RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION or just plain old ANGER?
Are you ever angry about the injustices, lies and deceit in our government, our schools, our churches and in our legal systems? Many people are more angry than ever since the 2020 presidential elections.
How you handled and express that anger can be productive or destructive in your life, both now and for years to come. Here is an important sermon on WRATH / ANGER, one of the “7 Deadly Sins”, by pastor Trent Casto, Naples Covenant Church, Naples, Florida, This sermon tells us what the Bible says about anger, how we should handle anger and the effects of mishandled anger on our life .
There is a second video of an interview by John Stossel of Jordan B. Peterson, a Canadian professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, a clinical psychologist, and a wildly popular lecturer on cultural and political issues. Dr. Peterson comments on the matter of personal responsibility, the benefits having a “dangerous personality” and how to use anger productively.
These can be very, very useful in our daily lives. Compare, Contrast and learn!
(If you don’t want to watch the entire sermon, go to 10:00 minutes through 12:00 minutes for the “meat”. But the entire sermon is well worth the listen)
(This is a short interview and worth every minute)
We have been in a centuries old period of struggle between Good and evil known in the Bible as the “days of distress” or the “tribulation period” as the Bible rightly calls it. Now, it appears we are at a moment of convergence of events which could well usher in a period called the Great Tribulation, also known as The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord. How we conduct ourselves during this momentous time will make “all the difference in the world”, and beyond! Let’s get it right.
Your Brother and Friend,
