Emphasis Preaching Journal

Anger is not the sinful emotion we sometimes think it to be. Only when it is retained is it dangerous, destructive. Consider a pressure-cooker, its contents and the means by which it works. The lid has a valve which regulates the pressure, allowing excessive pressure to be released. There is a gasket which forms a tight seal with the container. Water is placed in the container, which, when heated to steam, will cook the other contents. A heat is applied. The heat represents consumption of a fuel or the conversion of one energy from to another.
