See here the mischief that flows from an angry, passionate, furious
disposition. 1. It makes men provoking to one another: An angry man
stirs up strife, is troublesome and quarrelsome in the family and in
the neighbourhood, blows the coals, and even forces those to fall out
with him that would live peaceable and quietly by him. 2. It makes men
provoking to God: A furious man, who is wedded to his humours and
passions, cannot but abound in transgressions. Undue anger is a sin
which is the cause of many sins; it not only hinders men from calling
upon God's name, but it occasions their swearing, and cursing, and
profaning God's name.
