Anger can become sinful when it is motivated by pride (James 1:20), when it is unproductive and thus distorts God’s purposes (1 Corinthians 10:31), or when anger is allowed to linger (Ephesians 4:26-27).
Nagiging kasalanan ang pagkagalit kung ito ay dahil sa pansariling motibo (Santiago 1:20), kung napipilipit ang layunin ng Diyos (1 Corinto 10:31), o kung hinahayaan ito na manatili (Efeso 4:26-27).
