Article proving Anger Manipulation Disqualifies Ldrship

Well, ok, I wanted to post it here also because the author Biblically shows it for what it is and I think he does a perdy good job.

So, maybe it does belong in this section. Just click on Week 16 of Creating a Clean Heart if you'd like to read it:

quote:

In Galatians 5:20 the next "work of the flesh" noted is "outbursts of anger." Today we would call this "losing your temper" or "going ballistic." Losing control of our anger is a work of the flesh, and like all works of the flesh it will be used as an open door or a "gate of hell" by the devil. Our rage will hurt other people, as well as their respect for us.

Most people know at least one person who tries to control others with their anger. Few things can be more cruel or demeaning for the one who tries to do this, or to the ones who are subjected to it. Is this the kind of dignity that we would expect from someone who truly has authority?

Good article!!
