Bible Promises in Song |
Listen |
Cease from anger, and
forsake wrath: fret not thyself in
any wise to do evil.
(Psalm 37:8) |
|
The Lord is merciful and gracious,
slow to anger, and plenteous in
mercy. He
will not always chide: neither
will he keep his anger for ever.
He hath not dealt us after our
sins; nor rewarded us according to
our iniquities.
(Psalm 103:8-10) |
|
|
The Lord is gracious, and full of
compassion; slow to anger, and of
great mercy.
The Lord is good to all: and his
tender mercies are over all his
works.
(Psalm 145:8,9)
|
|
Wrath is cruel, and anger is
outrageous; but who is able to
stand before envy?
(Proverbs 27:4) |
|
Be not hasty in thy spirit
to be angry: for anger resteth in
the bosom of fools.
(Ecclesiastes 7:9) |
|
But
I say unto you, That whosoever is
angry with his brother without a
cause shall be in danger of the
judgment: and whosoever shall say
to his brother, Raca, shall be in
danger of the council: but
whosoever shall say, Thou fool,
shall be in danger of hell fire.
Therefore if thou bring thy
gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath
ought against thee;
Leave there thy gift before the
altar, and go thy way; first be
reconciled to thy brother, and
then come and offer thy gift.
(Matthew 5:22-24) |
|
For if ye forgive men their
trespasses, your heavenly Father
will also forgive you:
(Matthew 6:14) |

for Christ's sake hath forgiven
you.

Bible Dictionary Meaning |
The
emotion of instant displeasure on account of something evil
that presents
itself to our view. In itself it is an original
susceptibility of our nature, just
as love is, and is not necessarily sinful. It may, however,
become sinful
when causeless, or excessive, or protracted (Matt. 5:22;
Eph. 4:26; Col. 3:8). As ascribed
to God, it merely denotes his displeasure with sin and with
sinners (Ps. 7:11).7
|
|
|
Meaning of Anger |
1. A
strong emotion; a feeling that is oriented toward some real
or supposed grievance
2: the state of being angry
3: belligerence aroused by a real or supposed wrong
(personified as one of the deadly sins)4
