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) How does Love relate to anger? It's in the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13:5, NIV. "It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs."
b) Don't fight back when wronged. It's in the Bible, I Peter 3:9, TLB "Don't repay evil for evil. Don't snap back at those who say unkind things about you. Instead, pray for God's help for them, for we are to be kind to others, and God will bless us for it."
c) Anger produces strife. It's in the Bible, Proverbs 30:33, NIV. "For as churning the milk produces butter, and as twisting the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife."
d) How should we react to someone's anger? It's in the Bible, Proverbs 15:1, NKJV. "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger"
e) Why do we forgive, rather than continue to be angry? Because God forgave us. It's in the Bible, Ephesians 4:30-32, NKJV. " And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you."
