ANGER (1)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Bible Topic

a) To learn what the Bible has to say on a variety of topics affecting our everyday lives, we may find what we are looking for here.

2. Anger

a) A short-tempered man is a fool. It's in the Bible, Ecclesiastes 7:9, TLB. "Don't be quick-tempered—that is being a fool." It's in the Bible, Proverbs 19:11, TLB. "A wise man restrains his anger and overlooks insults. This is to his credit." It's in the Bible, Proverbs 16:32, TLB "It is better to be slow-tempered than famous; it is better to have self-control than to control an army."

b) Get over anger quickly. It's in the Bible, Ephesians 4:26-27, TLB. "If you are angry, don't sin by nursing your grudge. Don't let the sun go down with you still angry—get over it quickly; For when you are angry you give a mighty foothold to the devil."

c) What does Jesus warn about anger? It's in the Bible, Matthew 5:22, NKJV. " But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment. And whoever says to his brother, ‘Raca!’ shall be in danger of the council. But whoever says, ‘You fool!’ shall be in danger of hell fire."

d) How does God relate to anger? It's in the Bible, Psalm 103:8, NKJV "The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy."


The End ...
