Can GOD make us angry?

[His_nee (Jeff)]

God makes a lot of people angry. I mean, they crucified Jesus, didn't they? Not much has changed.
Personal example: I used to be a victim of personal sin--the mental health people called it "poor life choices." Jesus has chosen to step in and heal me and transform me. That makes people around here angry. Is it my doing? No. Jesus' work in my life apparently p*sses people off (I keep hearing that around town).
So, yes, God makes people angry.

amen. like you I rejoiced when my sin was revealed- brought out in the open, to my attention to repent of- i cried and cried and cried for 2 years, and still cry when i see any sin in my life or the consequences of any sin (which Jesus has set me free from most amazingly and graciously! ) .... and it breaks my heart for other's sake when i see sin in their lives destroying their testimony of their family or their health or their life is so many ways.
i think i got angry with God only for not "setting me free all at once" / i.e. telling me everything right up front/ when I got saved and immersed in Yeshua ---- "GOD! You could have saved me so much trouble ! if you had just told me ! (like I coulda woulda listened and not made any mistakes after that) duh " .... but God sets us free little by little sometimes - it is totallly His Choice. I REJOICE WHEN HE DOES !

Spent almost 5 years being pretty angry at God... that was real smart... trying not to be yet it kept creeping up... I was angry because of the way He was taking Dad home..

I sure can identify with that! My first Wife, suffered with the ravages of cancer and the treatments for three years before she went home to be with Jesus at 50 years of age. I still find it hard to deal with her death because she was so important in the counseling ministry that she was involved in with the women. She was the best pastor's wife a guy could have IMO. Such a beautiful woman of God, I still can't believe God took her.

I disagree I think God understands our anger towards Him and towards the world at times.With His compassion and understanding and mercy.

Wow! Challenging replies. I'm really learning. I can see some thought-provoking examples here.

Howrver, a view (interpretation ), kind of seems to suggest that GOD was wrong for ever having to make us angry.

We get angry at our circumstances and sometimes we take it out on God.We pray and we pray and God is silent.That is when you need to pray some more for God to increase His faith upon you.

??? did something ever indicate Yhwh made anyone angry and in doing so did anything even remotely unrighteous ??? !!! unbelievable!

people get angry at Yhwh because of sin inside themselves, because of their own sinfulness, when they want to resist being saved or healed for whatever reason, or otherwise don't like Yhwh's Perfect Will and Plan and Purpose and Way.
