This document discusses anger and how to properly manage it. It begins by defining different types of anger: rage, wrath, resentment, and indignation. Rage, wrath, and resentment are sinful forms of anger that should be avoided, while indignation is a righteous anger aimed at injustice. The document provides biblical examples of each type and counsels expressing anger constructively rather than repressing or suppressing it. Readers are encouraged to reflect before responding in anger and to restrain their remarks. The goal is to manage anger in a way that does not hinder one's Christian witness.

7. JAMES 1:19-20
19 My dear brothers and sisters, take note of
this: Everyone should be quick to listen,
slow to speak and slow to become angry,
20 because human anger does not produce the
righteousness that God desires.

8. COLOSSIANS 3:8
But now put these things out of your life: anger,
losing your temper, doing or saying things to
hurt others, and saying shameful things.

9. ECCLESIASTES 7:9

because anger is foolish.

10. Anger is something we can't avoid,
but it's something
we can learn to control.

13. Can you be ANGRY and not sin?

14. Four faces of anger

explosive-uncontrolled anger.
Proverbs 29:22
A hot tempered man starts fights and
gets into all kinds of trouble."

15. Four faces of anger
2. WRATH
used to describe an anger that wants revenge,
that desires to retaliate, that wants to return
the hurt or injustice the offender has caused
them.
Luke 6:11,
"But they (the Pharisees) were furious, (at Jesus) and
began to plot with each other what they might do to
Jesus.”

16. It's an anger that holds a grudge. It's an
"eye for an eye," or a "tooth for a tooth,”.
A wrathful anger is always accompanied
by an unforgiving spirit.
Wrath is a sinful anger that
must be condemned.

17. Four faces of anger
3. RESENTMENT
is used to describe an anger that stems
from a grievance
Proverbs 18:19,
"It is harder to win back the friendship of an
offended brother than to capture a fortified
city. His anger shuts you out like iron bars.”

18. It is an anger that the person suppresses
over a long period of time and allows to
quietly smolder down inside them.

19. Luke 15:28-30
28 “The older brother was angry and wouldn’t
go in. His father came out and begged him,
29 but he replied, ‘All these years I’ve slaved for
you and never once refused to do a single thing
you told me to. And in all that time you never
gave me even one young goat for a feast with
my friends.
30 Yet when this son of yours comes back after
squandering your money on prostitutes,
you celebrate by killing the fattened calf!’

20. Resentment anger damages the
human personality and destroys
relationships with others.
Resentment is a stubborn anger that must
be conquered.

21. Four faces of anger
4. Indignation
used to describe an anger that rises up in us as a
result of seeing someone or something of
importance to us being mistreated or suffering
an injustice.

22. It's a healthy anger that is aimed at the
problem and not the person. It's an anger
for the right reason and expressed in the
right way. It's a controlled anger that is
meant to be corrective and constructive.
Indignation anger is the
kind Jesus displayed.

23. Mark 3: 1-6,NLT
1 Jesus went into the synagogue again and
noticed a man with a deformed hand.
2 Since it was the Sabbath, Jesus’ enemies
watched him closely. If he healed the man’s
hand, they planned to accuse him of working on
the Sabbath.
3 Jesus said to the man with the deformed
hand, “Come and stand in front of everyone.”

24. 4 Then he turned to his critics and asked,
“Does the law permit good deeds on the
Sabbath, or is it a day for doing evil? Is this a
day to save life or to destroy it?” But they
wouldn’t answer him.
5 He looked around at them angrily and was
deeply saddened by their hard hearts. Then he
said to the man, “Hold out your hand.” So the
man held out his hand, and it was restored! 6 At
once the Pharisees went away and
met with the supporters of Herod to plot
how to kill Jesus.

25. How Jesus expressed His anger
-He did not explode in a rage.
-He did not call down fire from heaven on them
in wrath.
-He did not allow resentment anger to smolder
down inside Him.
-He didn't suppress His anger.

26. But Jesus chose to channel His anger
into carefully chosen words of response
that He released in a controlled way.
He didn't respond in a way that would
allow them to fight back.

27. • Indignation anger is the only type of anger that
Scripture allows.
• Anger that comes as a result of righteous indignation
must be cultivated, because it is a constructive anger
that God does not condemn.
• Indignation is a sanctified anger that must be
channeled.

28. Matthew 21:12-13
Jesus entered the temple courts and drove
out all who were buying and selling there.
He overturned the tables of the money
changers and the benches of those selling
doves.
13 “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My
house will be called a house of prayer,’
but you are making it ‘a den of robbers.

anger
1. REPRESS IT (SPEW)

34. Two wrong ways people handle
anger
2. SUPPRESS IT (STEW)
• In suppressing anger, we are very much aware that we
are angry, but for one reason or other, we choose to
stifle expressing it and simply hold it inside of us.
• We think we are neutralizing our feelings of anger,
but actually we silently nurture it within and allow it to
simmer on the back burner of our mind.

35. • Suppressed anger is usually drained off on a
less threatening, unsuspecting person,
usually that person is another family member.
• Repressing and suppressing anger is not the
best way to deal with anger.

36. Right way to handle anger
EXPRESS IT
Expressing anger can be an alright thing to do
providing it is released in the correct way, and
that means it's under control and is corrective
or constructive, never destructive.

37. Proverbs 16:23 (GNT)
Intelligent people think before they speak;
what they say is then more persuasive.

38. • Knowing when and how to release anger
is important.
• Sensitivity is a trait that an angry person
needs to hold on to

39. Three things to remember in expressing anger.
1. Remember the results of an unbridled anger.
2. Reflect before responding.
3. Restrain you remarks.

40. Proverbs 21:23, (GNT)
"If you want to stay out of trouble,
be careful what you say.”

eat them.
God wants us free from anger that would
hinder our Christian testimony.
