ANGER
“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working
with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need. Let no corrupt
word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the
hearers.
Ephesians 4:25-32

ANGERAnd 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.
Ephesians 4:25-32

ANGER
Khaaaaaaaaaaaan!• How many of our movies are centered
around the theme of rage and retribution?• How many of our superheroes draw their
strength or are otherwise enhanced by rage?
• It’s everywhere!• It’s “admirable.”• It’s “natural.”
![Page 8: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ANGER
What is it?• It’s a mistake to equate anger and rage as
one in the same.• As with most giants, Anger is a gateway to
many destructive manifestations.• Anger runs in two modes:– Hot– Cold
• Anger is the act of losing control in response to not having it to begin with.
![Page 9: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ANGER
What is it?• The Bible discusses two types of anger.– One is righteous.– One is sin.
• Today, we try to figure out how to identify which is which.
• Not only do we want to avoid unrighteous anger, but we can in fact sin if we fail to practice righteous anger appropriately.
![Page 10: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ANGER
Righteous Anger• Verse 26: “Be angry, and do not sin.”– Paul confirms that a Christian can (and
should?) be angry *and* needs to be wary of it wandering into sin.
– This is not permission or encouragement to “vent” with some illusion of control.
– In Matthew 5:22, Jesus tells us that if we are so much as angry with our brother, it is equivalent to committing murder.
![Page 11: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
ANGERAnd He found in the temple those who sold oxen and
sheep and doves, and the money changers doing business. When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen,
and poured out the changers’ money and overturned the tables.
John 2:14-15

ANGER
Righteous Anger• Jesus’ two-fold anger:– Profiteering in His temple.– Displacement of devout Gentiles.
• Threefold litmus test for righteous anger:– Over injustice and/or unrighteousness.– It’s NOT about you.– Aims to RESTORE love and compassion.

ANGERAnd when He had looked around at them with anger,
being grieved by the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored as whole as the other.
Mark 3:5

ANGER
Unrighteous Anger• Rooted in self-centeredness.• Flesh-based objectives.• Loss of self-control.• Instead of having a constructive outcome,
it bears fruit of destruction.
![Page 15: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
ANGER
What does it do to me?• “Anger is an acid that does more damage
to the vessel in which it is stored than the person on whom it is poured.”
• The Giant of Anger is particularly efficient in inflicting simultaneous damage to wielder and target(s) alike.
• Anger is an intimacy blocker. If you want to derail any relationship, this is your tool.
![Page 16: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
ANGER
What does it do to me?• Anger breeds more anger in the short run
and is an heirloom to your descendants.• Anger extinguishes trust and joy in a home.• Anger obliterates self esteem.• Anger (further manifested in
unforgiveness) confounds clarity, communication, and blessing from God.
• Anger is “debt spending.” It only deepens the hole.

ANGER

ANGER
How do I kill it?• Do not NURSE your anger.– Paul tells us not to let the sun set on your
anger.– If you sleep with your anger, you own it. Do
not feed or water anger to hang around that long.
– Morning = new day. What did you try to bring with you from the previous day?
![Page 19: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ANGER
How do I kill it?• Do not REHEARSE your anger.– Sarcasm and cutting remarks have become an
American sport.– Whether joking, or expressing trivial anger as a
point of practice, we practice muscles that ought not be very strong in the first place.
![Page 20: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
ANGER
How do I kill it?• Do not DISPERSE your anger.– Do not express unrighteous anger verbally or
physically.– Being able to express your rage with great
eloquence makes it no less a temper tantrum.– Paul tells us in verse 31 to avoid bitterness,
wrath, clamor, evil-speaking, or malice.
![Page 21: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
ANGER
How do I kill it?• DO REVERSE your anger.– Verse 32: with forgiveness and loving kindness
and tenderness.– Romans 12:20-21• “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty,
give him a drink; For in so doing, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”
– Is kindness-to-anger some sort of mystical superweapon of destruction?
![Page 22: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
ANGER
Kill Shot• A prominent Biblical theme is God’s
encouragement to be imitators of His righteousness.
• Responding with kindness to insult is not about getting satisfaction.
• It is a reflection of the umpteen times God has given you another chance to get your act together.
![Page 23: Adapted from the series by David Jeremiah](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062315/568165a5550346895dd88840/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
ANGER
Bonus Slide• What is so serious? Really! What?• Learning to take yourself less seriously is
key to allowing God to mold your heart to be concerned with what gets HIS attention.
• What do you deserve so much?– Remember what you deserved before Christ
and work your way up from there.• By seeking His kingdom first, you’ll find
your pattern of anger soon conforms.
