WISDOM - SINCERE

 But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.”  James 3:13-17

The seventh and final characteristic of divine wisdom in James 3:13-17 is sincere.  Wisdom from God is without hypocrisy - it is sincere and open, steady and uniform, and consistent.  It is real.  It does not pretend to be what it is not.  It is always seeking nothing but God’s glory.   This wisdom is straightforward and offended by scheming and plotting.  Sincerity is the perfection of all the other characteristics.
