WHO IS A WISE MAN?

Can the fig tree, my brethren, bear 
olive berries? either a vine, figs? 
so can no fountain both yield salt 
water and fresh. Who is a wise man 
and endued with knowledge among 
you? let him shew out of a good 
conversation his works with 
meekness of wisdom.  But if ye 
have bitter envying and strife in 
your hearts, glory not, and lie not 
against the truth. This wisdom 
descendeth not from above, 
but is earthly, sensual, devilish.
For where envying and strife is, 
there is confusion and every evil 
work  But the wisdom that is from 
above is first pure, then peaceable, 
gentle, and easy to be intreated, full 
of mercy and good fruits, without 
partiality, and without hypocrisy. 
And the fruit of righteousness is 
sown in peace of them that 
make peace.

James 3:13-18
