True wisdom is not measured by knowledge or words but by the way we live, as demonstrated in James’ challenge: “Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct, let him show his works in the meekness of wisdom.” This wisdom from above is pure, peaceable, gentle, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial, and sincere—a stark contrast to the bitterness and selfish ambition of earthly, demonic wisdom that leads nowhere but destruction.
