"An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot‑tempered one commits many sins." (Proverbs 29.22)
Anger is a reaction! Other Scripture tells us to "be angry and sin not". It is not a sin to get angry, but the test is in our reaction. If we get our bearings and react properly and positively, then we can avoid a wrong response. The person who abandons themselves to their anger, and reacts hastily to every offense, real or imagined, will cause trouble for themselves and others. It is terribly important to react to offenses in a godly manner. Anger repressed only leads to bitterness and depression, and is a self-inflicted wound. A hot tempered and angry man is a plague on himself and those around him. Better to look for a creative, constructive response to an offense. Of course the other defensive action is to forgive the offender. Pretty radical response, right!
