Anger leads to many conflicts and arguments.Anger that is self-centered ,prideful and self-willed is dangerous.If allowed to continue unchecked ,it will consume you, lead to bitterness and hatred and even violence and it obliterates compassion ,love and forgiveness.I see a lot of this kind of anger all the time ,even on face book !
Jesus said blessed are the peacemakers not those who stir up strife and constant quarrelling ! Anger in marriages has become a serious problem for many.
Many get angry over little petty issues ! Many are full of resentment over something that happened years ago.
Proverbs 15:18'A wrathful man stirreth up strife:but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.' Basically it says that a hot-tempered person starts fights and a cool-tempered person stops them.There are a lot of angry people in this world and on face book.When anger gets control you lose self-control.
Ecclesiastes 7:9'Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry:for anger rests in the bosom of fools.'
Prov.22:24-25'Make no friendship with an angry man and with a furious man thou shall not go.Lest thou LEARN HIS WAYS ,AND GET A SNARE TO THY SOUL."
Your hot-headed temper will master you if you do not deal with it as a real sin that causes a lot of heartache in your relationships.Temper tantrums are unproductive but they are destructive.One man has said,'Anger is the noise of the soul,the unseen irritant of the heart,the restless invader of silence.'
So treat anger as something very harmful to your walk with God and get rid of it.Sinful anger will rob you of your peace with God and others.
Ephesians 4:31'Let all bitterness ,and wrath,and anger and clamour,and evil speaking ,be put away from you with all malice.' You must not tolerate sinful anger in your life !
LASTLY-The destructive effects of anger are not limited to those stung by outbursts of angry words and actions.Anger's destruction is inward also.In fact, terrible as the outward effects are,the inward effects on the angry person himself are worse.An angry person destroys himself.
