My word tells you to be angry and sin not. It implies that you can be angry without sinning, but how often does this happen? Little children display their feelings visibly. They can’t help it. Adults learn to be less transparent, except when it comes to anger. Have you noticed how the atmosphere in a room changes when an angry person walks in, even before they slam the door? Anger contains negative energy that is hard to hide, and people respond to it by reflex, erecting defenses or opposing it with anger instinctively. In this way anger can lead to escalating sin before words are even spoken. It is better not to give anger a place to take hold.
