In this speech at the Franciscan University of Steubenville, Jordan shared recent thoughts on ethics, scripture, and the problem of perception. He asked the audience to reflect on how we remember great stories (but seem to instantly forget bad ones), why Western culture ended up being a book (instead of-say-a sickle), and whether the West truly is a “phallogocentric" culture.
All of this, Jordan says, tied to a broader possibility-perhaps his “most radical claim"-that, as we navigate the value structures we call reality, a lot of so-called “navigational” problems are really veiled ethical ones.

Dr Peterson do you have views on current Philippine elections/politics?? We are so down right now. Our people are so misinformed, blinded by the current frontrunner and son of former dictator of our country. Sorry for being out of nowhere, but I don't know where to hear some wisdom about it right now without the bias of parties. I've been sharing some of what I learned from reading 12 rules and from your lectures by social media interactions to the best of my abilities on my community.
Baby birch - Joanna Newsome
I'm reading the new testament, a very good books 😎👍
Shaky faith is a choice. Why would you make it? It is written: MARK 9: 24 "Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief."
When was this recorded?
It was a privilege to host you on our campus! Thank you for coming to speak to our students, faculty, and staff!
😎👍
Just looked you up and you sound like a great university, and I'm not even religious. Hope this gets you some more recognition!
Say hi to Ezra for me!
Well done!
Hurrah Steubenville!! Thank you for bringing this lovely man to speak.
I’m hoping and praying that somehow someone truly moved by the Spirit dealt with and conversed with Dr. Peterson while he was there.
He’s aching for the ability to make the leap of faith. His yearning is palpable.
I need to thank you JP for bringing me to Christ. I found you when I was a hardened atheist, and miserable. To fast forward a lot of years, I just got baptized in Jesus’ name last Sunday 🕊💗 thank you! God bless you all
Amazing! The best is yet to come!
The Lord be with you my friend. I was raised Christian but have always been a "doubting Thomas"... my story is not so different from yours. God seems to be using Dr. JP to bring great healing and peace to the souls of the modern world.
Praise, God. You will be blessed and highly favored. Keep reading the Bible and learning. God is good. All the time.
@@sueabreu2265 Really? The god who murders children in order to punish the parents of those children is a good god? Seriously?
@@Solupschizo there was only one Christian and he died on the cross
Its amazing seeing a future historical thinker while he's still alive. What comes after him that's thanks to him will in no doubt be overwhelmingly positive for all of us.
Agreed. His thoughts will ripple through history.
@John Fischer His opinion on free speech and how thinking can only occur if free speech is allowed might be one of those. I don't think I've heard anyone else say that before him.
@John Fischer you want us to explain to you how he is brilliant and original? Maybe it would be easier if you laid out an argument why he isnt. Tell us why J. Peterson is not a genius.
@@castiron2932 he didn't attack Jordan
Fully Agree
Praise the Lord God Almighty!. I magnify your name!. Yahweh I give you all the glory for my life!. Forgive my sins and my unconfessed sins Lord!. Lord I want more of y0u and less of me!. I thank y0u f0r y0ur pr0tecti0n!. I am truly blessed and highly favored I sit in heavenly places and I am the son of a mighty King!. I l0ve y0u Jesus!. Lord I pray for those wh0 don't know you in an intimate way that they will humble themselves and come to know you on bending knees asking for their forgiveness!. Father I bind the spirit of pride!. I release love, kindness, patience, humility in the name 0f Jesus!. I followed my heart and I am glad I did. I l0st my wife 2 years ag0 due t0 the pandemic and I was about giving up, knowing God has brought me this far was for a purpose and I kept on looking on to him. My destiny helper was sent t0 me the year my wife died. The moment I was about giving up, I was introduced to a business by a man I met at a seminar I went to at Florida. This was not my first time hearing of such business but I took the risk Investin 1000 USD and it was worth it information@markhanfarmer., COM , 4 weeks later I kept on getting earnings and I started using the m0ney for Gods work. I am very popular in Mississippi. Doing G0ds work gives me J0y and peace in my mind. I am here to motivate y0u t0 never give up even though the situation seems s0 t0ugh,. God has pr0mised his children and he will surely d0 what he pr0mised.
I'm glad you are doing well and inspired!
Hey aren't you the guy that killed that girl that you met on Craigslist?
This is a phishing scam.
I’m not very religious, simply due to not being raised very religious, however I have almost all traditional Christian values and I’m starting to read the Bible cover to cover, super excited
Wow awesome for you! So you never had christmas reunions? Btw I'm a catholic!
You can read the Bible through multiple times and see something new and exciting each time!
You may not get this joke now, but you'll appreciate it in the future.
Have fun with the beginning of first chronicals lmao.
Enjoy your read, praying for you :)
Good luck to you, it changed my life deeply. I wish you the best on the endeavor
@@BlueEagle-yk6dg Is that the one with the endless number of names?
Jordan's lectures on the Bible have made me rethink everything in the best way possible. Thank you Jordan.
Yes! They are so powerful and impactful.
I want him to continue those more than anything else
My favorite part is when he broke down God’s first words in which they were “Truthful Speech”.
With that understanding in play, Freedom of Speech takes on a whole new meaning to me, from mankind’s standpoint.
Mankind doesn’t not know “truthful speech”, thus mankind has to speak more and often to get the truthful speech that is communicative and actionable speech.
Only then do people move in the correct direction, everything else becomes confusing noise by those speaking in tongues to keep others silenced.
I hope that didn’t come off confusing but his take God’s First Words just opened my mind on what The Founding Fathers did. I never linked importance of Freedom of Speech until then.
@@brianbridges8124 Personally, Dr. Peterson has introduced me to the importance of viewing the Bible from a psychological and archetypal perspective. Not only from that perspective per se, but from that perspective as well. It’s made scriptures such as religious texts less awkward to talk about in conversation, and it really points out how people in the world are far more similar than they are different. It has also helped me understand myself in that I can look back at hard times I’ve been through and realize how it may have affected me and my psyche, both for the better and for the worse. I hope this helps
@@jacobwilkinson6112 I agree with you, observing the Bible from the psychological and archetypes of the Bible has helped me to approach people with a more neutral stance that allows me to move around their walls to engage them, without them being hostile.
My mom read the entire Bible several times to me as a child. Then i read it myself. I just assumed every Christian read the Bible.
To my utter shock, almost every Christian I've ever met in my entire adult life - has never read the Bible.
It's always my mission to get Christians to actually read the book and not just sheep through their life.
Only 20 percent of Americans say they've read the entire Bible at least once. :(
My life before reading the entire Bible in a short time and previously calling myself a Christian are drastically different. Growing up in church I had a completely different "God" than the one I met doing so.
It is a great concern to me that many leaders of that good book, must adheres to politically correct narratives in their public procamatiins, and often politically correct interpretations often muslead people who are basing thi faith and moral lives on what they hear from a politically correct filter instead of the horses mouth. . God forgive me for calling His Word, the horses mouth, btw.
A lot or people just listen to it in the Church, but this is not sufficient. You need to read the Bible yourself outside the church to be able to even come to any actual understand the Christ Lord Jesus of Nazareth.
Quite incredible speech. One of the greatest minds in our lifetime. Canada’s university’s loss has been the worlds gain. That is if you are listening with an open mind. Thank you Mr. Peterson
100% sixth time watching it. It's his most powerful yet, in my view.
@@modernexistence4206 I was introduced to Jordan this winter during the truckers protest n canaduh when i craved common sense to offset the absolute stupidity of govt behavior here...can't remember if it was joe rogan or russell brand that i first heard him on...but i am eternally grateful to have learned about him n continue to listen n learn/relearn. Great men like him n James Topp r sadly created/forged thru tribulation...n that just kinda sucks...yet i hate to think where humanity would really be without them/their kind!?!!
He reminds me of Marcus Aurelius. His wisdom was about the greatest the world had seen at the time. But lacking a sound knowledge of the Bible, even his perspective was extremely limited. (The foolishness of God is greater than the greatest wisdom of the world)
@@HanstheTraffer Interesting u bring marcus aurelius up...wasn't it during his time there was the Antonine Plague that soldiers brought back...n upwards of 10million people died(?) right on parallel with clause swabitt plan to eliminate 1/2 the population by...2023 {excited utterance on stage at WEF in Davos...caught on tape so it's out there now!?!!
I’m crying he’s so awesome
I saw this live and it blew my mind. The thing that kept running through my head the entire time listening to him was "I can't believe I'm listening to Jordan Peterson." This man truly is larger than life, most of the doctors and professors in the room looked like incoming freshman furiously taking notes listening to him speak.
We are blessed to listen to Dr. Peterson who will go down as one of the most influential thinkers in the West.
I would say not just the West, but indeed worldwide, Gabriel! I'm from Singapore and his books have been on the main bestsellers display of the bookstore I frequent for a long while now.
Philippines barely know him. Im here drifting away
@Honestly, I love JBP, he was the person who opened me to critical thinking, and I hold him to super high regard, but their are a solid handful of thinkers on his level, if you wanted to see one of the most brilliant series of conversations ever, I would highly recommended watching the Jordan Peterson vs Sam Harris ‘Pangburn’ debates, truly incredible on both of their parts.
They both held differing viewpoints and both helped mould each other to think in ways they had never thought off live on stage.
Pardon in advance because I will not hold back here, and I’ll come to why that is.
Peterson is as much a ’great thinker’ as someone like Tony Robbins. He has emerged as a popular figure because of the market demand for a self-help guru nested between liberal and conservative streams in the era just after the Trump election, when a lot of people felt disoriented in the wake. He rose to claim that ’mediator point’, taking the mantle, and was able to sustain its use by speaking to the lowest common denominators of his audience, filling the demand at large. As far as his ’thinking’ goes there is nothing novel or of great depth there, no commentary that isn’t rehashed or of a lesser quality of something already existing. His ’intellectual’ legacy is chiefly two self-help books and a book professing his admiration of Jung. He can most charitably be viewed as a less developed version of thinkers like Northrop Frye or Marshall McLuhan, lacking their depth of erudition and insight, by miles.
All of these ecstatic reviews have the tendency to soar into borderline embarassing levels of hyberbole that simply put cannot be merited. Peterson, as a thinker, (and not a self-help guru) can at most charitably be conceived as a thinker for people who -simply put- don’t read books.
With that said, yes, he might have changed your life. Yes, you could have been inspired by him in a myriad of ways.
But that all mostly comes down to his form, and not his content. His form is that of a self-help thinker reaching a vast array of people that previously didn’t have a good enough market alternative. The objective content of his is banal, but effective, like ’clean your room’ and ’take a shower’, but do in no way warrant the kind of profundity that is sometimes erroneusly ascribed to him. These are common self-help concepts that are conveyed in multitude of ways.
For what he is, he is an effective self-help guru.
But beyond that, we shouldn’t fool ourselves and ascribe to him what simply isn’t there.
Yes, what I’m saying might seem hostile, or not ’in vogue’, but that’s of no importance to me. Accuracy is of importance.
@@annaeklund5723 you missed all the research conducted and published by him and his team in his research lab which, if you were being charitable, would probably count as 'intellectual' contribution. Also, his reputation and work talks for itself. He's held in such high regard by so many for a reason, that's the reality so it could be that you need to think about it differently rather than trying to mould reality to suit the way you think.
I started reading the Bible thanks to your lectures, and when I found my faith my depression went away just like that, and now I think to myself ”what a blessing this day is” every time I go outside. Dr Peterson, you saved my life. God bless you.
The Bible: high standards, reason for forgiveness and trying one's best, a record of progressive understanding influenced by culture, but also influencing culture - insight into humanity and the infinite.
I listened to this whole video and have no idea what he was saying. So many times he’s come back to the same point but using different fancy words.
The new heart God gives his children and the continual transformation from our old self into the new is truly miraculous...I will forever explain it to others as that...from the day I gave myself to God is has felt like one constant, never ending miracle. Congrats on not having to deal with depression anymore, the valleys of life feel wildly different when your walking with God!
@@Gaudine What’s more likely? That he’s bullshitting everyone stitching “fancy words” together to construct an incoherent message, and everyone pretends to understand it? Or that you have gaps in your knowledge about the things he’s talking about?
@@dafunkmonster Almost everyone at some point in their life is interested in religion, if only for the sake of trying to understand what it's all about. JP has the ability To apply metaphysical principles to concepts that we already know; and it sheds light on them, and also helps us connects the dots between thoughts and concepts. There is no shortage of mystery in religious Concepts.
I started reading the bible 2 years ago, but kinda gave up after the old testament, I think now it's the time to pick it up again
A great idea. The best is yet to come.
John is great. Also the Song of Solomon. Which you'll understand if you scan it quick 😉😎
I'm having a hard time with the old testament too. I think I'm going to restart with Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Do a full in depth breakdown and study of them, and then go back and start at the beginning again
The Bible in a Year podcast makes it easy to read the whole bible. It's here on TH-cam with audio and text as well as anywhere you get podcasts.
@@introverdant thank you for that will check it out!
This lecture was amazing. It's like 5 years worth of lectures condensed into just the necessary words. Nietzsche would be proud!
even as an agnostic there is no way I could disprove that Western worldview is inherently Judaeo-Christian.
But i could also say that in the last few years there is a gradual shift to PowerIsAllThatMatter that is why social credit system and censorship and state monitoring of its citizens is becoming more real. Gradually Christian Liberal thought tempered by the renaissance and enlightenment of Greek influence is deteriorating and being replaced by Confucian + Pragmatic Nationalism of CCP.
As an Asian familiar with both... not really sure which we really want... they have their merits and downsides.
Christian world view believes in common people and CCP believes in leaders.... and i really dont know... both seems right depending if either common people are corrupt - CCP or if leaders are corrupt - go for Christianity. But in places like Canada - where Trudeau is definitely corrupt, Christian world view is the only way. At least with CCP, I have some respect of it. China is a complicated beast to handle and citizens have inherent distrust and trying to dupe each other (see the 2008 milk scandal or Evergrande real estate scandal, etc). A strong ethical righteous leader that has zero tolerance to corruption is really what is needed.
Nietsche didn't believe.
@@Lighthousepreserve but he didn't dissaproved only pointed out the fall and flaws of modern organized religion, as they strayed far from the old mindset and practice of old. If anything he argues agaisn't nilism as the god of science is simply a god made out of plastic, simply emptiness.
@@Lighthousepreserve I was just referring to his ambition to write in ten sentences what others write in a book!
@@Lighthousepreserve Jordan doesnt really believe either
Closing in on 5M subs. How remarkable is that. We are blessed to be alive today. When times are perilous great men rise.
We are even more "lucky" (or blessed) to have a civilization able to foster genius such a this. I just want my children to learn things from people like Jordan, Jocko, Bret, Heather, Eric there are so many.
The great man is the psycho speaking on the video? 😂 😂 😂 😂... The only beef diet guy... 😂 😂 😂 I really hope he does not commit suicide, before he realises how sick are his ideas and he restores the damage he has done. And by the way, Jesus Christ and the book he is talking about were created by the Roman Flavian dynasty... But as he said he has to investigate... The man is a bad joke😂 😂 😂 😂... But I understand money is good so let's get the big group on our side..
What you mean is when Heros are needed the cabal provide them to fool the people again
@@seang2424 you could not put it better... The man is a psycho full of manipulation...
Surprised it took this long. I imagine TH-cam has its finger on the scale like Twitter has proven to in the past weeks.
Thank you for uploading all these lectures and discussions for free. I have been stuck in China throughout the pandemic and listening to these keeps me sane and educated simultaneously.
You're welcome and glad to hear it.
God bless and keep you and your loved ones 🙏🙏
may the Lord keep a hedge about you 🙏
Listening to Dr. Jordan Peterson is like listening to a very beautiful song.
@@TheOpheltree that is an excellent way to describe listen to Peterson!
I love how genuine Peterson is as a speaker. He has his basic ideas coming in yet speaks spontaneously without notes
I am so glad that I have had an opportunity to follow Peterson from the beginning of his original struggle with University. I have learned so much by his teaching and Thorough explanations of his thought process. And now renewing my mind of the truth that is in the historical books of the Bible with meaning.
May God continue to bless you and your family with good health and safety as you continue reaching out to the world to make it a better place.
Amen. May God reveal Himself to the ones who seek Him. The Bible is the book of life!
Amen. Many Blessings to Mr. Peterson for opening our eyes and enriching minds
Saw this when I woke up. Figured I'd watch a couple minutes before making breakfast. 54 minutes later, I'm still in bed, haven't showered, haven't eaten. As always, one can never just watch a few minutes of a Dr. Peterson lecture; they're just too damn interesting and profoundly deep.
When I saw this video come up I was like, "Aw, shit, this looks more important than what I'm doing right now."
I laughed cos I imagined him busting in on you and shouting “get up! Have a shower! Clean your damn room! Eat! Carry your cross”
But yeah I’ve also done the same before
Lol I was about to watch a movie when I spotted this.
I’m here, so we know who won!
😂🤣
Same here and J.P.s videos have done that to me many times.
If you think Jordan Peterson is deep, you should try listening to John Macarthur, Charles Stanley, Jack Hibbs. Or just plain reading the bible. Talk about depth
That's it, I'm convinced. I will FINALLY read the Bible. I've always been aware of its importance, but it had never had this much importance to ME. Now I feel like I MUST read it.
I like your name
Do it man! I’ve been reading it almost daily since 2013, and it’s crazy how many new things pop up to me each time I read it. Godspeed man!
@@SearchforKevinWestleyonYT Likewise!
The book of judges, Samuel and kings are like game of thrones. People messing up their lives real bad.
Consider starting with Proverbs, Psalms and gospel of John.
12:48 “We do believe …as believers …” Dr. Peterson has become not less scared but actually braver with time…not that long ago I think he would have edited himself out of that collective group of believers. A transcendent, perhaps unconscious, moment of truth. Brilliant.
He started to believe recently I noticed this right away as the holy spirit pointed this out immediately
Good faith discussions and talks about the Bible, ethics and morals, digging down to the roots of even human understanding, are so fascinating. Thank God for these, so refreshing and meaningful. We get that much closer to the truth every time we do this
Good ethics means you shouldn't propagate Contradictions or LIES..
There are no good morals or ethics in the Bible that can't be found in a secular framework, but plenty of atrocities to be found by your god that secular morality and ethics do not support.
It's amazing what a monster your god is, murdering a generation of children in order to make a point about how great he thinks he is.
@@KorAllRBare Let's see some contradictions, then.
Genesis has.. A claimed "ALL KNOWING intelligence" refer to a body of Atoms making up H2o which is in an energised state " Energised by Light" before a Stars demise for the Atoms to exist in the first place.
The contradictions being that Atoms need a Star "LIGHT" first to have existed and then end with it's Demise thus creating the Atoms to exist in the first place.
And yet in Genesis we have an ocean or water's of the deep existing before the referred body of ICE has seen the light of day, Which suggests that all knowing not only is clueless to the fact that all atoms Originate from the Demise of Stars, Stars that BTW provide Light, that all knowing intelligence seems to have been oblivious to the fact that waters of the deep or oceans of the deep require a source of light to excite Solid Ice into a state of liquid water..
Now lets see how intelligent you are or how dumb you are by ignoring basic physics, physics that you can observe every winter as the days and the time of light shortens, and with that, how water returns to a state before it's seen the light of day, and yet genesis clearly contradicts actual physical facts, facts that an all knowing intelligence should KNOW!..
@@lemon__snicker5973 What did Judas do with his blood money?
I love how he says we can’t focus on the facts, there’s too many to keep track of.
Thank God all i have to do is love God with all my strength and mind and heart and soul and He takes over and does it all for me! Praise God, thank you Jesus!
Jennifer, i don't know you, i do personally love that name however. I think it goes back to that old Donovan song "Jennifer Juniper" and the ambiguity it contained. I was always rooting for him, that she loved him too, unfortunately, i think divining true love from a flower is a lost art! :)
But to what you were talking about, one consistent thing Dr. Peterson has done is to value, and not in a condescending way, is the value the (not so common anymore) house wife as an example. Your station in life is not what makes you important. Perhaps you are there because that is exactly where you need to be. What you do, regardless of your means, regardless of peer pressure, regardless of financial insecurity, what you gift to another by maintaining a family, that is what makes you exceptional.
BTW, Jennifer, when my father tried to force my mother to take a job beyond tending home, my siblings and i went on strike from school, until she was allowed to return home. I just can't tell you how hollow it felt when we would come back, but mother was not there to welcome us with her warmth. Am i spoiled? By todays standards, definitely! But i am happy to say that my nephew, his family have that same privilege of mom being at home, even though she is very smart, very capable, she wants to be with her boys. She is not sitting on the couch eating chocolates all day though, she still has the job of home schooling them! And keeping those boys occupied... that is an endeavor! :)
Yes, thank you Jesus Christ 🙌 🙏🏻 ❤
Hallelujah!
AMEN
Amen
I was raised in church and have read the Bible my whole life of 53 plus years-and it has to be supernatural because I learn something new all the time. It never gets old or useless-quite the opposite. Thank you Dr Peterson!
Agreed. There’s nothing as rich and I haven’t found it boring yet after almost that many years either.
Did you read the part that you should kill your wife if you figure out she is not a virgin?
Absolutely! I couldn’t agree more!
@@gaylamyer how long is it? Cos if it’s too long I’ve already lost interest
I agree. We ended up in a church where we memorized scriptures and I value it now. In finance, there are so many sound timeless principles I use daily
Thank you. I was at a dark point in my life and you have helped me evaluate many things along with renew and revisit my stance with God.
Truly one of the most thought provoking lectures that I have heard in years! Outstanding!
I have had this thought before. My mother and I would discuss the reason for organized religion, her for, me against. Anyone can be ethical without religion, I would say. She would say but who would determine the ethics? I miss our talks. Thank you, for allowing me to visit her through your words.
Morality dictated by majority of creatures called humans can not really create a solid moral law that should not be broken for it's own sake. I would love it to be so but I can't rationalize it for myself.
We all collectively determine ethics and its always changing over time, as more understanding of reality evolves.
Does it make any more sense to let a group of people from centuries ago determine our ethics than to trust our thought process and empathy to all that is living
@@user-hh5hs3zr5b I dont think we actually do let them determine. I look at it like were standing on the shoulders of giants. We are building from where they were, learning and improving. Christian morality in medieval time looks vastly different than christian morality currently. And morality in general, not just christian or any religious morality in particular, they all look vastly different from how their ancestors did it a thousand years ago.
@@sstrick47 that's not thanks to Christianity but thanks to the European enlightenment movements in the 18th century that were pretty much anti Christianity and pro Greek philosophy. That's what our western values are built on. European, Greek philosophy, not desert fairytales. And thank "god" it is that way!
Doctor Peterson went through some rough times. It's great to see that he's through that.
Now he's back to doing what he loves most and that is thinking deep thoughts and actually coming up with discernable answers. He's having fun and I'm grateful that he's sharing it with us.
I don't know how he did it, but he came back and he's hitting harder, more aggressively, and more regularly than he was before his forced haitus and convalescence. I'm not sure what being touched by God looks like but I have to imagine it's something like him
@@dgw3650 kinda like when Moses came back 2 egypt---hells a fire!!!
@@dgw3650 I think you are on to something. I suspect that something that was theoretical in his head for many years, has taken root in his heart. But the funny thing, it would not surprise me at all if he couldn't point to the specific moment when it happened. But i also suspect that it has a lot to do with the loves and prayers from his wife.
He is still going through a tough time, he is still recovering. Still praying for him.
@@MatthewSmith-cp3hu Still praying for him as well. Something that is funny though, i see him pause, i see him try to adapt. He is an evolutionary psychologist after all -and while i am not a literalist on evolution, i appreciate the way Dr Peterson uses it! Why? Because he does not use it to denounce God, he uses it in the way that is actually constructive -a way of trying to explain a lot of things that we do not yet understand but are trying to get a grasp on, and honestly do not know how best to study yet.
Curiously I have experienced the most instances of synchronicities when reading the Bible. It has to be a conduit to God. Love this lecture examining this miraculous book. Thanks Dr. Peterson. You always inspire me to look deeper.
"Synchronicities" An interesting fad term. It does however bespeak of the realm of the spirit. The realm is so vehemently denied these days. Jordan Peterson alludes to it a lot but cannot confidently speak of it because he has to deal with tangible facts.
Serendipitous moments tend to occur when having spiritual growth. All religions attempt to discuss the invisible aspects of reality. While they all hold truths, they also have faults...
"we just haven't done better than that" this was the line that tied up all the questions I had during this speech. There is humility and room for growth in that sentence, and I think it sums up how far humans have to go to understand how we work.
What an remarkable human being. The process of thought here is astounding. I'm so glad you do this Dr Peterson,. It's teaching me to think through things differently and is bearing much good fruit. May God continue to bless you and keep you...Lord knows we (the world) needs more like you.
I concur
Agreed. Jordan has changed my life for the better and I feel better for the people around me because People around me benefit from the fruits of my labor

@@cnote3598 It's not worshipping exactly, it is more like deep, deep, deeeeeep gratitude!
I can understand these people, I myself was saved from suicidal nihilistic depression by JP lectures.
What you are asking is for these people to not show gratitude for someone who saved their lives.
"You gotta relax dude" sounds like belittering these people's past suffering and their strength to get up from that.
@@cnote3598 oh boy.
@@cnote3598 I appreciate you trying to save these people's tears, but next time, explain why they should "relax" first instead of just telling them to do. I agree that this Bible talk makes me look at Jordan with a different eye, and I really don't wanna hear this talk because all I saw from Religions is DEATH/MISERY and CONFUSION to say the least...
This is awesome. I love you Peterson family! You've brought such light into this world.. thank you! ⳩
This was so beautifully deep and insightful. Thank you Mr Peterson! 🙏🏻💞
Mr. Peterson, you've had a major influence in my life for the last 6+ years. I've read both your books. Antidote to Chaos I've read twice and now I'm skimming it regularly. I also went and ordered a free Bible. I am inspired by your passion and authenticity, and you speak truth to power. Thank you for everything you've ever done. ❤️
@@ricabel321 yeah I know. I got one free actually online. Search "free bible". Thank you though for taking the time to help. I appreciate that.
@@oregondude9411 I like physical books too.
''e risale english'' Have a look. It's a mysterious piece of work...
He's got a third book titled "Maps of meaning." It's by far his best work.
@@mathewhill5556 all his books are great. Dense, but I'm a good way. It feels like every sentence is meant to be there and cannot be just glossed over.
I can honestly say reading the Bible was the catalyst for a life change so dramatic, that many who watched it became Christian as well. The book is so powerful that it took a homeless decades long heroin addict/alcoholic like me, and in three years turned me into a sober business owner. It is truly extraordinary, mystical, and beautiful in a way you can only understand by trying to live it. It is in the becoming a true disciple of Christ Jesus that we have the power to change not only ourselves, but also the world around us. I am going to be honest it is not easy an easy path, but He provides all you need to persevere through it all. Whether you know it or not Jesus loves you, died for you, and is just waiting for you to allow him into your heart through His Holy Spirit🙌🙏💒
if you read the bible and become christian you need help
I love you brother. Thanks for sharing this inspiring comment. God is good!
Your comment made my day. May angels guide you my brother
Amen! Thank you for sharing the goodness and power of our Lord and Savior.
I´m glad that you bettered your life because of the bible, but i´m also hoping that you only take a small portion of it to your heart. There´s no reason to be as bigotted against homosexuals, women and non-believers as the bible wants you to be :)
I absolutely love this man.
One of the greatest mins of my lifetime.
Always a privilege to hear him speak.
Imma be honest I really don't understand this but I am grateful to have watched it and I will keep coming back to it till I get it.
Got it yet??
Enjoy the path
Thankyou for showing me the depth of the bible, my mother tried to make me read it for so long. You've made her very happy.
For anyone wondering how to think about the Bible in the modern context:
- I'd recommend following the "Paul VanderKlay" channel, or Jonathan Pageau/ John Verveake...
It's a good place to start
Concentrate on the red parts of the New Testament to show you they are exactly the opposite of every Republican belief
@@gulanhem9495 depends on your purpose for reading it. And what parts you are reading. My guess is you haven’t managed to get through the whole thing. But merely reading it will not make it exciting. It’s YOU that makes it exciting.
@gulam hen - the Song of Solomon is hilarious. You'll understand the joke if you scan it quick 😉😎
@@gulanhem9495 Not gonna lie, I skipped the Old testament to read the New Testament and it's been pretty amusing reading about Jesus Calling out hyprocrites, flipping tables on said hypocrite, the bretryals and death of his deciples and how Jesus isn't a hyprocrit. From both a historic and cultural standpoint it's quite fun how the existence of a man drastically shaped Western society
Perfect timing. I've been drifting away from the Church and the Bible as of late, due to my career (as an applied scientists to add to the irony) and all the other rational justifications I used to convinced myself that i didnt have time for...Thanks Doc.
Same, but still at the end of the day its still the only truth 🙏 God be with us and bless us. We just got to live for the day, and let God's work be done for today
Read The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis 🙏🏼
I drifted away from the bible because I'm too intelligent to believe in these man made fairytales. Jesus's life is an astrological allegory and there's no way around it
@@LancerFFS well did u finish this video at least . He makes a strong point. And as time goes on we as humans are always going to come to new ideas, or conclusions. But, as he says who knows everything, no point to draw conclusions.
@@LancerFFS yeah you're right... going thru life thinking there's no ultimate standard for anything makes so much sense. Goofball
As a Catholic convert, seeing Dr. Peterson's journey is a wonderful thing. God bless him!
When I think about the literal millions of souls brought to or brought back to Christ by his influence... nothing short of miraculous numbers there... let's just say I get really hyped at the idea of a St. Peterson one day. I hope and pray that's where this all goes.
@@Solupschizo Amen!
@@TheGuiltsOfUs Getting rid of Christ(ianity) is the history of modernity itself.
@@TheGuiltsOfUs The Pope today is corrupt. Time to worship without a "leader".
So you believe he has spiritual powers?
Dr. Peterson, You are truly a voice crying out in the wilderness of this age. Thank you.
I have been back and forth with the Bible on so many things and for so many different reasons my whole life and Jordan peterson has me looking for my Bible again. It's amazing that this book can still be read in more depth. We are lucky to have a person like Jordan to push our intellect and understanding of things.
So many better books,ones that don't short circuit critical thinking.
@@milesteg8627 That's a pretty shallow interpretation- you make it sound as if the Bible is a cognito hazard. Plenty of people have read the Bible and come away with all sorts of braindead takes, but that is part of what it means to be fallible and human. CS Lewis believed the Bible but his critical thinking skills were quite sharp indeed.
@@milesteg8627 you should probably critically analyse the hubris of that statement
@@whythre sensitive much? To each their own, but Jordan is peddling to the rubes.
@@whythre How is Bible anything special though ?
As a history/philosophy double major who is the only Christian in most of my classes, i appreciate Jordan’s implication of the importance of the Bible.
As someone of a similar background I was thinking that one of the only other potential "foundations" besides the Bible would be Plato/Aristotle, but I think that is only really applicable in an academic sense. The influence of the Bible extends much further into culture/society itself.
Hang in there though, from my experience your University will probably do its best to secularize/minimize the importance of Christian thought, but they can never really get rid of it. I found it enjoyable to do some reading on my own (Augustine, Aquinas etc.) just to remind myself of that original core which can now feel neglected.
Praying that you remain steadfast in the faith through the power of the Holy Spirit
Can you recommend a platform other than Facebook where I can share videos please!
@@Epiousios18 plato and Aristotle made me consider God. Aquinas made be believe in Him. Bill Lane Craig made me want to evangelize others.
Please consider switching to Franciscan university to get proper training in your field. They have financial help. This is where this talk was held.
That was really well said As well watching Jordan express as he walks through his perception is an honor.
So great to have this man back! Thank you for all you do, Jordan! You’re not Jesus to me, but you do make me a better person by saying things I may not want to hear, but need to hear.
So happy to see this man looking healthy and giving lectures again :)
Not only healthy, but dapper too! Wish I could dress as smartly as him.
''e risale english'' Have a look. It's a mysterious piece of work...
Please make a Biblical series on a New Testament. I am sure there is wealth and treasure to be found for healing and doing the right thing. You have the right axe to dig up the treasure. Thank you.
Yes this needs to happen
I'm not religious and I would very much enjoy that.
Sorry... too many commands to take in immigrants and help the poor.
@@cathyosbourne6986 Individuals, not states. The question is not political- the question is how many poor immigrants have you brought into your home? I certainly don't trust the government to use my money to help hurting people better than I can.
This is the greatest suggestion for Dr. Peterson for so many reasons and I pray he considers it.
Dear Mr Peterson. Very frequently when I listen to your lectures, I have moments of feeling profoundly enlightened…. which give me flashbacks to experiences being high in my younger years. The difference is that now I am high on your profound insight into the world and the nature of our existence. Thank you for your ongoing work.
Dr.
I am sure you have heard this before but you are incredibly inspiring. You've shown me there are answers to the questions of life, relationships, spirituality and sanity. Thank you. I cannot wait until I can see you in person. You've grounded me at the age of 56 and I am grateful.
As I listen to the book of Ezekiel....my name sake.... the alert for this video pops up and further solidifies my conviction that my path continues to be aligned accordingly....peace and blessings.
Honestly, my favorites are Deuteronomy, Exodus, and Leviticus, where we get to hear about all the tasty genocide that your god demands from his followers.
The biblical series was the best transition for me from the pragmatic world of astrophysics to the world of religion and ethics and meaning and scientific understanding of all of those. filling the gaps of knowledge perfectly also adding some behavioral and evolutionary biology to the equation.
If you find the time, the Quran is pretty interesting as a well.
This is what the internet is allowing to form, people that know a little about everything plus their online hobby that matches Dr. Peterson's.
@@jerrymiyahtylerious2847 Yes, the Qur'an is amazing. There is this tafsir of the Qur'an, called Risale-i Nur. The Words. To find it write: ''e risale english'' and it pops up at the top of your search.
Lol wow. I hope you don't procreate. Religion has destroyed this planet
@@thebelmont1995 that just isn't very true and suggest you haven't looked for the many points of alignment or acknowledged that astrophysics is a far cry from complete and unalterable truth (science always changes, advancing, regressing, that's built into it). For example: Bible -> sudden creation of the universe. Science for many centuries -> Universe was the same and always was the same. Now -> Big Bang.
There is for sure a series of learning processes as a precondition to understand, place inside oneself the words of this amazing teacher !! My soul understands my brain is on its way!!❤️🤗
A remarkable man, with a unique blend of human vulnerability and titanic intellect. He makes you want to ask questions, and even shows you how you can find many of the deep answers within yourself. His linguistic fluency and his professional experience with very complex psychological subjects, make him an unusually compelling speaker.
Every year that passes Dr Peterson is looking more and more like a Biblical Patriarch, Moses or Abraham as I imagine them to be , and I am always moved to tears by his truthful speech
He is a visionary psychologist.
❤❤❤❤❤
Hes the white modern day Solomon if you ask me 🤣🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 infinite wisdom!
@John Song of Solomon 1:5-6
King James Version
5 I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.
6 Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.
Go back and do your research! Yes there were white people in the bible however it is primarily an african history book. The Egyptians and hebrews were black how would jesus have hid in egypt if he was white?
Revealed truth tends to twang my emotions as well
The Holy Bible is arguably the most influential, powerful and motivating book in the history of mankind, it's not the most read/sold book for no reason.
@@dbefore7165 Also one and only book which gave the predominant meaning to the western society - *_All humans are created in the image of GOD._*
The cross checking of the verses will give an exact meaning, relevance and context of the said verse in mistranslation.
No shit it was the indoctrination tool of the largest army the world has ever seen.
Now we have television and radio so the Bible is basically irrelevant as an indoctrination tool for the masses, but still has its value for zealots.
@@dbefore7165 I would really like an English version of the original Greek book.
There are many others. If people checked out 20-50 books on meditation and self inquiry before giving in to a mainstream belief system they would see thing s completely differently. Some of the Bible will make more sense and you’ll be able to see deeper into it. Other parts will be let go of because you can see through the miss understanding. But people will not know the difference between what’s true and what is without seeking true within themselves. It we do that, it’s all just mental games of beliefs.
@tyler Mohr the orthodox study Bible is translated to English straight from the Greek text
Thank you so much for posting this! I really ejoyed, yet again, the brilliance and eloquence of Dr. Peterson. "Maps of Meaning" is next up on my to read list.
Dr. Peterson - I thank you for this presentation. You continue to pose many thoughts and ideas well worth wrestling within and thinking through. Your lectures serve me well as a source of "continuing education" as I serve a church as their pastor. I appreciate your work. Thanks again.
"No positive emotion without a goal"
Excellent line, we are hardwired by... to search the purpose.
Yes! I liked that part too! And each step toward that goal is like "yeah! I'm doing it!". As a new business owner with lots of goals, that was a great flash of motivation for me!
Unless you are a monk, they dont need no goals
@@joseeduardo7521 Interesting non-sequitir.
So glad you're feeling well enough to do lectures again.
When I listen to Dr. Peterson's talks, and I am a very simple woman, not a lot of accepted education in my background, and yet I understand him and where he goes in his talks. I think a lot of my understanding of Dr. Peterson is because he walks and talks with integrity and that lives and rises in his talks)....I know my mind expands and I look at places previously closed to deeper knowing,....he is like a light, a torch, shining. ...its wonderful that this gifted man exists in this world. Thank you Dr.Peterson, and also thank you to my son who introduced me to Dr. Peterson's talks.
I love how full Jordan Peterson's scheduled lectures are, no seat is empty, wonderful.
May have to listen to this 37 times…love this stuff JP! You’re a blessing upon this earth. If there is a Saint for teachers you’d be it
A true gift to anyone who would take the time to listen.
Watching your thinking at work. The pauses as you consider your next words, at certain points in the lecture, are evidence of a properly cautious, restrained way of communicating. I see the value of it as it ensures accuracy and avoids misunderstanding. The wheels are turning in a well regulated fashion that connects with your audience, regardless if they agree or disagree. Thank you.
Jordan Peterson is the defender of logic and rational discourse in an age of emotion-laden, vendictive propositions. Good on u my friend.
Amen!
Christian faith has everything to do with emotion and little to do with rationality. In fact most comments here also mirror this by expressing their emotion and not some kind of argument with logical structure.
@@IsomerSoma imagine a world where logical reasoning (with no possibility of emotion) was the highest goal of human existence. I don’t think it would be very fun… I believe what you’re seeing in this comment section is a number of people expressing Joy in the fact that someone they look up to is now preaching the same truth they have given their whole lives to. Rational discourse should lead somewhere, and hopefully to peace, freedom and joy.
@@samreedmusic "truth"
@@IsomerSoma support your suppositions with coherent argument.
The Biblical narrative is truly a book about relationships throughout time; God desires a personal relationship with each of us. This historic book is truly His-story.
Amen!!! I like that!!
I prefer Hi-story ⬆️ 🙃 similar to high standards. To think the creator has a penis is silly, but I understand the need to simplify things so humans can use language which is rudimentary. It's just as silly to think of the fabric of creation having a vagina. Pleasure organs for reproducing, for the entity that literally created everything? Maybe God enjoys a test run, but then God would be everything that reproduces. So penis, vagina and anything else that is used to reproduce including simple division. But let's not forget the invention of destruction. Which in itself is the part of the cycle of creation. No I don't see God needing to reproduce unless God is cyclical as well and that is an interesting thought.
@@redred8328 I think it's a little more complex than that. God's social desire results in His creation of being in His own image that He can form interpersonal relationships with. In that way God is in fact "reproducing," since all that exists is the imprinting of His mind onto the fabric of reality. Thus, even though He is not employing His own physical genitalia to create and derive neurological pleasure, He does create those systems in us as an image of His own nature - the drive to create and the joy it brings. It is a metaphor, yes, and the term "image" certainly implies a reduction. The finite cannot perfectly mirror the infinite, after all. But it is not only a metaphor, it is also a mechanism through which we can relate on a personal basis to the One who created us. And since our very nature is intended to mimic His to the greatest extent that a limited being can mimic an infinite one, that is reproduction in the truest sense He possibly could. Hence, the primacy of human importance over the rest of creation.
You don't know what god desires...nonsense...don't be a follower.. Be a leader!!!!
@@SepticFuddy I see how you really need God to be associated with our term for male, but that is your need not a provable reality outside of your own. If you think your belief (opinion) is truth that is dogmatic and the path towards ignorance, or a further narrowing path at best. Presumption that God made us in his image is a narrow thought. Creation or God made everything in the image of creation. So everything that exists is in the image of God.
It is only men whose egos are involved think of themselves of being the only image of God and therefore God must look human and in your case be a "man". Your point is arguing for a metaphor which makes my point. Whether you capitalize it or not having God with gender pronouns is cute at best but really just shows the lack of language and critical thinking that is involved with the human race.
To harp on this is moot. It is not complex at all but the opposite, its an over simplification for the mentally lazy or stunted. I am all for guiding the species to be more loving, accepting etc as the sheep need a shepherd. But I can still enjoy teasing the sheep every now and then. Maybe one day through poking around thoughts they become a Shepherd themselves.
Jordan Peterson is one of the up and coming great thinkers of the modern millennial age. He presents historical truth in a way that's easily applied to everyone in every day life. Thank you JP!
If I hadn’t read quite a few of these comments I would have came away thinking that most people would not have grasped the deeper truth that he was trying very hard to get his listeners to understand, and that’s not suggesting that I completely understood everything either, along with perhaps that it’s probably true, that overall it was above the average person thought processes, and also wouldn’t have been the type of person who would have had any interest in listening to this in the first place. But I think this would be very convincing to anyone who sincerely considered themselves to be someone who possessed a fair amount of open minded integrity. But there lies the problem, who could admit that they didn’t, and there seems to be an amazing number of people who obviously don’t possess those quality’s of character, and yet don’t appear to have enough self-awareness to realize that they don’t, or worse yet, wouldn’t care if they didn’t. And here’s another paradox, the higher their Academic achievements, the more likely they are to not have them, it just makes them more dangerous.
Thoughtful, good and useful. So essential today: judgement of truth. Thank you!
Since my introduction to JBP in 2018 I read the NT thrice and I am on my second reading of the OT. I even went to Church a couple of times and think I should be baptized. The Bible improved my story writing and I think I became a relatively better person in the last 4 years.Mainly through realizing that I a m a quite non-repenting sinner.
You need to read the writings of the church fathers next
@@mcspankey4810 I probably do. Thnx :)
Just concentrate on the red print in the New Testament
Edmund husserl developed phenomenology which is a science of our experience (hint: it’s not an introspective psychology). Phenomenology requires that we abandon all metaphysics commitments and examine our experience with a neutral view. In this way we can discover the structures of experiencing.
Socrates says that he was the only wise man because he alone knew that he was not wise. And so the first step towards wisdom is to recognize you’re not wise. Which is said on the Bible in this way ‘fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,’ which is something like the recognition of your smallness is the only way to wisdom; smallness in the presence of Greatness makes the contrast most striking.
Recognizing your own sin as sin is the first step towards healing. If you think you’re ok, you’ll never seek the physician.
When you welcome the Holy Spirit into your heart the whole world will unfold itself before you differently. It seems like you're already experiencing that a bit. Just remember there is no way to take a baby step of faith. It took me years trying to shorten the gap before I jumped but the more I learned the more I saw I didn't know. Then I heard Jesus remind me to not lean on my own understanding... take the leap!
Now this is top-tier Peterson. Deep questions, straightforward thought on those questions, and healthy movement onto the next topic. Great work homie.
I have been concerned for your health in the last few years, but what I'm seeing is unbelievable. Peterson is back! I could not be happier for you and the world. Please keep lifting that cross/weight (whatever) and keep moving up that mountain.
Treat each other as valuable 💛 Proper ethical training - I do love JP!
I feel so privileged to live at the time when Dr. Peterson is. His lectures, videos, debates… are fascinating and inspiring. My gratefulness to This Genius of our century and beyond is indescribable. Thank you dear Dr.Peterson, for opening our hearts, minds. God bless your path of life and ours.
You can hear a pin drop in that room. STUNNING speaker and speech!
This is good. Very good. While studying Social Sciences I came to, and struggled with, the same ‘how do I make decisions’ question. You have so thoroughly articulated the process here. I eventually came to a similar conclusion, that is it about an ethical gap - a gap that we cannot bridge on own. At the same time my thoughts turned more and more to God. I believe that we make good decisions when we make them through God in us. Lovely to see you looking so well, dapper and back in the game JBP. Love and blessings to you and your family. 🙏
Love your bible lectures. Greatly impacted me and let me see the word in a whole new light. Brilliant set of lectures. Wish you’d do more.

Jordan has been my guide, forcing me to ask the uncomfortable questions, facing the horror of my dragons. Forthrightly embarking on the adventure of being!!! I am forever grateful JBP!!
Thank you for your lectures, Dr. Peterson. Your words and dialect have opened my eyes, heart, and mind in the most profound ways. 16 year old me would have never guessed that I would soak up hours and hours of biblical lectures. Here’s to bearing the burden of my responsibility to the best of my ability.
@Justin Christen
👍
It's fantastic to know that you're on an honest quest for seeking the truth. That's indeed bearing the burden of your responsibility.
Better than ANY lecture "which" tells you what you wanna hear, get knowledge of the Bible from the Bible itself. Get hold of a. RED LETTER BIBLE as well as an Interlinear Bible (which has the Hebrew and Greek text given) so that you can learn about the games that have been played to trick the gullible.
It's for you our own *benefit* that such important call and warning is given.
Hosea 4:6
My people are *destroyed for lack of knowledge l* : *because thou hast rejected knowledge , 🚩 I will also reject thee* , that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
*********
For your own benefit. God ( *not* Jesus) said that.
So that you reason. It's of such importance. you reason and you arrive at the truth and when you accept it, God forgives your sins - so no need of any sacrifice or payment or Crucifixion of Jesus which the scriptures expose to be a fiction - something that *never happened* . That's the second subject. Don't be shocked. Relax. Take a step back from emotion. Well come to that subject in its own time.
“Come now, let us *reason* together, says the LORD: 🚩 though your sins are like scarlet, 👉 ✔️ *they shall be as white as snow* 👈 ; 🚩 though they are red like crimson,
👉 ✔️ *they shall become like wool* 👈 Isaiah 1:18
*Do YOU realize that the ONLY people on the face of the earth who practice and uphold and preach and defend the doctrine and honor of Jesus OF YOUR BIBLE are the Muslim* ?????
It's an amazing situation really. On each and every fundamental doctrine, Christians / Christianity is AGAINST Jesus of its very own scriptures BUT the Muslim is calling the Christians to go by what Jesus precticed and preached. 🤗
👉 Jesus gave the Trinity-DESTROYING testimony that THE FATHER IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD but the Christians testify that the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (The Trinity) is the true God.
👉 John 4:21-22
Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, *WORSHIP THE FATHER* .
Ye worship ye know not what: *WE* know what *WE WORSHIP* : for salvation is of the Jews.
Have another look:
*WE WORSHIP*
(The J-E-W nation INCLUDING ME - Jesus)
👉 “And this is life eternal, that they might know *YOU THE ONLY TRUE GOD* , and Jesus Christ, whom *YOU* have sent.”
John 17:3
👉 John 20:17: “Jesus saith unto her, ...I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and TO MY GOD, AND YOUR GOD.”
Have another look!
".... *TO MY GOD and YOUR GOD* "
ME and YOU 👉 *WE*
*WE WORSHIP*
THE ONLY TRUE GOD - THE FATHER who is THE GOD OF ME (Jesus) and YOU 👉 *OUR GOD*
👉 And Jesus answered him, THE FIRST OF ALL the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord *OUR GOD* is one Lord
Mark 12:29
👉 Jesus teaches: “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and *HIM ONLY* shalt thou serve” Luke 4:8. Notice the words: “HIM ONLY.” Jesus did not say “US only,” or “Him and I only.” How could he possibly i it more clear than that? Jesus told to worship ONLY THE FATHER - who is THE GOD of Jesus too.
👉 NEVER preached about Original Sin
👉 NEVER preached that for salvation, people needed to believe that Jesus died (will die) for their sins
👉 NEVER preached that the wages of sins is death
👉 PREACHED that for the forgiveness - NO payment needed, NO sacrifice of Jesus, NO Jesus paid for us
👉 PREACHED that just turn away in sincere repentance and the Merciful God forgives
👉 PREACHED adherence to the comprehensive Law Code as the path to salvation
👉 PREACHED that for certain transgression (like mur-der) on the Law Code, CAPITAL punishment - PUTTING the transgressors to DE ATH - needed to be administered
👉 PREACHED that his followers SHALL IN NO WAY ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN if they do not keep the comprehensive Law Code even better and moreso than the Scribes and the Pharisees
👉 DID NOT eat p.i.g
👉 FASTED and PREACHED FASTING
👉 Greeted with the phrase "peace be with you"
👉 Jesus was CIRCUMCISED. AN EVERLASTING COVENANT IN FLESH for the believers till the end of times
👉 PREACHED that his followers follow the comprehensive Law Code which the Scribes and the Pharisees tell people to follow - that includes oblution / washing of the hands and feet before worship or entering a place of worship

Thank you very much for your reply and for taking interest. You're someone who is honest about reasoning and evidence. I'm pretty confident that Bishop Barron NEVER EVER gave this knowledge to you and the masses.
*Will you be responsible to answer before God Almighty OR will God Almighty accept your excuse that you went by what Bishop Barron preached?*
I'll just EXP-OSE the false teachers and the decei-vers like him. What YOU need to do is just tell me that Bishop Barron gave the follow knowledge to you and the masses.
*Look how the False teachers CORRUPTED the message of Jesus in their writings and preaching and made over a BILLION+ people (Christians including YOU - UNFORTUNATELY) actually make a H.E.R.E.T.I.C of Jesus whom they profess to love*
Jesus gave the testimony that THE FATHER IS THE ONLY TRUE GOD but the Christians (overwhelming majority) testify that the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (The Trinity) is the true God.
***********
The Church Fathers went so far as to MUTILATE the testimony of Jesus in their writings and preaching and the results are right in front of you. The very testimony of Jesus is right in front of you. All your life the Church sold you the abomination of the Trinity and Jesus being God BUT here is the reality.
The clear and emphatic, *Trinity-DESTROYING* , Islamic, unitarian monotheism of John 17:3 gave so much trouble to the Church as we see in the writings of early patristic authorities as they encounter the verse. One such patristic figure was the Doctor of the Church*** Augustine. He just could not digest the explicit and emphatic Trinity-Destroying testimony of Jesus Christ in John 17:3 that he attempted to MUTILATE the whole thing completely so that it would place Jesus side by side with the Father and together they would be declared “the only true God.” Dissatisfied with what John 17:3 says, Augustine writes the following in Tractate 105 of his Homilies on the Gospel of John:
“But this, saith He, is life eternal, that they may know Thee [the Father] the only true God, and Jesus Christ, Whom Thou hast sent. The [proper] order of the words is: “That Thee [the Father] and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent, they may know to be the only true God.”
The clear and emphatic, Islamic, unitarian message of John 17:3 was far too disagreeable to Augustine that he was willing to completely MUTILATE what was there in the scripture. And he was not alone in such an irresponsible enterprise.
THE ONLY TRUE GOD - THE FATHER - exposes such kind and destroys such abominations that Christians attribute to HIM and Jesus.
@@cynthiawebster4379

*God Almighty in His mercy and love for YOU had DESTINED that all this knowledge came to YOU. What YOU do after knowledge has come to YOU is up to YOU. YOU can either accept and acknowledge OR YOU can deny and look away* and go by what Bishop Barron has to say.
I was looking for this for months. What a lovely surprise. Im excited to hear the remaining 55mins of this video. God bless you Dr. Peterson for brining me back to life and to God (its something, right?)..
Phenomenal lecture! Absolutely phenomenal! I love your way of thinking - from the particular to the universal.
Thank you Steubenville University for bringing Professor Peterson to speak. It’s so interesting to hear from someone who clearly doesn’t understand the distinctions between the Catholic teachings and non-Catholic Christian teachings struggling to reconcile his worldview with them.
Such an unbelievable amount of intelligence and wisdom in this Man's words..!
I am definitely going to dive into the Bible in upcoming months..!
I just bought a restrike of the first page of the Guttenberg Bible for my husband for our anniversary. It is so beautiful, I can't wait to give it to him! It is fascinating how one object could represent so much of history, and can almost manifest time into the material. It gave me "That Heartbeat". But then again, he never gets as excited as I do about my gifts! Sometimes, he has to warm up to them. I think silently, "What do you mean it's not love at first sight?" Anyway, This Time I think he will feel the same thing! I will never give up. It will happen one day.
JBP is a deeply kind and good person. We are blessed to have our lifetimes intersect his❤🙏
*Thanks for watching send a direct message right away I will love to hear your thoughts on it and for more enlightenment.☝️❤️***
Thank you for sharing your lectures. Excited to hear you speak in person. 🙏
I had bought two tickets to see him but his visit to my city got cancelled, tragically. 😭
I love your work Dr. Peterson
😂👍🏻 yeah you were the first!
If he read and kept up to where we are now, he would be giving a completely different lecture//
This very clear wisdom should be in our church pulpits. If the pastors don't teach the truth we need to hear to live better lives, God will give a "pulpit" to those who will. JP is such a person.
Thank you Jordan!❤️
