Integrity is defined as steadfast adherence to a moral code. Integrity means that you live by your conviction; it is practicing what you preach. Integrity comes from the word integral, which means whole or complete. Integrity is wholeness. Integrity is personality integrated in public or in private. Integrity cannot be faked. A man of integrity will do the right thing at all times.

In a world of compromise, integrity is a precious commodity. Integrity should be a key trait of a committed follower of Christ. It shows that we are not living for ourselves, but for God. As Martin Luther used to say, the essence of the Christian life is to live one’s life, “Coram Deo” – which literally means, “before the face of God.”

A synonym to the word integrity is righteousness. “The primary basic meaning of the word, ‘righteousness’ has to do with behaviour – it means doing what is right or doing the right thing” – R.C Sproul. Righteousness is right-ness: it’s choosing right over wrong. As Christians we are called to be motivated to do what is right. But to do what is right is not always pleasurable, desirable, enjoyable or profitable, and it may have a very heavy price tag.

Integrity (in technical, physics, chemistry, scientific use) also implies "consistent" (such as can be said of behavior or of purity of substance).
