Is Your Anger Right or Wrong?

We need to draw a clear distinction between the righteous anger that Paul is commanding and the sinful anger he is forbidding. We must also understand that a righteous anger can descend into sinful actions if we are not careful. That is why this passage includes a means of protection.

The devil is looking for a place to attack the church through the sinful anger of its members. If we don’t deal with our anger in the biblical way, the devil comes right on in through the church door. That ought to motivate us to righteous anger, and righteous action.
