This anger ladder was
reconstructed after hearing it taught by Dr. Campbell on the radio many
years ago. I had to include it in our Tearing Down Personal
Strongholds manual on CD because it has been a valuable tool, year after
year. When you are angry "with sin", check yourself out and see where
you fall, the top being being "less sinful" and of course, homicide
being the most sinful.

How did you do? Sometimes, we feel guilty for expressing appropriate
anger when anger is a normal emotion to certain circumstances, i.e.
intentional violations of our child's boundaries. The Bible recorded
many instances when God became angry (without sin of course) when His law
was broken year after year.
See our article on Spirit
of Anger for more clarity. We can have appropriate anger, fleshly
anger or a spirit of anger that is taking over our responses.
