Bible Question: There is a Verse in the bible that says
"Be Angry and Sin Not" does anyone know where abouts this Verse is.. Somewhere in the New Testament i know that.. but any exact verse or chapter reference... Also what do you think this means... Isn't Anger Sin

Bible Answer: Some additional scriptural thoughts to consider from the same letter to the Ephesians:

Unrestrained venting of anger is one feature of this world’s spirit (Compare Eph. 2:1,2). Many worldly people lose self-control easily. They blow up, then excuse themselves by saying that they were just letting off steam. But this is not what Paul advised, for he wrote: “Get rid of all bitterness, all passion and anger, harsh words, slander, and malice of every kind.” (Ephesians 4:31)

But what if anger builds up despite our developing self-control and other fruits of God’s spirit? “If you are angry, let it be without sin,” wrote Paul. “The sun must not go down on your wrath; do not give the devil a chance to work on you.” (Ephesians 4:26, 27)

So if we are provoked to anger, we should settle the matter quickly, before the day ends. Otherwise, bitterness and resentment begin to take root in the heart, and they are hard to uproot. Do not allow yourself to breathe in the angry, vengeful “air” of this world!—

Psalm 37:8 contains excellent scriptural advice:

“Give up your anger, and forsake wrath; be not vexed, it will only harm you.”

I have read that frequent anger, especially uncontrolled anger is bad for your heart – you may have read the same.
