ANGER 3: OVERCOMING KEYS (1)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Anger

a) Of all the things in the human heart, anger can be one of the most intense, destructive, and unhealthy emotions that we can experience. If not handled in the proper way, it can have drastic life-changing consequences.

b) Anger may be caused by pressures of work, family or even from being the innocent victim of another’s wrong-doing.  Left unresolved, anger creates an intense desire to destroy something.

c) Regardless of the reason for anger, the Bible has answers on what causes anger, either good (righteous) or bad (unrighteous) anger and how we should deal with it as Christians.

2. Overcoming Keys (Wisdom and Patience)

Proverbs 14:16,17 
A wise man feareth, and departeth from evil: but the fool rageth, and is confident. He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.

Proverbs 14:29 
Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly.

Proverbs 19:11 
Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense. 


The End ...
