How sad would it be if you were to speak out in anger; and in the process, hurt your credibility as a christian? A christian who speaks of unconditional love and forgiveness from God our Father.
But that is exactly what can happen.
James 1: 26
"If anyone consideres himself religious and yet does not keep a tight rein on his tongue, he deceives himself and his religion is worthless."
In one's anger watch what you may say or write because your anger does not bring about the righteous life God desires for those who love Him.
Many times we read or hear something we do not agree with. That does not mean to go slander your brothers and sisters. It means to sit back and if that person is sinning, to confront them with a friend and help and love on that brother.
In your anger watch out to not disgust yourself and others by using filthy -unwholesome-language. This will hurt your Father and it will cause a brother who struggles with that to sin.
Learning a lot in my James study. Learning a lot about what the bible specifically says.
