- Why should you bother with this old book ?
I delved into the biblical narratives, I found myself captivated by the timeless wisdom and moral lessons they offered.
I wanted to create this mini documentary for a long time I really hope you'll enjoy it!

Video was fully edited by myself, this mini documentary was created In collaboration with Dr Jordan Peterson.
I was an atheist a year ago at the end of my rope. A man told me to open up the Holy Bible and give it a shot. The power of God came over me with undeniable power. Then I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit there's no logic or words that can explain the supernatural power behind the Bible. To all the intellectual people there's more than meets the eye. If you walk by sight you walk this Earth as a blind man if you walk by faith you are truly walking by sight. God bless brothers and sisters read the Holy Bible it will truly change your life for the better and those around you.
Ephesians 3:20💪✝️
I LOVE this! The power of The Holy Spirit is undeniable
Don't judge. You don't know the mind or heart of JP or anyone else. Only God knows. And the ritual of being saved isn't necessary to finding God.
@messenger ministries is not Peterson encouraging people to look into the book as that friend did? Don't be such a blind fool. Jesus said if they are not against us they are for us. Jordan is definitely for us and is acting it out in ways even he does not realize I suspect.
@messenger ministries Then why aren't we using this comment energy to hope that since he has chosen to study on this particular topic. That He will feel the unconditional love and faith that we "saved" felt and feel from it that is powerful beyond understanding. Why not pray for that instead of trashing him
I got saved yesterday and cried. Christ changes us. ❤
A new creation. Stay in the Word each day.
The heavens rejoiced
Amen 🙏
It appears Christ has changed you into a cat. Is that a good thing?
On that path too … He’s there for you even in our personal hell
It’s the only Book that when you read it, the Author shows up 😊
❤❤❤ Or you found out the Author was with you all the time 😭 🙏🏼 ❤❤❤
Well said
Amen!
amazing comment 😮😲👍👌
Wow, I'm taking that with me thank you!😊
When I was a kid I was brought into a church, and told about the word of God.
Shortly after entering high-school, I stopped, went on my way.
Now, I have found God after all these years.
Thank You Jesus !

Praise Jesus!
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom “. This man is a genius, yet humble enough to know there’s more he can learn.
How does fear make you wise?
Im sorry I was beaten as a child ny my father, fear was the only emotion I had for most of my young life. How did it make me wise?
Your cults stupidity is staggering!
@@deeschoe1245 different kind of fear. Don't be like that. Inform yourself before you look mean and just flat out ignorant.
@@deeschoe1245 I am sorry someone treated you like trash. Unforgivness will decay the rest of your life. Bitterness and surprisingly you'll become like the very thing & or person that sinned against you.
I see you aren't bragging about YHWH...I'm here to tell you Dee, our Jesus loves you. Restoration is his specialty. God knows your pain. Talk to him. What could hurt?

@@deeschoe1245 You don't understand 'fear' as it's being used here. I had to leave home due to parental abuse. I opened my heart to Jesus as an adult. I've been able, by God's grace, to let go of all resentment and corrosive hatred. Born again indeed. I gave it a go because the happiest people I'd ever met were practicing Christians. God was waiting for me.
Praise to you Lord and may all who read this similarly discover your love.🙏
This makes me so happy, that Jordan, a man of intellect, and respected in his field of study is reading the Bible and understanding the power of scripture and seeing the truths within it, without having bias.
I'm glad he's giving the Bible the literary respect it deserves as one of the great books of the western cannon.
I love how he breaks down the practicality and utility if the Bible and the lessons within without getting into the "guy in the sky-type fairy tale ideal of religion". This is what Christianity has been missing. It makes so much sense. I wished so hard that when I was a teenager going to church and a young adult, I wished that I would've had Dr. Peterson perspective and lessons to go along with the preachers message from the pulpit. Christians would have a more solid base in my opinion. I believe Christianity for all its similarities with other religions, that it is different and is better
the bible is just full of crap, it's litteraly a bunch of kid's story. Useless book for people who are affrayed of the life.
@@angexis2429 then you didn't get some things right
He is losing his respect in his field of study, but gaining real world admiration
Watching Jordan Peterson get closer and closer to Jesus in real time is just incredible. What an outrageous blessing!!
Isnt it so cool to see? Im so impressed by the way he is able to articulate so many complex ideas. And usually the scientific/theory types, at least those with a platform in the public eye, seem so far away from even the possibility of God. His journey has absolutely helped me make sense of mine.
And so:
We continue to pray!!
I have watched God change agnostic minds into theological minds more than once and every single time I am in awe of Him. It's beautiful to watch JP on his journey. I truly believe God has always had big plans for him and now that he has a platform, JP can bless us with his growing wisdom. Absolutely love watching him draw closer and closer to Christ.
I say this all the time. I think he has been put forward as an example for the world. How to come to christ through rationalisation and self examination.
Yes, especially since he's an intelligent scholar and college professor, very rare, and precious.
I've been agnostic for most of my life. Most of my friends know that.
A friend needed a place to stay when she got out of rehab, and I had a spare bedroom at that time. She was having a hard time trying to identify who or what her 12 Step "Higher Power" was. She explored eastern religions, various forms of mysticism, and the Great Spirit of her Native American ancestors. None rang true to her.
One day, she stopped me as I was passing her room. "Pat? Where can I find what I'm looking for?"
I answered, "You might try reading The Bible."
She was incredulous. "YOU'RE suggesting I read The Bible?"
"Yeah." I replied. "Whether or not you believe The Bible to be the Inspired Word of God, it's still 6000 years of human experience and observation."
She's still a Christian.
Nicely put story!
The corn. It’s good that you did the first works.
Great story god bless you all in Jesus name ✝️🛐❤️
Now, it’s your turn. You are not clear, at least to me, if you have turned to Jesus or not. I 🙏 you do/have.
I hope you decided to read as well...remember, each one of is must give an account of our lives to the Judge
I have many friends that are degreed and double-degreed from prestigious universities. I graduated from a community college with a two-year associates in nursing. I am often in situations where I feel insecure about my intellect and lack of knowledge on any given subject. However, as a Christian, Jesus speaks to those who listen for his voice. He imparts biblical wisdom and I’ve never felt stupid or out of my element applying scriptural applications to life. The Bible supersedes all earthly wisdom, cuts to the core & reaches deep into the souls of men and is a balm for the broken spirit.
So well said. You are the blessed one, who recognize the gifts of Holly Spirit. Thank you for your inspirational comment.

Here's an opinion you won't find on this thread, the reason why the bible is still around is because it was raped and murdered into your forefathers, it's a book that's covered with the blood of mostly peaceful natives, filled with satanic ritualistic symbolism that's worshipped blindly by the mindless, lost and broken. It's unfathomable that this violent book filled with incest, rape and torture will be prescribed to be read to children worldwide, religion is a mental illness and this fake ass psychologist are riding the billions of unthinking masses for all its worth. If there is such an entity as Satan then he is the one that gave this unholy book to the first nations of the world, they were by far better off without it.
@@jkin1922 you can barely form a coherent thought in writing and you're judging. Maybe learn how to form a rudimentary sentence first.
@@robertpaolucci2092 Of course I write in judgement considering that this whole pedo system runs on it, while you with your pedo Jesus blinkers on believes that it must be so, go watch ----deliver**us** from*** evil***___by A__m___y B__e***rg and try not to pass judgement after that.
I was in the deepest darkness of depression and wishing death when a friend told me Jesus loves me and I opened the book of John. I cried that night like a baby. Salvation had entered my heart and I knew it because the next morning my mind was so different. Yes like Paul, my re-birth was immediate. The Lord had to break me before He could get my attention. The Bible is the living Word of God. If you know what I'm talking about, say Amen!
Amen

Absolute Amen!
It’s a living book! Plus it’s the only book that the author IS there every time you read it :)
u got it on spot right there! It’s not a book it’s a living book

I envy you your ability to turn your logic off and just believe on faith.

The moment I opened up the bible. It changed my life in so many ways. I am now fully awake❤. Thank you Jesus!
LMAO!!! Nope, you're more asleep than ever.
@@theoriginalKland famous last words!!! You might laugh your arse cheeks off - but you won’t laugh off the longevity of the Bible!!!
@@susiejoyk1287 Lol, how are they last words? Yes.. books stick around longer than us..
You do know there are books that are way older than the bible, right?
So what's your point?
The longevity of a book has no bearing on it's truth.bif that were the case then you'd be worshipping the bhagavad gita.
@@theoriginalKland I have a challenge for you. Read the book "Evidence that Demands a Verdict" and come back and talk to us when you know something about the Bible and its historicity compared to other books of antiquity. When someone mocks the Bible I know they haven't studied it nor anything about it historicity. Check the book, you might surprise yourself.
Dear Jordan Peterson,
I've recently decided to overcome the fear of knowledge. I am an under educated man who saw knowledge like a mountain. I am now listening to your messages with my #1 tool (the dictionary).
To be honest, listening to you speaking was alien to me. I am now able to understand and think to what you are sharing to the public. It's an honor and privilege to have you around. Thank you for your courageous hard work. You are participating meaningfully in my pursue in a better self.
Ignorance can be bliss. Be careful what you get into. Some books or teaching is not for everyone and can warp you a bit. I speak from experience. All the best, though, I'm not trying to be negative.
I am an educated man and I just bought myself a beautiful used dictionary. You can do it! Don't let anything stop you!
That’s so wonderful and if you know the story of great men of the past many such as John Bunyan who wrote the Pilgrims Progress we’re classed as uneducated men.
So go forward in Gods Grace and the best is yet to come.
Don't know about you, but I get my sense of morality from the Bible. Especially the OT ---and the horrendous atrocities god permitted/ordered. They are such wonderful examples of how we should show love in the world. Such wonderful examples of god's love for all mankind. I especially like god's promotion of slavery in the both the New and Old Testament and his obvious preference for one race of people over another. And the genocide. What is wrong with racism when god himself seemed to promote it. Another example of how he showed his love is in the verses that describe how he sent the two bears to maul the children who made fun of a bald man. What a wonderfully just and reasoned god. Well I could just go on and on proving to you his wisdom and love. Jesus said in the NT he did not come to change one iota of his father's words. Why bother to listen to these debates when all you really need to do is read the bible. JORDEN, HAVE YOU READ THE BIBLE???? WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE OT AS A BASIS FOR MORALITY??
Wow. What a humble, and wonderful comment!! Thank you!!
My respect goes through the roof. As for myself, in my darkest hour, Jesus Christ saved me with urgency, authority and love.

I read a book a week since 2019. I've recently been reading the bible because "how can a billion people be wrong". I hope it transforms me into a better person, christian and more knowledgeable consumer. The word of Christ has changed many hearts and minds. I'm now willing to accept this challenge
Congratulations! Please read Mathew 24 the complete chapter in order to understand the times that we are living now! It is a treasure to be in the light! 😇
2.2 Billion to be exact.
Hope you believe that Christ died for our sins, was buried in our stead and was raised for our justification?
As you read it, Ask the Author to reveal Himself to you and what He means. If you mean it in your heart get ready for the most incredible journey of your life. He truly is Amazing!
God bless you in your endeavour.
A living book it is. When you read it you grow, and when you grow, you read it!

Once I gave up my plan and gave my plan up to Yahweh, my life has done nothing but change for the better. Thank you Dr. Peterson, I love one thing you said in a different setting was "play is mastery" Love it so much. Thanks so much
@@warriorandchildofgod2425 And doing his own will instead of the will of God. Loving the truth more than we love our life is required.
@@sharingstoke yes the heart is not good- left to it’s own devices .. and does not have any redemption.. if itself!
I think the reason why we as Christians choose to follow this man that died 2 thousand years+ ago is because we can literally feel in our core soul that this is not a normal book but a living, breathing and life changing book. Miraculously put together by a ton of authors that comes together beautifully to point back to that said Person. Jesus Christ's words will never get old. God bless you my Fellow Christians and God bless those that are searching for something bigger then life itself. If you find him one day, I welcome you and our father does also with Wide arms. God Bless!
beautifully said. Catholic Christian here, with all the human mistakes, the word of God lives on.
AMEN & Amen 1,000 times over!!! I’m a cult survivor. The Jesus who was preached to us was a monster who was waiting to judge us. I was filled with fear. I know better now. Thank you Lord for showing me YOUR light 💡
I struggle and wrestle with what God could be yet I have started to follow Christ, as I am with doubts and skepticism but nonetheless "drawing near" like the Bible suggests to do instead of scoffing and mocking and dismissing based on what ifs and arguments. My model for growth has been in my youth I practiced (still do) jiu jitsu and Judo which changed from a few classes, where nothing made sense and I'd occasionally see players lose fights, into a lifestyle where I have faith thru the walk, the life lessons, and social benefits like confidence and not just the experience and story of the free month of trial classes; Kierkegaard explains this in Fear and Trembling as Abraham's faith developing through his walk not like ours over the course of a few paragraphs. James 4:8
I rely on the witnesses.
Your feelings do not make it so. What great values and discoveries have Abrahamic religions given us?
It's a blessing to see a man searching so strong for God. For the Living God. May Jesus grab a hold of this man and use him for many souls to be saved
I think it is clear to see that this is GODS WILL for Mr. Peterson. He is blessed in a crazy way - and i think he has realized this and will spread the LOVE OF GOD over the whole planet.😇🤗❤
jeezass aint real dummy
@@naturestone3148 that’s not exactly how God works
You have carefully hidden these things from the wise and learned, and have revealed them to little ones. "(Luke 10:21). From this prayer of Jesus to his heavenly Father, it is clear that a certain mindset is required to understand the Bible. God has produced a book that only the humble and teachable can truly understand. What wisdom!
@@loorye1 This man demonstrates a humble attitude, to be humble is to be teachable and he demonstrates that he is seeking to learn and mentions how every time he studies the Bible he sees deeper and deeper meaning in it. God is at work in this man and if he isn’t saved I pray and believe he is on track to be saved.
Paul who wrote the majority of the New Testament is a very well studied intellectual among other things!
@@BarnabasLawson 100% agree.
I was lost in Faith, feelings, hatred, grudges but my mother's prayers made me find God and He totally changed my life 🙏
You are a great communicator. This was God's plan for you. Keep teaching the awesome ness, power and Glory of the Bible.

His sincerity is amazing!!
Amen!
Peterson is overthinking this. Faith is as simple as opening oneself up to God so God can pour Himself into us. Beliefs don’t change a thing about the Creator, they affect our experience of Him.

Going on 35 years of Bible study myself. I’ve often said that the more I learn, the more ignorant I find myself. I really like this passage from Romans 11---
“Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God!”
Sounds like you wasted 60 years. How unfortunate for you
I see an incredible awakening here, many of us have prayed for you Dr Peterson. This is the Holy Spirit in action. Divine intervention. God is now working through you. Your voice reaches every corner of the world! +++

Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father ~ what a wonderful blessing to hear you speak on the Word... John1:1
I was a professional Infantry Soldier Section Commander in 3 wars. My signalman had his leg blown off at the hip leaving no stump. After he bled out and died, he spoke to me clearly said goodbye about 5 minutes after he had died, without out opening his mouth and I said goodbye to him, without opening my mouth while I was bleeding out 25 May 69. While dealing with War Neurosis in 1984 standing on my head, God with a strong male voice he said “ Nothing shall befall your family”. I will never not love Jesus !!!!❤❤❤❤❤
That made me cry 😢 ❤️
How difficult to witness losing a member of your team ( I had no tragedy as a radio detachment commander in my brief 3 years of DND service in peace time), your family, and to retain your love of Christ in the face of such horror and tragedy. I paused on your reply solely due to my own DND service and with Canadian Signals ! We each crave a word or breath or God utterance in our lives and so it is precious you had such a message and that you embraced faith and love of Jesus. I pray Bruce you will know you were loved then and now by Jesus and that in your and his injuries you set aside the ugly and repugnant parts of war to be two loving humans to say good bye and to mourn death and to know that life... your life Bruce is so precious. Thank you for the witness to your comrade who died, your struggles with their death and your love of Jesus. Blessings to you.
God bless you and thank you for your service, this touched my heart
I love reading the Bible daily!
I always ask Jesus to teach me while I read.
I've started writing it out ...slowly , taking in every word...believe me it's a mind and health changer!!!
Brilliant! I’ve never studied the Bible but now I will😢.
A beautiful journey discovering the God who created it all! That He is coming to rescue His children and take us to His kingdom of Love past the Moon, past the Sun, past the Planets then through the Orion! Can’t wait!
As you study and learn what it is to rightly divide the Scriptures you come to a better understanding. There’s a study out there called Through the Bible in Seven Hours. The pastor that teaches it is Richard Jordan. This will help you understand.

I agree with you. It is a bit of heartbreaking to see how he struggles with his own very quick thinking. He is very blessed and he doing the right thing. Some people are blessed with the gift of silence. He is blessed with the gift of talking.
I almost died in emergency room one night because of Gerd but Jesus saved me. I was panicking, hopeless and only with my neighbor, she was waiting outside room.
But suddenly, scrabble blocks popped out of the wall and made sentences out of verses from Psalm 23. I asked Lord Jesus is this from You? Are you real? ( I was still a moslem at the time) I felt calm and peaceful.
But like the blink eye, I woke up in a private room, not in the emergency room anymore. I survived and didn't have to do surgery. I'm healed! And now I have relationship with God as daughter, friend and His witness. I'm so grateful! Jesus is alive! He is the Living God.
“You don’t have a better option”. Love that.

malcolm kenobi..By scripture I guess you mean the scribblings of fearful,uneducated,supersticous,mysigonistic desert tribesmen in the most backward part of the middle east ?the bible reads like the ravings of a madman,full of ridiculous claims and contradictions and falsehoods.one thing that it does make clear is that there was a lack of institutions for epileptics and schizophrenics in Palestine at that time.
I started with the Gospels last December and after i finished that i decided to read the bible from the very beginning. Reading the Gospel gave me goosebumps because it's so real, every word written in red. What really got me was not just Jesus's miracles but bringing Lazareth back to life after everyone knew him to be "asleep" for four days. Then, I came to the last supper and afterwards when Jesus was praying to our Father before he was betrayed by Judas. When Jesus asked God to let this cup of wrath to pass from him but not of his will but our Father's will be done. Things really started clicking. I was prescribed fentanyl for back pain and surgeries that I've had since 2017 and i just didn't want it anymore. Because of the grace, love and mercy of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ this journey is almost over. If I'm not willing to pick up my cross like he did how can I be a follower of Jesus Christ?
Dear Father, I am not worthy to be called one of your children. You and I know that I'm weak and feeble minded. With you I have nearly conquered my demons and there will be more. I rely on n you and only you to carry me until it's over and then I can put myself to your service to help bring people back from our sinful ways. I pray that you keep the holy spirit with me and everyone else that believes in you. Lord, my will makes no sense, your will is the only will I want to do. I pray for every soul to hear with their ears the word and see how it affects their lives. Please bless my hands so that people will know who and what I am by my works. In Jesus's name I pray, Amen!
God will forgive all your sins, if you pray to the Lord: confess your sins and believe that Jesus Christ, the risen Son of God, has died for all your sins on the cross, and trust in Him alone for your salvation.
As your have read, Christ said „It is finished“ meaning you cannot add anything to this salvation. All you need to do is accept it and believe it.
If you have become a christian, read the letters of Paul first. They are „our doctrine“ for this age.
The Bible will test you. Read on.
I recommend you order a Ruckman Reference Bible.
All the best, may the grace of God and the Lord Jesus be with you!
I've been cheering for Jordan in my heart and I am glad that he is learning and getting understanding in his heart.
16:48 is the definition of faith!.. acknowledging that there’s more to this story than I can understand, and leaving the door open for more understanding!.. Beautifully stated.
None of us has it all figured out nor do we need to. Leaving the door open for continued spiritual growth & wisdom is all our Father asks 🙏♥️
@messenger ministries Geeezzzzzzz. Please get over yourself. So, I suppose Mr. Peterson and you are best friends, known each-other since birth yea, you know it all. Not. Wise-up, no, grow-up.
@messenger ministries I read comments such as yours thankfully rare. They miss the point that Peterson is leading people to the point you would suggest by a different means. All you need do it read through the comments to see it. He says more than once he is no theologian yet he is doing the work of one. Drop your tribalism, your denominational leaning and appreciate it as it is. You are behaving as the pharisees Jesus fought against.
HEBREWS 11 This is where you can read about FAITH.
CtR guy.Faith is believing something when there is no reason to believe it.Why on earth would anyone do that?.Anyone who would accept as fact the anonymous,bronze age stories told by fearful,uneducated,supersticous,mysigonistic desert tribesmen in the most backward part of the middle east, would believe just about any old thing that they are told..They must be a dream come true for real estate agents and used car salesmen.
Do you have a definition of God? What God is? I know I can’t use the pronoun “who” in the question because God is not a person.
The Holy Spirit is working through this humble man
For sure
No doubt
I absolutely LOVE this. His words are powerful, heart touching and I'm so blessed to be able to watch Yeshua move in Mr. Peterson's life. Thank you 😊
Hello Kristen
How are you doing today/
To the *worthwhile person* seeing this, Don’t allow the past and current pains and hurts stop and define you. You’re more than a conqueror. Rise up and put yourself together. Keep pushing your future depends on it. I wish you all the best in life ❤️. Jordan Peterson just explains things in a way that makes it soothing.
These are good words to be putting out to people, to the world. I appreciate it. Aloha.

Does anyone know if God gives 3rd chanc es, when we've been naive, but with hindsight reali se, we were wrong/dumb to not recognise the signs he ws trying to show us?
My loved ones tried to warn me others would come between us but i naively saw the best in those i ws being warned about & thought myLovedOnes were worrying unnecessrily that no one would be so cruel
Then we had the wool pulled over our eyes & what i ws warned about c@me true
I'm now broken hearted becau se, i now see with hindsight i should've seen the sights & the destruction to us wouldn't have happened
The price we pay for my naivety
Will God give me another chance, i see the error of my naive wys & despertely wish to mke it up to my very precious loved ones 🙏
@@evelina787 I'm no expert, but I believe you will be forgiven if you repent and mean it.❤🙏❤
@@patientlywatching7775 thnks very much for your response
I'm truly sorry, i ws completely naive
Others could see what i couldn't so it led to me having the wool pulled over my eyes
If i could turn back time i'd listen immeditely to warning s
I thought everyone ws @s kind & good hearted's those i have's friends
But learnt the hard way this isn't the truth & my not seeing i ws being warned hs now resulted in huge division being mde between precious loved ones
The devil had chance to c@use divide&he did Now i'm trying everything i can to put right these wrongs & rebuild reunite what should never have been d@m@ged destroyed in tge 1st place
I will never,,, not take my loved ones seriously again & i will recognise God talking through those we love
Thnk you very much for your guidance 🙏
He just explained why having a Biblical worldview is the lense in which everything can make more sense. It also validates that scripture is alive and does not come back void when spoken.
Don't know about you, but I get my sense of morality from the Bible. Especially the OT ---and the horrendous atrocities god permitted/ordered. They are such wonderful examples of how we should show love in the world. Such wonderful examples of god's love for all mankind. I especially like god's promotion of slavery in the both the New and Old Testament and his obvious preference for one race of people over another. And the genocide. What is wrong with racism when god himself seemed to promote it. Another example of how he showed his love is in the verses that describe how he sent the two bears to maul the children who made fun of a bald man. What a wonderfully just and reasoned god. Well I could just go on and on proving to you his wisdom and love. Jesus said in the NT he did not come to change one iota of his father's words. Why bother to listen to these debates when all you really need to do is read the bible. JORDEN, HAVE YOU READ THE BIBLE???? WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE OT AS A BASIS FOR MORALITY??
Dr. Peterson is such a force of transformative good in the world that I worry about him. I'm Canadian but, can't wait to see him back here as he's on a prolonged tour in the US. I'm booking a flight and ticket to see him in Utah next month. The world is so filled with evil, that I worry they will stop Dr. Peterson from delivering his messages. God bless and keep him. A true soldier.
The cringe-worthy pontifications and ludicrous positions posited by Jordan B. Peterson: Women wearing makeup invite sexual harassment. Rules concerning men arguing with men verses men arguing with “crazy women” are unfair because men can't hit women. An essay in which he stated hating Muslim people wasn't a bad thing because all Muslims are violent extremists. His lie that .every country with a Muslim government gives the death penalty for blasphemy. His completely ridiculous statement that ancient people knew all about DNA and that the medical symbol of the intertwined snakes is proof of that. Corporal punishment should be used to discipline
children, even two year olds (Rule 5,) His twitter comment in which he presented himself as an authority on objective standards of beauty for women (and then quit twitter because someone had the gall to call him on
it.) His dishonesty and waffling about when he was asked if he believed in Christ/was a Christian. His hypocrisy concerning his own 12 Rules. When life gets hard, take Benzos. His very uneducated stance on climate change. (How arrogant. That's not his area of expertise.) His statement that there are no reliable chemical means to stop smoking he says, and then immediately brings up the use of magic mushrooms. His deliberate misrepresentation of Bill C-16. He out and out lied about the content/purpose of that bill just to get another 15 minutes of fame. What a despicable man. His arrogance at retranslating the meaning of various Bible stories as though he has a direct line to God--or as though he is God. Next thing he'll do is write a third testament. Wonder what he'll call it. Not a complete list by any means. Sorry I just can't respect the arrogance of someone who presents himself as an expert in disciplines for which he has no scholarship-climatology, theology, nutrition, pharmacology...
@Darren No wonder you have the comments turned off.......
Wow. This is very powerful. I met Jesus about 5 months ago. And the Bible has now transformed my life.
Especially for those who are struggling to achieve success. Always rely on the Lord Jesus to accelerate your goals and dreams.
❤️
Sure, but remember this. God is not interested in successful people he is interested in Faithful people.
So true..Sounds like the Holy Spirit is drawing him....
Yaaaaas, went from an atheist of 12 years to a christian ❤️✝️😃💯
So great to see God dealing with these people. Never underestimate who He can use❤
According to the bible the most high only deal with Israelites unless you can prove it from the bible the most high deal with everyone
I received a calling in the middle of the night while I was sleeping. I woke up a different man. Totally different. Went right to the Bible and started educating myself on the power of the Holy Spirit. That led me to really see how this world operates and who is really behind the scenes. Only trust the word of God and live your life according to the scripture. You will see a dramatic change for the better in your life !!! God Bless you all. Your loved.
God bless you
Very true indeed,amen.
In other words you became delusional.

So true..
I wandered around lost in darkness for years destroying myself through addiction whilst searching for truth,Wisdom until l finally picked up a bible;the first thing l read ; You're in deep deep darkness and how deep that darkness can be ,these were more than mere words they connected me with God,not the Universe but the creator of the universe this was no mere book whilst many people had written it, it was from God himself and it has led me to know him and learn his Wisdom it has opened my eyes l can say l was blind but now l see.l must say lm loving seeing you Jordan share your journey with the world.
He also speaks to my through written messages, If I have a question or I´m sad I pray and ask him to send me a message, he always answers!
Blessed are You, LORD our God, KING OF THE UNIVERSE.
This man is brilliant and gives examples of why God is the Almighty. I love listening to him! You can't help but learn.
I read it everyday. My life has been enriched beyond measure, because of it. My favorite is psalms. Iam amazed by the wisdom, and beauty it conveys, every time I read it.
How do you read it every day? Start to finish or pick a random chapter.
@@bobafatt2155 a chapter or two before bed. Good way to end my day. Sometimes I'll do more extensive reading. To read it cover to cover, and absorb what you're reading, requires a lot of time.
@@davidlitchke4964 but don’t you need to read it all first to understand it better?
@@bobafatt2155 no. I'd start with the four gospels in the new testament. Easier to understand, and pertains more to people today. I call it the heart of the Bible. Then in time, you can start to delve into the old testament.
@@davidlitchke4964 thanks
So much knowledge and wisdom in this book... even if you are atheist u can be drawn to this book because its all about human nature and behaviour of good... good over coming bad... how to treat your fellow man...how to live a peaceful life ...kindness and compassion...selflessness....
Not really.. there isn't much "good" In the bible.
It also instructs you to hate, kill and plunder anyone who is different from you.
Have you even read the bible?
its great book and massively historically significant. and im an atheist. but im not anti-religious. im anti-religion.
Wow. I’ve never heard a more elegant summarization & unpacking of the Bible.
I am simply amazed more, every time I listen to this man, I was hesitant to understand who he is, where he is coming from. However the more I dig, the more I hear him I am full of respect. Being a student of the Bible myself, after hearing this video, I am more than in awe of his intelligence and of his respect for the He is going about it exactly as individuals should, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, not discounting any of the word! He is brilliant and so sad that often the most intelligent among us, NOT SO WITH JORDAN PETERSON. I SALUTE YOU SIR!!
Faith is so powerful. Thank you for your humility Jordan. Love the way you have come to this. God of creation will bless your faith!!
God bless Jordan! Mr. Peterson has such a humility and child-like wonderment! Its so refreshing to hear and see!
Amen 🙏🏼
And May The Lord continue to lead him into His Righteousness! Hallelujah Amen 🙏🏼
His entire family! Amen 🙏🏼 🥰✌🏼🙏🏼♥️
Had to share this as well...
People read many books to "get lost in them"...all while refusing the Only Book that they can be FOUND IN!
The Holy Bible!
((The Lord put that on my heart about a year ago.)) Amen 🙏🏼
Aw so happy to know that Jordan is getting closer to our Lord 🙏❤️🌹
As native Colombian , and one who after many years of having my bible stuck in a bookshelf decided to read it , study it as history book, as an enchanting story of not only one nation but of many that with all it’s violence , uncertainty, it contains hope , believes, and love in many forms .It has been the most interesting book I’m still reading and I don’t want to finish it . Love to hear Jordan talk about it and analyzing it so wonderfully 🪴
It's ok to finish, because when you start again to read it, you will see things you did not notice before. It always feels fresh. The most thrilling thing is the more you read it, the more you see Christ all through it.
You don't ever have to stop reading it. I've been reading and re-reading it my whole life (since a young child). It is great to first just read it, then dive into Hebrew traditions and Greek culture. Dive into the original languages, and a whole new meaning often emerges. Dissecting small passages and studying them. Real Bible study is so fascinating. Maybe you could even start a Bible study with other inquisitive minds. Often times, churches don't dive into the depths of language and history of Bible times, but running your own study could be all the things you want. Best to you on your journey, because it really never ends.
I hear people knocking the bible99% of them haven't read it. Having read it I can see why it is so enduring a road map for anyone willing to listen.
The Word of God is living and effective, sharper than any two-edged sword.
Hebrews 4:12
Always new and alive! Because the Word is a PERSON: Jesus Christ our Lord and God!
When you finish read it again and again you will see it still teaches you everytime you read ! What it teaches you the first time you read it and the next it’s at a deeper level it will be like you are reading it all new ,,, that is because it is the living words of God 🙏
Eyes and ears are being opened by the word of GOD.
Amen to the seekers of truth ..
People like Peterson are helping that process and I am amazed by the means Jordan is doing it and his starting point. As he grows those that follow him grow as well. It is said God works in mysterious ways and we are witnessing it in real time. He started with an atheist and his growth is recorded on video for us to see and hear. Glory to God as it is said.
Gods face is smiling down on you Jordon Peterson you are a remarkable individual, I'm so proud that you are a fellow Canadian. May God bless you.
What God are you talking about psalm 147 /19/20 he show his words to Jacob his statutes and judgments to Israel for he has not dealt with any other nation and for his judgments they have not known them according to the bible the most high never dealt with any other nation so why would he be blessing an none Israelite where in the bible can I read the most high bless an none Israelite
I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH. HIS LOVE AND OPENNESS TO GOD IS SO PALPABLE...
What God are you talking about
If you’re reading this, know that you are worthy of anything you desire. Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.
That's awesome to hear. I invested 5k in Robin hood about a year ago and it steadily went down, now my portfolio is down $800. I don't know what to do and i am in between jobs.
@@nyreggie-isb23 That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
@@bjoe631 You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
Wow I'm a bit perplexed you guys are discussing about Gary Mason Brooks , I once met him at a conference in California 2019, just before the pandemic. I can testify that he’s very good in trading..Highly recommended.
I grew up in a church. Presbyterian which was across the street from my grandmothers house. My mother was a Sunday school teacher for a few years so going 3x a week was a minimum.
I have not gone to church after my grandmother passed away. But in recent years I have been talking to God after having a decade of struggle.
I believe God listens and answers in ways we may not understand but we must also take personal responsibility and put forth the effort.
Take yourself back to church. Get involved in the body of Christ and you will grow
Dr. Peterson provides the logic that is missing from most religious teachings about what scripture ACTUALLY IS. A recovering Catholic myself, having read the Bible many times, I can finally understand it’s value and true meanings (as best as humans are able)

Hi mate.I live in Napier and it would be cool to talk with you.Are you near my friend?
Im a Believer and have been for over 25 years this makes my heart happy to see you this interested in the word of God I have recently stumbled upon your carnivore diet testimony this was the first time I had ever heard you speak and I have also watched your daughter’s testimony and many of her videos it was a miracle that I found the carnivore truth through you and Michaela thank you.
Imagine knowledge that he had before reading a Bible
And
Imagine now level of understanding he has
Of the Bible…
This man is an absolute living legend
Human race will not get this kind of man ever again…
What?
IF HE IS NOT BORN AGAIN IN THE HOLY SPIRIT HE WILL HAVE NO UNDERSTANDING OF THE WORD OF GOD JESUS HE SHOULD NOT BE TEACHING ABOUT IT FOR HE KNOWS IT NOT HE IS NEW AGE
What a delight to hear the intellectual, rational approach to an understanding of the Bible presented by Dr Peterson! Though I came to an understanding of the Bible through an experimental faith along with multiple readings over many years we are ending up with the same understanding on Biblical topics I have heard you discuss. But the greatest joy it gives me is seeing Dr Peterson's approach challenging, reaching out to intellectuals who would not otherwise be able to relate to contemporary Christian communicators, and successfully connecting with them. Thank you so much, Dr Peterson! Your voice is refreshing, stimulating, challenging and convicting for those inside and outside the church. And thank you for being courageous enough to speak the truth in the face of what must be painful opposition at times and holding your ground on so many controversial issues that challenge the thoughts and beliefs of so many for the purpose of relieving confusion, lifting burdens and bringing hope to those trying to survive and find meaning in the chaos of this modern day life. Truly, your own personal pain has birthed in you a passion for the pursuit of truth and a compassion that embraces humanity. I'm sure your way of loving and caring for people is bringing joy to the heart of God. May you be now and eternally comforted by His great love!
Always intellectual people come to Jesus and the ones who are confuse go to other places
So true Marika...
I heard Jordan a couple years ago and began praying for his salvation. He has helped so many wayward folks find their way to sanity it just seemed right he should be able to experience the supernatural power of the living God and his word.

I remember first hearing Jordan speak and thinking wow, I can listen to this man for hours. I never heard him openly state that he was a believer, but I suspected that he was because he seemed to reason from a biblical world view. Then I heard him answer the question, “Do you believe in God?” At that point I realized that he was probably not a believer. But having come to that realization, I also had the thought that he may not be saved now, but he most likely will be at some point. I can’t get enough of these videos listening to him discover his Lord and savior.
Praise God!
I failed God. But i still love him hope he still loves me. God bless this man and God bless you all.
@@ArturHedlund we have all failed God over and over my brother and He still loves you more than anything or anyone ever could.

If God saved me, He will save you too.
Almost 50 years of my life I've spent running from Him. Yet I know that He is waiting for me to turn around and let Him take me by the hand.
I am done running. I've finally realized that I was wrong, lost, confused, and ignorant. But I knew that all I needed to do was to let go of myself, the arrogant and proud full, vain, rebellious, and foolish man, yes let go of myself, and grab a hold of His hand and never let go again.
I give them eternal life,
And they shall never perish;
No one will snatch them
Out of my hand.
John 10:28
Take His hand and never let go.
God bless and keep you my brother.
I will give thanks and praise to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Wonderful are Your works, And my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from You, When I was being formed in secret, And intricately and skillfully formed [as if embroidered with many colors] in the depths of the earth. Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were appointed for me, When as yet there was not one of them [even taking shape]. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I could count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with You. O that You would kill the wicked, O God; Go away from me, therefore, men of bloodshed.
Psalms 139:14-19
The beauty of the Word never fails to gladden the heart.
I was saved as a child. I know that in my heart. I went astray in my walk because of people who pretended to be my friends. God still showed me that my prayers weren't unanswered. That somehow he still loved me. Despite my bitterness. Despite my anger. Despite my mockery. He somehow understands that it isn't directed at him. I was never any of these things towards him but he seems to still be teaching me, reassuring me, comforting me as a parent would their own child. The moral is never give up on God or the ancient wisdom written in the Bible because neither of those will ever quit on you the same as you might think.
God bless Dr. Peterson. You are doing the Lord's work.
I have spent most of my adult life trying to learn and explain what life is, what it is about, what is important, meaningful, and so on. I think I have made progress on it, but I have so much to learn yet. (The more I learn, the more I realize how much more I need to learn, etc.) And then JP comes along, and it seems that whatever he says is ten thousand times better than most of what I have come up with. I only say "most" because I haven't heard or read everything from him yet. He is a singular gift to humanity.
Its good to question yourself about what you are.. That means you have curiosity and opened mind.. Unfortunately most of humans are living materialistic life to chase love inside their hearts but they will not find it.. You can see perfection in every part just be aware and enjoy the litle things.. Make your family proud of you and enjoy your precious life..
I have few basic rules i use everyday treat people like i would like to be treated, be always positive no matter how hard is my situation, and take care of under species.
I have 2 litle kids and now after a while they don't kill a small animal.. Just an example my boy use to kill ants and i said to him why you kill them? They just want to live like us, we as superior species we need protect them not destroy them..
Unfortunately if you take this road most of time you will walk alone.. But with your heart filled of true love and joy.
Peace
Maybe it comforts you that the things that you allready learned have led you to this man. So what you have learned by your own thinking is not useless. It was more likely necessary to get and understand the next level. And it is a very humble thought to acknowledge that his gift is a blessing for humanity. That`s very nice of you to say.
I’m so glad a man like Jordan, who’s clearly got a brilliant mind and a zest for learning, shares his analysis on finding wisdom in the Bible. I feel many will come to know Christ because they hear Jordan speaking about Him and the Bible. Praise God!
I love this. I studied the bible for 10 years but didn't find that my friends saw it as the precondition for understanding life. When my beloved child died my search intensified but in the face of death I found how little I understand.
God Bless You🙏💞
God provides. I’m so sorry you had to suffer so. Somehow He can bring victory. I’m not worthy to speak to you.
You’re not alone Jordan, I join you in the very long line of men and women throughout the ages who have had their lives changed by this life-giving book! God bless you for your courage!
It may seem implausible here and there but I can tell you it’s true and transformative. Giving up bad habits and thoughts is a beginning of wisdom. Inside job.
Agreed. Difficult but worth it, right? Aloha.

@Lisa Swetz well,he mentioned the Holy Bible,doesn't it enough?
@Lisa Swetz
So,what is he? Atheist? I don't even know if this is his first video for you.
Some people don't know how a single book can help you so much until they've hit rock bottom in life (which is unfortuntaly rather easy in the times we live in).
You might like to read dostoyevskys novel “crime and punishment” or “brothers karamazov”
It's absolutely enthralling to see how Jordan "is being transformed" and truly enlightened by reading and studying the Bible, causing "the renewing" of his mind, as Romans 12:1&2 tells us to do! Jesus IS the Logos of God, the Word made flesh - His time on earth and His Eternal Plan, was recorded in the Bible! As the Book of John, Chapter 1 says, Jesus IS the Logos of God. Fascinating! ❤️
@Lisa Swetz
Why would he need to??
“In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God and
the Word was God.”
The Word is alive, and lives in us. If we allow it. Thank you for that beautiful reminder. I remember ⌚️ in the beginning when you began the Bible series and my spirit told me to watch as the Word incompasses you, and wraps you in love and peace like nothing in this world ever has. You are our Jubilee, and I'm here freezing in Florida, watching my favorite Canadian Pastor, Shepherd, Lover of the word G-dly Man, who has stood up in the midst of chaos and claimed, G-d might really exist! But we're not him.
Your words regarding wisdom in the bible make me cry. Thank you for your encouragement.
I HAVE NEVER EVER HEARD SOMEONE TALK, SPEAK LIKE THIS TRUE GENIUS…. HIS KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM IS SO PROFOUND 🧐 HIS VOCABULARY, CATALOGUE OF WORK… WHAT A TRUE GIANT, I AM HUMBLED….🙏🏾👍🏾🇦🇺

The cringe-worthy pontifications and ludicrous positions posited by Jordan B. Peterson: Women wearing makeup invite sexual harassment. Rules concerning men arguing with men verses men arguing with “crazy women” are unfair because men can't hit women. An essay in which he stated hating Muslim people wasn't a bad thing because all Muslims are violent extremists. His lie that .every country with a Muslim government gives the death penalty for blasphemy. His completely ridiculous statement that ancient people knew all about DNA and that the medical symbol of the intertwined snakes is proof of that. Corporal punishment should be used to discipline
children, even two year olds (Rule 5,) His twitter comment in which he presented himself as an authority on objective standards of beauty for women (and then quit twitter because someone had the gall to call him on
it.) His dishonesty and waffling about when he was asked if he believed in Christ/was a Christian. His hypocrisy concerning his own 12 Rules. When life gets hard, take Benzos. His very uneducated stance on climate change. (How arrogant. That's not his area of expertise.) His statement that there are no reliable chemical means to stop smoking he says, and then immediately brings up the use of magic mushrooms. His deliberate misrepresentation of Bill C-16. He out and out lied about the content/purpose of that bill just to get another 15 minutes of fame. What a despicable man. His arrogance at retranslating the meaning of various Bible stories as though he has a direct line to God--or as though he is God. Next thing he'll do is write a third testament. Wonder what he'll call it. Not a complete list by any means. Sorry I just can't respect the arrogance of someone who presents himself as an expert in disciplines for which he has no scholarship-climatology, theology, nutrition, pharmacology...
You are an amazing man Dr. Peterson. Thank you so much for all that you do.

❤ This is incredible. I've consumed every hour of audio/video JBP produced. This compilation is incredibly difficult to put together in a seamless way. Thank you! 🇨🇦
Indeed
I start reading bible from page 1 at the age of 12 and since then I can’t live without this book. there isnt a time that I read the bible without being touch deep within me.
Thanks for breaking down in your unique way, the essence of the Bible and the relevance in dealing with wisdom in abundance. Love from South Africa.
We miss these conversations in Afrikaans, not to mention the indigenous languages.
What an amazing man.
Jordan whenever I listen to you speak I empathize with you. I have been addicted to thinking my whole life, the insanity of trying to understand everything. A few years ago I discovered Eckhart Tolle' and he finally helped me to find some balance. Thinking is not the solution. I know the Bible well having been dragged kicking and screaming into fundamentalist Christianity at the age of nine. And here is the thing. An example. Explain gold to me and I'll explain the Bible to you. Literally. Tell me what gold really is and how it came to be. This is my gold/Bible now: an example. I was at the pub for a couple of beers this afternoon and chatting to two blokes I have come to know in recent times. They were both whinging about the over flowing bins and the lazy staff at the pub. I went in to get another beer, stopped next to the bins, sorted them, put the bags away, got the barman to give me two more bags and put them in the bins. I didn't need to think about any of it, I knew how to do it, I was able to do it, so I did it regardless of what anyone else thought about me doing it. And that is the message of the Bible. Just do it, do the right thing without complaining about it or thinking about it. That is what Jesus demonstrated. It's not complicated. I don't have to understand it. Understanding is way over rated. Relax my friend, all is well.
“Remember those thirty one Canaanite towns listed in the Book of Joshua (plus four other towns on the other side of the Jordan River)? Sixteen towns were destroyed according to the stories in the books of Numbers, Joshua, and Judges. Of these sixteen, two or three maybe four cities show signs of violent destruction at or around the time when Joshua and his army would have been plowing through Canaan(thirteenth century BCE about two hundred years before the time of the King David)
The towns on the other side of the Jordan River in Moab, don’t look like they were even occupied at the time.
We also read in the Bible that twelve towns were taken over without a fight. But of those twelve, only seven were even occupied at the time, according to archaeological findings. And of those same twelve towns that the Bible says were not destroyed, actually do show signs of destruction.
In other words, archaeology and the Biblical story don’t line up well at all”
Peter Enns The Bible Tells Me So ch Digging for Answers, p.59.
Where?
The bible actually doesn't say anything about anything. Because for every passage, there is a contradictory one.
Any meaning or wisdom derived from the bible is self indulgent. Because it comes from you and is whatever you want it to be.
@@noelhausler2911 not much in the bible lines up with history.. or even basic reality for that matter.
@@theoriginalKland depends on whether you see the trees or the forest.
@@iamcleverdic Yes, People see a tree in the bible and assume the forest.
I believe, if given the opportunity or if the question was at hand, I'd give an arm for this man's help with my life.
It's easy to see the Holy Spirit working here. God is pulling you, keep going.
Peterson and I came to God in the same way at the same time. It's been quite the journey and very helpful to have someone who was having the same questions as I had, to put his great thoughts out there for everyone to see
So you're a lost vwicked whiny blaspheming unbeliever like Jordan?
@@a.d.marshall2748🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Bible is a very deep document. You will never get to the bottom of it. There are deep statements that may take you decades to understand . There are people who have spent their entire lives studying this book and still don’t understand the book.
Jordan Peterson brings out the worst in people both his enemy's and admirers act like know it all douchebags whenever Jordans involved he's a trouble maker. Kiss me between the two back pockets 😘💍
@@poemanderpoemander3007 it sounds like you process much of the worst in people.
