You know, when Jesus turned over the tables in the temple, when he threw out the money changes, he was demonstrating righteous anger. But you can bet he knew long before he went in there what he was going to do. It wasn’t a reaction of the spur of the moment. This was God doing the thing that God does.
So anger is not completely forbidden. It’s just framed within the context of self-control, personal management, and ultimately submission to God and to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. If we can achieve all that we are greater than those who rule a city. We are greater than kings.
