful and rooted in divine truth.
