So anger is the tension between pain and rest that we deal with. God
displays His anger toward sinners by pronouncing death on all violators
of His law. God does not live in tension because nothing can oppose Him.
He simply punishes all corruption. He doesnt wait for someone to
violate His law. He knows before they sin that they are gonna sin. God
has taken care of anger in two ways. He marks all the sin of the wicked.
They store it up for the day of judgement. ... but He overlooks the
sins of the righteous because of Christ, In both instances He has
carried out His law to its fullest. So you can say that God is not
emotional because at all times He is absolutely just. His line between
blessing those in Christ and cursing those who are not is always
perfect. This is His righteous indignation. In the bible He pronounces
judgement and blessing as close to the standard that He judges at all
times. When we pronounce the death sentence in His law our personal
anger gets consumed in His righteous indignation. We need the freedom
that God has because He does whatever pleases Him. When we experience
the absolute pronouncements of His law then we freed from fufilling our
personal anger and we cheer Him on in creating the world where our
blessing is paid to us from the success of the men who used anger to
destroy others.

Anger turned inward is very harmful. But we are not allowed by God to
take out our anger on someone else. He tells us to be angry but dont
let the anger fester. So there is value in anger. Anger is the motive
that moves people to change a problem in the culture. For every opinion
there are disagreements. For every decision in life there is choice
between good or bad. Anger is the emotion that motivates people to do
the good. So a person who has deep convictions has a healthy amount
of anger that he can control. I believe that all pain whether physical
or spiritual is the fuel that produces anger. The only way that we could
avoid anger is to never be opposed by pain. It would be fantasy to live
in a world that was totally innocent.
