What is the best way to speak with an angry person?
|
Be careful how you respond to angry people! Or you just might pick up his spirit of anger. The Bible says much on anger. Let's look at five Bible verses on how one should respond to an angry person.
| A gentle answer turns away wrath, But a harsh word stirs up anger. (Proverbs 15:1). |
| But shun foolish controversies and genealogies and strife and disputes about the Law; for they are unprofitable and worthless. (Titus 3:9). |
| Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself; (Philippians 2:3). |
| A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, But the slow to anger pacifies contention. (Proverbs 15:18). |
| Like one who takes a dog by the ears Is he who passes by and meddles with strife not belonging to him. (Proverbs 26:17). |
