Matthew 5 v 21 – 26
"You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, 'Do not murder, and anyone
who murders will be subject to judgment.' But I tell you that anyone who is angry
with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother,
'Raca,' is answerable to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, 'You fool!' will be in
danger of the fire of hell.
"Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your
brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go
and be reconciled to your brother; then come and offer your gift.
"Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while
you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge
may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. I tell you the
truth, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.

going to relate to, well you guys. But as I read over the
room who can seriously tell me that they have never been angry

Deuteronomy 4 v 25
After you have had children and grandchildren and have lived in the land a long time
—if you then become corrupt and make any kind of idol, doing evil in the eyes of the
LORD your God and provoking him to anger
Deuteronomy 6 v 15
for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a jealous God and his anger will burn
against you, and he will destroy you from the face of the land.
Ephesians 4 v 26 (Pt. 1)
"In your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.
It’s how you act when you become angry. It’s ok to be angry,
just don’t in your anger sin. Also the second part of that
scripture says:
Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.
Don’t let the day finish without going and sorting out any sort of
Now back in the days of the Old Testament people used to bring
because Jesus came and died on the cross for our sins, but we do
“If you go to God to ask for forgiveness then realise that there is
and sort that out before you ask God to forgive you.” I know
someone for what they did, and at that point the last thing you
want to tell you guys of a story of a time, last year actually, that
I was really angry with someone, I mean like so angry I felt like
even to a point that it’s like blatantly obvious that I’m ignoring
them. Anyway I was ignoring this person and pretending that
they weren’t in the room and just reading my bible, and then
“In your anger do not sin": Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry.”
And at that time that was the last thing I wanted to hear, I didn’t
want to go talk with the person who made me feel like I was
because of what I had done I had really hurt the other person, in
person, I did eventually and it was all sorted out but it didn’t
stop the hurt that I had caused because I had let anger get the
“My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak
and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that
God desires.”
Our anger often fails to please God, Its how we are acting when
“Anyone who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has
eternal life in him.”
Just because you’re angry with your brother, or sister, doesn’t
mean that you hate them, I know that. But the part of the
scripture that really stood out to me was the second part of the
scripture:
“and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him”
murderer. That’s pretty scary don’t you think that God sees us in
only 10% of that iceberg is popping out of the water and 90% is
under the water. Anger is like that 10% of the iceberg sticking
that I felt like I was about to explode and made me not want to
talk to the person. Perhaps when you get angry try thinking
and you might not even realise it’s actually anger. So I’m just
hurt them, maybe you’re angry with them for some reason, or
NOW. Don’t wait. Don’t say oh I’ll just wait till they come to
me, they might not even know that they hurt you. It’s ok to be
