Tiago 1:8 Meaning and Commentary

James 1:8

A double minded man
A man of two souls, or of a double heart, that speaks and asks with an heart, and an heart, as in ( Psalms 12:2 ) who halts between two opinions, and is at an uncertainty what to do or say, and is undetermined what to ask for; or who is not sincere and upright in his requests, who asks for one thing, and means another, and asks amiss, and with an ill design; does not call upon God in truth, and in the sincerity of his soul; draws nigh to him with his mouth, and honours him with his lips, but his heart is far from him. Such an one is

unstable in all his ways;
he is confused in his mind; restless in his thoughts, unsettled in his designs and intentions; inconstant in his petitions; uncertain in his notions and opinion of things; and very variable in his actions, and especially in matters of religion; he is always changing, and never at a point, but at a continual uncertainty, both in a way of thinking and doing: he never continues long either in an opinion, or in a practice, but is ever shifting and moving.

Tiago 1:8 In-Context

6 Peça-a, porém, com fé, não duvidando; pois aquele que duvida é semelhante � onda do mar, que é sublevada e agitada pelo vento.
7 Não pense tal homem que receberá do Senhor alguma coisa,
8 homem vacilante que é, e inconstante em todos os seus caminhos.
9 Mas o irmão de condição humilde glorie-se na sua exaltação,
10 e o rico no seu abatimento; porque ele passará como a flor da erva.
