Club Adventist




Welcome with open arms fellow believers who don’t see things the way you do.
And don’t jump all over them every time they do or say something you don’t agree with
– even when it seems that they are strong on opinions but weak in the faith department.
Remember, they have their own history to deal with. Treat them gently. Romans 14.1: The Message

Here is a question I might use to start a Sabbath School class discussion:

When you study Jesus' puzzling conduct further, you notice that:
You may choose only one

A thought on Jesus getting angry. I see Jesus getting angry when He saw others getting hurt. When the disciples failed to heal the sick, He got angry. When the vendors were taking advantage of the poor, He got mad. When the Pharisees were taking advantage of widows, He got mad. However when He was the One getting hurt, He said, "Father forgive them for they know not what they do".

We tend to be the opposite. When someone hurts us we get mad. When they hurt other people we are more willing to look the other way.

He may forgive us, but at the same time, He is angry at us for being disobedient. The Bible and EGW are full of examples of Him getting angry at those who go against His Word.

I guess I would have to be shown where God gets angry when He is hurt. I know of many examples where He gets angry when we hurt others.

It is true ...

"The Lord IS slow to anger."

Praise God for that.
