  2. ANGER Presented By: Pastor Nicolas Ellen

  3. Definition of Anger • Disposition of the mind that entertains antagonism towards another individual, manifesting itself in various actions. • (Matthew 5:21-22; Genesis 4:1-8, John 2:12-17, Mark 3:5)

  4. God’s Perspective on Anger • Anger is an attitude resulting in action (Proverbs.14:17,29,15:18,16:32,19:19,22:24-25,) Man’s Perspective on Anger • Anger is an emotion that is neutral

  5. Types of Anger • Godly/Righteous Indignation - To be troubled or disgusted in attitude or action as a result of someone disgracing God or disregarding His Holy Laws (John 2:12-17; Ephesians 4:26-27, Mark 3:5,10:14,Exodus 32:1-30,Jeremiah 15:17, Nehemiah 5:1-13, 2Kings 13:14-19)

  6. Worldly/Anger of Man – to have ungodly attitudes and actions as a result of some perceived need, desire, or personal preference /standard not being met by someone or being offended by someone (I Samuel 18:6-8, 20:24-34; James 1:19-20,4:1-2; Ephesians 4:31-32, Numbers 20:1-13,)

  7. Key Point: Godly Anger or Righteous Indignation is the exception to the rule. Generally, when people are angry it has nothing to do with someone disgracing God or disregarding His Holy Laws. Therefore, most of the time when people are angry it is generally worldly/anger of man. They received something that they did not want or they did not receive what they wanted. As a result, ungodly attitudes and actions begin to manifest. Instead of being thankful to God for how he will use the situation or accepting what God has allowed in the situation they become negative and ungodly in thoughts, words, actions ,and relational patterns.

  8. Issues that lead to Worldly/ Anger of Man • Misplaced Dependency (depend on people, place, things, or events to provide what only God provides) (I John 2:15-17, Jeremiah 17:5-6) • Unrealistic Expectations (expecting things that are beyond the scope of possibility)

  9. Untrained in Handling Disappointments (not accepting the fallibility of people, places, things and events) (Proverbs 13:12, Genesis 4:1-8) • Not Accepting powerlessness over people, places, outcomes of events (resisting the fact that you were not designed to control people and outcome of events) (Numbers 20:1-13,Eccl. 9: 1-2; Eccl. 7:13-14)

  10. Fear (Proverbs 29:25) • Pride (I Sam. 18:6-8) • Ignorance to Truth (Proverbs19:2-3) • Living by the Flesh (Galatians 5:17, 19-21) • Inferiority Complex (consumed with seeing yourself as less than others) (I Sam. 18:6-8)
