"Anger is very dangerous. It can take over your heart, turn into a lasting grudge, or an unforgiving spirit, and the result will be judgment. Jesus said very plainly in Matthew 6:15, "If you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will you Father forgive your trespasses." To feel the weight of that warning let's put it in three parts:

1. No one goes to heaven unforgiven by God. Heaven is a place given only to forgiven sinners.

2. No one is forgiven who is unwilling to be forgiving.

3. No one goes to heaven who is unforgiving.

Jesus treats anger the way he treats lust. If you don't fight lust you don't go to heaven (Matt. 5:29). If you don't forgive others you won't get to glory (Matt. 6:15)".

Its the love of the Lord, that enables one to do the will of the Lord, for you would not want to offend the Lord. This is very powerful force of Love, when one keeps His Commandments.
