We cannot be like God and not be angry (Ephesians 4:26-27). In fact, we are commanded in Ephesians 4:26 to be angry and to not sin. Anger is either a destructive or protective energy released in defense of something we love. Jesus – who was without sin – became angry at religious leaders for keeping people away from God (Mark 3:5). Loving, righteous anger is redemptive and zealously seeks to act on behalf of the orphan, the unborn, the exploited, and the lost. However, losing control in our anger is far from being like God. With the help of the Holy Spirit, we can absolutely control what we say and do when we become angry. God calls us to aggressively repent of the sins we do when we are angry, to repent of the things we say and of the destructive chaos that erupts. He longs to fill us with His Spirit that produces the fruit of peace and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).
