What Does the Bible Say About Anger?
Key Scriptures and spiritual guidance on anger
V Biblii sa hnev spomína na viacerých miestach. Hnev je často považovaný za negatívnu emóciu, ktorá môže viesť k hriechu a pustošeniu. Bible nás učí, že je dôležité ovládať svoj hnev a namiesto neho prejavovať lásku, zhovievavosť a pokoj. Je dôležité, aby sme sa nechali viesť Božou múdrosťou a nevydávali sa cestou hnevu a zloby.
