“In your anger do not sin: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.”Ephesians 4:26–27
Be Angry, Sin Not
Anger isn’t always sin. What you do with it might be. A biblical guide to anger, temper, grudges and righteous fire.
Some of us explode: the yelling, the slammed doors, the text we regret. Some of us implode: we smile, say “it’s fine,” and let it rot into bitterness for years. Both hurt. Scripture doesn’t say “never be angry.” God gets angry at injustice; Jesus flipped tables. It says be angry and don’t sin. Learn the difference between righteous anger and the rotten kind, see what anger did to Cain, Moses and Jonah, and build a cool-down plan that works in the moment.
