Since Cain, unhappy people have been angry at God. “God is not fair!” The more they think about that, the angrier they get. “We should be able to do what we want and get into Heaven!”
Angry people love being angry. It is their favorite emotion. Anger leads them to dislike God. “I hate God because He is not ‘fair’.”
~
They claim to be angry at “unfairness”. “It’s not fair! Some people have more money than I do!” They are angry. “God did not make me rich. And, He won’t let me into Heaven unless I obey Him.”
In every generation, angry people agree. “We should all be rich and we should all get into Heaven.”
~
They are also angry because they are not beautiful or handsome enough. “God should have made me rich and good-looking. And, He should let me into Heaven.”
~
Bitter people see only what they do not have. They never see what they do have. They have a hard time understanding that God has blessed them!
“I can see and hear. I can walk and talk. I can read and write. I can think and speak about what I see and hear. Those are amazing blessings!”
~
Anger goes away when we realize what great blessings we have received. Happiness brings more blessings! The happier we are, they more we are blessed.
Angry, bitter people hate that!
“It’s not fair! I should have more because I want more! I do not want to work! I should not need to be nice to people! I have a right to whatever I want.”
~
In every generation, unhappy people are drawn to those with a similar unhappiness. They form political parties. Angry Groups agree. “God did not give us what we want! We must take it!”
We see many Angry Groups of people. We should realize that nearly all of them share one trait.
Like Cain, they have not been Baptized.
