Why God Can't Get Angry (Video)

If we generally agree that loosing our temper at someone means that we have some more growing up to do, why would we think that God does it?

Ditto.

Why give Satan the hits.

[Bodleian_Girl]

Psalm 7:10-12
King James Version (KJV)

10 My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.

11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.

[slumber1]

Psalm 7:11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

[editor-surveyor]

>> “His glorification took place after He rose.” <<

.
Sorry, no. Mary was impregnated by the Spirit of YHWH.

Jesus was God from the moment of conception, as his word plainly says.

Get thee behind us Satan.

[right way right]

God does not get embarrassed by his anger, he is righteous - it is the “end all” to all judgment.

This guy questions Gods judgment about anger?

[Mr. Silverback]

God wrote a book about Himself.

Your ideas disagree with what He had to say.

More specifically, you disagree in detail with things Jesus said about Himself and things people who knew Jesus said about him.

So, you’re selling heresy.

Heresy’s for suckers.

Go find some suckers to sell your heresy to.

[SampleMan]

“Loosing one’s temper” implies an overreaction and loss of control. God does not lose control.

If I catch a pervert molesting my daughter, my righteous anger will most likely result in the pervert's death.

It is a matter of just and unjust. What we normally get with God is unjust on the merciful side, which is good for us given what most of us justly deserve. But righteous anger exists within all good men and the Bible indicates that the Trinity is not devoid of it.

[what's up]

Jesus was not the Divine Human, yet when He entered the Temple. He still was a combination of Son of Man and Son of God.

Jesus is God. He did get angry (justifiably so) on more than one occasion.

[Theo]

Are you saying that Jesus was sinful, and that He was not the only begotten Son of God? That’s kind of Christianity 101 stuff ...

[blueunicorn6]

I don’t “generally agree” with you.

[Mr Rogers]

Ahh...another thread where the authority of scripture is rejected in favor of whimsy.

[brent13a]

Jesus was not the Divine Human, yet when He entered the Temple. He still was a combination of Son of Man and Son of God.

Nowhere in the "Old Testament" is The Messiah required to be G-d.
Nowhere is it taught by G-d, His prophets, nor in Jesus' words that salvation requires belief that The Messiah and G-d are the same.
Nowhere is it taught by G-d, His prophets, nor in Jesus' words that salvation requires belief in the Trinity.
All I am required are to follow G-d's Word as taught by his Son, Jesus.
To say that Jesus and his disciples (all of them 2nd Temple Jews) walked around professing that Jesus was G-d and that you had to believe he was G-d to be saved (or they were too simple to understand the concept of trinitarianism or binitarianism) is absolute nonsense and ignorance of true history and the Mission and Aims of Jesus the Galilean Jew.
However, none of that has to do with the posting or the content of the idiotic video.

The idiot that made that video probably also ignorantly believes that "G-d hates the sin, but loves the sinner."

[Cicero]

There’s a world of difference between sinful anger and righteous anger.

[brent13a]

Every type of christianity teaches Paul's version of Jesus and not the true historical Galilean Jew; the Jew whom walked the dusty roads of Israel and Galilee and whom was made G-d's spiritual Son and given G-d's ultimate mission at the baptism by John the Baptist.
Nowhere is it taught by G-d, His prophets, nor in Jesus' words that I am required by G-d's Law to filter Jesus' teachings through Paul's hellenistic philosophy.
Nowhere is it taught by G-d, His prophets, nor in Jesus' words that the Messiah was to bring a whole new and different religion separate from G-d's Original Word.

So what was Jesus' Mission and Aims as ordained by his (our) Father before corruption into "christianity"?

The Mission and Aims of Jesus

• Jesus was concerned for the fulfillment of the restorative promises of YHWH to Israel, and the constitution of a restored relationship between YHWH and his Chosen People. P. 237 Huat Tan
• The aim of Jesus was to live according to the will of YHWH, of which the Law with the Prophets formed the chief revelation. His viewpoint was ordinary Judaism, he behaved as a pious Jew of Galilee would have been expected. P. 19 Cadbury
•The mission of Jesus was a proclamation of the coming of YHWH’s kingly rule, a regathering or reconstituting of the tribes of Israel at the End-of-the-Age. Jesus addressed his proclamation to Israel in its promised land. P. 385 Meier
• Jesus understood his main task was to be the center of the movement which was a revival. This revival was the realization of the kingdom of God among mankind on earth 
P. 88 Flusser
•Jesus’ mission was to initiate a straightforward challenge: Be better than than the Pharisees. Outdo them in righteousness. Live the Covenant with YHWH to the fullest, following the Law carefully, paying attention not only to the required conduct but also the corresponding right attitude. Plan for the kingdom of YHWH. P. 83 Wilson
•Jesus took his literal message of the imminence of the end, of the Current Age, to Jews who were not faithful. Jesus taught that the 'lost' Jews should return to YHWH's true way. Jesus described Jews who had fallen away from YHWH and did not observe the Mosaic Law as they should as "sinners" and "Lost Sheep”. P. 59 Casey
•Jesus believed his teachings were a prophetic intensification of Jewish tradition and Mosaic Law. Jesus also taught detailed ethical instructions that were an intensification of certain aspects of the Mosaic Law. These certain intensifications were especially relevant for returning sinners. P. 60 Casey
• Jesus’ mission was directed to all Israel both geographically and socially, it covered all regions and included all classes of Jews. It went beyond the borders of geographical Israel to Jews of the neighboring countries, and was addressed to notorious ‘sinners’, whom the national elite had ostracized and excommunicated. P. 164 Meyer
•Jesus went to Jerusalem to bring his ministry and YHWH's restorative program to a climax. Jesus believed that Israel was still, to some extent, in a state of exile and therefore full restoration was still pending. P. 233 Huat Tan
• Jesus understood that YHWH was seeking to gather Jerusalem. Hence, the restoration of Jerusalem to be the city of YHWH's kingship was the goal of Jesus. P. 230 Huat Tan
•The sayings traditions confirm that Zion was like a magnet to Jesus and a countervailing charge of his ministry. It was understood by Jesus to be the city of YHWH's kingship and he sought the restoration of it to that kingship. P. 231 Huat Tan
•Jesus is the only known Jew of ancient times to have taught that not only was the world at the threshold of the End-of-the-Age but also that the New Age of salvation had begun. P. 80 Flusser
•Jesus believed in an intermediary period between the historical past and the End- of-the-Age. Jesus is also the only known Jew to have identified the kingdom of YHWH with that intermediary period. P. 86 Flusser
• For Jesus the kingdom of YHWH was both present and future. Jesus believed there were already individuals living in the manifested kingdom, because the ministry of John the Baptist was when the kingdom began breaking through. P. 80 Flusser
•Jesus' mission was Israel-centric, but he espoused a view of restoration that was indebted to certain strands of Israel's sacred traditions where the gentiles are implicit beneficiaries of Israel's salvation. Jesus conceived of the restoration of Israel as resulting in the salvation of the gentiles from their heathen beliefs. Since this restoration was already being partially realized in Jesus' ministry, it was becoming possible for gentiles to begin sharing in Israel's salvation in the present, by aligning themselves with the ways commanded by YHWH. P. 173 Bird
•Jesus understood himself and his followers to be the new vanguard of the restored Israel, who would appropriate for themselves the role of Israel and the temple, in being a light to the corrupted world. Thus, a gentile mission has its germinal roots in the aims and intentions of Jesus and was developed, reconfigured, and reappropriated in a transformed situation by adherents of the early Christian movement. P. 173 Bird

[Nifster]

The simple answer is because He has already told He does.....who am I to question the mind of God?

God is NOT only love....read the Bible for His attributes. He is capable of righteous anger....end of story. Do not try and put gobbled gook definitions made up either by you or some new age weinie onto God. Read the Screwtape Letters by Lewis and you will find where you have strayed

[Nifster]

your theology will take you straight to the gates of Hell. Unfortunately you will never recognize the anti-Christ when he comes. Good luck with that

[DaveMSmith]

Excellent - we all can follow this.

[Nifster]

ANd you are so scripturally ignorant it isn’t even funny. Perhaps if you spent some time reading some CS Lewis (e.g. Mere Christianity) and the Bible itself your eyes would open. Right now your comments reveal you to be a nonbeliever of the deadly type

[Nifster]

“Every type of christianity teaches Paul’s version of Jesus...” I quit reading your nonsense at that point. Your lack of understanding of God and our Messiah is frightening on its face. Your ignorance drips from every word
