As Jordan has grown to fully know. He's saved many people with his interviews the past couple of years. It's a true blessing when men like him who are so unbelievably smart and logical and eloquent, and have a such a wide reaching impact come to truly know the Lord. I mean he literally changed the heart and mind of someone like Russel Brand and Joe Rogan.
@@thetreeofwoe2304 The combination of hyperintellectualism and faith... First he's a fucking smartass, who will not listen to anyone. Second he then turns to faith, which is the complete abandonment of reason. Never liked the guy, he's a dumb bully.
I think Jordan is counting the cost of following Christ and for him It is very serious because he strives to live out his beliefs, not just espouse them as most of us are prone to do. Thus, once committed, Jordan would bind himself to obey God and his commandments no matter the cost. Thank you Jordan for sharing your heart and mind with the rest of us. Continue to count the cost but know with 100% assurance that giving all to Jesus is always worth it! God bless you Brother!
@@samuellarsson3842 it takes a lot to be able to admit to yourself that one’s own half-baked intellect may not be the best guide to help them through life
stfu organized religion is a mental illness based around unearned moral superiority and arrogance (proving my point with your assumption above). Honestly the broken brain of a zealot and a far leftist are no different. Extremism. And Jordan is far more nuanced in his approach to religion he doesn't arrogantly state his faith in an omnipotent cartoon god but the knowledge passed down by man to reach enlightenment. Its his understanding of psychology and his dissection of religion that illustrate the momentousness of humans defying baser instincts to create morality out of thin air but again a zealot like you only sees what they want and has maybe seen 1 hour of his lectures. Get fucked pick up a book
@@DoesNotInhale all false religion focuses on man's effort and his good deeds to achieve salvation . But the gospel of Jesus Christ is the only one that focuses only on Jesus Christ for salvation , it's not what you have done but what Jesus has done for you on the cross , Jesus righteous deeds is what covers us and makes us acceptable to God and we are saved from the coming wrath of God which is upon all who sins . Now such truths are revealed but the perishing ones considers it foolishness , but God has said that the foolishness of God is greater than man's wisdom and God's weakness greater than man's . strength .
“I’m terrified what would happen to you if you actually believed” That is the words of a man who is at the precipice of faith and worried he would lose himself if he commits fully. Let me tell you, you become more like the you that you wish you could be.
Thank you, I kinda need to hear this. Also this remind me of The Tiger metaphor in "Life of Pi" which I think stands for the courage to have faith (when Pi finally let the Tiger in the boat with him since deep down, he needed that Tiger)
Yeah... he confuses me. What's so scary to realize that there's another plain of existence beyond this one? One that's beyond our full understanding, and one that the ruler of and creator of this one sent a version of himself through to better teach us and show us a better way? That's not frightening, that's liberating. It means I don't have to have all the answers and means that at the end of the day someone is there at least watching me. Through my absolute worst moments, I'm never alone.

@@Hanagigi Is it so scary to know that your computer was made by someone? How about the chair you sit in? Or perhaps the house you live in? What makes the world having a "manufacturer" that scary?
I experience this too and I ponder on it a lot. I don't fully consciously understand why it happens but subconsciously, I am responding to something deep down. Reconnecting with my faith and moving forward on the journey of spirituality has become one of my top priorities. It has given me a sense of peace I haven't known for a very, very long time.

Stop blaming God and calling it evil like your life will last forever. God is concerned with eternity not your breath in the wind of a life. Stop being self riotous, fall on your face and worship the creator of the universe that puts that air in your lungs to breath. This is all a test...
@@TheHitman- it’s an unfair test where god never appears. If god created us to be both evil and good doesn’t that make god evil because if that’s the case the holocaust is a byproduct of god.

You need to understand that his wife defeated cancer as the only recorded one in the world with her type. After she started to pray the rosary daily. That's why he believes and says it touches the reality of his actual life.
@@fish4096 Adam and Eve did, in a sense. This is a fallen world, because humans sinned. Some of it is direct, like murder and theft, some of it is indirect, like cancer. God values free will higher than the absolute absence of sin. And if we have free will, we can choose suffering, and if we live in a world where others have free will, they can make us suffer. That doesn't mean God wants them to do it. But he gives them the choice. And Jesus also speaks of picking up our cross. So maybe suffering is necessary in a sense. I don't have all the answers, but as far as I know, that is the introduction to it. But I think those children suffering from cancer have a much higher chance than me of getting into heaven.
The amazing part of this to me is that a genuinely intellectual and now famous person is willing to admit that this could be a reality. It’s extremely rare, like 1 out of a million people with Mr. Peterson’s type of mind that comes to this conclusion, especially in an open way on TH-cam given his popularity. I applaud your courage and I know you will reap the benefit of your genuine thoughts and experience in coming to this conclusion. It is an amazing and hard thing to come to believe, especially given the age that your coming to this knowledge. I fully believe this as well and I think your understanding of things will continue to grow as you continue to seek for Christ. I say this because if he is and was the embodiment of God on earth and is Gods literal son, then he is who he says he is. The creator, alpha and omega, the father and the son, the Son of God, the Redeemer, the Savior, the lamb of god, the word of god, and ultimately he is Jesus Christ. He is still alive and is also very interested in each of us, and I would say very proud of his brother Jordan Peterson.
You are delusional in your thoughts that there is a God or Christ or Jesus, whatever you want to believe. We are supposed to be all of God's children? Then why is there so much hatred, cancer and every other disease that little children are suffering in other countries. Is he not those children's God? I don't think so
I have seen Him. And my shame was too much to be able to look at Him in the eyes. And though as blessed as I am to have seen the Lord, blessed are those who believe and do not see. He said to me, "Will you not give up all things and follow me?"

"Sometimes the objective world and the narrative world touch." This is, I think, exactly what JRR Tolkien was getting at when he told CS Lewis that "the story of Christ was simply a true myth: a myth working on us in the same way as the others, but with this tremendous difference that it *really happened* ."
One of the huge reasons why I’m always a Tolkien fan, his work was greatly impacted by his faith. You compare the structure of The Bible with his structure of The Simarillion and it’s overwhelmingly similar.
"the Word" was the term purposely used by the writer of the Gospel of John to describe Jesus. It was an intentional and direct comparison of the Platonic idea of the "Logos" (which means word in greek.). The logos in greek thought was the abstract ideal from which all things are made. In fact, John 1 even says that "all things were made through him, and nothing was made that was made without him."
@@monkieassasin it turns out as well that “Logos” was being used by Jewish writers of the Second Temple period (Dead Sea Scrolls) to refer to theophanic episodes in Scripture. The way that John the Evangelist brings those two threads together by his identification of Jesus with the Logos is truly amazing.
i can relate to him in some sense.. because, a month after realizing that God is real, Christ is real.. i am still absorbing that reality, i cannot grasp it fully, it's too vast to absorb, my human mind rather rejects it to be false, but my faith pushes to hold on, the reality of Jesus is too overwhelming to handle but i do believe, God is and will lead me to know Him, bit by bit
It’s so profound to read a comment that fully encapsulates how I’m feeling with my newfound faith in Christ. Going through the wheel of atheism into Buddhism into a general amorphous monotheism led to Christ in such a gradual way it was like God opening this flower in my soul. Don’t worry, just know you’re not alone in this. we’re all stumbling through our faith like children in a pond. Even Peter walked on water with the one living God and a strong wind was enough to make him start sinking. Christ is merciful and patient in a way we could never comprehend.

Jordan has more fear of God, who is not a Christian, than most Christians I know who have almost non-existent respect, awe, wonder, fear towards the Almighty. May Christ lead Jordan to the right path.
you could say he's a real Christian. And to be honest, there really isn't many of them. most are sheep, the goal is to strive to be a Shepard. Yet belief has people simply remaining sheep
@Jesse R most christians also ignore how a lot of the bible canon is plagiarised from other holy books or mythology. Noah's ark.. does the flood of Gilgamesh ring a bell??

Watching a brilliant mind like that edge closer and closer to believing, and articulate it on the fly as he speaks, is incredibly moving and something we'll probably never see again in our lifetime on a public stage.
Agreed 👍- also-.Its plain to see from my Believer's perspective that he's on the cusp of accepting Jesus Christ as savior ( and Creator) of the world. The LAST thing the Devil wants! - that's why he's emotional and struggling. He'll be a very STRONG advocate for Christ!! Answer the call, doctor! We can't wait to welcome you into the Kingdom of God 🙏!!!
He believes. His talking as a scholar about other myths and mythical figures. If he didn’t believe he wouldn’t even cry. I think when he says I can’t fully believe he means he can’t believe that Christ is real like he thinks it’s so cool and great he can’t believe it’s actually real, like you won a lambo and ur like man how is this real life? Something like this
I spent a majority of my youth pretending to be someone I wasn’t. I wanted so desperately to be cool, to be noticed, to be liked..I didn’t like who was staring back at me in the MIRROR. I LIED to sound interesting, I LIED to appear funny, I LIED to get anyone to notice me. I wanted GIRLS to notice me...I was constantly chasing that relationship with ANYONE.. Since 2nd grade, constantly seeking the opposite sex. In 6th grade, I began to think about sex..alot I began to “self satisfy” any chance I got. Looking back at the habits I developed in that mindset...it makes me hang my head in shame. My Grandparents divorced, my parents divorced..it only made sense I was seeking that “intimacy”...any intimacy would do the job..

He is waiting for you to shout his name in praise on your darkest nights! He is waiting for you to stop asking the questions that don’t matter, and dig into his word! Waiting for you to take hold of the fact he sent his son to die the death that YOU AND I DESERVE!! Waiting for you to dig into his word for your redemption!

I love how Jordan views this as appropriately monumental as it should be viewed. To know the truth of who God is and what He wants of you is awe-inspiring and should leave all of us in tears. He has a fear and respect for God that so many Christians don't even have, and it's really beautiful to see.
I fully believe. It makes me feel very happy. It makes me know I can accomplish anything I want. It makes me feel responsible to make my grandchildren believe so they too can lead a happy meaningful life. It turned me from a mean son of a gun to an individual with hope for his family and meaning to life. Love and believe in our God and this feeling will be granted to you.
@@ndjarnag You are walking talking flesh and bones who is self conscious and is able to love and hate... It takes more faith to believe you come from a rock then from a supernatural creator who is above your comprehesion, above your understanding and knowledge you have. Many have found God, why are you still wandering around without real purpose ?
Peterson's tears reveal perhaps his sense of mourning over the his realization at a soul level of the bankruptcy of man's wisdom in light of absolute truth.
I’m a newer Christian that has been a closeted Christian for over a year but I became official a few days ago. The way I’ve gone through the Bible I’ve figured out everything on my own with no prior experience around a church or Christian’s. Should be interesting to see how it goes as the only Christian in my house at the age of 15.
Praise the Lord, you are a living proof of first John that the Holy Spirit will teach us we don’t need any man. The word of God is alive it is true and with the guidance of God himself you walk in the light of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah. Much love.
Pray all goes well, if you haven't done it already please do, Ask God for his Holy Spirit. Luke 11:13 - If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!" - Jesus Christ the son of God.
You can accept Christianity without the church, sometimes you need to see it with your own eyes and heart, the church often muddies the waters and puts you off.
I’ve only felt His presence once. I was singing in St Michael’s cathedral in Hamburg for the Sounds of Hope tour. It was 1983, we were done singing and the girl I was with was crying like me. She said “Isn’t it wonderful?” “Yes” I replied. The thing I remember is I felt He was so glad to see us. Like Aslan with Lucy. It made anything bad go away. He really loves us and the love was amazing. Hard to put into words.

Jordan literally admitting to us that he doesn’t believe. “It’s too terrifying to believe.” Actually, it’s not, Jordan. I believe it and it has changed my life forever. I highly recommended you try it.
Listening to Peterson transform from an atheist/agnostic to a believer in at least gla higher power and the power of the narrative of Christ, it paved the path for me to begin to break free of agnosticism. It was a first step and boy have I come a long way now as an actual Christian
I was confused why Peterson was crying because he doesn't need to cry. Like, it's hard to explain, but Peterson talks about God like he is something to be feared, no, he is something to be loved. At least that's what I know as. God can be feared, yes, but mainly he is love, hope, acceptance, grace, kindness, calm, etc. You don't have to fear the lord, just love him.
Her should go find a Deliverance minister and watch him cast out supernatural evil devils from a hapless person using his status as a John 3:16 pardoned Christian and God's perfect King James Bible and all this butt hurt atheism/nihilism goes away. Believing in God is not a choice it's a matter of SURVIVAL understanding the REALITY we live in. Stop whining about mean people and instead CONFRONT REALITY and FIND OUT what's true as outlined above.
This is exactly how I feel about this topic. The deeper I go the more I'm separated from society and the so called reality that has been pulled over our eyes. I still cannot wrap my head around the complex simplicity
Don't think about the end think about the begginging because you can rest in Christ's strength knowing that you will then understand and believe him until the end of your days.
@M.G.C thankyou for speaking on my behalf (Andreas here) I don't feel it's necessary for the reality is you cannot trust the mind for its deceiving, however, the answers you seek are clearly stated in the Holy Bible, and that experience alone will lead all to truth if they seek it from within the heart. God bless you all on your journey 🙏😊
@@MrSaemichlaus I've educated myself pretty well. But perhaps you should reconsider your morality more than your education, because if anything, your attitude towards people who differ from you is pretty toxic. Believe what you will, but I've examined the evidence I've been presented, and how I've been raised, and this is me. No words of some random stranger on the internet are gonna change that. And most likely, it goes both ways. If I were you, I'd just consider trying not to look like a crude and rather inconsiderate jerk in the future.
I also get these visions of Christ and it's just unbelievable overwhelming. Like bathing in pure love. I also thought of Jesus as a Frequency that you can tap into. And Jesus is constantly waiting, inviting you. Knowing. Forgiving. It's just beautiful. It's real.
When you have enough intelligence to you know there’s more to the story than you can ever fully comprehend, it is very frightening. "Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known" (1 Corinthians 13:12)
And total devotion, or sainthood, means the resistance of all temptation. Which is downright impossible? Maybe, maybe not. I think its possible. But darned difficult to say the least.
@@seanthomasmusic Definitely impossible. The wheel of time spins on sin. If you thought what happened in the "Garden of Eden" was a mistake, you weren't paying attention. That's not a curse on humanity, per se, it's the _nature of physical reality._ Put simpler, you wouldn't notice that you were conscious at all, if you weren't tempted by something you know you should resist. That's where the conscious part comes in, and a soul wakes up to find itself a living being. Of course, this would also mean it's true that we didn't need God or any of it to write that story, because if it's based on truth and reality than it could just be self-evidently obvious to any cave-dwelling philosopher with a keen sense of awareness and enough time spent dwelling on self reflection. So, if wondering if _that's_ true shakes the foundation of your faith, then you never had any to begin with. Would it bother you if humans weren't the only stars in this show?
@@ladymercy5275Wrong, it is possible and Jesus showed us the way. Pre-Christ it was impossible, post Christ it is possible. You don’t know what are you are talking about, but it is good to be curious and wrestle with such questions, I suppose.

Well Saints perform miracles and that sort of thing does scare people think why Jesus intimidated people turning water to wine walking on water etc. If some guy you knew did that would it not freak you out a bit? The crucifixion was like a witch hunt because his powers scared people.
I always find it very touching when Jordan Peterson cries. He's so genuine and relatable and I greatly admire him for that. Not very many men (or women for that matter) would let themselves genuinely cry on camera. I hope he gets all the praise he deserves for this

High-doses of serotoninergics taken regularly will do that to a (weak) person, and he was never really a strong one. He knows it. The spontaneous bouts of emotion, his inability to sleep often, and of course the withdrawal symptoms are all derivative of the medication he's been taking for years, and he knows it. So, you deserve the truth. It's the painful kind, obviously, in this case. But if you're really interested, you can see some _wild_ spiritual resonance anytime you want, if you find a local dealer. Look for the hippies, and ask them for some "burning bush," they'll get your narrative overlapping with reality faster than you can finish a joint.
@@ladymercy5275 there will always be a naturalistic explanation, as there should be. Multiple alternative explanations are always best to explore as critical thinkers.

@@natashapotatau4314 my addiction was to opiates and occasionally throwing a few benzo's into the mix. However, I've heard, as well as have had a family member try and explain the extreme emotional disassociation benzo's have on a person's demeanor. I found it hard enough to process my feelings just with what substances I was on but couldn't imagine how incredibly difficult it would be with klonopin like he was on. Plus, the side effects having a chance to give you seizures and stop your heart etc while trying to stop taking them, I have nothing but respect for anyone whos gone through that but mostly who've kicked any addiction. It takes a lot of willpower that sadly, some people don't realize they have. Hopefully you're doing well with anything you've had to or want to overcome. Take care 🙂
This is so beautiful to see! I could watch it over and over again. The revelation of the goodness and love of the Holy Spirit towards him pierced right to his heart…and it’s all over his face and emotions…😭 God bless you Jordan as God continues to use you for his glory!
I love this guy, one because he's so clearly very intelligent and secondly because he cares so much about the worlds pain. But sometimes he's too clever for his own good, think too much and you end up being the opposite of being what you preach. Take it easy Jordan, your too important to lose.

@Sigmund Archleider People will want to fight...but when the Bible says "Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life", that means that other religions are basically false. False to the bone. Respect other religions all you want, but Jesus Christ is the the only way to go.
YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"
Yeah but the other religions that acknowledge Jesus don’t acknowledge His divinity. That He is the Son of God, God in the flesh. That He is the messiah.
He needed a quiet place away from people, away from books, away from his anchors. He needed to let go and just focus on Jesus. "Into your hands, I deliver(ed) my spirit."
So many of these comments are as touching as this video because each of us who believe have had to step over the fence from unbelief to belief and for me even after 42 years it stirs a deep emotion within myself as I recall the moment I saw myself as a sinner in need of a savior! He is a good, good Father 🥰
Why not call the savior Santa Claus or Roger Rabit and just believe that he payed the price of our sins? Can you explain why you exactly choose to believe in the story of Jesus? A story that is hard to prove like most historical evidence. What made you go "Ok so I now choose Jesus and he is out saviour"? I think this is a question that I need real answer to.
@TH-cam TruthLife When we seek Him earnestly, thru prayer and Bible study, He will come to y personally and show you Him, Himself. We have to want a Savior, in sincerity, but to do that, we need to begin to understand why we need a Savior. He will show you the Way. Once you know Jesus Christ, you will never unknow Him. Faith also comes from Him. Step into the ring some, and maybe allow Him to prove Himself to you. We cant, we're just believing people. I'll pray for you too.
@@youtubetruthlife4750 There must be a first cause. What started everything. Things in life boil down to belief. Science deals with unravelling reality, with facts. Until science gets to, 'where did the first energy come from'. Religion also runs out of steam. But they believe God made the first energy, and created. But the actual reality of God, his essence before creating, well, Religion will never know this. We can only analyse what this mystery created. That's us, and the cosmos. We can play around in that space, with our little arguments and beliefs about our reality. We are resultant, we emerged, we are contrived. I will say this though. We are all (including the first CAUSE) seeking exquisite LOVE.
I think we need a Saviour and are reborn once we sacrifice all our being to fully serve the truth regardless of the consequences. When we die to ourselves we are spiritually born. At least for me. I never Consciously seen my physical sins in one moment. Rather over a period of time things that served the flesh became worthless and there more and more of the figure of christ revealed. The idea of sacrifice the greed of the flesh will reveal more of the meaning of life. And also christ. Does that make sense? @ashleyhunt6022
The Holy Spirit is shocking him and calling him, so he is emotional...that is Christ’s power. May he find the place where he can just let go and rest in the faith belief. We cannot try to understand the love and sheer power of Christ and his forgiveness and love using the worlds science and knowledge. There is a leap of faith, a surrender needed and he is at the cusp here. God bless him.
Professor Jordan Peterson helped me with my personal and intectual development i think he has a great soul with an amazing mind that had to endure bad times. We need more scientists with an open hearth to the spiritualism like him.
He’s not a drug addict @Tom Giannini. It’s sick that you use that to diminish him, because this discussion about faith is threatening to you. He is an extraordinarily genius man who has gone through some horrible struggles, and God has used these experiences to bring him to a deeper place. I would tell you to try to keep up, but there’s no way your shallow and dismissive self would even hold the door for a man like Dr. Peterson.
@Tom Giannini - serious adult discussions don’t feature ad hominems, aspersion-casting, or faulty/hasty generalizations. As a healthcare provider I can assure you that many people become dependent upon prescription medications; this is not a reflection on their character nor their abilities. The fact that you think this is even relevant to bring up in the context of this discussion is embarrassingly stupid.
It’s strange that the idea that terrifies him - that the narrative and the objective actually touch - I did not understand UNTIL I believed. It is what convinces me daily that the Word is true and everything else is a distortion of that reality.
Its so terrifying to fully believe in Jesus. In a manner of speaking hes right to believe in a God that would come to us in the flesh through Jesus Christ to die for my sins, your sins simply because he loves us it is terrifying but also glorious as well this is love thats incomprehensible. Before the creation of the universe he knew every single one of our names.

I remember listening to this for the first time on the bus on my way back home from university. It was when I realized Jordan is one of the most honest intelectuals today because he is humble enough to truly consider ideas that challenge his comprehension of reality. Personally, I am lightyears away from that. I admire him
you know what really is the most extreme terrefying; realizing your life is actually real. people (myself included) live like it is a dream, this realisation is too hard to realize.
I am so grateful for @Jordan Peterson. I have been struggling for quite some time with doubting my religion and christianity, but at the same time an inability to distance myself from it mentally and emotionally. It has caused me deep pain and discomfort to try and make sense of it all and to know what is true and what is not. To see other people, brilliant people like Peterson, going through the same, gives me some comfort.
Yea feels the same. I question myself why I should believe in something that I dont believe in. Theres a big dilemma. Maybe you have to fake it to make it? But thats not the way I operate.
"The difference between Christ and all other mythological gods that were born in the solstice is that Christ actually existed". -- Olavo de Carvalho, brazillian philosopher
Game on. Because of this, Christianity is a tainted religion, as all throughout the bible-belt, believers are worshipping pictures, and statues of a man. If you don't know why that's sinful, then you don't know the meaning of the terms and are better off leaving language to those who are actually literate, while you go argue pollute your mind with arguments about who's going to be the next *American Idol.* Need I be clearer than this? Shall I start counting to ten?
@@ladymercy5275 I think Christianity can be helpful if one doesn't take it literally and reads it as an archetypical story in which Jesus Christ actually *is* the truth. Seeking the truth at all costs is the way to go. And the truth is much different than what we've all been taught to believe. Problem is, I don't think most Christians do this, they tend to just conform to dogmatic beliefs and take the story literally.
I think he's more a believer than the vast majority of Christians and probably a large number of priests. So I think we should ease off the proselytizing. It really isn't necessary
I believed in Christ as a teenager, but now that I am older and have "wrestled with God" in many areas of life, I became terrified of the deep love of an Almighty Diety that would sacrifice his son for my deprived selfish self. It is overwhelming that Christ allowed himself to take on the sin of the world. One cannot fathom what that means. The deplorable sins and extreme guilt and the narsistic iniquity of all people of all ages was what Christ became on the cross for all mankind that day. That love is unfathomable, and it is found nowhere else. That is why Christ said, "I am the way, the truth and the life"
Christ is Risen, Jordan. It happened. It’s real. St. Peter said “We have not believed cleverly devised fables but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.” Having beheld the Resurrection of Christ, let us adore the Holy Lord Jesus.
That is fine and dandy, but what this man needs to do is come to terms with his sinfulness by repenting of the things he has done that violated God's Holy commands, recognize that he, like the rest of the world are sinner. Just like the thief did on the cross, who was next to Jesus. That thief repented and when he died Jesus made sure he was in paradise with Him. This man needs to place his trust in the sacrifice Jesus made 2,000 years ago. Keep in mind that even Satan believes in Jesus. Many believe in Jesus but that is a big difference between believing in Jesus and trusting Him. Belief is an intellectual understanding, but trusting is allow Jesus to do the work for you. This is exactly why Jesus came here 2,000 years ago.
@@kimkerchner2032 Wow. I am some how even more concerned about people believing in religion, more then I have ever been. It has become apparent that religion may tear society apart if we aren't careful. Why did someone have to right a book to control people hundreds of years ago? Religion has caused too many wars to count and it needs to stop now. People are literally killing themselves because they believe if they prey enough that God will save them, so they refuse to take medication. Then obviously die. If they don't they will think it worked and tell everybody that God is real etc. Forgetting that other people who didn't believe in God that didn't take medication sometimes survived too.
@@kimkerchner2032 "The Fear of God is the beginning of all wisdom" like seriously? This is the biggest red flag EVER. Like how do you read this and think... hmm this seems totally fine and reasonable good advice. Fearing God is the sign of utter stupidity. The bible says God is good, yet his actions speak evil. Therefore the bible disproves itself with its own writing.
@@lachlanB323 Lachian I see you are a thinker and you have a number of questions. I also see that you have a little trouble with the usage of the words then and than. Also the word (prey) was misused. The proper spelling is pray. Prey has a different meaning. But I am not here to correct your spelling or teach you the proper usage of words. So if you don't have a good handle on some easy spelling words, there is a great chance you don't have a good handle on other things. Especially those that pertain to spiritual things, God, and Religion. You instantly loose credibity when you butcher the English language as you have. This is my first tip in helping you and answering some of your questions. Secondly, please don't confuse Religion with God and Godly things. Religion is man's way of reaching God. God's way of reaching man was thru His only Son Jesus Christ who is God the Son. I am personally not religious. I hate religion, because religion will confuse man and you are correct to a point about religion. There are many different religions so they all can't be right. They can all be wrong or one religion or faith can be the correct one, but finding it is the key. Jesus Christ said, I am the truth and the light and way. Nobody gets to the Father (God) but thru me. So, either Jesus was a liar, a nut or actually God the Son. How you respond to Him will determine where you spend eternity. Jesus will either be your Savior or your Jailer. He allows you to decide. Thirdly, I would get off the talking point about religion causing war. If it was not for the Christians many years ago, defending the faith, you might be writing this in Islam. Using a talking point without backing it up is like telling me you graduated first in your class and we all know that is not true. Fourth, you are also confusing many of the fake tv faith healers and other charlatans out there with others who are solid Christians who read the bible and can back it up with sound Scripture verses. I do agree with you that many people have been scammed by these wicked faith healers and religious scammers, but not all are in this same boat. Without the spiritual discernment that it takes it is understandable that you see them all the same. That is where you are derailed once again. Not all are scammers and fakes. Many are, but not all are. Hope to hear back, and I hope I have not offended you with my criticism of your poor spelling and being so ill informed. Sometimes truth is like a punch in the face and you just got one. Now, I am happy to pick you up and share some truth with you. All the best. Please keep in touch you do have some good talking points that need corrected.
Praying for him. You know when you know and you can’t deny Him when you do. Faith doesn’t come from just the book, it comes from that relationship and walk where you see his fingerprints everywhere and you know it is Him.
If faith is a process to finding truth then how do I differentiate your belief and the belief that white people are better than black people are true? The answer is faith is not a process towards truth and you believe a collective delusion.

I think Jordan is counting the cost of following Christ and for him It is very serious because he strives to live out his beliefs, not just espouse them as most of us are prone to do.

@@DoesNotInhale all false religion focuses on man's effort and his good deeds to achieve salvation .
But the gospel of Jesus Christ is the only one that focuses only on Jesus Christ for salvation , it's not what you have done but what Jesus has done for you on the cross , Jesus righteous deeds is what covers us and makes us acceptable to God and we are saved from the coming wrath of God which is upon all who sins .
Now such truths are revealed but the perishing ones considers it foolishness , but God has said that the foolishness of God is greater than man's wisdom and God's weakness greater than man's . strength .

One of the huge reasons why I’m always a Tolkien fan, his work was greatly impacted by his faith. You compare the structure of The Bible with his structure of The Simarillion and it’s overwhelmingly similar.
"the Word" was the term purposely used by the writer of the Gospel of John to describe Jesus. It was an intentional and direct comparison of the Platonic idea of the "Logos" (which means word in greek.). The logos in greek thought was the abstract ideal from which all things are made. In fact, John 1 even says that "all things were made through him, and nothing was made that was made without him."

Going through the wheel of atheism into Buddhism into a general amorphous monotheism led to Christ in such a gradual way it was like God opening this flower in my soul. Don’t worry, just know you’re not alone in this. we’re all stumbling through our faith like children in a pond. Even Peter walked on water with the one living God and a strong wind was enough to make him start sinking. Christ is merciful and patient in a way we could never comprehend.
@@CreepaHunter thank you so much for your comment.
it has been used by God to "call me back" to restoration.. i've been actually, stumbling in faith these past days..
thank you for reminding that it is natural to stumble.. (i'm often too hard on myself when i do).. and for pointing me back to who God is: Merciful and Patient.
thank you for the encouragement

He is on a scary journey to the ultimate truth. It is a truly awesome experience.
Jordan has more fear of God, who is not a Christian, than most Christians I know who have almost non-existent respect, awe, wonder, fear towards the Almighty. May Christ lead Jordan to the right path.
you could say he's a real Christian. And to be honest, there really isn't many of them. most are sheep, the goal is to strive to be a Shepard. Yet belief has people simply remaining sheep
Jordan is respectful open-minded agnostic.
@Jesse R most christians also ignore how a lot of the bible canon is plagiarised from other holy books or mythology. Noah's ark.. does the flood of Gilgamesh ring a bell?? Its all the same esoteric stories told centuries but people keep rebranding it. Even till this day brand new religions are being made based off older religions.
@Jesse R it’s arrogant to have a belief? What are you on lol. Free speech. Don’t embarrass yourself
@@leanne8271 No he does have a point to certain extent, I grew up and still interact with people from different religions but mostly Muslims and Christians and the sheer confidence everyone has that thier religion is the right one always facinates me.
Watching a brilliant mind like that edge closer and closer to believing, and articulate it on the fly as he speaks, is incredibly moving and something we'll probably never see again in our lifetime on a public stage.
Agreed 👍- also-.Its plain to see from my Believer's perspective that he's on the cusp of accepting Jesus Christ as savior ( and Creator) of the world. The LAST thing the Devil wants! - that's why he's emotional and struggling. He'll be a very STRONG advocate for Christ!! Answer the call, doctor! We can't wait to welcome you into the Kingdom of God 🙏!!!
He believes. His talking as a scholar about other myths and mythical figures. If he didn’t believe he wouldn’t even cry. I think when he says I can’t fully believe he means he can’t believe that Christ is real like he thinks it’s so cool and great he can’t believe it’s actually real, like you won a lambo and ur like man how is this real life? Something like this
@@milliesaysokboomer something incomparably greater than a lambo! Haha
I spent a majority of my youth pretending to be someone I wasn’t. I wanted so desperately to be cool, to be noticed, to be liked..I didn’t like who was staring back at me in the MIRROR.
I LIED to sound interesting, I LIED to appear funny, I LIED to get anyone to notice me.
I wanted GIRLS to notice me...I was constantly chasing that relationship with ANYONE..
Since 2nd grade, constantly seeking the opposite sex.
In 6th grade, I began to think about sex..alot
I began to “self satisfy” any chance I got.
Looking back at the habits I developed in that mindset...it makes me hang my head in shame.
My Grandparents divorced, my parents divorced..it only made sense I was seeking that “intimacy”...any intimacy would do the job..
Habits I developed in my youth, overflowed and poured over into my Adulthood..almost cost me my marriage, my relationship with my children..it almost cost me my LIFE..

YOU ARE READING THIS RIGHT HERE AND NOW IN THIS MOMENT, because YOU made a choice, to watch this video and scroll through the comments, like you have always done.
But this time is different, because THIS is the moment someone brought you the good word 🙏🏽
That there is a God that sits on high, and he is waiting for you.
He is waiting for you to lift up the past you’ve let drive your present, up to him!
He is waiting for you to pull away from the habitual sin you have been living in!
He is waiting for you to shout his name in praise on your darkest nights!
He is waiting for you to stop asking the questions that don’t matter, and dig into his word!
Waiting for you to take hold of the fact he sent his son to die the death that YOU AND I DESERVE!!
Waiting for you to dig into his word for your redemption!
The redemption that awaits the vessel developed in love, the vessel with the royal blood of heaven flowing through its veins!
This is for you!! The one who couldn’t stare in the mirror, the one who died!! This is for the one that HAS NO OTHER PLACE TO GO..BECAUSE THE LORD OUR GOD FOLLOWS US INTO THE DEEPEST PLACES, THE DARKEST PLACES, JUST TO TELL US HOW MUCH HE LOVES US, AND HAS PLANS TO PROSPER YOU AND TO NEVER HURT YOU!!
LOOK INTO THE MIRROR!! LOOK DEEP INTO YOUR OWN EYES!! PREACH TO YOURSELF!! TALK TO YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER AND ACCESS THE PATH THAT LEADS TO HIS GLORY, TO HIS WILL!!
Look into the mirror, acknowledging that you have FOUND GOD, and begin your WALK WITH GOD..by developing a relationship with his son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ 🕊🕊🕊
LOOK INTO THE MIRROR...
And start the habit of seeing YOURSELF, the way GOD SEES YOU..
Created in his image, beautifully made, for MEANING AND PURPOSE

oh you better believe you are watching God raise up this man in particular in front of the entire world “for such a time as this”
I love how Jordan views this as appropriately monumental as it should be viewed. To know the truth of who God is and what He wants of you is awe-inspiring and should leave all of us in tears. He has a fear and respect for God that so many Christians don't even have, and it's really beautiful to see.
I fully believe. It makes me feel very happy. It makes me know I can accomplish anything I want. It makes me feel responsible to make my grandchildren believe so they too can lead a happy meaningful life. It turned me from a mean son of a gun to an individual with hope for his family and meaning to life. Love and believe in our God and this feeling will be granted to you.
Hallelujah and amen my brother!! Same here 💗
You’re so close, Jordan. He lives and He loves you.
Yes!
Ahhh, but facts are stubborn things.
He's already following Logos.
@@ndjarnag You are walking talking flesh and bones who is self conscious and is able to love and hate...
It takes more faith to believe you come from a rock then from a supernatural creator who is above your comprehesion, above your understanding and knowledge you have.

@@Star-bp5jj Science doesnt care about your feelings or purpose. Dont be a snowflake.
Peterson's tears reveal perhaps his sense of mourning over the his realization at a soul level of the bankruptcy of man's wisdom in light of absolute truth.
yeah thats really good. !
Well said
Just say no to benzodiazepines...
And say YES to Atheism!
Christ is the only way to salvation.
Fantastic! Absolute truth is Jesus.
I’m a newer Christian that has been a closeted Christian for over a year but I became official a few days ago. The way I’ve gone through the Bible I’ve figured out everything on my own with no prior experience around a church or Christian’s. Should be interesting to see how it goes as the only Christian in my house at the age of 15.
God bless you brother
Praise the Lord, you are a living proof of first John that the Holy Spirit will teach us we don’t need any man. The word of God is alive it is true and with the guidance of God himself you walk in the light of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah. Much love.
Pray all goes well, if you haven't done it already please do, Ask God for his Holy Spirit.
Luke 11:13 - If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"
- Jesus Christ the son of God.
You can accept Christianity without the church, sometimes you need to see it with your own eyes and heart, the church often muddies the waters and puts you off.
I wonder why you chose to believe the religion of your culture and not any of the thousands that have existed over time. It must be a coincidence
That's a beautiful sentence.... I have been scared out of my mind thinking about Jesus... I have also seen the beauty of his sacrifice for us all.....
I’ve only felt His presence once. I was singing in St Michael’s cathedral in Hamburg for the Sounds of Hope tour. It was 1983, we were done singing and the girl I was with was crying like me. She said “Isn’t it wonderful?” “Yes” I replied. The thing I remember is I felt He was so glad to see us. Like Aslan with Lucy. It made anything bad go away. He really loves us and the love was amazing. Hard to put into words.
Then why he sends us to hell? Why create a person he knows will end up there? And please don't throw me the free will argument as I'm sick of it.
@@ancientgear7192 Do you even know what hell is, how the church fathers described it?

Me to amen.
Have you watched the complete video, if not it is well with the two hours of so it takes. Jonathan is an outstanding man of God and I so appreciate his laugh and perspective on the Holy Spirit.

In reality u just feel pleasure or possitive emotion because your subjective view of god is represented in this video lol but yeah amen
@Nathan Jessen yeah i agree maybe i dont know
Jordan literally admitting to us that he doesn’t believe. “It’s too terrifying to believe.” Actually, it’s not, Jordan. I believe it and it has changed my life forever. I highly recommended you try it.
Listening to Peterson transform from an atheist/agnostic to a believer in at least gla higher power and the power of the narrative of Christ, it paved the path for me to begin to break free of agnosticism. It was a first step and boy have I come a long way now as an actual Christian
I was confused why Peterson was crying because he doesn't need to cry.
Like, it's hard to explain, but Peterson talks about God like he is something to be feared, no, he is something to be loved.
At least that's what I know as.
God can be feared, yes, but mainly he is love, hope, acceptance, grace, kindness, calm, etc.
You don't have to fear the lord, just love him.
Her should go find a Deliverance minister and watch him cast out supernatural evil devils from a hapless person using his status as a John 3:16 pardoned Christian and God's perfect King James Bible and all this butt hurt atheism/nihilism goes away. Believing in God is not a choice it's a matter of SURVIVAL understanding the REALITY we live in. Stop whining about mean people and instead CONFRONT REALITY and FIND OUT what's true as outlined above.
This is exactly how I feel about this topic. The deeper I go the more I'm separated from society and the so called reality that has been pulled over our eyes. I still cannot wrap my head around the complex simplicity
Could you elaborate and share some more info? I am a Christian but not a devout one and I think about the end a lot
Don't think about the end think about the begginging because you can rest in Christ's strength knowing that you will then understand and believe him until the end of your days.
💯 🙏 💥
@M.G.C thankyou for speaking on my behalf (Andreas here) I don't feel it's necessary for the reality is you cannot trust the mind for its deceiving, however, the answers you seek are clearly stated in the Holy Bible, and that experience alone will lead all to truth if they seek it from within the heart. God bless you all on your journey 🙏😊
Sing. Or better sing with other people. There you'll find it.
I'm amazed at my own belief and I don't understand it. That's the definition of faith.
Yeah I know. After you stop believing, your brain will hurt for some time, because you've never used it before.
@@MrSaemichlaus There's really no need to insult believers lol. Have some respect for other peoples beliefs.
@@MrSaemichlaus Are you talking about when you stop believing in nothing? Maybe you’ll actually flick that on switch someday.
@@YoshiBlad3 To the uneducated, magic is a necessary ingredient for explaining away the complexity of the real world.
@@MrSaemichlaus I've educated myself pretty well. But perhaps you should reconsider your morality more than your education, because if anything, your attitude towards people who differ from you is pretty toxic.
Believe what you will, but I've examined the evidence I've been presented, and how I've been raised, and this is me. No words of some random stranger on the internet are gonna change that. And most likely, it goes both ways. If I were you, I'd just consider trying not to look like a crude and rather inconsiderate jerk in the future.
I like vulnerable Peterson. I wish he was always this vulnerable
he's afraid of disappointment
I also get these visions of Christ and it's just unbelievable overwhelming. Like bathing in pure love.
I also thought of Jesus as a Frequency that you can tap into. And Jesus is constantly waiting, inviting you. Knowing. Forgiving. It's just beautiful. It's real.
When you have enough intelligence to you know there’s more to the story than you can ever fully comprehend, it is very frightening. "Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known" (1 Corinthians 13:12)
Wisdom my sister.
Gorgeous verse, my friend. Thanks for including that.
Jordan is seeing the radical nature of sainthood. It means total devotion. Very hard to fathom and come to grips with.
And total devotion, or sainthood, means the resistance of all temptation. Which is downright impossible? Maybe, maybe not. I think its possible. But darned difficult to say the least.
@@seanthomasmusic Definitely impossible.
The wheel of time spins on sin. If you thought what happened in the "Garden of Eden" was a mistake, you weren't paying attention. That's not a curse on humanity, per se, it's the _nature of physical reality._ Put simpler, you wouldn't notice that you were conscious at all, if you weren't tempted by something you know you should resist. That's where the conscious part comes in, and a soul wakes up to find itself a living being.
Of course, this would also mean it's true that we didn't need God or any of it to write that story, because if it's based on truth and reality than it could just be self-evidently obvious to any cave-dwelling philosopher with a keen sense of awareness and enough time spent dwelling on self reflection. So, if wondering if _that's_ true shakes the foundation of your faith, then you never had any to begin with.
Would it bother you if humans weren't the only stars in this show?
@@ladymercy5275Wrong, it is possible and Jesus showed us the way. Pre-Christ it was impossible, post Christ it is possible. You don’t know what are you are talking about, but it is good to be curious and wrestle with such questions, I suppose.
@@Josh-tf9cr How many actually succeed? We hear of myths and legends, of great saints, but they are the exception, not the rule. Look at your average Christian. Look at yourself. Nobody reflects Christ. Just because Jordan cried means nothing. He has a history of drug addiction and depression, of course that man has cried before.
Well Saints perform miracles and that sort of thing does scare people think why Jesus intimidated people turning water to wine walking on water etc. If some guy you knew did that would it not freak you out a bit? The crucifixion was like a witch hunt because his powers scared people.
Praying for you. God is Knocking on your door and I pray that you let him in.
Your amazing!
HE LIVES SIR... AND HE LIVES THROUGH YOU... GOD BLESS YOU SIR IN CHRIST NAME AMEN.
I Love You So MUCH SIR... I CALL YOU BLESSED IN CHRIST NAME AMEN.
I always find it very touching when Jordan Peterson cries. He's so genuine and relatable and I greatly admire him for that. Not very many men (or women for that matter) would let themselves genuinely cry on camera. I hope he gets all the praise he deserves for this
Crying is always seen as a weakness, or something that makes others uncomfortable. But when it comes to Jesus Christ, your tears are well deserved because you have an idea of how much He loves us.
Men can't cry because women will at best lose respect for them, at worst, and quite commonly for married men, seek his financial ruin.
@@codycox2685 At best, women will find it touching. My husband cries and I love that about him. I have no interest in seeking his financial ruin, and the first time he cried in front of me, I gained respect for him. There are women like the ones you have described, but I just want to make sure you understand that not all women are like that.
@@MayBlake_Channel I do understand that not all are like that. But I and every other man would like you to understand that all women have the ability to be like that. And unlike men, they have the courts on their side ready to ensure they are terrifyingly successful at it
@@codycox2685 That's fair enough! I can sympathize with you on that :)
This is the first time that I see him so vulnerable. And I dont blame him.
Tears of faith are not vulnerability, they are just weakness leaving ones body.
Departure of Pride and the arrival of Humility.
One of the best things about Dr. Peterson is his humility
High-doses of serotoninergics taken regularly will do that to a (weak) person, and he was never really a strong one. He knows it. The spontaneous bouts of emotion, his inability to sleep often, and of course the withdrawal symptoms are all derivative of the medication he's been taking for years, and he knows it. So, you deserve the truth. It's the painful kind, obviously, in this case. But if you're really interested, you can see some _wild_ spiritual resonance anytime you want, if you find a local dealer. Look for the hippies, and ask them for some "burning bush," they'll get your narrative overlapping with reality faster than you can finish a joint.
@@ladymercy5275 there will always be a naturalistic explanation, as there should be. Multiple alternative explanations are always best to explore as critical thinkers. However, one of the things that is slowly leading me to Christ is all the UNnatural things I’ve heard happen from millions of people. They can sometimes be dismissed as hallucinations, but some stories (well documented) are just too hard to give naturalistic explanations. Please reply if you want to hear a few. God bless!
We need your prayers 🙏, because of some misunderstanding and disputes in my family it seems like we are separating, I just can't describe what we are going through. Since I was born I grew up in a very happy joint family, and now seeing this is really hard. Please remember us in your prayers. Guys I just want to live with my whole Happy family again 🙏
I’ve felt the presence of Jesus many times Sometimes I’ve wondered if I was in so much trouble just so I’d know Jesus was with me The first time I was 17 and protected a high school girl I didn’t know from being abducted and killed The next time I’d been married less than a week and Jesus gave me a quick steady hand to fight off 2 trying to abduct and kill my wife (The Tampa cop told me the quick hand saved her but I knew Jesus was in control of my gun as I stared at evil) Then on the operating table with the same wife beside me I knew Jesus was with me The nurse said she’d never seen that surgeon get on his knees and pray over a patient before surgery
I’m supposed to be God fearing but Jesus has been carrying me my whole life
When you accept Christ into your life , you cannot help but cry.
I concur
Amen, and this guy is smart, i have a high iq 147,,,i'm betting his is almost 160, he's right at the cusp, God bless Jordan Peterson, he's right there
When I received Christ I rejoiced with a joy I'd never known before. 🥳
@@steenystuff1075 i got saved on halloween,1997 very powerful, yes, crying quite a bit, i felt a little fear of God too, Jordan is right there, he so intelligent, makes me want to just push him into it, i mean, i know he feels the Lord out there, but i'm convinced hes right there i'm highly intelligent, i don't think on quite his level, i'm betting he's 150-155iq, mine is 147iq, he's brilliant, most m.d. drs have to score at least 120 to get into med school, so i imagine for most smart people it's hard to admit they need to lose control and give it to God, but i'm gonna pray for Jordan

I have a friend who was an atheist for many years of her life. I remember talking to her about God’s forgiveness years ago, and I remember her saying: “Doesn’t that sound too good to be true?” I think that puts this whole feeling well. It’s so good that our mind says no way! No way the all knowing, all powerful creator of the universe knows me personally! No way does he love me knowing what I’ve done. No way would he give his own life so that I could be with him….
My friend came to Christ yesterday. I cried when I found out. I know the feeling of knowing you’re not enough, and being accepted anyway. Only God would do that.

That's the Holy Spirit, Dr. Peterson.

This was the most uplifting thing I have seen in a very long time. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
This is not a view to be discounted. Saying 'he is just wrong' may be very wrong.

Being newly sober, especially after being numb and deaf to emotions for so long then finally beginning to feel again is a pretty profound thing to witness or have happen to you. Glad to see Dr. P processing on a real level of honesty like this and being vulnerable in conversation again. He's truly a scholar to the highest level.
What type of substances were you on?
@@natashapotatau4314 my addiction was to opiates and occasionally throwing a few benzo's into the mix. However, I've heard, as well as have had a family member try and explain the extreme emotional disassociation benzo's have on a person's demeanor. I found it hard enough to process my feelings just with what substances I was on but couldn't imagine how incredibly difficult it would be with klonopin like he was on. Plus, the side effects having a chance to give you seizures and stop your heart etc while trying to stop taking them, I have nothing but respect for anyone whos gone through that but mostly who've kicked any addiction. It takes a lot of willpower that sadly, some people don't realize they have. Hopefully you're doing well with anything you've had to or want to overcome. Take care 🙂
It really is terrifying but it's wonderful at the same time.
This is so beautiful to see!
I could watch it over and over again.
The revelation of the goodness and love of the Holy Spirit towards him pierced right to his heart…and it’s all over his face and emotions…😭
God bless you Jordan as God continues to use you for his glory!
I love this guy, one because he's so clearly very intelligent and secondly because he cares so much about the worlds pain. But sometimes he's too clever for his own good, think too much and you end up being the opposite of being what you preach. Take it easy Jordan, your too important to lose.

So many of these comments are as touching as this video because each of us who believe have had to step over the fence from unbelief to belief and for me even after 42 years it stirs a deep emotion within myself as I recall the moment I saw myself as a sinner in need of a savior! He is a good, good Father 🥰
Why not call the savior Santa Claus or Roger Rabit and just believe that he payed the price of our sins? Can you explain why you exactly choose to believe in the story of Jesus? A story that is hard to prove like most historical evidence. What made you go "Ok so I now choose Jesus and he is out saviour"?
I think this is a question that I need real answer to.
@TH-cam TruthLife When we seek Him earnestly, thru prayer and Bible study, He will come to y personally and show you Him, Himself. We have to want a Savior, in sincerity, but to do that, we need to begin to understand why we need a Savior. He will show you the Way. Once you know Jesus Christ, you will never unknow Him. Faith also comes from Him. Step into the ring some, and maybe allow Him to prove Himself to you. We cant, we're just believing people. I'll pray for you too.
@@youtubetruthlife4750 There must be a first cause. What started everything. Things in life boil down to belief. Science deals with unravelling reality, with facts. Until science gets to, 'where did the first energy come from'. Religion also runs out of steam. But they believe God made the first energy, and created. But the actual reality of God, his essence before creating, well, Religion will never know this. We can only analyse what this mystery created. That's us, and the cosmos. We can play around in that space, with our little arguments and beliefs about our reality. We are resultant, we emerged, we are contrived. I will say this though. We are all (including the first CAUSE) seeking exquisite LOVE.
I think we need a Saviour and are reborn once we sacrifice all our being to fully serve the truth regardless of the consequences.
When we die to ourselves we are spiritually born. At least for me. I never Consciously seen my physical sins in one moment. Rather over a period of time things that served the flesh became worthless and there more and more of the figure of christ revealed.
The idea of sacrifice the greed of the flesh will reveal more of the meaning of life. And also christ. Does that make sense? @ashleyhunt6022
The Holy Spirit is shocking him and calling him, so he is emotional...that is Christ’s power. May he find the place where he can just let go and rest in the faith belief. We cannot try to understand the love and sheer power of Christ and his forgiveness and love using the worlds science and knowledge. There is a leap of faith, a surrender needed and he is at the cusp here. God bless him.
Ed very well stated, lets pray for Jordan.
Praise the Lord. "Every knee will bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord."
Why is it terrifying? Jesus saved me from the pit of darkness
I really appreciate his emotions... he usually cry when he think in himself "damn, i connected these thoughts and they make so much sense now"...
Professor Jordan Peterson helped me with my personal and intectual development i think he has a great soul with an amazing mind that had to endure bad times. We need more scientists with an open hearth to the spiritualism like him.
Precisely
he is revealing Jesus reality I can hardly find within the walls of our modern church buildings!!
Because many of them in there now are either pretenders, pacifiers or abusers. Churches of ‘’nicey-nice‘ is not TRUTH.
He’s a drug addict. Try to keep up.
He’s not a drug addict @Tom Giannini. It’s sick that you use that to diminish him, because this discussion about faith is threatening to you. He is an extraordinarily genius man who has gone through some horrible struggles, and God has used these experiences to bring him to a deeper place. I would tell you to try to keep up, but there’s no way your shallow and dismissive self would even hold the door for a man like Dr. Peterson.
@@sarahr3747 Grow up. He’s admitted to being addicted to benzodiazepines. He admitted to being an addict. Let the adults talk.
@Tom Giannini - serious adult discussions don’t feature ad hominems, aspersion-casting, or faulty/hasty generalizations. As a healthcare provider I can assure you that many people become dependent upon prescription medications; this is not a reflection on their character nor their abilities. The fact that you think this is even relevant to bring up in the context of this discussion is embarrassingly stupid.
It’s strange that the idea that terrifies him - that the narrative and the objective actually touch - I did not understand UNTIL I believed. It is what convinces me daily that the Word is true and everything else is a distortion of that reality.
As a cradle Catholic Jordan Peterson will be SAVED but only as through Fire 🔥.
"The narrative and the objective can actually touch". The ultimate human truth. Well said!
The sound of one hand clapping. How can they both be separate and together?
@@waldroj01 Temporary perspective?
Its so terrifying to fully believe in Jesus. In a manner of speaking hes right to believe in a God that would come to us in the flesh through Jesus Christ to die for my sins, your sins simply because he loves us it is terrifying but also glorious as well this is love thats incomprehensible. Before the creation of the universe he knew every single one of our names.
Yap, it takes some balls... History is full of martyrs who gave life for beliving in Christ
@@lawmaker22 Yep Amen but morely to fully comprehend God's everlasting love can be terrifying for the unbeliever.
@@Benfiester jordan is on the path many people have been through. Wait until he realizes Catholic Church really is the Church God established. Now thats the moment when you really crap your pants. GK Chesterton wrote a book about that scary process. When God leads you to Truth, you are not happy you found out the Truth, you are terryfied because he put a responsobility on your shoulders
@@lawmaker22 Yep exactly. Personally I'm not Catholic in my faith but as a pastor's son myself I've seen my dad break through alot of people's skeptical brick walls and they break down crying but after comes overwhelming happiness. I had a personal experience myself seeing one of my best friends growing up break after I helped him see the truth.
@@lawmaker22 It's not about religion. It is about faith and finding Jesus in your life. The church can only do so much and the catholic church definitly isn't from God.
Just listening to this man makes your brain go into overdrive, you begin to understand stuff you never even thought of before.
Jordan you and your lovely wife were blessed by God.
I remember listening to this for the first time on the bus on my way back home from university. It was when I realized Jordan is one of the most honest intelectuals today because he is humble enough to truly consider ideas that challenge his comprehension of reality. Personally, I am lightyears away from that. I admire him
He's knocking at the door brother JUST LET HIM IN!
@Jesse R Dude, you First! You're the one out here spamming all the Christian discussion threads lol....
I’m giggling, because it’s evident! Jesus is knocking! Let Him in! 🙂❤️
@Jesse R why don’t you seek Him yourself and find out?
@cloud glove oh yes! 😌🙏🏻
For real, God is good!
you know what really is the most extreme terrefying; realizing your life is actually real. people (myself included) live like it is a dream, this realisation is too hard to realize.
What is real
Dude I’m here thinking the same thing
Pray he gets there.
That's exactly the point. This is why fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.
The narrative and the objective touched the moment God was born a man.
Amen!
only problem is man lies. ALOT. its ingrained in our dna. at the very core of our brain
@@kt46kk89 But we don't have to. And we can be honest. That's the point.
I am so grateful for @Jordan Peterson. I have been struggling for quite some time with doubting my religion and christianity, but at the same time an inability to distance myself from it mentally and emotionally. It has caused me deep pain and discomfort to try and make sense of it all and to know what is true and what is not. To see other people, brilliant people like Peterson, going through the same, gives me some comfort.
Yea feels the same. I question myself why I should believe in something that I dont believe in. Theres a big dilemma. Maybe you have to fake it to make it? But thats not the way I operate.
@@Fm-fz8dp Islam does not teach compassion, it teach eye for an eye. I dont think Islam has anything to do with truth.
@@youtubetruthlife4750 You shouldn't. The bible clearly isn't the preserved word of God. Doesn't mean there aren't some good things there but c'mon.
John 20:29
Then Jesus told him, “Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
Jesus said: "I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture." John 10:9
"The difference between Christ and all other mythological gods that were born in the solstice is that Christ actually existed". -- Olavo de Carvalho, brazillian philosopher
Game on.
Because of this, Christianity is a tainted religion, as all throughout the bible-belt, believers are worshipping pictures, and statues of a man. If you don't know why that's sinful, then you don't know the meaning of the terms and are better off leaving language to those who are actually literate, while you go argue pollute your mind with arguments about who's going to be the next *American Idol.*
Need I be clearer than this? Shall I start counting to ten?
@@ladymercy5275 i just cited an author lol
Lol. That’s the dumbest logic ever please don’t procreate
@@YisraelPrince too late
@@ladymercy5275 I think Christianity can be helpful if one doesn't take it literally and reads it as an archetypical story in which Jesus Christ actually *is* the truth. Seeking the truth at all costs is the way to go. And the truth is much different than what we've all been taught to believe. Problem is, I don't think most Christians do this, they tend to just conform to dogmatic beliefs and take the story literally.
Christ is Risen - Alleluia! i hope Jordan one day lets his barriers down and fully embraces Christ
I think he's more a believer than the vast majority of Christians and probably a large number of priests. So I think we should ease off the proselytizing. It really isn't necessary
There is a humility in his heart which the holy spirit has given him Jesus is living ❤
I believed in Christ as a teenager, but now that I am older and have "wrestled with God" in many areas of life, I became terrified of the deep love of an Almighty Diety that would sacrifice his son for my deprived selfish self. It is overwhelming that Christ allowed himself to take on the sin of the world. One cannot fathom what that means. The deplorable sins and extreme guilt and the narsistic iniquity of all people of all ages was what Christ became on the cross for all mankind that day. That love is unfathomable, and it is found nowhere else. That is why Christ said, "I am the way, the truth and the life"
Christ is Risen, Jordan. It happened. It’s real. St. Peter said “We have not believed cleverly devised fables but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.”
Having beheld the Resurrection of Christ, let us adore the Holy Lord Jesus.
No, it was a story made up to make it easier to explain to children the difference between right and wrong, good and bad.
Peterson is one of the best role models. God bless him❤️💯
Christ isn't a myth, we will all know someday, something, somewhere.
Yes from big sinner to full believer is a tough process, it's a tough pill to swallow takes a long time to accept
I pray this beautiful soul of a man accepts Jesus Christ into his heart.
That is fine and dandy, but what this man needs to do is come to terms with his sinfulness by repenting of the things he has done that violated God's Holy commands, recognize that he, like the rest of the world are sinner. Just like the thief did on the cross, who was next to Jesus. That thief repented and when he died Jesus made sure he was in paradise with Him. This man needs to place his trust in the sacrifice Jesus made 2,000 years ago. Keep in mind that even Satan believes in Jesus. Many believe in Jesus but that is a big difference between believing in Jesus and trusting Him. Belief is an intellectual understanding, but trusting is allow Jesus to do the work for you. This is exactly why Jesus came here 2,000 years ago.
@@kimkerchner2032 Wow. I am some how even more concerned about people believing in religion, more then I have ever been. It has become apparent that religion may tear society apart if we aren't careful. Why did someone have to right a book to control people hundreds of years ago? Religion has caused too many wars to count and it needs to stop now. People are literally killing themselves because they believe if they prey enough that God will save them, so they refuse to take medication. Then obviously die. If they don't they will think it worked and tell everybody that God is real etc. Forgetting that other people who didn't believe in God that didn't take medication sometimes survived too.
@@kimkerchner2032 "The Fear of God is the beginning of all wisdom" like seriously? This is the biggest red flag EVER. Like how do you read this and think... hmm this seems totally fine and reasonable good advice. Fearing God is the sign of utter stupidity. The bible says God is good, yet his actions speak evil. Therefore the bible disproves itself with its own writing.
@@kimkerchner2032 Luckily religion is on the decline!
@@lachlanB323 Lachian I see you are a thinker and you have a number of questions. I also see that you have a little trouble with the usage of the words then and than. Also the word (prey) was misused. The proper spelling is pray. Prey has a different meaning. But I am not here to correct your spelling or teach you the proper usage of words. So if you don't have a good handle on some easy spelling words, there is a great chance you don't have a good handle on other things. Especially those that pertain to spiritual things, God, and Religion.
You instantly loose credibity when you butcher the English language as you have. This is my first tip in helping you and answering some of your questions.
Secondly, please don't confuse Religion with God and Godly things. Religion is man's way of reaching God. God's way of reaching man was thru His only Son Jesus Christ who is God the Son. I am personally not religious. I hate religion, because religion will confuse man and you are correct to a point about religion. There are many different religions so they all can't be right. They can all be wrong or one religion or faith can be the correct one, but finding it is the key. Jesus Christ said, I am the truth and the light and way. Nobody gets to the Father (God) but thru me. So, either Jesus was a liar, a nut or actually God the Son. How you respond to Him will determine where you spend eternity. Jesus will either be your Savior or your Jailer. He allows you to decide.
Thirdly, I would get off the talking point about religion causing war. If it was not for the Christians many years ago, defending the faith, you might be writing this in Islam. Using a talking point without backing it up is like telling me you graduated first in your class and we all know that is not true.
Fourth, you are also confusing many of the fake tv faith healers and other charlatans out there with others who are solid Christians who read the bible and can back it up with sound Scripture verses. I do agree with you that many people have been scammed by these wicked faith healers and religious scammers, but not all are in this same boat. Without the spiritual discernment that it takes it is understandable that you see them all the same. That is where you are derailed once again. Not all are scammers and fakes. Many are, but not all are.
Hope to hear back, and I hope I have not offended you with my criticism of your poor spelling and being so ill informed. Sometimes truth is like a punch in the face and you just got one. Now, I am happy to pick you up and share some truth with you.
All the best. Please keep in touch you do have some good talking points that need corrected.
When the narrative and the objective touch, That’s the moment when light overcomes darkness and darkness did not overcome the light.

Praying for him. You know when you know and you can’t deny Him when you do. Faith doesn’t come from just the book, it comes from that relationship and walk where you see his fingerprints everywhere and you know it is Him.
If faith is a process to finding truth then how do I differentiate your belief and the belief that white people are better than black people are true? The answer is faith is not a process towards truth and you believe a collective delusion.
