Welcome to Good Burger selfie
and talks.
2
00:00:15,600 –> 00:00:19,300
I’m Levi and I’m Chris and I’m
Brian, thank you for joining us
3
00:00:19,300 –> 00:00:21,900
this week.
On this podcast, we select one
4
00:00:21,900 –> 00:00:26,400
taco week to help us get the
Bible in our daily news feed.
5
00:00:26,500 –> 00:00:29,300
We post a new episode of the
start of each week with a short
6
00:00:29,300 –> 00:00:31,400
intro before.
Hand to kind of set the stage
7
00:00:31,400 –> 00:00:33,600
for the talk.
You’re about to listen to and
8
00:00:33,600 –> 00:00:36,300
now let’s talk more about this
week’s talk.
9
00:00:50,800 –> 00:00:53,300
Welcome to the good.
Chris Italian talks podcast,
10
00:00:53,700 –> 00:00:57,700
this is brother Brian.
This week’s talk is a Class by
11
00:00:57,700 –> 00:01:02,100
Brother John Evans.
That was given in 2016 at the
12
00:01:02,100 –> 00:01:07,700
teacher, Gully, Ecclesia The
class is called a soft answer
13
00:01:07,900 –> 00:01:11,400
turns away wrath.
And this is part.
14
00:01:11,400 –> 00:01:16,000
One of a two class series all
about anger.
15
00:01:17,600 –> 00:01:21,800
This was not a recommendation.
This was actually a series that
16
00:01:21,800 –> 00:01:27,900
I was looking at myself because
I feel like I struggle with
17
00:01:27,900 –> 00:01:32,300
having an anger problem.
And I found it to be not only
18
00:01:32,300 –> 00:01:37,700
helpful to to myself, but good
enough that I felt the community
19
00:01:37,700 –> 00:01:42,400
worldwide would benefit from
hearing these classes brother.
20
00:01:42,400 –> 00:01:48,600
John looks at how this
tumultuous emotion has been used
21
00:01:48,600 –> 00:01:54,200
in a biblical sense, both by God
and man and what are the key
22
00:01:54,200 –> 00:01:56,400
lessons that we can take away
and I found that the more and
23
00:01:56,408 –> 00:01:59,200
more instances he kept going
into as like oh man I forgot
24
00:01:59,200 –> 00:02:02,100
like yeah that’s a great story
that deals with anger and that’s
25
00:02:02,100 –> 00:02:03,700
a great story that deals with
anger.
26
00:02:05,000 –> 00:02:08,199
One of the points that I
appreciate, was he, he makes
27
00:02:08,199 –> 00:02:14,400
clear anger is not a sin. and
anger in and of itself is not
28
00:02:14,400 –> 00:02:20,500
necessarily a problem, but the
challenge for us, is preventing
29
00:02:20,500 –> 00:02:29,300
it from quickly becoming Wrath
or something worse, he reminds
30
00:02:29,300 –> 00:02:34,700
us that Paul cautioned in
Ephesians 4, be angry and sin.
31
00:02:34,700 –> 00:02:38,200
Not.
So that’s that’s our struggle to
32
00:02:39,000 –> 00:02:43,200
allow ourselves to be angry
about things but have the mind
33
00:02:43,200 –> 00:02:47,700
of the spirit and not just react
with the mind of the Flesh.
34
00:02:48,800 –> 00:02:52,700
And one of my favorite take away
lines that I think brother, John
35
00:02:52,700 –> 00:02:59,800
for, is he He says anger is only
one letter away from danger.
36
00:03:00,700 –> 00:03:06,500
And such a good reminder that
like, you know, if we ignore the
37
00:03:06,500 –> 00:03:10,700
warning signs, if we ignore the
cues that our bodies giving us,
38
00:03:10,700 –> 00:03:15,000
we very quickly can move from
being angry into being in a
39
00:03:15,000 –> 00:03:17,900
dangerous situation, with our
words, with our actions.
40
00:03:17,900 –> 00:03:23,800
So I found that between the two
classes, there’s just lots of
41
00:03:23,800 –> 00:03:28,800
great practical gems regarding
dealing with anger within our
42
00:03:28,800 –> 00:03:32,300
families anger.
With our young children
43
00:03:32,700 –> 00:03:36,700
frustration within our colleges
and a really think would benefit
44
00:03:36,900 –> 00:03:41,100
everyone to hear how this can be
approached from a biblical
45
00:03:41,100 –> 00:03:48,300
sense. so, as always, We hope
this strengthens your faith and
46
00:03:48,300 –> 00:03:50,400
brightens your day.
Brother.
47
00:03:50,400 –> 00:03:56,100
John Evans, a soft answer turns
away wrath, thank you for the
48
00:03:56,100 –> 00:03:58,600
German good evening.
My brother and sisters in young
49
00:03:58,600 –> 00:04:01,000
people.
It’s wonderful to have an
50
00:04:01,000 –> 00:04:03,500
opportunities and it during the
middle of a busy week to stop
51
00:04:03,500 –> 00:04:05,800
and to consider the word of God.
It’s what we do every Wednesday
52
00:04:05,800 –> 00:04:10,400
night and we have a opportunity
to open the word and to let the
53
00:04:10,400 –> 00:04:13,900
word speak to us.
And the challenge of course, of
54
00:04:13,900 –> 00:04:17,800
any Bible study is to see how do
we make that apply to ourselves.
55
00:04:18,200 –> 00:04:20,399
It can be very interesting, it
can be very academically
56
00:04:20,399 –> 00:04:23,500
challenging but of course if
it’s not going to affect us in
57
00:04:23,500 –> 00:04:27,300
our daily life then it’s just
those two things academic or
58
00:04:27,300 –> 00:04:30,600
interesting, the word of God of
course has the power to change
59
00:04:30,600 –> 00:04:35,000
the inner man as we know and our
aim is to look at tonight.
60
00:04:35,900 –> 00:04:39,400
An interesting subject that of a
soft answer turns away wrath.
61
00:04:39,400 –> 00:04:42,300
That’s our overall title.
What really going to look
62
00:04:42,500 –> 00:04:46,300
Tonight is the challenge that we
Face a lot of in this world
63
00:04:46,300 –> 00:04:49,600
today around about us and the
challenge for ourselves of being
64
00:04:49,600 –> 00:04:52,900
angry about things.
We live in an evil world.
65
00:04:52,900 –> 00:04:55,600
I don’t need to tell you that,
we look at the news, we see
66
00:04:55,600 –> 00:04:57,300
what’s happening in the world
around about us.
67
00:04:57,600 –> 00:05:00,200
We see the challenges in the
occlusal environment that we
68
00:05:00,200 –> 00:05:02,200
dwell in.
We seem to be facing an
69
00:05:02,200 –> 00:05:05,600
avalanche of decline in the
world outside, people
70
00:05:05,600 –> 00:05:09,400
challenging everything that’s
been ever conceived to be holy
71
00:05:09,400 –> 00:05:12,200
or righteous as God except for
that his word, the Bible.
72
00:05:14,400 –> 00:05:17,500
Society calls.
Evil good and good evil.
73
00:05:18,700 –> 00:05:20,200
And we know that means we’re in
the time of the end.
74
00:05:20,200 –> 00:05:22,900
And of course, we’ve seen Russia
just recently move itself into
75
00:05:22,900 –> 00:05:25,600
the, into the Middle East
Theater, which is very exciting
76
00:05:25,600 –> 00:05:27,300
for us.
As we witness the current
77
00:05:27,300 –> 00:05:29,800
events.
We see men are artists who are
78
00:05:29,800 –> 00:05:32,600
covered us.
An evil man who had Godless and
79
00:05:32,600 –> 00:05:34,200
all they were interested in is
themselves.
80
00:05:35,600 –> 00:05:38,300
And of course, we recognize that
as a disciple and follower of
81
00:05:38,300 –> 00:05:40,500
Christ, that’s not the way, we
should conduct ourselves in our
82
00:05:40,500 –> 00:05:43,400
daily life and I believe,
brother and sisters were not
83
00:05:43,400 –> 00:05:45,800
participating in the Covetous
evil things that are happening
84
00:05:45,800 –> 00:05:48,800
in the world around about us.
We tend to stand aside from that
85
00:05:48,800 –> 00:05:51,400
and say, no, that’s not
something we should be involved
86
00:05:51,400 –> 00:05:54,600
in.
But we live in a very angry
87
00:05:54,600 –> 00:05:57,600
world, you know, a common term,
you’ll hear is that people have
88
00:05:57,600 –> 00:05:59,100
short fuses.
What’s that mean?
89
00:05:59,100 –> 00:06:02,000
It means doesn’t take much in
the explode, people in the
90
00:06:02,000 –> 00:06:03,900
workplace people in the school
place.
91
00:06:05,100 –> 00:06:08,900
People just seem to have a lot
of anger, you know, the term
92
00:06:08,900 –> 00:06:11,300
today which wasn’t around
probably 40 years ago called
93
00:06:11,300 –> 00:06:13,900
road rage 40 years ago.
They probably weren’t enough
94
00:06:13,900 –> 00:06:16,200
cars going up and down the road
out there for anyone to get
95
00:06:16,200 –> 00:06:19,200
cross with each other.
And now there’s a term now and
96
00:06:19,200 –> 00:06:20,600
is road rage.
What is it?
97
00:06:21,300 –> 00:06:24,400
It’s really just anger and
people unable to contain their
98
00:06:24,400 –> 00:06:27,300
anger who then beat their horns.
Jump out of cars will do worse
99
00:06:27,300 –> 00:06:30,400
things and that to each other.
It’s a world we live in where
100
00:06:30,400 –> 00:06:33,000
anger is seen.
Before us all the time, we see
101
00:06:33,000 –> 00:06:35,700
it in our political leaders,
they slog it out in Parliament.
102
00:06:36,000 –> 00:06:40,100
We see it in the things that we
witness around about us and I
103
00:06:40,108 –> 00:06:42,300
think all of us would say is
Brethren sisters of our law.
104
00:06:42,300 –> 00:06:44,100
That that’s not the way we ought
to behave.
105
00:06:45,300 –> 00:06:48,300
Yet of all the issues that
challenges perhaps his Brethren
106
00:06:48,300 –> 00:06:52,100
and sisters.
And sometimes we graduate
107
00:06:52,100 –> 00:06:52,800
things.
Don’t we say?
108
00:06:52,800 –> 00:06:53,900
Well, this is a really bad
thing.
109
00:06:53,900 –> 00:06:56,800
We don’t want to be involved in
this murders or robberies or
110
00:06:56,800 –> 00:07:00,400
theft.
How do we graduate our
111
00:07:00,400 –> 00:07:04,000
relationship with each other and
our ability to get very angry
112
00:07:04,000 –> 00:07:06,000
with each other, perhaps we can
think.
113
00:07:06,000 –> 00:07:08,200
Well, that’s not so bad.
Well what we’d like to do
114
00:07:08,200 –> 00:07:10,800
tonight is to look at the
perspective, our heavenly father
115
00:07:10,800 –> 00:07:13,500
and say, is that bad or not?
Because I think that’s one of
116
00:07:13,508 –> 00:07:16,600
the great challenges for all of
us in these last days how we
117
00:07:16,600 –> 00:07:20,800
interact with each other and how
we let that affect us, So what
118
00:07:20,800 –> 00:07:23,400
we want to look at tonight is is
probably four points.
119
00:07:23,400 –> 00:07:24,700
We want to look at what anger
is.
120
00:07:25,800 –> 00:07:27,500
We want to say, where does it
come from?
121
00:07:28,000 –> 00:07:29,700
What is this Spirit of being
angry?
122
00:07:29,700 –> 00:07:31,300
Then man.
Exhibits.
123
00:07:31,700 –> 00:07:34,900
How does God view, anger?
And then we look at some
124
00:07:34,900 –> 00:07:39,000
scriptural examples of bad anger
and surprisingly good anger.
125
00:07:39,500 –> 00:07:41,800
Am I find that surprising but
bear with us because you’re
126
00:07:41,808 –> 00:07:44,700
going to see some examples where
anger is used very positively in
127
00:07:44,700 –> 00:07:47,900
the scripture.
So if we went to look up about
128
00:07:47,900 –> 00:07:49,400
anger, what will we do?
We grab a dictionary
129
00:07:49,400 –> 00:07:51,900
off-the-shelf, we look up the
word anger, and if we picked up
130
00:07:51,900 –> 00:07:53,600
an order, a dictionary would
read this.
131
00:07:54,000 –> 00:07:56,300
It’s a feeling of great
annoyance or antagonism as a
132
00:07:56,300 –> 00:08:00,600
result of some real, or supposed
grievance, Rage or Roth.
133
00:08:01,000 –> 00:08:02,500
That’s your standard English
dictionary.
134
00:08:02,900 –> 00:08:04,900
Let’s pull off a Bible.
Victory off a shelf though.
135
00:08:04,900 –> 00:08:07,700
And say what’s the word anger
got to do with, with the
136
00:08:07,700 –> 00:08:09,800
scriptures.
And we read in the Old
137
00:08:09,800 –> 00:08:12,600
Testament, the translation of
several Hebrew words, especially
138
00:08:12,600 –> 00:08:15,000
that of off.
Literally means the nostril or
139
00:08:15,000 –> 00:08:17,300
the countenance.
When we get to the New
140
00:08:17,300 –> 00:08:20,200
Testament, the word only occurs
four times in the New Testament.
141
00:08:20,200 –> 00:08:23,900
That’s the word anger.
But it’s place is taken by the
142
00:08:23,907 –> 00:08:26,500
word Roth, which we see on
multiple occasions in the New
143
00:08:26,500 –> 00:08:29,900
Testament.
So we’ve got the opportunity to
144
00:08:29,900 –> 00:08:32,100
open God’s word and see him
talking about anger.
145
00:08:33,500 –> 00:08:36,400
And to see how it affects our
Brethren and sisters, those who
146
00:08:36,400 –> 00:08:39,600
have gone before us, and the way
that they were affected by this
147
00:08:39,600 –> 00:08:42,500
emotion of anger.
Well, the first question was
148
00:08:42,500 –> 00:08:44,100
where does human anger come
from?
149
00:08:45,100 –> 00:08:46,900
What we’re going to do tonight
because we look at a lot of
150
00:08:46,900 –> 00:08:50,400
scripture and pick out bits and
pieces we go what I’d like to do
151
00:08:50,400 –> 00:08:53,800
is to say be nice if we could
get this thing to work.
152
00:08:58,200 –> 00:09:02,800
From the bottom.
How about James you can we make
153
00:09:02,800 –> 00:09:06,200
this work?
Because we’ve got to get through
154
00:09:06,200 –> 00:09:08,500
a fair bit of.
Here we go.
155
00:09:12,900 –> 00:09:15,900
Here we go.
Don’t ever panic and whatever
156
00:09:15,900 –> 00:09:16,800
you do.
Don’t get angry.
157
00:09:18,800 –> 00:09:27,600
Okay, I’m not getting angry.
Okay, James, thank you.
158
00:09:28,000 –> 00:09:29,400
I’ll just get James to have a
look at that for us.
159
00:09:29,400 –> 00:09:32,300
Let’s turn up in our Bible,
Matthew 15:19.
160
00:09:32,600 –> 00:09:34,600
What we’re going to do is use
PowerPoint to get through a lot
161
00:09:34,600 –> 00:09:43,700
of quotes tonight but Matthew
15:19 and we know this quiet
162
00:09:43,700 –> 00:09:46,100
very well.
Thank you very much, James.
163
00:09:46,500 –> 00:09:49,400
Lucky, no one got angry.
Good, Matthew 15 verse 19.
164
00:09:49,400 –> 00:09:51,200
What do we read for out of the
heart?
165
00:09:51,200 –> 00:09:53,400
Proceed evil.
Thoughts murders adulteries,
166
00:09:53,400 –> 00:09:56,200
fornications thefts, false
witness, Nice to meet you.
167
00:09:56,300 –> 00:09:58,600
Where’s that all come from?
Well, of course we know the Lord
168
00:09:58,600 –> 00:10:01,500
tells us it comes from with a
man within a man comes out of
169
00:10:01,500 –> 00:10:03,900
his heart.
What else do we know from
170
00:10:03,900 –> 00:10:07,000
scripture?
Well, we know that the heart of
171
00:10:07,000 –> 00:10:10,200
man is deceitful, Jeremiah 17
verse 9.
172
00:10:10,500 –> 00:10:12,500
You may want to take notes.
If you want to copy afterwards
173
00:10:12,500 –> 00:10:15,600
please come and see me.
The heart is deceitful above all
174
00:10:15,600 –> 00:10:18,300
things, and desperately wicked,
who can know it.
175
00:10:18,300 –> 00:10:20,700
Now, we know these quotes, we
put them up at a lecture.
176
00:10:20,700 –> 00:10:22,900
When we talked new interested
friends about the fact that,
177
00:10:23,000 –> 00:10:28,800
yep, man is not in only good,
but rather, he actually deviates
178
00:10:28,800 –> 00:10:32,600
or Falls over towards sin.
Those quotes prove that for us
179
00:10:32,900 –> 00:10:35,500
so anger comes from within us,
it’s an emotion.
180
00:10:37,000 –> 00:10:40,500
How do we let it affect us and
what do we know about, God, and
181
00:10:40,500 –> 00:10:43,700
anger?
Well, we know God’s holy we know
182
00:10:43,700 –> 00:10:50,300
that he can’t look upon sin.
But we also know, when we come
183
00:10:50,300 –> 00:10:54,500
back to Exodus 34:6, we find a
lot out about his character,
184
00:10:54,500 –> 00:10:56,200
don’t we?
And we look at this with a young
185
00:10:56,200 –> 00:10:57,700
people.
We talked about the character of
186
00:10:57,700 –> 00:11:01,700
Yahweh and we find it described
for us because he says to Moses.
187
00:11:01,700 –> 00:11:05,600
This is my character and he said
he’s gracious.
188
00:11:05,600 –> 00:11:08,600
Merciful long-suffering abundant
in goodness and Truth.
189
00:11:09,000 –> 00:11:12,000
However he keeps Mercy for
thousands forgiving iniquity,
190
00:11:12,000 –> 00:11:14,700
transgression and sin but will
by no means clear.
191
00:11:14,700 –> 00:11:17,300
The guilty visiting the iniquity
of the father’s upon the
192
00:11:17,300 –> 00:11:18,600
children.
Children and upon the children’s
193
00:11:18,600 –> 00:11:21,400
children unto the third and
fourth generation, what have we
194
00:11:21,400 –> 00:11:23,000
got?
Was we say to people it’s a
195
00:11:23,000 –> 00:11:26,900
balance, isn’t it?
He’s got Justice and mercy and
196
00:11:26,900 –> 00:11:30,100
it’s perfectly balanced.
Their heavenly father, is it
197
00:11:30,100 –> 00:11:31,700
perfectly balanced and US
brothers and sisters.
198
00:11:31,700 –> 00:11:35,300
Will, of course not.
We know that God’s consistent.
199
00:11:35,500 –> 00:11:38,300
He’s consistent, he’s reliable,
he’s predictable.
200
00:11:39,900 –> 00:11:42,200
You know, how he’s going to
react to any situation because
201
00:11:42,200 –> 00:11:44,400
he said he was affording the
word and said, this is how I
202
00:11:44,400 –> 00:11:46,200
operate.
This is what I think this is
203
00:11:46,200 –> 00:11:50,500
what I do, he is consistent, but
what else do we know about him?
204
00:11:50,500 –> 00:11:52,200
Let’s turn over to the New
Testament.
205
00:11:53,500 –> 00:11:58,100
First John 4:8 and we read
together, he that loveth not
206
00:11:58,100 –> 00:12:03,200
knoweth not God for God is love.
Remember what we said we’ve got
207
00:12:03,200 –> 00:12:06,700
Justice and we’ve got Mercy, the
principles that he stands for,
208
00:12:06,700 –> 00:12:10,600
he won’t change but his ability
to show Mercy to those who wish
209
00:12:10,600 –> 00:12:13,600
to repent.
They’re the two characteristics
210
00:12:13,600 –> 00:12:18,100
of our loving Heavenly Father.
It’s a central part of his being
211
00:12:18,100 –> 00:12:21,200
those two welded together.
Do you know what?
212
00:12:21,200 –> 00:12:22,800
We don’t read.
We never read anywhere in
213
00:12:22,800 –> 00:12:24,200
Scripture.
That God is anger.
214
00:12:24,300 –> 00:12:26,300
We read that God is love.
We don’t read got his anger.
215
00:12:26,300 –> 00:12:28,600
Why is that?
That’s an emotion that he
216
00:12:28,608 –> 00:12:32,700
exhibits but at the core of his
buried, very being God is love
217
00:12:33,300 –> 00:12:35,500
and he’s prepared to exhibit
that to those who want to
218
00:12:35,500 –> 00:12:39,500
worship and come before him.
So if you got your, your
219
00:12:39,500 –> 00:12:41,800
Strong’s out, you looked up the
word anger or its derivatives
220
00:12:41,800 –> 00:12:43,600
and you said, okay, how many
times does this word occur in
221
00:12:43,600 –> 00:12:45,300
the Bible?
Well, in the Old Testament, as
222
00:12:45,300 –> 00:12:49,700
we saw it occurs, many times, it
actually occurs 455 times.
223
00:12:50,200 –> 00:12:53,300
So, 450 5 times the word anger
occurs in the Old Testament.
224
00:12:53,700 –> 00:12:56,000
Do you know what I found?
Amazing, out of those four
225
00:12:56,000 –> 00:12:58,500
hundred and fifty five times,
three hundred and seventy five
226
00:12:58,500 –> 00:13:00,200
of those times, relate to go
away.
227
00:13:01,400 –> 00:13:04,800
He’s angry, he’s Roth, he’s
annoyed.
228
00:13:04,800 –> 00:13:06,400
Look at that.
Psalm 7 verse 11.
229
00:13:06,400 –> 00:13:09,800
He says God, judges the
righteous and God is angry with
230
00:13:09,800 –> 00:13:12,400
the wicked every day.
He’s angry with the wicked.
231
00:13:12,400 –> 00:13:15,200
He’s angry with the nation’s,
he’s angry with Israel when they
232
00:13:15,200 –> 00:13:19,400
turn their back on him.
CC anger is a Divine emotion
233
00:13:20,300 –> 00:13:23,900
that dwells within got.
He tells us these angry about
234
00:13:23,900 –> 00:13:25,900
things was.
He angry about his angry about
235
00:13:25,900 –> 00:13:30,400
challenge to his Holiness and
his righteousness, and he’s not
236
00:13:30,400 –> 00:13:34,600
going to tolerate it and because
he is holy and righteous, but
237
00:13:34,600 –> 00:13:37,100
because he is merciful, he welds
those two characteristics
238
00:13:37,100 –> 00:13:39,400
together, doesn’t he?
His Holiness stands against in?
239
00:13:39,500 –> 00:13:44,800
He won’t tolerate that But his
Mercy seeks those who wish to
240
00:13:44,900 –> 00:13:48,500
come before him and to serve
him, he seeks to be able to
241
00:13:48,500 –> 00:13:49,800
provide a way for that to
happen.
242
00:13:50,300 –> 00:13:53,500
So all of God’s laws as we know
are based upon his Holiness and
243
00:13:53,500 –> 00:13:56,300
his mercy and I’m not telling
you anything, you don’t already
244
00:13:56,300 –> 00:13:58,700
know.
How does that affect us when we
245
00:13:58,700 –> 00:14:02,000
come to look at the situation of
God’s ability to deal with
246
00:14:02,000 –> 00:14:04,800
anger?
Well, in Deuteronomy chapter 13
247
00:14:04,800 –> 00:14:08,400
and verse 15.
And 16, we see Moses recounting,
248
00:14:08,400 –> 00:14:11,000
what you always said?
He said, look, I’ve set before
249
00:14:11,000 –> 00:14:14,300
you this day.
Life and good and death and
250
00:14:14,300 –> 00:14:16,600
evil.
You’ve got to challenge life and
251
00:14:16,600 –> 00:14:19,000
death, good and evil.
And it’s that constant
252
00:14:19,000 –> 00:14:22,200
challenge, isn’t it?
We’re going to serve God, are we
253
00:14:22,200 –> 00:14:26,400
going to serve ourselves?
And the messages go forward,
254
00:14:26,500 –> 00:14:28,200
serve God.
Because if you do, he’ll be
255
00:14:28,200 –> 00:14:31,600
merciful, he will be gracious.
He is consistent.
256
00:14:31,600 –> 00:14:33,400
He is predictable.
He is reliable.
257
00:14:33,400 –> 00:14:36,800
He doesn’t change.
And so therefore if you follow
258
00:14:36,800 –> 00:14:41,400
this pattern which is serving
him he will recognize that and
259
00:14:41,400 –> 00:14:45,500
be merciful unto you if you
choose not to well, his anger is
260
00:14:45,500 –> 00:14:48,600
shown to those who choose not to
follow his principles and he’s
261
00:14:48,600 –> 00:14:54,300
very righteous in his anger.
So God’s justice and his
262
00:14:54,300 –> 00:14:58,400
righteousness stimulates his
anger, he looks at a situation
263
00:14:58,400 –> 00:15:01,100
says that’s wrong.
That challenge is my Holiness
264
00:15:01,500 –> 00:15:05,400
and I won’t tolerate that.
What about we come to the New
265
00:15:05,400 –> 00:15:07,200
Testament?
Well, of course we got the Lord.
266
00:15:07,200 –> 00:15:08,600
Jesus Christ.
What did he say?
267
00:15:08,600 –> 00:15:10,900
If you’ve seen me, you’ve seen
the father and how did he
268
00:15:10,900 –> 00:15:12,600
witness that?
Well, he did that his life,
269
00:15:12,600 –> 00:15:15,200
didn’t he?
And so, a couple of quotes we’ll
270
00:15:15,200 –> 00:15:18,000
look at in a minute.
Mark 3 John 2 examples of Our
271
00:15:18,000 –> 00:15:22,800
Lord showing anger or Roth.
We know he never sinned.
272
00:15:23,800 –> 00:15:27,700
So we know Christ, never sinned.
And yet he shows anger or Roth.
273
00:15:28,700 –> 00:15:30,500
And we can struggle with that
brother and sisters and young
274
00:15:30,500 –> 00:15:31,600
people.
We can think of ourselves.
275
00:15:31,800 –> 00:15:35,700
How do we put that together?
Because so often, when we get
276
00:15:35,700 –> 00:15:41,100
angry, very quickly switches
from anger to Us actually
277
00:15:41,300 –> 00:15:43,800
speaking in advisory with our
lips or acting in advisor.
278
00:15:43,800 –> 00:15:48,100
Li how did the Lord Do It?
Well, I guess the challenge is
279
00:15:48,108 –> 00:15:50,600
to think, first of all, what
what makes us get angry?
280
00:15:51,800 –> 00:15:56,900
What drives us to become angry?
Well, nabal.
281
00:15:57,000 –> 00:15:59,300
Sorry, not Nathan came to David,
didn’t he?
282
00:15:59,600 –> 00:16:02,600
After the tragic events that
have Bathsheba and Nathan came
283
00:16:02,600 –> 00:16:07,000
with a parable second Samuel,
chapter 12 and, you know, the
284
00:16:07,000 –> 00:16:09,200
story very well and he came and
he spoke about the fact that a
285
00:16:09,200 –> 00:16:12,000
rich man had a huge flocks and
there was one poor man, had a
286
00:16:12,008 –> 00:16:13,800
little ewe lamb.
He cared for that lamb and he
287
00:16:13,800 –> 00:16:15,400
loved it and that lamb loved
him.
288
00:16:16,000 –> 00:16:18,100
And Along came a rich man, and
he sent someone to get, hold of
289
00:16:18,100 –> 00:16:19,900
that lamb.
Bring it back and let’s barbecue
290
00:16:19,900 –> 00:16:23,000
that for my visitor.
What’s David say?
291
00:16:24,100 –> 00:16:28,200
A look at that verse for verse
the bottom on there, David and
292
00:16:28,200 –> 00:16:31,200
David’s anger was greatly
kindled against them and he said
293
00:16:31,200 –> 00:16:33,200
to Nathan.
As Yahweh liveth the man that
294
00:16:33,200 –> 00:16:35,100
has done this thing shall surely
die.
295
00:16:35,400 –> 00:16:38,700
What happened in David?
Do you know the sheer Injustice,
296
00:16:39,600 –> 00:16:42,700
the she wickedness of what had
happened in this story.
297
00:16:42,700 –> 00:16:46,100
That was being portrayed to him,
fired up within David a feeling
298
00:16:46,100 –> 00:16:49,600
of justice, and, right?
And he said that man’s Gotta
299
00:16:49,600 –> 00:16:52,000
Die.
I’m not going to tolerate that
300
00:16:52,000 –> 00:16:55,000
my kingdom.
I will stand for justice and
301
00:16:55,000 –> 00:16:59,700
right and his anger was killed
with Kindle within him so that
302
00:16:59,700 –> 00:17:03,000
sheer Injustice aroused within
David, the action to do
303
00:17:03,000 –> 00:17:06,000
something.
Now as we know, first of all, he
304
00:17:06,008 –> 00:17:07,800
was overreacting to the
situation.
305
00:17:08,700 –> 00:17:10,500
Secondly, tragedy is about to
find out.
306
00:17:10,500 –> 00:17:12,900
Actually it’s a parable and it’s
all about you David.
307
00:17:13,800 –> 00:17:17,400
However, David was a man after
God’s Own Heart and what he saw
308
00:17:17,400 –> 00:17:20,099
that sheer Injustice.
He said no I’ll act about that.
309
00:17:21,400 –> 00:17:23,500
The evil of the situation, made
him act.
310
00:17:24,599 –> 00:17:29,200
And a creator with him anger and
it made something happen, you
311
00:17:29,200 –> 00:17:30,700
know, we’re going to find
brother and sisters throughout
312
00:17:30,700 –> 00:17:34,300
scripture that God works with
people who show real anger will
313
00:17:34,308 –> 00:17:36,400
come back to our reading that
Matt read for us tonight, Jonah
314
00:17:36,400 –> 00:17:39,200
for unusual reading perhaps
until look at the subject in it.
315
00:17:40,300 –> 00:17:45,300
God works with people who show
some amazing attributes as far
316
00:17:45,300 –> 00:17:50,700
as anger.
Okay, question for all of us.
317
00:17:52,200 –> 00:17:55,300
Try to remember the last time
that you experience anger and
318
00:17:55,300 –> 00:17:57,400
ask yourself the question, why
did I get angry?
319
00:17:58,400 –> 00:18:00,900
If you can sit there honestly
and say, I can’t remember
320
00:18:01,900 –> 00:18:04,300
myself, personally don’t look
around and see is I remember
321
00:18:04,300 –> 00:18:06,400
that brother got angry and my
husband got angry, or my wife.
322
00:18:06,400 –> 00:18:07,600
Got angry and my kids getting on
it.
323
00:18:07,600 –> 00:18:13,600
You, it was the last time you
got angry about an incident, if
324
00:18:13,600 –> 00:18:16,300
you can’t remember check your
pulse, no, not really.
325
00:18:16,400 –> 00:18:20,800
If you can’t remember drive it
harder or you’re in a marvelous
326
00:18:20,800 –> 00:18:24,000
category, but it’s likely your
answer was somewhere in your
327
00:18:24,000 –> 00:18:26,100
answer.
You will mention some injustice,
328
00:18:26,500 –> 00:18:30,500
something that was Inequitable
something that really annoyed
329
00:18:30,500 –> 00:18:34,000
you because that just isn’t fair
that shouldn’t happen to
330
00:18:34,000 –> 00:18:38,400
somebody or something those
incidents just they challenge
331
00:18:38,400 –> 00:18:42,900
what is right and wrong.
And you might have directed your
332
00:18:42,900 –> 00:18:47,300
anger, against a person or
against an object, or even
333
00:18:47,300 –> 00:18:52,600
Brethren sisters against God.
Now, please note, we are not
334
00:18:52,600 –> 00:18:55,300
discussing, whether your
perception of wrong is valid or
335
00:18:55,300 –> 00:18:57,700
invalid.
It’s not what I’m asking you.
336
00:18:58,400 –> 00:19:01,100
We’ll talk about that later on
what I’m just saying.
337
00:19:01,100 –> 00:19:03,700
Think about the last time you
got angry and was it because
338
00:19:03,700 –> 00:19:06,700
someone made you angry, was it?
Something that happened.
339
00:19:07,500 –> 00:19:09,500
Let’s have a look in scripture
for some examples of people who
340
00:19:09,500 –> 00:19:11,900
went down that path.
First of all, a person a person
341
00:19:11,900 –> 00:19:15,900
who got very, very angry with
tragic consequences.
342
00:19:16,700 –> 00:19:21,600
Genesis for Cain and Abel to
Brethren to Brethren, who
343
00:19:21,600 –> 00:19:24,700
decided that one was going to
follow the ways of Yahweh and
344
00:19:24,700 –> 00:19:26,200
the other one was going to do
what he wanted to do.
345
00:19:26,800 –> 00:19:30,400
What happens but unto Cain and
to his offering he had not
346
00:19:30,400 –> 00:19:34,900
respect and Cain was very wroth
and his countenance fell.
347
00:19:36,100 –> 00:19:38,400
What it came.
Think it happened well, he
348
00:19:38,400 –> 00:19:40,400
actually felt slighted by able,
didn’t he?
349
00:19:40,900 –> 00:19:43,400
He thought that able have gone
out of his way to make it
350
00:19:43,400 –> 00:19:47,400
example of Cain and came toward
upon that and we don’t know what
351
00:19:47,400 –> 00:19:50,200
the time frame was, whether it
was days hours, weeks months.
352
00:19:50,200 –> 00:19:52,700
But he dwelled upon that.
And what was the outcome?
353
00:19:52,700 –> 00:19:54,900
The outcome was he actually
killed his brother?
354
00:19:57,500 –> 00:20:01,200
If you want to know where anger
left unchecked can end up your
355
00:20:01,200 –> 00:20:04,900
reading in Genesis chapter 4,
you let that run and you’ll kill
356
00:20:04,900 –> 00:20:07,600
your brother and maybe you won’t
kill your brother physically
357
00:20:07,600 –> 00:20:09,500
while whacking him.
Over the head with a big stick,
358
00:20:10,300 –> 00:20:12,200
your brother might leave the
truth because of the things you
359
00:20:12,200 –> 00:20:14,200
do or say to him because you’re
angry with him.
360
00:20:15,700 –> 00:20:18,700
So we challenge that we there’s
someone who’s angry about a
361
00:20:18,708 –> 00:20:21,100
person would have been an
object.
362
00:20:22,500 –> 00:20:25,200
Oh, come on John.
You say no one gets angry at an
363
00:20:25,200 –> 00:20:26,400
object.
What would you get angry in an
364
00:20:26,400 –> 00:20:32,500
object.
Remember Balaam.
365
00:20:33,800 –> 00:20:36,300
And he wrote his little donkey
to get that house full of gold
366
00:20:36,300 –> 00:20:39,500
and silver, and his whole Focus
was on that.
367
00:20:40,700 –> 00:20:42,700
And his silly little donkey
wouldn’t go where he wanted.
368
00:20:42,700 –> 00:20:44,600
So what happened?
Well, he wouldn’t go into the
369
00:20:44,600 –> 00:20:46,700
angel, you know, this story with
no heard it from Sunday school
370
00:20:46,700 –> 00:20:49,900
lessons, but what really
happened, what really happens is
371
00:20:50,300 –> 00:20:54,200
Balaam jumps off the ass and his
anger was kindled, and he gets
372
00:20:54,200 –> 00:20:57,500
his stuff and he whacks his poor
donkey the ass and he lays into
373
00:20:57,500 –> 00:21:02,400
the donkey, that’s an object and
we go the foolishness of the
374
00:21:02,400 –> 00:21:06,500
prophet.
Brethren ever had your lawn
375
00:21:06,500 –> 00:21:07,900
mower.
Not start the Saturday morning.
376
00:21:09,100 –> 00:21:13,800
And thought boy, this is really
annoys me or maybe maybe
377
00:21:13,800 –> 00:21:17,100
something like a computer.
It’s in and out of it object
378
00:21:17,100 –> 00:21:19,600
with bits of wire and a bit of
glass and I don’t know what’s in
379
00:21:19,600 –> 00:21:20,500
there.
No idea.
380
00:21:21,400 –> 00:21:22,700
But sometimes it doesn’t do what
you want.
381
00:21:22,700 –> 00:21:24,500
Does it?
Have you ever got angry at your
382
00:21:24,500 –> 00:21:26,700
computer and we laughed
everything?
383
00:21:26,700 –> 00:21:28,900
All people wouldn’t get angry at
donkey.
384
00:21:28,900 –> 00:21:31,700
How silly is that ever?
Whack your computer hoping to
385
00:21:31,700 –> 00:21:34,500
make it work or shout it?
Shout it at your computer or
386
00:21:34,500 –> 00:21:37,900
your lawnmower but your sewing
machine or whatever it is you’re
387
00:21:37,900 –> 00:21:40,100
angry at an object.
It’s pointless.
388
00:21:41,500 –> 00:21:44,500
Except the aspect about Denis
because God was in control.
389
00:21:47,500 –> 00:21:48,800
Perhaps, we’re starting to see
that.
390
00:21:49,000 –> 00:21:51,500
Hmm, maybe some of their
Brethren and those in the
391
00:21:51,500 –> 00:21:54,000
scriptures, do have same
challenges that we have.
392
00:21:54,200 –> 00:21:56,800
What, about angry at God?
Turn to the reading that Matt
393
00:21:56,800 –> 00:22:00,800
did for us in Jonah, chapter 4,
and unusual reading, probably
394
00:22:00,800 –> 00:22:04,900
for a class it’s often
challenged the sister we get to
395
00:22:04,908 –> 00:22:06,800
the end of Jonah and this is
what we find.
396
00:22:07,900 –> 00:22:10,500
Here’s an example of a brother
who was obviously God-fearing
397
00:22:10,500 –> 00:22:12,000
and godly.
He went out to do the work of
398
00:22:12,000 –> 00:22:13,400
God.
He was a prophet he went and did
399
00:22:13,400 –> 00:22:14,700
what he was told to do what
happens?
400
00:22:14,700 –> 00:22:18,100
He he saves Nineveh.
And what’s the result?
401
00:22:18,800 –> 00:22:20,900
He is extremely angry about
that.
402
00:22:21,100 –> 00:22:23,200
Who’s he angry with?
He’s angry with God.
403
00:22:23,300 –> 00:22:28,100
You know, Jonah for should be a
celebration chapter at least 120
404
00:22:28,100 –> 00:22:29,900
thousand.
People got saved.
405
00:22:30,700 –> 00:22:32,200
What do we know?
God is not willing that any
406
00:22:32,200 –> 00:22:34,400
should perish?
He saved at least a hundred and
407
00:22:34,400 –> 00:22:35,700
twenty thousand people and
what’s Jonah?
408
00:22:35,700 –> 00:22:38,400
Say you’re wrong.
And I’m I’m mad at you.
409
00:22:38,500 –> 00:22:40,500
I’m so angry about the way
you’ve dealt with this
410
00:22:40,500 –> 00:22:43,800
situation.
Look at it, if you cut it, in
411
00:22:43,800 –> 00:22:46,400
the words, very angry verse 1,
but it displease Jonah
412
00:22:46,400 –> 00:22:48,600
exceedingly.
He was very angry.
413
00:22:49,600 –> 00:22:51,400
God says, do what are you angry
about?
414
00:22:51,500 –> 00:22:54,300
He says, well denied, this was
my saying, I told you in my
415
00:22:54,300 –> 00:22:56,400
country.
Therefore, I fled Tasha’s for.
416
00:22:56,400 –> 00:22:59,600
I knew that they were gracious
and merciful and slow to anger.
417
00:22:59,600 –> 00:23:03,900
Oh, we’ve already seen that.
Heavenly God is absolutely
418
00:23:03,900 –> 00:23:06,900
predictable and reliable.
He doesn’t change and Jonas, and
419
00:23:06,900 –> 00:23:07,900
I know you don’t change.
Engine.
420
00:23:07,900 –> 00:23:10,100
Because of that, these people
have been saved.
421
00:23:11,300 –> 00:23:14,000
Because his, you’re angry.
Yeah.
422
00:23:15,300 –> 00:23:16,900
And then he ends up with a good,
doesn’t he?
423
00:23:17,200 –> 00:23:20,700
And he sits under a GERD.
And the good guys and what
424
00:23:20,700 –> 00:23:22,900
happens to China?
He’s angry again.
425
00:23:24,000 –> 00:23:27,800
God says, to him, do you be do
well to be angry and Jonah said,
426
00:23:27,800 –> 00:23:29,500
yeah, I’m doing well, to be
angry.
427
00:23:29,700 –> 00:23:32,100
I’m very angry about what’s
happened in my life.
428
00:23:34,500 –> 00:23:36,600
But let’s stop for a minute.
Think about why did Nineveh
429
00:23:36,600 –> 00:23:38,400
repented are?
Because it was in the plan of
430
00:23:38,400 –> 00:23:40,100
purpose of Yahweh?
Yes, that’s true.
431
00:23:40,200 –> 00:23:42,300
What happened?
What drove them to repent?
432
00:23:42,800 –> 00:23:45,400
A man going through the city
with a message forty days and
433
00:23:45,400 –> 00:23:48,500
Nineveh destroyed.
Oh, that was a catalyst to it.
434
00:23:48,800 –> 00:23:50,800
Let’s have a look at what
actually it says, in chapter 3
435
00:23:50,800 –> 00:23:54,800
and verse verse 9, this is the
king talking in the leaders
436
00:23:54,800 –> 00:23:57,900
saying and who can tell, if God
will turn and repent from his
437
00:23:58,000 –> 00:24:00,400
away from his Fierce anger that
we perish.
438
00:24:00,400 –> 00:24:03,300
Not, here’s a gentile nation of
non-believers ago.
439
00:24:03,700 –> 00:24:05,900
Hang on a minute.
In this is Israel’s God.
440
00:24:06,100 –> 00:24:09,900
He has a fierce anger.
If we choose not to obey him, we
441
00:24:09,900 –> 00:24:11,900
know what that Fierce anger will
do.
442
00:24:12,100 –> 00:24:15,500
It will destroy us 40 days and
we’re gone.
443
00:24:17,000 –> 00:24:19,600
And they listen to that.
And what happened?
444
00:24:19,600 –> 00:24:21,200
Verse 10 and God saw their
works.
445
00:24:21,200 –> 00:24:24,600
And they that they turn from
their evil ways and God repent
446
00:24:24,600 –> 00:24:26,800
of the evil that he had said, he
would do unto them.
447
00:24:27,000 –> 00:24:31,600
And he did it.
Not God, repented did Jonah have
448
00:24:31,600 –> 00:24:33,500
a right to be angry?
Well, he certainly thought he
449
00:24:33,500 –> 00:24:35,200
did.
He’s prepared to challenge the
450
00:24:35,200 –> 00:24:38,300
Almighty.
Is it will go head-to-head with
451
00:24:38,300 –> 00:24:40,200
his messenger and say.
Yep, absolutely.
452
00:24:40,200 –> 00:24:44,500
I’ve got a right to be angry.
He was very, very clear because
453
00:24:44,500 –> 00:24:48,100
he expresses to God, how angry
is actually actually is, and
454
00:24:48,100 –> 00:24:50,100
what was his problem?
He saw that.
455
00:24:50,100 –> 00:24:53,400
God had conducted, a great
Injustice upon him.
456
00:24:53,800 –> 00:24:55,800
You did listen to me.
I told you this would happen
457
00:24:56,100 –> 00:24:58,500
upon his Nation, they’re going
to come down and Destroy Israel,
458
00:24:58,500 –> 00:25:02,400
all of which were true in time.
And we’d sit here in this Hall
459
00:25:02,400 –> 00:25:03,800
tonight and go with Jonah was
wrong.
460
00:25:03,900 –> 00:25:05,400
That was clearly.
That was wrong.
461
00:25:06,300 –> 00:25:10,200
He didn’t understand God,
Brethren and sisters and when we
462
00:25:10,200 –> 00:25:13,500
sit down and think about
ourselves, if we ever got that
463
00:25:13,500 –> 00:25:16,800
angry, do we sometimes use
language like Jonah?
464
00:25:16,800 –> 00:25:20,300
Oh, perhaps, we’re not brave
enough to actually speak it out
465
00:25:20,300 –> 00:25:24,000
loud.
But if you ever thought that and
466
00:25:24,000 –> 00:25:27,000
perhaps, towards God situation
has happened in your life, and
467
00:25:27,000 –> 00:25:29,300
you think that’s just not fair.
I’ve done this and this and this
468
00:25:29,300 –> 00:25:31,400
God, where are you?
What’s this happened?
469
00:25:31,400 –> 00:25:36,200
Why is this going on?
Perhaps we haven’t said it.
470
00:25:36,500 –> 00:25:38,400
Absolutely.
As Brave as Jonah, but I’m sure
471
00:25:38,400 –> 00:25:41,400
probably at some stage.
All of us have thought thoughts
472
00:25:41,400 –> 00:25:44,900
like that can get?
It was yahweh’s anger that led
473
00:25:44,900 –> 00:25:47,700
to them to repent because we saw
he gave him the warning.
474
00:25:47,700 –> 00:25:49,000
If you don’t repent or destroy
you.
475
00:25:49,300 –> 00:25:51,300
They’re fierce anger was with
the thing that they were
476
00:25:51,300 –> 00:25:53,100
terrified of and they dealt with
it.
477
00:25:55,600 –> 00:25:58,700
God’s anger brought a better
response that he designed.
478
00:25:59,200 –> 00:26:01,300
He wanted to see that happen and
it happened.
479
00:26:02,200 –> 00:26:04,100
What if are anger brother and
sisters could be used to the
480
00:26:04,100 –> 00:26:07,400
same effect?
What if we could actually make a
481
00:26:07,400 –> 00:26:10,200
positive use of her anger?
Because, as we said, when we
482
00:26:10,200 –> 00:26:15,600
started anger is an emotion The
challenge for every one of us is
483
00:26:15,600 –> 00:26:20,000
what Paul wrote to the Ephesians
where he said, be angry and sin.
484
00:26:20,000 –> 00:26:23,100
Not and the challenge for us and
we’d like to spend some time
485
00:26:23,100 –> 00:26:25,800
tonight.
Looking at is okay, we can be
486
00:26:25,800 –> 00:26:28,700
angry about it.
Injustice, how do we not sin?
487
00:26:29,200 –> 00:26:30,800
How do we actually work our way
through that?
488
00:26:31,000 –> 00:26:34,000
That challenge I said, we’d look
at the example of the Lord.
489
00:26:34,000 –> 00:26:36,400
Jesus Christ.
Here’s some examples.
490
00:26:36,400 –> 00:26:39,200
When he went into the, into the
temple, you know, this and he
491
00:26:39,200 –> 00:26:41,200
drove out those were selling
oxen and sheep.
492
00:26:41,200 –> 00:26:42,300
Why?
Because you’ve turned my
493
00:26:42,300 –> 00:26:45,600
father’s House into a house of
merchandise and he drove them
494
00:26:45,600 –> 00:26:49,100
out.
Take these things.
495
00:26:49,100 –> 00:26:51,600
Hence he says, look at the end
of that, his disciples
496
00:26:51,600 –> 00:26:54,500
remembered that it was written
the Zeal of thine house.
497
00:26:54,500 –> 00:26:59,900
Hath eaten me up The disciples
saw the anger of their master
498
00:27:00,500 –> 00:27:03,500
and attributed that for a deep
concern for his father’s house,
499
00:27:04,100 –> 00:27:07,300
they knew him then.
Spent time with him, they didn’t
500
00:27:07,300 –> 00:27:09,600
just go, oh, he’s had a bad day.
He’s got out of bed on the wrong
501
00:27:09,600 –> 00:27:11,100
side and I don’t mean that
flippantly.
502
00:27:11,700 –> 00:27:14,600
Sometimes we do with each other,
we got having a bad day.
503
00:27:14,800 –> 00:27:17,500
No, they said this is the Zeal
of these father’s house.
504
00:27:17,500 –> 00:27:20,400
He’s making a stand on behalf of
his father because he knows what
505
00:27:20,400 –> 00:27:22,400
this house stands for and he
knows it.
506
00:27:22,400 –> 00:27:24,000
Turning into a Marketplace is
wrong.
507
00:27:27,200 –> 00:27:30,700
There was another occasion, he’s
in a synagogue, you know it?
508
00:27:30,700 –> 00:27:33,500
Well as a man with a withered
hand and the Pharisees set him
509
00:27:33,500 –> 00:27:37,100
up right at the very front and
they challenged Christ as to
510
00:27:37,100 –> 00:27:39,300
whether you’re going to heal
this man or not.
511
00:27:40,200 –> 00:27:42,600
What’s he say?
Mark chapter 3 verse 4 and 5 it
512
00:27:42,608 –> 00:27:46,300
says, Under them.
Is it lawful to do good on the
513
00:27:46,308 –> 00:27:48,600
Sabbath days or do evil to save
life?
514
00:27:48,600 –> 00:27:51,300
What he killed but they held
their peace.
515
00:27:51,600 –> 00:27:54,500
And when he looked around upon
them with anger being grieved
516
00:27:54,500 –> 00:27:55,600
for the hardness of their
hearts.
517
00:27:55,600 –> 00:27:57,700
He said to the man stretch forth
his hand and we know he healed
518
00:27:57,700 –> 00:28:01,200
him.
But look, what happened?
519
00:28:01,400 –> 00:28:05,600
He was angry, why was he angry?
Because those evil men were
520
00:28:05,600 –> 00:28:09,500
prepared to take a poor
individual like this man subject
521
00:28:09,500 –> 00:28:13,200
him to ridicule and and mocking,
put him right in front of the
522
00:28:13,208 –> 00:28:14,000
Lord.
Jesus Christ.
523
00:28:14,000 –> 00:28:15,000
Why?
Because they want to try and
524
00:28:15,000 –> 00:28:20,100
catch a man and he said you’re
evil that’s wicked what you’re
525
00:28:20,108 –> 00:28:24,300
doing and he was angry.
Because the Injustice that whole
526
00:28:24,300 –> 00:28:27,500
event struck our Lord was a
desperate need for that man to
527
00:28:27,500 –> 00:28:32,000
be healed and all those in that
room would say, well, see if you
528
00:28:32,000 –> 00:28:33,700
will or not because it’s a
Sabbath day.
529
00:28:34,800 –> 00:28:39,100
Brought about an angry response
in our Lord and I brought about
530
00:28:39,100 –> 00:28:41,000
a scripture response and it
brought about a healing of a
531
00:28:41,008 –> 00:28:43,700
man.
You know, anger, you could
532
00:28:43,700 –> 00:28:46,000
describe anger.
As a big red flashing light on
533
00:28:46,000 –> 00:28:48,400
the dashboard of Life.
What is it?
534
00:28:48,500 –> 00:28:51,300
It’s a light that flashes.
It’s saying something is in just
535
00:28:51,300 –> 00:28:55,500
something is wrong.
It goes off from time to time in
536
00:28:55,500 –> 00:28:58,400
our life and we look around
things, occasionally in a place
537
00:28:58,400 –> 00:29:01,400
of employment, and we go, that’s
not fair.
538
00:29:02,200 –> 00:29:05,600
That’s in, just that challenges,
you always Holiness.
539
00:29:06,500 –> 00:29:10,600
It’s just the big light.
It’s flashing to us challenge
540
00:29:10,600 –> 00:29:12,200
for us, brothers, and sisters,
is what do we do?
541
00:29:12,200 –> 00:29:15,900
Because anger can be a very
powerful motivator to move us
542
00:29:15,900 –> 00:29:19,100
towards doing something positive
and right to do something, which
543
00:29:19,100 –> 00:29:23,300
will uphold yahweh’s Holiness to
correct an injustice like David
544
00:29:23,300 –> 00:29:24,600
and the rich man.
For example.
545
00:29:25,600 –> 00:29:28,000
David just didn’t gawa.
Send the poor man.
546
00:29:28,000 –> 00:29:31,000
Another lamb.
No, then just as of what had
547
00:29:31,000 –> 00:29:33,200
just happened struck him and he
said I want to do with that.
548
00:29:35,500 –> 00:29:37,000
But I tell you what, brother and
sisters we need to be
549
00:29:37,000 –> 00:29:40,300
particularly careful because of
this angers only one letter
550
00:29:40,300 –> 00:29:42,000
short of danger.
You have seen those signs.
551
00:29:42,000 –> 00:29:44,200
They put them over deep holes,
they put them on building sites.
552
00:29:44,200 –> 00:29:46,700
Danger, do not enter danger,
danger danger.
553
00:29:47,100 –> 00:29:48,500
You know what?
When we start to let that big
554
00:29:48,500 –> 00:29:51,500
red, light of anger, flashing
our on our dashboard as it were
555
00:29:51,500 –> 00:29:54,900
of life.
We’ve got to be very careful
556
00:29:54,900 –> 00:29:57,500
because we’re actually one step
away from danger.
557
00:29:58,200 –> 00:30:01,400
We actually can very easily sin,
and our reaction can be
558
00:30:01,400 –> 00:30:08,400
anything, but Godly We can
forget about what God would do.
559
00:30:08,400 –> 00:30:10,900
We consider get forget about
what our Lord Jesus Christ has
560
00:30:10,900 –> 00:30:14,100
done, and we can end up making
things a whole lot worse,
561
00:30:14,600 –> 00:30:16,700
because we have allowed anger to
drive us forward.
562
00:30:17,100 –> 00:30:19,300
So, the challenge tonight is,
how do we process anger in a
563
00:30:19,308 –> 00:30:21,700
spiritual way and actually make
it positive.
564
00:30:22,300 –> 00:30:24,700
We’ve looked at Cain and Abel.
That was a disaster.
565
00:30:25,300 –> 00:30:28,400
We looked at Jonah and God not,
not a good place to be.
566
00:30:29,400 –> 00:30:32,100
We’ve looked at table, dr.
David David, and Nathan.
567
00:30:32,800 –> 00:30:35,800
And we saw how that interacted
the rich man and what happened
568
00:30:35,800 –> 00:30:39,200
in David’s life.
You know, all those three people
569
00:30:40,200 –> 00:30:43,500
came.
Jonah and David all felt angry
570
00:30:43,500 –> 00:30:46,000
towards the same object.
You know what it was.
571
00:30:47,300 –> 00:30:51,000
Someone else.
They’re not angry with
572
00:30:51,000 –> 00:30:55,500
themselves, they’re not beating
themselves up, they’re angry
573
00:30:55,500 –> 00:31:00,600
with someone else.
The challenge for this is this.
574
00:31:02,100 –> 00:31:05,400
As we look at the subject, it’s
really easy to break it back to
575
00:31:05,400 –> 00:31:08,900
being purely theoretical,
analytical, pull it apart.
576
00:31:09,400 –> 00:31:11,200
The challenge, for all of us is
how do we relate in our
577
00:31:11,200 –> 00:31:14,000
relationships, our interpersonal
relationships, our husbands, our
578
00:31:14,000 –> 00:31:17,000
wives, our children, our
parents, our Ecclesia, our
579
00:31:17,000 –> 00:31:19,700
Brethren and sisters.
And of course, it doesn’t, just
580
00:31:19,700 –> 00:31:21,000
stay.
There goes out into our work
581
00:31:21,000 –> 00:31:25,100
place, or a place of study.
How do we react in the ongoing
582
00:31:25,100 –> 00:31:29,300
relationships?
We have What do we need to do
583
00:31:29,300 –> 00:31:31,700
first, when we get angry that
big red light goes off in our
584
00:31:31,700 –> 00:31:33,800
head and we get angry, what’s
the first thing we need to do?
585
00:31:33,900 –> 00:31:35,800
You know what you need to do?
You need to consciously
586
00:31:35,800 –> 00:31:37,500
acknowledge to yourself that
you’re angry.
587
00:31:38,300 –> 00:31:40,400
You go off.
Seriously, John like one.
588
00:31:40,400 –> 00:31:41,700
Look at me.
I look in the mirror.
589
00:31:41,700 –> 00:31:43,800
Everyone can see how angry my
ears have gone red.
590
00:31:43,900 –> 00:31:46,000
I’m angry.
Oh no.
591
00:31:46,100 –> 00:31:47,600
You need to stop.
And actually acknowledged for
592
00:31:47,600 –> 00:31:52,600
yourself and say I’m angry
because you need to ask yourself
593
00:31:52,600 –> 00:31:56,800
the question.
What’s happening to me, you
594
00:31:56,800 –> 00:31:59,400
know, anger can hit us that fast
like that.
595
00:31:59,700 –> 00:32:02,100
Someone tells you something like
that, you’re angry.
596
00:32:03,900 –> 00:32:07,100
You’ve built up a head of steam
as it were and you’ve got a real
597
00:32:07,100 –> 00:32:11,300
anger and of course because we
think fast and act fast we tend
598
00:32:11,300 –> 00:32:15,800
to speak Farsi you open your
mouth and outcomes exactly what
599
00:32:15,800 –> 00:32:19,500
you’re thinking about that NS.
We’re always busy framing the
600
00:32:19,500 –> 00:32:20,500
response.
We’re going to give to the
601
00:32:20,500 –> 00:32:22,300
brother or the work made or
whoever it is.
602
00:32:22,800 –> 00:32:25,200
We haven’t stopped.
We haven’t listened.
603
00:32:25,400 –> 00:32:27,400
We haven’t thought through the
fact we’re angry.
604
00:32:28,200 –> 00:32:30,700
You know what we are far more
likely to make a very positive
605
00:32:30,700 –> 00:32:33,600
response to anger if we
recognize what’s happening.
606
00:32:33,700 –> 00:32:37,800
inside our head Wow, I’ve just
got angry.
607
00:32:39,300 –> 00:32:41,400
Okay now I’ve got some choices
to make.
608
00:32:44,000 –> 00:32:46,200
Paul said be angry and sin not
that’s the challenge and that’s
609
00:32:46,200 –> 00:32:48,300
our goal.
We want to try and work to that.
610
00:32:48,400 –> 00:32:51,600
So as we said before anger isn’t
seen it can’t be the Lord Jesus
611
00:32:51,600 –> 00:32:55,600
Christ showed anger yet.
He never sinned anger is not sin
612
00:32:56,900 –> 00:32:58,800
when you become angry.
You’ve got to say okay stop for
613
00:32:58,808 –> 00:33:00,000
a minute.
What’s happening to me?
614
00:33:00,000 –> 00:33:05,200
I’m becoming angry challenge was
never don’t get angry challenge
615
00:33:05,200 –> 00:33:07,000
Paul gave the Ephesians is don’t
see him.
616
00:33:08,600 –> 00:33:11,300
Well, I’m because the wrath of
man worketh not.
617
00:33:11,300 –> 00:33:13,700
The righteousness of God is
James tells us in chapter 1 and
618
00:33:13,700 –> 00:33:15,900
verse 9 could be pretty careful
over this.
619
00:33:16,500 –> 00:33:18,200
So, how do I respond to my
anger?
620
00:33:18,500 –> 00:33:20,500
So that my actions will be
constructive and in his
621
00:33:20,500 –> 00:33:23,500
spiritual, vain well.
Step number one, we need to
622
00:33:23,500 –> 00:33:26,700
acknowledge her angry.
If you don’t ever give you self
623
00:33:26,700 –> 00:33:28,300
the time to think.
Actually, I’m angry about this,
624
00:33:28,600 –> 00:33:31,800
you’ve just launched straight
into stage two, which may be
625
00:33:32,000 –> 00:33:34,800
constructive.
Usually, it’s destructive
626
00:33:34,800 –> 00:33:37,600
because you’ve allowed yourself
to think, right?
627
00:33:37,600 –> 00:33:40,300
I need sort this problem out.
I need to sort out right now.
628
00:33:41,800 –> 00:33:44,300
So it’s about restraining our
immediate response.
629
00:33:45,400 –> 00:33:48,300
And from there, there’s two
usual patterns, which we can
630
00:33:48,300 –> 00:33:51,200
follow.
Once we’re angry and everyone
631
00:33:51,200 –> 00:33:54,000
tends to follow them.
And neither of them are very
632
00:33:54,000 –> 00:33:56,600
useful to a disciple, a follower
of Lord Jesus Christ.
633
00:33:57,500 –> 00:33:59,600
But look at the wild Ranger,
look how people respond to being
634
00:33:59,600 –> 00:34:05,300
angry, they respond with either
number one verbal or physical
635
00:34:05,300 –> 00:34:08,100
venting.
You’re a complete idiot or worse
636
00:34:08,100 –> 00:34:12,100
and they know some very horrible
language or worst case they
637
00:34:12,100 –> 00:34:14,500
thump somebody.
So I’ve responded, I’m angry
638
00:34:14,500 –> 00:34:16,300
bang on.
Fixed it thumb.
639
00:34:16,699 –> 00:34:21,000
You’ve got thumped. that’s not
the way any discipling Christ
640
00:34:21,000 –> 00:34:25,500
wishes to conduct themselves,
but acknowledge that What’s the
641
00:34:25,500 –> 00:34:30,000
second option you’ve got?
Well I withdraw, I’ll say
642
00:34:30,000 –> 00:34:32,500
nothing.
I’ll just suck it all in and
643
00:34:32,500 –> 00:34:38,199
just bear it and be silent.
That’s not very helpful either.
644
00:34:38,199 –> 00:34:40,300
We’ll see why in a minute, you
know, we need to be able to
645
00:34:40,300 –> 00:34:44,699
restrain our human nature.
We don’t need to fire off an
646
00:34:44,699 –> 00:34:48,300
answer.
We need to just stop and think
647
00:34:48,300 –> 00:34:51,000
for a minute that’s not the same
as storing anger.
648
00:34:53,500 –> 00:34:55,400
It’s refusing to take the
action, which would come
649
00:34:55,400 –> 00:34:58,100
naturally to us, which is give
the person a piece of our mind
650
00:34:58,100 –> 00:35:00,900
and often, when we really angry
is not the time to give a piece
651
00:35:00,900 –> 00:35:02,800
of your mind away, you’re going
to need all the mind you’ve got,
652
00:35:02,800 –> 00:35:06,700
don’t start throwing that around
the place, just stop and think.
653
00:35:08,500 –> 00:35:12,600
What happens?
Well, you know what are we
654
00:35:12,600 –> 00:35:13,800
trying to do?
We’re trying to stop that
655
00:35:13,800 –> 00:35:17,200
natural reaction.
Hi, John never never experienced
656
00:35:17,200 –> 00:35:18,200
it.
Give us an example.
657
00:35:18,200 –> 00:35:20,400
Sure, I’ll share an example with
your 30 years ago.
658
00:35:20,400 –> 00:35:22,200
Don’t even bother trying to work
out who it is.
659
00:35:23,200 –> 00:35:25,500
It’s really quite funny.
We do the marriage seminars and
660
00:35:25,800 –> 00:35:28,000
sister came up afterwards and
said, I really enjoyed that.
661
00:35:28,000 –> 00:35:29,900
I tried very hard to work out
who all the people when you’re
662
00:35:29,900 –> 00:35:33,000
talking about serious, that’s
not the point of the example.
663
00:35:33,400 –> 00:35:36,400
I’m driving down the street and
I see a brother jumping into his
664
00:35:36,400 –> 00:35:37,600
castle.
Give them a beep.
665
00:35:38,900 –> 00:35:41,000
Maybe I shouldn’t beat him and
out of the window.
666
00:35:41,000 –> 00:35:44,400
Comes this as he turns his head
a quickly became this.
667
00:35:45,600 –> 00:35:47,200
He saw who he was shaking his
fist at.
668
00:35:47,200 –> 00:35:49,100
You see the natural reaction was
to shake his fist.
669
00:35:49,500 –> 00:35:51,600
Maybe I shouldn’t have been.
No, I was just saying hi.
670
00:35:51,700 –> 00:35:53,700
Maybe he always says hi to
people by shaking his fist at
671
00:35:53,700 –> 00:35:55,400
them.
Which automatically became the
672
00:35:55,400 –> 00:35:57,100
hand.
The natural response was I
673
00:35:59,500 –> 00:36:03,300
right?
It’s about being able to manage
674
00:36:03,300 –> 00:36:06,300
our natural responses because
the natural man is worth nothing
675
00:36:06,300 –> 00:36:07,500
to us.
In our spiritual senses.
676
00:36:07,500 –> 00:36:10,900
It, it’s about being able to
think through and say, what are
677
00:36:10,900 –> 00:36:13,200
we going to do?
Let’s go back to scripture.
678
00:36:14,000 –> 00:36:18,500
Proverbs Solomon, says 29:11 to
fall out with all his mind, but
679
00:36:18,500 –> 00:36:20,500
a wise man, keep it into
afterwards.
680
00:36:21,300 –> 00:36:23,700
Now someone tells you something,
someone upsets you and a fool.
681
00:36:23,700 –> 00:36:25,800
Just goes where and how it all
comes.
682
00:36:26,900 –> 00:36:30,200
Thomas is that’s not a wise man.
Wise me thinks it through,
683
00:36:31,700 –> 00:36:33,600
doesn’t mean.
He’s gone to sleep, doesn’t mean
684
00:36:33,600 –> 00:36:35,600
he doesn’t care.
He’s just he’s thinking that
685
00:36:35,600 –> 00:36:38,900
through brother translation of
that says, a full gives vent to
686
00:36:38,900 –> 00:36:41,900
his anger but a wise man keeps
himself under control, it really
687
00:36:41,900 –> 00:36:46,200
is self control.
What about this?
688
00:36:47,600 –> 00:36:51,100
The discretion of a man defers
his anger and His glory to pass
689
00:36:51,100 –> 00:36:54,300
over a transgression or another
translation insightful people
690
00:36:54,300 –> 00:36:59,300
restrain their anger My you
insightful, am I can you see
691
00:36:59,300 –> 00:37:01,800
where this is going to leave?
If I had down this path is would
692
00:37:01,800 –> 00:37:04,900
be what may happen historically.
When I react like this, this is
693
00:37:04,900 –> 00:37:06,200
what happened.
People end up in tears.
694
00:37:06,200 –> 00:37:09,700
Things, go wrong.
I’ll be a bit smarter than that.
695
00:37:10,300 –> 00:37:16,300
The writer of Proverbs is
saying, yeah, just Settle he
696
00:37:16,300 –> 00:37:18,900
that is soon.
Angry deal with foolishly.
697
00:37:20,600 –> 00:37:23,100
Yes, you hear things in life,
that make you very ill, make you
698
00:37:23,100 –> 00:37:26,400
very unhappy, you need to be to
take that on board and think
699
00:37:26,400 –> 00:37:29,600
that through because you know
what, our Heavenly father’s
700
00:37:29,600 –> 00:37:32,600
watching and seeing things that
make him extremely angry unhappy
701
00:37:32,600 –> 00:37:40,300
and he will deal with it. so
what I’m being told to do think
702
00:37:40,300 –> 00:37:45,600
before we open our mouth, you
know, there’s a Monumental
703
00:37:45,600 –> 00:37:47,900
speech that was given by an
individual in scripture.
704
00:37:48,500 –> 00:37:51,700
Monumental I think you probably
could could think it through it
705
00:37:51,700 –> 00:37:57,500
last for about one verse.
Jonathan speaks to his father
706
00:37:57,500 –> 00:38:02,600
Saul and says you are have got
David completely wrong and Saul
707
00:38:02,600 –> 00:38:05,900
who was not known for holding
back launched with this
708
00:38:06,600 –> 00:38:09,200
dissertation.
Upon Jonathan pain Jonathan’s
709
00:38:09,200 –> 00:38:11,200
mother.
His wife and saw his anger was
710
00:38:11,200 –> 00:38:13,600
kindled against Jonathan.
He said to him, thou son of a
711
00:38:13,600 –> 00:38:15,300
perverse rebellious woman, do
not.
712
00:38:15,300 –> 00:38:17,300
I know those chosen.
The son of Jesse to thine own
713
00:38:17,300 –> 00:38:19,600
confusion under the confusion, a
mother’s nakedness.
714
00:38:19,900 –> 00:38:22,600
What a magnificent speech that
deliver not.
715
00:38:23,800 –> 00:38:26,300
Why?
Because it does not a spiritual
716
00:38:26,300 –> 00:38:29,100
bone in the man’s body but he
just launched with an attack.
717
00:38:29,600 –> 00:38:32,600
Someone once wrote speak, when
you are angry and you will make
718
00:38:32,600 –> 00:38:34,900
the best speech that you’ll ever
live to regret.
719
00:38:36,300 –> 00:38:40,400
And this means gone down in
history preserved, in the word
720
00:38:40,400 –> 00:38:47,000
of God has been a god less and
be that’s one of his great
721
00:38:47,000 –> 00:38:51,400
speeches.
Because he got angry, he did
722
00:38:51,400 –> 00:38:55,700
Think Through the situation.
And he was prepared to
723
00:38:55,700 –> 00:38:58,000
challenge.
Jonathan and we know what
724
00:38:58,000 –> 00:39:02,000
happened, not only destroy his
own family, he lost he lost the
725
00:39:02,000 –> 00:39:03,800
kingdom.
He lost the respect of his son
726
00:39:04,000 –> 00:39:06,400
because when you are starting to
dish out language like that,
727
00:39:08,000 –> 00:39:09,500
you’re not in a very good space,
spiritually.
728
00:39:09,500 –> 00:39:10,800
And I think we all acknowledge
that.
729
00:39:12,500 –> 00:39:15,600
Sometimes we do say things in a
flash of anger later.
730
00:39:15,600 –> 00:39:18,300
We regret it.
Unfortunately, you can’t erase
731
00:39:18,300 –> 00:39:23,000
it.
Saul’s writings there, therefore
732
00:39:24,000 –> 00:39:26,800
for anyone to read 4,000 years
later, he can’t arrays that.
733
00:39:26,800 –> 00:39:28,500
You might think, yeah.
But I only said that to brother,
734
00:39:28,500 –> 00:39:31,800
you know what that person might
forgive you, but that hurt that
735
00:39:31,800 –> 00:39:33,600
you’ve done might last a
lifetime.
736
00:39:34,900 –> 00:39:36,500
Be careful what we say to each
other.
737
00:39:37,100 –> 00:39:38,600
Sometimes, you hear?
Someone say I didn’t mean to say
738
00:39:38,600 –> 00:39:39,100
that.
You know what?
739
00:39:39,100 –> 00:39:41,100
You’d be more honest to say.
Actually, I wished I hadn’t said
740
00:39:41,100 –> 00:39:44,300
it, you meant to say your brain,
thought it your mouth engage.
741
00:39:44,300 –> 00:39:46,800
You said it.
Really what you say is?
742
00:39:46,800 –> 00:39:50,100
I wished I hadn’t said that and
he part of processing anger.
743
00:39:50,400 –> 00:39:52,500
It’s about to be able to break
that and say, yeah, I’m not
744
00:39:52,500 –> 00:39:54,300
going down that path.
Why?
745
00:39:54,300 –> 00:39:59,000
Because we know the tongues that
little member which causes so
746
00:39:59,000 –> 00:40:05,200
much trouble for all of us.
So oh, if someone says to you,
747
00:40:05,200 –> 00:40:08,000
well, that’s fine for him.
But I can’t control my anger,
748
00:40:08,000 –> 00:40:09,300
just the way I am.
It’s my upbringing.
749
00:40:09,300 –> 00:40:11,800
It’s my just genetic.
Predisposition, this is how I
750
00:40:11,800 –> 00:40:13,300
am.
There’s nothing I can do about
751
00:40:13,300 –> 00:40:15,200
it and I just lose it.
And that’s how it is.
752
00:40:16,100 –> 00:40:18,500
Should say sorry.
Should say sorry them, because
753
00:40:18,500 –> 00:40:21,100
they’re in put themselves in
magnificent company with people
754
00:40:21,100 –> 00:40:24,400
like Saul, who didn’t have a
Godly bone in their body.
755
00:40:24,800 –> 00:40:26,600
You see, we can change the word
of God can change.
756
00:40:26,600 –> 00:40:29,700
It’s not an excuse to say that’s
how I am genetically.
757
00:40:29,700 –> 00:40:31,300
That’s how I am.
All Jonathan.
758
00:40:32,100 –> 00:40:36,300
Saul’s son, you find Jonathan
firing off Rockets like that.
759
00:40:36,800 –> 00:40:39,500
Not recorded for us, suggest you
add that, he didn’t speak like
760
00:40:39,500 –> 00:40:41,800
that.
You see, we can make changes if
761
00:40:41,800 –> 00:40:44,400
we want to, once you begin, an
explosion is very hard to pull
762
00:40:44,400 –> 00:40:46,000
it back in.
Again once that lava of the
763
00:40:46,000 –> 00:40:48,800
volcano’s going, you can’t
really just put it all back
764
00:40:48,800 –> 00:40:50,200
together.
It’s pretty hard to get back
765
00:40:50,200 –> 00:40:51,600
together.
So what do you need to do?
766
00:40:52,300 –> 00:40:54,600
You need to think about it.
You know, I don’t know about
767
00:40:54,600 –> 00:40:56,200
you.
My mother said to me once look,
768
00:40:56,200 –> 00:41:00,300
just if you’re angry count to
10, That didn’t work.
769
00:41:00,300 –> 00:41:03,900
So I had to learn to count to
100 and 1000, then I think my
770
00:41:03,900 –> 00:41:05,700
sister said, you better learn to
count to ten thousand.
771
00:41:05,900 –> 00:41:07,300
No.
But seriously, you know what?
772
00:41:07,300 –> 00:41:08,600
We’ve all got a different
trigger points.
773
00:41:08,600 –> 00:41:12,300
But we will say, hey if it takes
counting to ten as this calmly,
774
00:41:12,300 –> 00:41:15,600
think this through, or if it’s
100, do it rather have an
775
00:41:15,607 –> 00:41:18,500
explosion because a long delay,
make well that volcano that’s
776
00:41:18,500 –> 00:41:22,400
going to explode within you.
And it’s much better not to have
777
00:41:22,400 –> 00:41:25,100
an explosion because once you’ve
done it you it’s difficult to
778
00:41:25,100 –> 00:41:28,900
put back together.
We’ve seen it, the problems of
779
00:41:28,900 –> 00:41:32,200
said, don’t seem with our lips.
We need to be circumspect in the
780
00:41:32,200 –> 00:41:34,600
things that you say, why does it
matter?
781
00:41:35,700 –> 00:41:38,100
Well, he that slow to anger is
better than the mighty and he,
782
00:41:38,100 –> 00:41:39,900
that rule is spirit and he had
taken the city.
783
00:41:39,900 –> 00:41:43,100
It doesn’t say he who doesn’t
have anger, is better known on
784
00:41:43,100 –> 00:41:46,500
says he that slow to anger.
Actually, if it’s used in a
785
00:41:46,500 –> 00:41:50,700
Godly sense, can help you to
clearly see issues.
786
00:41:52,800 –> 00:41:56,800
Now.
What happens then to someone
787
00:41:56,800 –> 00:42:00,100
like David and Jonathan sorry
Saul and Jonathan is our that
788
00:42:00,100 –> 00:42:01,700
was learned behavior.
He will know, it didn’t follow
789
00:42:01,700 –> 00:42:02,900
through, Jonathan didn’t follow
that.
790
00:42:02,900 –> 00:42:08,900
Knees life someone says well
it’s a challenge though, that’s
791
00:42:08,900 –> 00:42:12,600
how I always react.
I’m the marrying brother from
792
00:42:12,600 –> 00:42:14,600
Enfield most of you know that
there was a group of marine
793
00:42:14,600 –> 00:42:17,400
Brethren and their wives who got
together a couple of years ago
794
00:42:17,400 –> 00:42:20,800
now and there was a couple of
nights put on at the Hyde Park
795
00:42:20,800 –> 00:42:24,500
hall, for just the Marine
Brethren their wives and the
796
00:42:24,500 –> 00:42:27,000
subject subject didn’t really
matter.
797
00:42:27,000 –> 00:42:29,900
As I outside speaker, who came
and spoke, his name is Martin
798
00:42:29,900 –> 00:42:31,300
guarantee.
If you ever get a chance to hear
799
00:42:31,300 –> 00:42:34,600
him, his very good, but he spoke
about the fact that
800
00:42:34,600 –> 00:42:37,000
communication and listening and
hearing, and those sort of
801
00:42:37,000 –> 00:42:40,100
things, we build a rapport with
this gentleman and wasn’t a
802
00:42:40,107 –> 00:42:42,200
crispy too often, but over a
period, Period of nights.
803
00:42:42,200 –> 00:42:45,000
We’ve got to know him.
And one night I said and his
804
00:42:45,000 –> 00:42:47,600
background was he dealt with
extremely troubled youth, who
805
00:42:47,600 –> 00:42:50,800
did very violent things and he
was trained as a, as a
806
00:42:50,800 –> 00:42:53,100
specialist in that work, for
that for 25 years, which
807
00:42:53,100 –> 00:42:57,100
probably do your head in, but he
said this, he said, you know,
808
00:42:57,100 –> 00:42:59,200
anyone got any questions as
yeah, we got a commission that
809
00:42:59,400 –> 00:43:01,800
there’s a brother, I know and he
gets very angry.
810
00:43:03,000 –> 00:43:06,200
He gets very angry with his
family and his storm out of the
811
00:43:06,207 –> 00:43:07,800
house and we’ll do this.
He said stop.
812
00:43:08,000 –> 00:43:09,400
Stop chomping at ask you two
questions.
813
00:43:09,400 –> 00:43:11,000
I want straight honest.
Answers it.
814
00:43:11,000 –> 00:43:11,900
Go ahead.
Martin.
815
00:43:12,300 –> 00:43:14,400
He said when he’s pushing his
trolley through a war shopping
816
00:43:14,400 –> 00:43:16,000
center.
He’s going down the aisle and
817
00:43:16,100 –> 00:43:19,600
someone cuts his trolley off.
Does he just ran his trolley
818
00:43:19,600 –> 00:43:21,800
into the baked bean display and
bring the whole thing to the
819
00:43:21,800 –> 00:43:24,100
ground.
And then, run over to the jam,
820
00:43:24,100 –> 00:43:26,400
I’ll in the coffee, I’ll extend
both arms and run down the
821
00:43:26,400 –> 00:43:28,900
whole, passage pulling, all the
glass jars onto the ground.
822
00:43:29,700 –> 00:43:31,600
No, no man.
I don’t think he’s ever done
823
00:43:31,600 –> 00:43:32,500
that.
Right.
824
00:43:33,000 –> 00:43:35,700
Second question in your
community or your church.
825
00:43:35,700 –> 00:43:38,500
Yep, if he doesn’t something
goes wrong.
826
00:43:38,500 –> 00:43:41,100
Does he rip up his Bible?
Throw the hymn book at someone
827
00:43:41,100 –> 00:43:43,200
allowing the ground.
Swearing, I said, no mr.
828
00:43:43,200 –> 00:43:47,000
My knowledge has never done that
either he said right then he’s
829
00:43:47,000 –> 00:43:49,600
got a behavioral problem, not a
mental problem.
830
00:43:49,900 –> 00:43:51,500
He said, please understand the
difference.
831
00:43:51,600 –> 00:43:53,400
A mental problem is and we meet
them.
832
00:43:53,400 –> 00:43:57,300
Poor people who have a mental
issue in their brain, they can’t
833
00:43:57,300 –> 00:43:59,300
digest what’s right and wrong in
the situation.
834
00:44:00,100 –> 00:44:03,200
It’s a very small percentage.
He’s got a behavior problem
835
00:44:03,200 –> 00:44:05,100
because in the world were
shopping center, he doesn’t
836
00:44:05,100 –> 00:44:07,400
destroy things.
When it doesn’t go his way in
837
00:44:07,400 –> 00:44:08,900
your community.
He doesn’t do it.
838
00:44:09,300 –> 00:44:10,600
But at home, he doesn’t get his
own way.
839
00:44:10,600 –> 00:44:12,600
He just Chuck’s a full-on
wobbly.
840
00:44:12,900 –> 00:44:15,700
That’s behavioural.
You need to call it for what it
841
00:44:15,700 –> 00:44:17,500
is.
You can change that.
842
00:44:19,000 –> 00:44:21,300
And it struck me off it.
Yeah, that’s why we spend time
843
00:44:21,300 –> 00:44:23,700
around the word of God because
we can change it.
844
00:44:24,900 –> 00:44:26,800
And yes, sadly, there might be.
Someone is Afflicted with a
845
00:44:26,808 –> 00:44:30,300
mental illness.
Most of us aren’t reflected with
846
00:44:30,300 –> 00:44:32,800
human nature and sometimes we
like to hide behind that.
847
00:44:33,400 –> 00:44:35,100
So we need to look at why we
really angry.
848
00:44:38,100 –> 00:44:39,000
What does that mean?
Sorry.
849
00:44:39,000 –> 00:44:41,700
In our personal relationships.
I don’t know about you.
850
00:44:41,700 –> 00:44:43,900
I can’t remember the last
shouting matching in food hall
851
00:44:43,900 –> 00:44:46,000
or the last punch up in the car
park and neither should there
852
00:44:46,000 –> 00:44:47,400
ever be one.
You might have them here
853
00:44:47,400 –> 00:44:51,000
regularly but I doubt it you see
because good nature and good
854
00:44:51,000 –> 00:44:53,300
manners dictate their way.
We speak to each other when we
855
00:44:53,300 –> 00:44:57,300
were in a community like this is
proper and correct challenge for
856
00:44:57,300 –> 00:44:58,700
us.
All is how do we interact at
857
00:44:58,700 –> 00:45:01,000
home?
When our front doors closed?
858
00:45:01,100 –> 00:45:02,500
How do we interact with our
children?
859
00:45:02,900 –> 00:45:05,600
How do we interact with our wife
or a husband or our parents?
860
00:45:05,600 –> 00:45:08,600
If you’re a young person That’s
where you really going to say.
861
00:45:08,600 –> 00:45:11,100
Yes, I am living these
principles or no, I’m not.
862
00:45:11,900 –> 00:45:14,600
Because good manners dictate,
you’re not really going to have
863
00:45:14,600 –> 00:45:17,800
a fit here at the hall.
And that’s the challenge for us
864
00:45:17,800 –> 00:45:21,600
to Think Through, isn’t it?
Okay, so we’ve said, we’ve got
865
00:45:21,600 –> 00:45:24,200
to try and temporary automatic
response.
866
00:45:24,200 –> 00:45:26,700
We also need to think through an
issue as to why we angry is the
867
00:45:26,700 –> 00:45:28,200
real issue.
What’s in front of us?
868
00:45:28,200 –> 00:45:31,900
Just a while were angry or not.
Example, I’m mowing the lawn on
869
00:45:31,900 –> 00:45:34,600
Saturday morning if this were
true and to just to defend my
870
00:45:34,600 –> 00:45:36,600
two sons, let’s just use this
for an example.
871
00:45:36,600 –> 00:45:38,900
I’m mowing the lawn on, on a
Saturday morning, at 11:00 in
872
00:45:38,900 –> 00:45:40,200
the morning and I am really
angry.
873
00:45:40,200 –> 00:45:43,400
I’m mowing the lawn.
Actually Laura Ingraham angle or
874
00:45:43,400 –> 00:45:46,000
I’m angry because my two boys
are sound asleep in bed by 11:00
875
00:45:46,000 –> 00:45:48,200
on a Saturday morning and my dad
would never let me do that.
876
00:45:48,200 –> 00:45:50,300
And I’ve failed as a father
because I can’t get him out of
877
00:45:50,300 –> 00:45:51,600
it.
You see what’s happened.
878
00:45:51,800 –> 00:45:53,700
I’m actually upset about my
boys.
879
00:45:53,700 –> 00:45:55,000
It’s nothing to do with mowing
the lawn.
880
00:45:55,000 –> 00:45:56,800
But if you ask me, why you
upset, I’m upset because I’m
881
00:45:56,800 –> 00:45:58,100
mowing the lawn.
No you’re not.
882
00:45:58,800 –> 00:46:01,200
Sometimes we need to step back
and say what are we really upset
883
00:46:01,200 –> 00:46:03,100
about?
What’s really got us angry.
884
00:46:03,100 –> 00:46:05,100
What’s driving?
Our feelings is on this
885
00:46:05,100 –> 00:46:08,900
particular case.
And also we need to be a scalar,
886
00:46:08,900 –> 00:46:12,800
you know, we’re on a scale of 1
to 10 where 1 is.
887
00:46:14,000 –> 00:46:16,300
Yeah.
Who cares and 10 is World War 3?
888
00:46:16,700 –> 00:46:19,100
If it’s up to 10 and you need to
sit back and think it through if
889
00:46:19,100 –> 00:46:22,800
it’s a number one, perhaps the
whole world doesn’t care what
890
00:46:22,800 –> 00:46:26,200
you think about everything, okay
so we’ve now stop to think about
891
00:46:26,200 –> 00:46:27,500
things.
What do we do then?
892
00:46:28,300 –> 00:46:32,200
Well we can launch but song as a
retard assets foolish a wise man
893
00:46:32,200 –> 00:46:34,100
keeps his counselor thinks
through the issues.
894
00:46:34,100 –> 00:46:38,000
He says yeah I’m not just going
to deliver my whole thinking on
895
00:46:38,000 –> 00:46:40,100
this here.
I think through what’s
896
00:46:40,100 –> 00:46:43,200
happening.
You know, there’s two options
897
00:46:43,200 –> 00:46:45,600
for a disciple of Christ.
We’ve only got two really.
898
00:46:45,700 –> 00:46:47,700
As I see it, I’m happy to have a
discussion afterwards.
899
00:46:48,200 –> 00:46:51,100
The world’s got more actually go
back to the Old Testament, you
900
00:46:51,100 –> 00:46:53,800
know, quite Ephesians 4, be
angry and sin.
901
00:46:53,800 –> 00:46:56,300
Not know if you know where that
comes from its picked up out of
902
00:46:56,300 –> 00:47:01,200
some for and it’s actually
working from the incident of
903
00:47:01,200 –> 00:47:05,000
David fleeing from Absalom
second Samuel. 16 he’s going
904
00:47:05,000 –> 00:47:06,000
down there cigar butt of the
Hill.
905
00:47:06,000 –> 00:47:09,100
If you remember she may I comes
out and curses him in the most
906
00:47:09,100 –> 00:47:12,800
filthy way.
And it’s abishai us.
907
00:47:12,800 –> 00:47:14,800
Is just let me go over and I’ll
fix this problem.
908
00:47:14,800 –> 00:47:18,600
One hit, he’s gone, that’s it.
Remember he says no, God must
909
00:47:18,600 –> 00:47:21,500
have sent him.
I’m not you sons are alive, too
910
00:47:21,500 –> 00:47:23,700
hard for me.
I’m not going to deal with that.
911
00:47:24,700 –> 00:47:27,300
David was probably very angry
about it, but he didn’t sin.
912
00:47:27,500 –> 00:47:29,500
He didn’t go and take to have
someone go and take that man’s
913
00:47:29,500 –> 00:47:31,900
head off.
So we’ve got two options, we
914
00:47:31,908 –> 00:47:33,400
don’t have the option to take
someone’s head off because
915
00:47:33,400 –> 00:47:34,600
that’s wrong.
Our Lord’s told us.
916
00:47:34,607 –> 00:47:36,500
That’s not what we to do.
What can we do?
917
00:47:36,600 –> 00:47:38,500
Here’s what we can do.
We can lovingly confront the
918
00:47:38,500 –> 00:47:42,300
person and say I am really
unhappy about this or we can
919
00:47:42,300 –> 00:47:44,700
consciously decide to overlook a
matter.
920
00:47:47,300 –> 00:47:49,600
Let’s look at the second one
first and see how it affects us.
921
00:47:50,000 –> 00:47:52,500
Do you know if we decide to
consciously Overlook a matter?
922
00:47:52,800 –> 00:47:54,900
What’s it mean?
Probably applies to Something in
923
00:47:54,900 –> 00:47:57,000
the workplace.
Perhaps, it’s not to do with our
924
00:47:57,000 –> 00:47:58,100
family.
Our brother and sisters.
925
00:47:58,100 –> 00:48:00,400
This is example, someone has
wronged us.
926
00:48:00,700 –> 00:48:02,800
Someone said you’ve got your
line manager.
927
00:48:02,800 –> 00:48:04,900
Said, look fill out.
This Excel spreadsheet, populate
928
00:48:04,900 –> 00:48:06,300
ourselves.
Make sure it works is going
929
00:48:06,300 –> 00:48:09,800
upstairs to the big boss.
You do that, he then tampers
930
00:48:09,800 –> 00:48:11,500
with it.
All the cells fall out, it goes
931
00:48:11,500 –> 00:48:13,900
upstairs, the big boss, the big
boss comes down and gives you a
932
00:48:13,900 –> 00:48:16,100
real ticking off because you
just don’t even know what you’re
933
00:48:16,100 –> 00:48:17,900
doing.
You’ve done the right thing.
934
00:48:20,400 –> 00:48:22,400
You have been accused of
something that you didn’t do.
935
00:48:22,400 –> 00:48:25,000
What do you do?
Well, you can choose to say, is
936
00:48:25,000 –> 00:48:27,600
there any Redemptive value and
me confronting the big boss,
937
00:48:27,600 –> 00:48:30,200
probably not is the person that
work with.
938
00:48:32,300 –> 00:48:35,200
Well, I can accept the wrong and
I can leave the matter to God.
939
00:48:35,700 –> 00:48:37,000
Now that sounds really easy to
see.
940
00:48:37,000 –> 00:48:39,200
Say sitting here, isn’t it?
But actually you can apply that
941
00:48:39,200 –> 00:48:40,900
now life.
How do we know we can apply it
942
00:48:40,900 –> 00:48:44,900
because look what Peter says,
you know that very well taking
943
00:48:44,900 –> 00:48:47,200
the Lord Jesus Christ and he
says this is what our Lord
944
00:48:47,200 –> 00:48:50,100
suffered this is what he went
through and He was a totally
945
00:48:50,100 –> 00:48:53,700
just innocent righteous man who
never was angry to the point of
946
00:48:54,200 –> 00:48:57,200
cine and out of that.
They took him and hung him on a
947
00:48:57,207 –> 00:49:02,400
tree. so he says, you know, if
you suffer for something which
948
00:49:02,400 –> 00:49:08,400
isn’t your fault, so, be it pass
that over, understand that that
949
00:49:08,400 –> 00:49:12,500
is you’re following your Lord
and Master Look at that last
950
00:49:12,500 –> 00:49:16,300
line there but committed himself
to him that judgeth righteously.
951
00:49:16,700 –> 00:49:18,700
What of the Lord do?
He said, I know that there’s a
952
00:49:18,700 –> 00:49:21,600
righteous judge, he’s
consistent, he’s predictable,
953
00:49:21,600 –> 00:49:24,800
he’s reliable.
And he wept over Jerusalem
954
00:49:24,800 –> 00:49:26,500
because he knew was going to
happen to that City when they
955
00:49:26,508 –> 00:49:30,000
killed him, God will deal with
it, and he left that to him.
956
00:49:31,600 –> 00:49:34,500
I want to be really clear.
This is not the same as burying
957
00:49:34,500 –> 00:49:39,400
anger, what’s burying anger?
I’m so mad with that person that
958
00:49:39,400 –> 00:49:42,500
I am not even going to tell them
if they went up.
959
00:49:42,500 –> 00:49:45,200
And said well, yeah, everything.
All right, is something wrong
960
00:49:45,300 –> 00:49:46,000
move.
You don’t know.
961
00:49:46,000 –> 00:49:49,400
I’m not telling you.
No, that’s bearing anger.
962
00:49:50,100 –> 00:49:53,700
What happens if you Barry anger?
Scriptural example, have a look
963
00:49:53,700 –> 00:49:56,200
at this.
Absolute, let’s make it really
964
00:49:56,200 –> 00:49:57,600
clear.
More Godless, man.
965
00:49:57,600 –> 00:50:01,800
You’re not going to find in
David’s life but Absalom When
966
00:50:02,100 –> 00:50:05,800
his half brother forced, his
sister was utterly Furious.
967
00:50:06,400 –> 00:50:08,800
And what did he do?
He went and dealt with, he said
968
00:50:08,800 –> 00:50:10,600
that’s wrong.
That’s abominate.
969
00:50:11,000 –> 00:50:14,600
No, he didn’t.
He spake neither good nor bad to
970
00:50:14,600 –> 00:50:18,000
Amman, and it came to pass after
two full years.
971
00:50:18,000 –> 00:50:20,500
He dwelled on that for two years
and said nothing.
972
00:50:21,400 –> 00:50:24,500
He just was almost like a little
plant and he just kept ending
973
00:50:24,500 –> 00:50:26,000
it.
Every time he saw.
974
00:50:26,000 –> 00:50:28,700
He was angry.
I was going to let go of it.
975
00:50:28,700 –> 00:50:31,200
He wasn’t going to deal with it.
He internalize that and he said,
976
00:50:31,200 –> 00:50:33,200
right.
I’ll deal with this one day.
977
00:50:33,300 –> 00:50:35,500
I’m angry and I’m going to do
what’s right?
978
00:50:36,000 –> 00:50:37,900
There’s no question what his
brother did was evil.
979
00:50:37,900 –> 00:50:40,700
I’m not suggesting that but he
planned this revenge for two
980
00:50:40,700 –> 00:50:42,700
years and then what’d he do had
him killed.
981
00:50:45,600 –> 00:50:49,100
You have been upset about
something two years, five years.
982
00:50:49,800 –> 00:50:52,900
There’s something in your life.
You go at brother three years
983
00:50:52,900 –> 00:50:56,400
ago, three months ago, three
weeks ago, really upset me.
984
00:50:57,400 –> 00:50:59,900
I am not going to let him have
the satisfaction of knowing I’m
985
00:50:59,900 –> 00:51:03,600
upset, but I am upset.
I’ll keep watering and tending.
986
00:51:03,600 –> 00:51:07,600
My little upset Bush because
that keeps me just going brother
987
00:51:07,600 –> 00:51:11,000
says, that’s wrong.
We’re not to actually dwell on
988
00:51:11,000 –> 00:51:13,000
it.
You need to be able to move on
989
00:51:13,400 –> 00:51:18,300
and why?
Because Our Lord, Jesus Christ.
990
00:51:18,300 –> 00:51:21,300
Really believe that God would
judge righteously and Paul says,
991
00:51:21,300 –> 00:51:24,000
the Romans rather give place to
wrath is written vengeance.
992
00:51:24,000 –> 00:51:25,300
Is mine?
I will repay.
993
00:51:26,600 –> 00:51:28,700
You know what you need to be
able to let go of those sort of
994
00:51:28,700 –> 00:51:30,000
issues.
We’re not talking about their
995
00:51:30,000 –> 00:51:32,300
here, we’re talking about
saying, okay, there’s no
996
00:51:32,300 –> 00:51:34,000
Redemptive value in this person
in the world.
997
00:51:34,000 –> 00:51:36,300
I’ll just suffer in silence and
move on.
998
00:51:38,600 –> 00:51:40,700
Perhaps in this situation,
overlooking the transcription
999
00:51:40,700 –> 00:51:43,000
aggression is the best thing
that we can do as an option at
1000
00:51:43,000 –> 00:51:46,400
moment.
The discretion of a man’s to
1001
00:51:46,400 –> 00:51:49,600
furth is to defer his anger, and
it is Glory to pass over a
1002
00:51:49,607 –> 00:51:54,100
transgression brother and
sisters far more often and far
1003
00:51:54,100 –> 00:51:56,600
more useful for us in our
occlusal interactions and our
1004
00:51:56,607 –> 00:51:59,000
interactions with their Brethren
and sisters, our families, our
1005
00:51:59,000 –> 00:52:03,000
husbands, our wives, our
children is to lovingly confront
1006
00:52:03,000 –> 00:52:06,700
the person.
Not what I said lovingly
1007
00:52:06,700 –> 00:52:08,800
confront.
You’re not going to try and
1008
00:52:08,800 –> 00:52:10,700
settle a score.
You’re not trying to win a
1009
00:52:10,707 –> 00:52:12,700
battle.
You’re going to try and work
1010
00:52:12,700 –> 00:52:17,300
through an issue.
Who did this very well?
1011
00:52:18,400 –> 00:52:20,100
Our Lord and Master.
Do you remember Peter?
1012
00:52:20,100 –> 00:52:21,600
Kay new said, no Lord.
You’re not going to go up to
1013
00:52:21,607 –> 00:52:22,900
Jerusalem.
Yagami crucified.
1014
00:52:22,900 –> 00:52:26,200
And he said to him, he rebuked
Peter saying get behind me.
1015
00:52:26,200 –> 00:52:28,700
Satan, you know that situation.
What did he rebuked him?
1016
00:52:30,500 –> 00:52:32,200
So the only person that Lord
rebuked.
1017
00:52:32,600 –> 00:52:34,800
No, two.
More of his disciples came with
1018
00:52:34,800 –> 00:52:37,600
another brilliant idea.
Let’s call down fire from heaven
1019
00:52:37,600 –> 00:52:41,300
and completely incinerate the
Samaritans, he turned and
1020
00:52:41,308 –> 00:52:43,400
rebuked them and said, you know,
not what manner of spirit you
1021
00:52:43,400 –> 00:52:46,700
are.
She didn’t just say, no, that’s
1022
00:52:46,700 –> 00:52:48,000
okay.
He rebuked them.
1023
00:52:52,300 –> 00:52:54,600
Take heed to yourselves, If thy
brother trespass against thee,
1024
00:52:54,600 –> 00:52:58,000
rebuke him, if he repent,
forgive him, what’s Happening
1025
00:52:58,000 –> 00:53:00,400
Here?
You look up the word rebuke, it
1026
00:53:00,400 –> 00:53:03,700
means to censure or to admonish.
Let me tell you what it doesn’t
1027
00:53:03,700 –> 00:53:05,700
mean.
It doesn’t mean to verbally
1028
00:53:05,700 –> 00:53:09,700
abuse, Sometimes we think,
right?
1029
00:53:10,100 –> 00:53:12,900
That particular situations like
this, I’m going to deal with it.
1030
00:53:12,900 –> 00:53:15,400
And boy, when I’m finished that
brother or sisters, certainly
1031
00:53:15,400 –> 00:53:17,500
going to know what I think about
this.
1032
00:53:17,900 –> 00:53:19,900
No rebuking.
According to scripture
1033
00:53:19,900 –> 00:53:21,800
translation is to sensual
demolish.
1034
00:53:23,400 –> 00:53:27,000
Peter said John’s Christ, says
in Luke 17.
1035
00:53:27,400 –> 00:53:29,600
You know what?
Take it ease up if you Brothers
1036
00:53:29,600 –> 00:53:34,600
trespass, go and talk about it
with him or her rebuke him, say
1037
00:53:34,600 –> 00:53:36,800
I’m sorry, it didn’t appreciate
that.
1038
00:53:37,800 –> 00:53:42,600
If he repents forgive him, why
you’re going to lay a matter
1039
00:53:42,600 –> 00:53:45,500
before someone who you perceive
has wronged you.
1040
00:53:46,200 –> 00:53:48,300
But always remember, you might
have perceived it wrong.
1041
00:53:49,100 –> 00:53:52,700
You might have misunderstood the
words or the nuances or the
1042
00:53:52,700 –> 00:53:54,900
situation you might actually be
wrong.
1043
00:53:56,200 –> 00:53:58,800
What do you do by following the
Lord’s example, in Luke 17,
1044
00:53:59,000 –> 00:54:00,200
you’re going to go and say to
them.
1045
00:54:00,500 –> 00:54:02,400
I’m giving you an opportunity to
share more information.
1046
00:54:02,400 –> 00:54:04,000
Perhaps, I don’t have all the
facts.
1047
00:54:04,000 –> 00:54:06,000
Perhaps I came in halfway
through the discussion.
1048
00:54:06,300 –> 00:54:08,600
Perhaps, I’m missing some of
this, I’m angry, but I need to
1049
00:54:08,600 –> 00:54:12,000
talk about it with you or you’re
also giving them an opportunity
1050
00:54:12,000 –> 00:54:13,700
to explain their motives.
They might say, well, look
1051
00:54:13,700 –> 00:54:15,800
brother.
Here’s why I said that because I
1052
00:54:15,800 –> 00:54:18,500
know that ten years ago, when
the closure a person, an
1053
00:54:18,500 –> 00:54:20,800
individual went down that path
is where they ended up today.
1054
00:54:21,000 –> 00:54:23,600
I’m concerned for you go.
Okay, thank you, I appreciate
1055
00:54:23,600 –> 00:54:26,200
that.
Well, they might actually Around
1056
00:54:26,200 –> 00:54:29,200
and say, you know what?
I haven’t slept, since I said
1057
00:54:29,200 –> 00:54:31,900
that to you, I’ve been very
distressed, I’m very sorry.
1058
00:54:32,200 –> 00:54:34,500
Please forgive me.
What’s happened?
1059
00:54:35,400 –> 00:54:38,800
Forgive him and you’ve gained
your brother, Matthew 8, a s
1060
00:54:38,800 –> 00:54:41,900
about reconciling.
Party’s back together.
1061
00:54:41,900 –> 00:54:44,200
Isn’t it confrontations?
Never the purpose.
1062
00:54:44,600 –> 00:54:46,400
It’s about to reconcile that
situation.
1063
00:54:46,700 –> 00:54:49,400
Now it comes to taking some sort
of constructive action.
1064
00:54:50,900 –> 00:54:52,800
You got a choice, you can let
the offense.
1065
00:54:52,800 –> 00:54:57,500
Go Christ, says to forgive them,
Absalom didn’t just remember how
1066
00:54:57,500 –> 00:55:02,100
that ended up.
You can actually do something
1067
00:55:02,100 –> 00:55:04,000
about it.
And if we choose to lovingly
1068
00:55:04,000 –> 00:55:06,400
confront the person who’s wrong,
it wronged us unique to do with
1069
00:55:06,400 –> 00:55:11,700
that anger.
You need to do it as Paul says
1070
00:55:11,700 –> 00:55:14,000
Brethren.
If a man be overtaken in a fault
1071
00:55:14,000 –> 00:55:17,000
ye which are spiritual restore,
such a one in the spirit of
1072
00:55:17,000 –> 00:55:19,500
meekness considering yourself,
lest you be tempted.
1073
00:55:20,300 –> 00:55:22,100
You might raise a conversation.
I you say, John, that’s
1074
00:55:22,100 –> 00:55:23,500
impossible.
How am I going to bring up?
1075
00:55:23,500 –> 00:55:26,000
This person’s hurt me, company
to the quick.
1076
00:55:26,000 –> 00:55:28,500
How am I going to do it?
Well, you make it a matter of
1077
00:55:28,500 –> 00:55:31,000
prayer and then perhaps you go
with something like this.
1078
00:55:32,100 –> 00:55:34,900
I’m feeling hurt and angry over
something that happened.
1079
00:55:35,500 –> 00:55:40,300
Maybe I misunderstood you But I
need to resolve this today.
1080
00:55:40,500 –> 00:55:45,700
Can we talk about it, please?
It’s got to be positive way of
1081
00:55:45,700 –> 00:55:48,500
moving forward, doesn’t it?
It’s a lot better than just
1082
00:55:48,500 –> 00:55:52,900
dwelling upon it.
There’s might explain to you.
1083
00:55:52,900 –> 00:55:56,200
Like it is said that, sorry you
misunderstood me or I’m sorry, I
1084
00:55:56,207 –> 00:55:57,700
didn’t mean that and I’m very
upset.
1085
00:55:57,700 –> 00:55:59,400
Please forgive me, both have an
anger.
1086
00:55:59,400 –> 00:56:02,400
The anger that welled up in you,
the red light is that we’re on
1087
00:56:02,400 –> 00:56:04,400
the dashboard is actually got
you to do something.
1088
00:56:04,900 –> 00:56:06,700
If you weren’t angry, you
probably would sit for a long
1089
00:56:06,700 –> 00:56:08,600
time and just now I’ll just bury
it.
1090
00:56:08,600 –> 00:56:10,800
No, that’s not good.
You need to actually be able to
1091
00:56:10,800 –> 00:56:13,600
get that on the table and talk
it through it.
1092
00:56:13,600 –> 00:56:17,300
Served a good purpose.
You might think we’ll John if
1093
00:56:17,300 –> 00:56:20,000
anger so marvelous.
How come the so many problems in
1094
00:56:20,000 –> 00:56:25,200
the world around about us?
Why is this emotion allow people
1095
00:56:25,200 –> 00:56:28,000
to get completely out of control
and do utterly ridiculous things
1096
00:56:28,000 –> 00:56:30,000
in the world?
And in the Ecclesia let’s be
1097
00:56:30,000 –> 00:56:34,700
blunt.
I’ll tell you why human nature
1098
00:56:34,700 –> 00:56:36,200
would have us, believe, brother
and sisters.
1099
00:56:36,200 –> 00:56:39,200
This is without the word of God
that all anger is of equal
1100
00:56:39,200 –> 00:56:42,800
value.
If I perceive I’ve been wronged,
1101
00:56:43,000 –> 00:56:46,400
then I’ve been wronged I
perceived that way perceive
1102
00:56:46,400 –> 00:56:48,700
reality, I believe it.
It happened to me as I see it,
1103
00:56:48,700 –> 00:56:50,200
so I’m right.
Everyone else is wrong.
1104
00:56:50,800 –> 00:56:53,800
This leads to the conclusion
that I have a right, I have a
1105
00:56:53,800 –> 00:56:56,100
right to be angry, it’s not
great.
1106
00:56:56,600 –> 00:56:58,000
That’s not what we’re seeing in
scripture.
1107
00:56:59,000 –> 00:57:01,200
We’ve got two types of anger, if
you allow me to split it in
1108
00:57:01,200 –> 00:57:05,500
half, you’ve got what we going
to call definitive anger, it’s
1109
00:57:05,500 –> 00:57:08,300
born out of wrongdoing.
Is when you witness,
1110
00:57:08,800 –> 00:57:12,700
perpetrators conducting evil
acts and you feel very angry
1111
00:57:12,700 –> 00:57:15,700
about that, you open up a
newspaper and in someone in
1112
00:57:15,700 –> 00:57:19,300
serious, drop chlorine bombs on
homeless children and killed 500
1113
00:57:19,300 –> 00:57:24,300
of them.
That’s evil, that’s wicked.
1114
00:57:26,300 –> 00:57:29,700
Well, your open up your paper
and you see, you know, some
1115
00:57:29,700 –> 00:57:33,400
African leaders flying around
the world in a million dollar, 5
1116
00:57:33,400 –> 00:57:35,900
million, 25 million, hundred
million dollar jet while he’s
1117
00:57:35,900 –> 00:57:39,000
Nation starves.
That’s evil, that’s theft.
1118
00:57:39,000 –> 00:57:42,900
That’s wickedness.
Or a brother leaves, his wife
1119
00:57:43,600 –> 00:57:47,300
and leaves behind children and
leaves the truth and goes out in
1120
00:57:47,308 –> 00:57:49,900
the world and teams up with some
secretary in the office.
1121
00:57:50,300 –> 00:57:53,000
That’s evil.
That’s wicked.
1122
00:57:54,100 –> 00:57:55,600
And that’s what we call defined
anger.
1123
00:57:56,000 –> 00:58:00,300
It’s the only kind of anger that
God has his anger is only ever
1124
00:58:00,300 –> 00:58:03,800
spurred because his Holiness is
challenged and all his examples
1125
00:58:03,800 –> 00:58:06,100
of just raised with it
challenges, you always holiness.
1126
00:58:07,200 –> 00:58:09,600
The second time of that type of
anger is where we feel
1127
00:58:09,600 –> 00:58:13,400
disappointed, but we’re in a bad
mood or we’ve got out of bed on
1128
00:58:13,400 –> 00:58:17,800
the wrong side in the morning.
And we feel hurt because of
1129
00:58:17,800 –> 00:58:19,600
something, we think someone
might have done.
1130
00:58:20,100 –> 00:58:25,200
This is distorted anger.
And you know what the scary
1131
00:58:25,200 –> 00:58:29,200
thing is, there is absolutely no
difference in the feeling.
1132
00:58:31,900 –> 00:58:34,200
Weather is distorted and you
feel that someone’s done that to
1133
00:58:34,200 –> 00:58:35,200
you.
Or whether you actually open
1134
00:58:35,200 –> 00:58:39,200
newspapers say this is evil.
The feeling of anger internally
1135
00:58:40,000 –> 00:58:43,900
will not be any different, but
the reason is incredibly
1136
00:58:43,900 –> 00:58:46,300
different.
In the first reason, it’s,
1137
00:58:47,000 –> 00:58:48,700
that’s evil against everything
God stands for.
1138
00:58:48,700 –> 00:58:51,400
The second reason.
Is this is all about Justice for
1139
00:58:51,400 –> 00:58:54,300
me.
Me me me.
1140
00:58:54,300 –> 00:58:56,000
And this is where the World
Views anger.
1141
00:58:56,000 –> 00:58:58,400
It’s all about me.
I’m allowed to be angry because
1142
00:58:58,400 –> 00:58:59,900
he cut me off.
I’m allowed to be angry because
1143
00:58:59,900 –> 00:59:01,900
they took my car.
Parking space, I’m allowed to be
1144
00:59:01,900 –> 00:59:05,100
angry because whatever.
Why?
1145
00:59:05,200 –> 00:59:08,300
It’s all about me.
That ever happened in scripture
1146
00:59:08,300 –> 00:59:09,900
where someone got angry because
of them.
1147
00:59:09,900 –> 00:59:13,300
Oh yeah.
Second Kings five Naman.
1148
00:59:14,300 –> 00:59:16,700
He comes down and he says to
Elijah.
1149
00:59:16,700 –> 00:59:18,400
No I’m here.
I’m here with his whole
1150
00:59:18,400 –> 00:59:20,600
Entourage and Luscious as yet
turns out he’s little messenger
1151
00:59:20,600 –> 00:59:22,600
and says, go and dip in the
Jordan 7 times.
1152
00:59:23,200 –> 00:59:26,400
Naaman was Roth.
This man had problems with
1153
00:59:26,400 –> 00:59:28,700
anger, probably made him an
excellent leader of an army
1154
00:59:28,700 –> 00:59:31,000
which went round massacring
slaughtering people because he
1155
00:59:31,000 –> 00:59:32,700
just didn’t really control
anger, very well.
1156
00:59:33,600 –> 00:59:36,700
Look, at the end there, he says,
Arbor are not a bother and
1157
00:59:36,700 –> 00:59:39,600
Firepower wizard two rivers of
Damascus better.
1158
00:59:40,000 –> 00:59:43,900
So he turned and went away.
You know, right age it was Roth
1159
00:59:43,900 –> 00:59:46,400
he’s got, did he seriously has
anger management issues.
1160
00:59:46,700 –> 00:59:52,500
It’s all about him.
But why was he so angry?
1161
00:59:53,700 –> 00:59:56,500
Well, in his mind, Elijah had
done him a huge Injustice.
1162
00:59:56,800 –> 00:59:59,500
He had given a lie, sure, a
chance to come out and prove
1163
00:59:59,500 –> 01:00:02,400
that his God was great.
The mighty name in it, tuned up
1164
01:00:02,400 –> 01:00:05,400
and allowed the God of this
little Nation, Israel, to show
1165
01:00:05,400 –> 01:00:08,000
how powerful he was and that
hadn’t happened.
1166
01:00:08,400 –> 01:00:10,200
What had happened.
Well, the fact that what
1167
01:00:10,200 –> 01:00:13,200
happened was Elijah had cured
and incurable disease had given
1168
01:00:13,200 –> 01:00:17,400
him the remedy to cure leprosy.
That was unheard of, it’ll be
1169
01:00:17,400 –> 01:00:19,800
like if you had cancer and
someone came said he’s the
1170
01:00:19,800 –> 01:00:23,300
remedy for curing cancer.
Like just just understand this.
1171
01:00:23,400 –> 01:00:26,900
This is an incurable disease,
he’s got and Elijah’s, give him
1172
01:00:26,900 –> 01:00:31,300
the Cure and he’s angry because
he perceives that upon him.
1173
01:00:31,300 –> 01:00:35,300
There’s been great hurt done and
he rages to all those round
1174
01:00:35,300 –> 01:00:37,300
about him.
The only thing that actually
1175
01:00:37,300 –> 01:00:41,700
saved him was the fact that some
of the men who Probably looked
1176
01:00:41,700 –> 01:00:43,600
at each other and went.
Here We Go Again.
1177
01:00:44,100 –> 01:00:46,200
Calm down.
Talked him through it.
1178
01:00:47,300 –> 01:00:51,200
And God could work with that.
So, there’s a person you got
1179
01:00:51,200 –> 01:00:54,400
very angry.
How do we recognize when would
1180
01:00:54,400 –> 01:00:56,800
be affected by distorted anger?
That’s that anger, which talks
1181
01:00:56,800 –> 01:00:59,100
all about me?
Well, it’s all about my
1182
01:00:59,100 –> 01:01:01,200
perceived wrongs of led.
Me to be angry.
1183
01:01:02,700 –> 01:01:05,300
Take name it, he perceived that
he had been treated bad.
1184
01:01:05,300 –> 01:01:06,800
It was all in his head, it
wasn’t real.
1185
01:01:06,800 –> 01:01:10,600
He just been given the cure for
an incurable disease, but in his
1186
01:01:10,600 –> 01:01:15,300
head, he said, oh I perceive
I’ve been treated poorly.
1187
01:01:15,700 –> 01:01:17,900
You know what we need to stop
and think and ask ourselves.
1188
01:01:17,900 –> 01:01:19,700
Preven sisters.
Is this anger based on my
1189
01:01:19,700 –> 01:01:22,800
perception?
This is why we’re stopping our
1190
01:01:22,800 –> 01:01:26,500
responses while we’re getting
all upset begin to examine our
1191
01:01:26,500 –> 01:01:28,000
anger.
Why are we so cross about this?
1192
01:01:28,000 –> 01:01:30,700
Is it distorted ingersoll’s.
A great example of that, he just
1193
01:01:30,700 –> 01:01:33,800
showed the store – he genuinely
believed in his head, that David
1194
01:01:33,800 –> 01:01:35,900
was going to kill him.
David raised an army.
1195
01:01:35,900 –> 01:01:38,900
David was going to wipe out his
whole family and he was going to
1196
01:01:38,908 –> 01:01:41,600
take the kingdom.
The reality was David had at
1197
01:01:41,600 –> 01:01:42,800
least two opportunities to kill
him.
1198
01:01:42,900 –> 01:01:47,000
And never acted upon it.
The reality was that, every time
1199
01:01:47,000 –> 01:01:49,600
Saul went after him, David says
to him, right here to kill you.
1200
01:01:49,900 –> 01:01:52,000
So the reality was, he was going
to kill him, but the perception
1201
01:01:52,000 –> 01:01:54,800
his head was, he’s going to so
he acted upon his perception.
1202
01:01:55,100 –> 01:02:00,300
And he dealt with what we call
distorted anger, How do we
1203
01:02:00,300 –> 01:02:02,700
handle bad anger?
What’s bad angle?
1204
01:02:02,700 –> 01:02:04,400
Well, I guess distorted angers
bad anger.
1205
01:02:05,100 –> 01:02:08,600
So often we base our decisions
upon information, that’s wrong.
1206
01:02:10,200 –> 01:02:12,300
You know, something comes fast
as we hear something, it’s
1207
01:02:12,800 –> 01:02:15,300
circumstantial, its
generalizations expectation, is
1208
01:02:15,300 –> 01:02:19,300
personal preference, whatever it
might be, we go, we’ve been
1209
01:02:19,300 –> 01:02:22,500
wronged, we create an anchor,
that’s distorted.
1210
01:02:22,800 –> 01:02:25,300
And if we dealt well upon it,
we’ve got the potential to turn
1211
01:02:25,300 –> 01:02:28,900
that into sin.
That ever happened in Scripture?
1212
01:02:30,700 –> 01:02:33,400
And a Joshua, remember
two-and-a-half drives a heading
1213
01:02:33,400 –> 01:02:35,800
back to the Eastern side of the,
the River Jordan.
1214
01:02:36,300 –> 01:02:38,400
And when they got there, they
built a huge pile of stones
1215
01:02:38,600 –> 01:02:40,800
because they wanted to remember
that they were still part of the
1216
01:02:40,808 –> 01:02:42,100
nation of Israel.
What happened?
1217
01:02:42,100 –> 01:02:44,400
What are the nation of Israel?
Do they quickly all Rush
1218
01:02:44,400 –> 01:02:45,200
together?
I went, huh.
1219
01:02:45,800 –> 01:02:47,800
We know what they’re doing.
They’re building an altar.
1220
01:02:48,300 –> 01:02:49,600
Well, they were better than
that.
1221
01:02:49,600 –> 01:02:51,900
They teamed up got their
soldiers, got their captains of
1222
01:02:51,900 –> 01:02:55,400
thousands, and went charging
down to say, what on Earth are
1223
01:02:55,400 –> 01:02:59,100
you doing?
So look at that, the whole
1224
01:02:59,100 –> 01:03:01,000
Congregation of the children of
Israel, gathered them together,
1225
01:03:01,000 –> 01:03:03,100
at Shiloh, to go up to war
against them.
1226
01:03:03,600 –> 01:03:05,800
This wasn’t just a couple of
Brethren coming to ask what he
1227
01:03:05,800 –> 01:03:08,900
doing.
They’ve armed up to load up and
1228
01:03:08,900 –> 01:03:16,200
they’re going off to war.
What are the men Everybody Get
1229
01:03:16,200 –> 01:03:17,600
Enough?
Try to master say they say,
1230
01:03:17,600 –> 01:03:19,100
whoa!
Whoa!
1231
01:03:19,900 –> 01:03:22,300
If that was what we were doing.
Building an altar.
1232
01:03:22,300 –> 01:03:24,500
The first so worship false gods,
kill us.
1233
01:03:24,500 –> 01:03:26,800
Now, don’t save save us.
Not this day.
1234
01:03:26,800 –> 01:03:30,200
Destroy us.
That was never Our intention.
1235
01:03:35,400 –> 01:03:38,300
And what happened like talked
about it and they said we’re
1236
01:03:38,300 –> 01:03:41,200
happy.
We’re now, we’ll go back, you go
1237
01:03:41,200 –> 01:03:43,000
on.
And the thing please, the
1238
01:03:43,000 –> 01:03:44,800
children of Israel and they
bless God.
1239
01:03:47,600 –> 01:03:50,100
I guess that’s never happened in
occlusal life in the last 100
1240
01:03:50,100 –> 01:03:52,100
years has it we want to cleanse
yourself to another closure.
1241
01:03:52,100 –> 01:03:55,400
What on Earth are you doing?
Wyman.
1242
01:03:56,000 –> 01:03:59,900
Yeah, can happen Carter.
What if you decided to paint
1243
01:03:59,900 –> 01:04:02,400
your hall?
I think you’ve just painted it
1244
01:04:02,400 –> 01:04:04,100
on the outside and done lots of
work.
1245
01:04:05,300 –> 01:04:07,600
What if someone driving past and
a little cliche Down, the Road
1246
01:04:07,600 –> 01:04:11,000
Enfield, drove past and came
into infinitely, tedric Alice,
1247
01:04:11,000 –> 01:04:15,000
panted the whole bear with me
here, that painted it pink.
1248
01:04:16,900 –> 01:04:23,000
And we all say p in a situation
of the world where these evil
1249
01:04:23,000 –> 01:04:27,900
effeminate colors are speaking
about a Godless perception of
1250
01:04:27,900 –> 01:04:32,100
where people want to live pink.
So we all quickly break open the
1251
01:04:32,100 –> 01:04:33,900
cabinet’s.
Got our paint rollers got
1252
01:04:33,900 –> 01:04:35,200
brother.
Jeff hands is a painter and
1253
01:04:35,200 –> 01:04:37,200
said, lead the charge.
We coming up to teach regalia.
1254
01:04:37,200 –> 01:04:40,500
We all marched up the road.
We got up here and we said, what
1255
01:04:40,500 –> 01:04:44,400
are you doing?
And the brother who’s running
1256
01:04:44,400 –> 01:04:48,400
the painting and might have been
able to his Brethren course,
1257
01:04:48,400 –> 01:04:50,100
it’s pink.
It’s the primer.
1258
01:04:50,400 –> 01:04:52,600
We can only put on a pink
primer, you get primer and two
1259
01:04:52,600 –> 01:04:54,800
colors.
It’s pink, it’s pink and we put
1260
01:04:54,800 –> 01:04:56,600
on Pink and then we’re going to
paint it another color.
1261
01:04:58,300 –> 01:05:00,500
Silly story.
Isn’t it would never happen in
1262
01:05:00,500 –> 01:05:02,300
reality because we don’t talk to
each other first.
1263
01:05:02,300 –> 01:05:06,700
Wouldn’t we?
Let’s make sure we do in the
1264
01:05:06,700 –> 01:05:09,700
future talk to each other.
Let’s not launch pre-emptive.
1265
01:05:09,700 –> 01:05:11,800
Strikes against someone who’s
put the pink primer and the
1266
01:05:11,800 –> 01:05:14,400
examples.
Silly on the outside of their
1267
01:05:14,400 –> 01:05:15,700
Hall.
Without actually going and
1268
01:05:15,700 –> 01:05:19,400
saying, brother, I know you here
in the same city or any others
1269
01:05:19,400 –> 01:05:22,300
in the same country or in the
same Fellowship, you mind, if I
1270
01:05:22,308 –> 01:05:24,600
come in, have a cup of tea or
coffee with you or can I ring
1271
01:05:24,600 –> 01:05:29,300
you let’s talk this through.
You know what the ten tribes
1272
01:05:29,300 –> 01:05:34,200
never would have stood for false
worship and that’s right.
1273
01:05:34,400 –> 01:05:39,800
God wouldn’t either But the way
you go about, finding that out
1274
01:05:39,800 –> 01:05:41,800
is pretty important.
And, of course, Reuben could
1275
01:05:41,800 –> 01:05:43,300
have said, I’m by the way, we’re
leaving now.
1276
01:05:43,300 –> 01:05:45,100
And when we get down there,
going to build a huge pile of
1277
01:05:45,100 –> 01:05:46,600
stones, and this is what it’s
for.
1278
01:05:46,600 –> 01:05:48,300
That would have helped the
situation too.
1279
01:05:50,200 –> 01:05:53,400
We need to make sure that we’re
not angry before we get our
1280
01:05:53,400 –> 01:05:55,300
paint brushes and go charging up
the road.
1281
01:05:56,000 –> 01:05:58,200
And if you see em feel, paints,
their haul, any other color, but
1282
01:05:58,200 –> 01:06:01,100
cream actually, if you want to
help us, find out how we can
1283
01:06:01,100 –> 01:06:05,600
come down, that’s fine.
You see the action was correct
1284
01:06:05,600 –> 01:06:08,100
with the ten tribes but their
information was wrong.
1285
01:06:10,500 –> 01:06:12,700
What are we saying here?
Answers the matter before.
1286
01:06:12,700 –> 01:06:14,400
He’s it’s Folly and shame unto
him.
1287
01:06:14,400 –> 01:06:19,100
And so often we do that because
we think we know why how where
1288
01:06:19,100 –> 01:06:21,600
what’s going on?
So long as his don’t do that,
1289
01:06:24,000 –> 01:06:25,600
And the challenge, of course, is
our relationships.
1290
01:06:25,600 –> 01:06:29,000
How do we Relate to each other
in the news.
1291
01:06:30,800 –> 01:06:32,600
Because the fact is the other
person probably never intended
1292
01:06:32,600 –> 01:06:35,200
to make you angry.
Perhaps you’ve just to let that
1293
01:06:35,200 –> 01:06:37,800
bad anger get control of your
life.
1294
01:06:40,800 –> 01:06:43,200
So what we’ve covered tonight is
some steps that we can actually
1295
01:06:43,200 –> 01:06:46,600
apply in our life to say.
Yeah.
1296
01:06:47,200 –> 01:06:49,500
Will be angry and sin.
Not will follow the example of
1297
01:06:49,508 –> 01:06:51,500
Lord Jesus cross and we won’t
get it right.
1298
01:06:52,200 –> 01:06:54,900
But I tell you what, if we don’t
try and follow it when from no
1299
01:06:54,900 –> 01:06:56,100
hope of getting anywhere near
where.
1300
01:06:56,100 –> 01:07:02,500
Here’s What do you want to do?
Next time we get together
1301
01:07:02,500 –> 01:07:05,200
because God willing there,
another class is what we want to
1302
01:07:05,200 –> 01:07:07,400
cover.
We want to look at anger and
1303
01:07:07,400 –> 01:07:10,000
forgiveness, important,
absolutely?
1304
01:07:10,000 –> 01:07:13,400
Any examples in scripture,
plenty, that will make us sit up
1305
01:07:13,400 –> 01:07:15,200
and say, yeah, how do I react to
that?
1306
01:07:16,600 –> 01:07:19,700
We want to look at how anger
affects families and children.
1307
01:07:20,400 –> 01:07:23,300
What’s the impact of anger on a,
on a family?
1308
01:07:23,800 –> 01:07:26,700
And how does that transcribe
into the way the children and
1309
01:07:27,500 –> 01:07:29,300
what about, when you’re angry
with yourself?
1310
01:07:29,900 –> 01:07:32,900
I’m so angry at myself here.
I am again on a Sunday morning
1311
01:07:32,900 –> 01:07:37,100
and I’ve done the same thing.
Talk about that will talk about
1312
01:07:37,100 –> 01:07:40,100
how to speak to an angry person,
plenty of information.
1313
01:07:41,100 –> 01:07:44,500
Plenty of information.
And the last one I want to cover
1314
01:07:44,500 –> 01:07:52,100
is when we are angry with God.
I could promise you that sitting
1315
01:07:52,100 –> 01:07:54,100
here tonight there are people
who are angry with God.
1316
01:07:55,700 –> 01:07:57,200
Who feel that God has let me
down.
1317
01:07:58,600 –> 01:08:00,600
I can’t understand what this
person’s got this.
1318
01:08:00,600 –> 01:08:03,400
I can’t understand why that
person died and maybe angers the
1319
01:08:03,400 –> 01:08:05,500
wrong way.
Maybe it’s just struggling to
1320
01:08:05,508 –> 01:08:08,800
understand God in relation to
how I feel about things.
1321
01:08:09,700 –> 01:08:11,700
We’re going to spend quite a bit
of time, looking at subject
1322
01:08:11,700 –> 01:08:17,600
brother and sisters because some
Monumental Brethren struggle
1323
01:08:17,600 –> 01:08:19,600
with that challenge.
Not only Jonah, we got to see
1324
01:08:19,600 –> 01:08:20,600
some next week.
God willing.
