In Chapter 4 of Genesis, the Bible records the story of Cain and Abel, the first two children of Adam and Eve. Abel was a shepherd, keeping his sheep, while Cain was a gardener. The Lord God had told Adam and Eve that they had to bring an offering of a lamb to give to the Him. In obedience to God's commandment Abel brought the first lamb to offer to God. Cain was disobedient and brought the first of his crops from his garden instead. When his offering was not accepted by the Lord God Himself, Cain was so angry that he went out and killed his brother Abel
Here are more solutions to the anger problem
Getting angry is not a sin, the Bible says that we can be angry and not sin. It is when anger erupts into destructive behavior or is nursed over a period of time without resolution that it is sin. So please, do what you need to do to control your anger.
Here are more solutions to the anger problem
- Stay away from angry people. Did your mother or father ever warned you to stay away from such and such a person, because they're trouble? They knew that fraternizing with people who always get in trouble or are always angry will make you the same way.
- Count to ten or walk away so that your anger could subside. Abel should have done this, then he wouldn't have killed his brother and be banished from the rest of mankind. The Bible says that a man that doesn't have control over his own spirit is like a city without walls. In Biblical times, a city without wall could be invaded by its enemies easily; it was very vulnerable and open to attack. So is an uncontrollable man.
- Forgive the person who made you angry. Don't let anger contaminate your spirit and make you bitter, like I was with my friend. You should go and resolve the situation as soon as possible. Always be a t peace with each other, for unforgiveness oftentimes hurts you more than the person you're angry with. And it gives the Devil opportunity to further destroy your life. And remember, if you die with this anger in your heart, you will be separated from God in hell.
- Get counseling for your anger problem. If you need help to help you control your anger, or if you have unresolved issues that make you angry, get a good counselor , pastor, psychologist to help you to deal with what's making you angry.

"Now Abel kept flocks, and Cain worked the soil. 3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the Lord. 4 And Abel also brought an offering—fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. The Lord looked with favor on Abel and his offering, 5 but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. So Cain was very angry, and his face was downcast.
6 Then the Lord said to Cain, “Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? 7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.”
8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, “Let’s go out to the field.”[d] While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him." Genesis 3: 2 - 8 (New International Version)
