- Anger by human standards is driven by revenge, pride, selfishness, and injustice. This type of anger is not honoring to God and is in direct contradiction to how God wants His children to live. We are therefore instructed to rid ourselves of moral filth and to be humble and obedient to God’s word.

Let me say just a short word of synthesis and then refer Kathleen to the very specific passages of Scripture. Here’s my synthesis: Let’s put it positively:
That’s my synthesis of what I see. Let me turn now to specific Scriptures so that these can just sink in. Let’s start with the fundamental truth that God is a very happy God in providing gospel hope to sinners. In 1 Timothy 1:11, Paul refers to the “gospel of the glory of the blessed [or happy] God.” We just have to be sure that we rid our minds of...
He does hate sin. I mean, we’re not going to gloss over that. God hates sin, including mine — my regenerate, John Piper sinning. God hates sin, not only because it dishonors him, but because it damages me. Sin damages us, Christians. Ephesians 4:30 says that we can grieve God with our sin. And 1 Thessalonians 5:19 says we can quench his Spirit with...
Here’s what we have to affirm and see in these texts. In and through and under all of this grieving and quenching and displeasing and the resulting discipline, we must not lose sight of the following texts. So let me just read them, They’re glorious. Bathe in these. “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (Romans ...
“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing” (Zephaniah 3:17). Can you hear God singing? No, you cannot because you don’t have glorified ears yet, and you wouldn’t be able to take it. You think thunder is loud. “Fear ...
Maybe I can offer one last summary word that might help put God’s displeasure with our sinning together with his delight in us as his children. Even though God is displeased when we sin, he never looks on us with contempt. I remember talking to a woman some time ago who was struggling with feeling the affections of God because of a sense of continu...
Oct 7, 2016 · Paul says do not argue and complain “so that” or “in order that” you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault. What does Paul mean by becoming children of God? We are already children of God when we accept Christ as our Lord and Savior and are born again.
Oct 19, 2015 · Fathers are not to “provoke their children to anger” as they raise them (Eph 6:14), and believers in general are not to “become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another” (Gal 5:26). One other passage is significant, and it should be fronted here, namely Romans 12:14‒21.
In the Bible, God’s anger is an expression of his justice and his love for the world. But he’s slow to anger, which means he gives people lots of chances to change their behavior. A great example of this is in the story of Exodus, when Pharaoh enslaved the Israelites and ordered their baby boys thrown into the waters.

Feb 26, 2016 · God is slow to anger, “not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). God will bring his righteous judgment to bear on the unrepentant guilty (Exodus 34:7), but he “does not afflict from his heart” (Lamentations 3:33).
