Although Scripture commands us to get mad about some things, anger is a powerful and corruptive force in the human heart. It is no coincidence that there is one exhortation and three prohibitions in these two verses. Anger must be controlled by the Spirit of God and not begin to control us. Follow along as we continue to examine four characteristics of righteous anger.
Yea. That’s right. We’re talking about old guys tonight in church. Isn’t that what an ‘elder’ is? Or maybe there is a something else in this word that occurs 66 times in the New Testament. Tonight we begin a series on biblical eldership. Eldership is not a term used much in Baptist life, but ‘elder’ is a thoroughly biblical term and it is important for us to understand what is means and how biblical authors uses it. This is really a series about church leadership, what Baptists have called ‘pastors’ for the past 100 years. If you are skeptical about whether or not elders are biblical, listen up. If you’re not convinced by the end of this message, then we are reading different Bibles!
Bet you didn’t know that was in the Bible, did ya? Well it is. This message is from our series Walk in Truth from Ephesians 4:26
. Here the Scripture actually commands us to be angry, yet not to sin. So what is righteous anger and when we should express it? Join us for a much needed exhortation from the apostle Paul about becoming like God in righteous indignation.
