Sermon on the Mount: Dealing with Anger

This sermon explores Jesus's teachings on anger in the Sermon on the Mount, contrasting them with traditional interpretations of the law. While the Old Testament condemns murder, Jesus goes further, stating that even harboring anger is worthy of judgment, as illustrated by his own displays of righteous anger in the Gospels. Pastor Maggie emphasizes that unchecked anger leads to sin and destruction, urging individuals to confess and address anger rather than clinging to it. She provides practical steps for managing anger, including reflecting on its root cause, calming oneself, seeking reconciliation in relationships, and ultimately, forgiving others as God has forgiven us.
