After suffering through two decades of cheesy televangelists and watered down evangelical worship music, it’s refreshing to watch an in-depth and serious discussion of the Bible.
The Bible has NEVER STOPPED unwrapping a scripture to show multiple levels of depth FROM THE SAME SCRIPTURE as I have read and grown into it.
thats why the bible has been called the living book...
@indogyrsimdead amen
yeah that is what it means to endlessly intelectualize religious writings.
That's just it everyone talks with the word in their own way, my cousin claims judas didn't just betray jesus as how he understood it. Having watched jesus preform miracles, judas went to boast and laud jesus's virtues and abilities to the romans kind of like a challenge. I'll take you to him and he's going to utterly trounce you, kind of mind set not knowing jesus wouldn't resist. We all read what we relate to.
The multiple theory is perfect established through the universal & geographical peregrination lessons&merit ...) , but people with (psycho, physical, environmental, responsible, habit, mental, interest )levels . Do not take one disciple as granted for one circle. Do read all disciples, compare and analyse each purpose, subject/topic/story case and apply to the real person/group in an analysis approach but they may (not) understand the consequence of each behaviour linked in the society.Even the religious Jew has own division of eruv Sabbath.
This is... amazing? It's as if I'm in the middle of a bunch of professors that are discussing a very difficult subject, and I'm taking notes - for free!
Thanks DailyWire.

Watch Jonathan's talk on bishops Barron's podcast from a few weeks back. Then two are miles ahead of the rest of the panel in terms of biblical understanding.

That's so wrong
You're right on the money. 1 Corinthians 1:18-21 is so relevant when I hear these unregenerated intellectuals discussing scripture. They are missing the mark by a million miles, when it comes to the truth of God.
@@GospelTestimony

I think the whole series is available in the Daily Wire platform, is it not?

The moment I confronted what I feared most, its power faded, leaving behind a profound and unexpected peace that had been waiting for me all along.
Waiting for that peace so that others around me feel it too !
The best interpretation method is to "let scripture interpret scripture". The biblical themes then emerge in their full depth and richness. For example, how can one understand Jesus' discussion on "living water" in the fourth chapter of John's gospel without knowing its temple imagery in the Old Testament and also its symbolism at the close of the book of Revelation? And how can one fully appreciate the indwelling of the Holy Spirit without a knowledge of temple theology? The themes of scripture carry through the entire bible with remarkable depth and clarity.
Your comment reminded me of Paul's conversion.
Well said
I've never seen scripture interpret scripture. I've only seen human beings interpret scripture.
🔥
That is kinda dangerous actually because it mostly leads to division of the truth, and without knowing the context or even the history of it, anyone can interpret the scriptures literally. The best answer would lead us back to the Church who has the supreme authority to interpret it. Because it is the Church that made the Bible and therefore should be the one who has the authority to bring us to the truth. Christ gave us His Church and through the Church birthed the sacred scriptures. Another thing is to see the scriptures on the lenses of the Church Fathers. They were one of the first and one of the founding members of the Church like the Apostles, so they have more right to say on what the stories of the bible are because we believe that all the knowledge and authority were handed over to them by the Apostles and disciples of Jesus. Ok
It's interesting to listen to these brilliant intellects floundering around in texts meant partly to confound the intellect, but more, to enlighten the spirit.

Yh hopefully this council can actually clarify the trinity rather than make it a huge amount of mental gymnastics so that we don't call the religion inherently polytheist.
@@omkhetz3798have you seen the LDS take on the Trinity?
The main problem with a group of people discussing the interpretation of scripture is the ignorance of the Holy Spirit’s internal, authority in understanding the truth. Without the Spirit spiritual truth cannot be known.
True that
So people learning about faith, and exploring, but not yet “Christian” can’t get the truth of the scripture? I find that a very curious position.
You just invented that.
@@nicolasbascunan4013 1 Corinthians 2:9-16
@@nicolasbascunan4013 God sent the Holy Spirit to draw sinners searching for truth. The Holy Spirit draws them to understand the truth of the gospel and when they receive the gospel by faith they are indwelt by the Holy Spirit and their spiritual eyes are opened. God then enables us who have the Holy Spirit to understand the spiritual truths revealed in his word and to test the spirit of those around us to bear witness of this truth. People who profess to be in Christ, but are not, cannot understand the truths and depths of the scriptures. This is one reason there are divisions in “Christianity.”
The disciples asked Jesus, 'why do you speak in parables'? Jesus replied, 'the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you but not to them. Though seeing, they do not see, though hearing, they do not hear nor understand.'
Jesus also said, 'No-one knows the Son except the Father, and no-one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.'
No matter how much academic prowess you think is needed to understand scriprure, in order to 'know' God, it is only by revelation of the Spirit of God that mankind can ever know and commune with Him.

As in all communication, the normative meaning of the text should be bound by the author's intentions. The question we should be asking of the biblical text, just as we do when we read an email or get a love note, is, "What did this author intend to communicate through this text?" If we don't start there, we end up with the Bible as a Rorschach test.
That's still subjective. You need an authority.
@@nicolasbascunan4013how does one find or obtain this “authority” you speak of?
The Bible is the word of God... thats the authority. @nicolasbascunan4013
@@nicolasbascunan4013 I don't get how this goes above people heads. Without authority 10 people can have 10 different interpretations and all will claim they're right...Is this really what God intended?
The best interpretation is the interpretation that takes the contexts of the biblical authors seriously. Anything else is far removed from their worldview and understanding.
The Church came about before the Gospels were written. The Gospels point to the tradition passed down to us via the Church. The Church gives us the lens through which to read the Gospels. Thank goodness Bishop Barron was there, because these professors are in danger of shedding a great deal of darkness (rather than light) on this subject.
the only reliable traditions were spoken and written by the apostles, as the scripture says. churches get corrupted by a false sense of power.
true
The church is full of sin, in my experience only communists insist on a particular lens
Interested in your research material used for this comment?
@@dirtknocker2587 The year was stablish the Bible and what book enter in the cannon and what books did not enter was all at the 372 AC. 72 books where selected and who chose them? Why no the letters of Clement but yes to the book of Hebrews??? Why Luke that said he wrote of his own inspiration his letters and no Clement? Clement said he was inspired by the Holy Spirit and u read him and sound very biblical but is no in the Bible and why? Because Jesus stablish a church no a Bible and the church decided what book enter into the cannon. Jesús mentioned who hear you, hear me, who don't hear you don't hear me and gave the Key of heaven to Peter, than in books of the Acts of the apostles show the visible church and this is before the Bible! One more....Jesus mentioned that there is no books enough to write all he teaches them! Saint Paul thanks the disciples for keeping the traditions and they where though by Word and Writed! So...yes....THE CHURCH HAS THE AUTHORITY SAME AS THE BIBLE AND MAGISTERIUM AND IS GAVE BY JESUS. blessings
I like to visualize it was a plane of meaning "vectors", all pointing at a higher truth. And in areas where it self-conflicts, its pointing at more than one higher truth, and if we could rise to the level of those higher truths we'd find those truths are pointing to another, even higher truth. Ultimately unifying more and more each step you ascend.
I loved that this guy brought Ricoeur into the discussion. It was just about time someone pointed to a constructive hermeneutic tradition when dealing with sacred texts
There are layers of depth in understanding the gospel . Simple believing like a child is the most important and easy to understand . My cousin has an IQ of 80. He has mental retardation . He can easily explain his faith in Jesus.
That's biblical. You must become like a child to enter the kingdom.

It's true but so many will read this comment and interpret it the wrong way
Matthew 11:25

@@dizzyx05 Yes. Like me for example.....I read it THAT way too. 🤣
The new book has real reignited my Love of God and the way mr. Peterson approach realing brings a connection to the scripture to our modern day Faith and worship. God bless you Jordan. I hope you continue your mission of teaching. We love you
People often misinterpret scripture due to their pride. There's a big difference between human knowledge and divine wisdom. Many try to place themselves above God, which leads to misunderstandings of scripture, often requiring a scholar or false teachers to explain it. This is similar to the Pharisees and Sadducees who created barriers for others seeking God.
True understanding of scripture comes through the Holy Spirit. If you genuinely seek God, insights and interpretations will be revealed to you, almost like a blind person gaining sight. Unfortunately, many interpret scripture based on their own desires rather than God's intentions. With patience, the right biblical interpretations will come to light in due time. No amount of speculation or artificial intelligence can grasp God's mind, as many only perceive the visible and miss the deeper, unseen truths.
You didn't answer the question. Protestant?
Amen.
And this holds with all scriptures, all holy books, those who interpret have no place to interpret to begin with, due to the corruption of the synagogue, the church and the mosque, we now have 1 religion divided in 3 and each one thinks that the other is different than its own, and each thinks that its holds the truth while the others are false, because of the misinterpretation of the scripture by people who like you said are invaded by pride and those who are prideful are without a doubt ignorant and those who are ignorant are without a doubt dominated by darkness, so in conclusion it is darkness who deliberately uses those close to the prophets of god in order to prevert the meaning and then centuries go by with that misinterpretation giving us as a result the actual world we live in, but everything has a purpose, so this too was meant for something greater than what we can understand.
@@nicolasbascunan4013in simple terms he is saying come genuinely with humble spirit acknowledge that you can never understand the scriptures unless first you accept them as profound truth and perfect two willing to live by what they teach you then will u receive revelation
And of course the group/ church we belong to just happens to have the right holy spirit led interpretation.
The difference with Christianity is that it's not merit based as with the others...
God thru his sins substitutionary sacrifice rescued those who would come to him by allowing his son to take the punishment..
With the mosque and the synagogue...on your death bed one is not really sure if they've said or done enough to merit heaven.
For Christians it's living by faith in tbe person who accomplished everything on the Christians behalf
The interpretation of the Church Fathers and The Saints
What if church fathers have differences and cannot convince each other or each others’ followers?
@fred8691 that's what the pope and councils are for
So the Catholic church
Begging to be manipulated kind of mentality
We had a protestant reformation saint just means anyone who is born again and the bible says call no man father
Through the belief in Jesus Christ, an ever lasting relationship is created through the Lord and the believer ❤.
Not one mention of The Holy Spirit, unbelievable!
What do you think guides the church, which they mentioned?
Everyone can claim is being guided by It. That's why Jesus built a Church, then that Church made the Bible canonical, guided by the Holy Spirit.
It's because likely none of these men have the Spirit of God residing within. "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." 1 Corinthians 2:14
@@nicolasbascunan4013 That's incorrect. The only people who can know that they are being guided by HIM (The Holy Spirit is not an it, but a person) are those who have the Spirit indwelling, and any judgment made is in keeping with the clear Word of God. The problem with these men on the panel is that they are intellectuals, who are trying to interpret the Word of God intellectually, and not taking it at face value for the statements it makes. There is nothing "mysterious" about the Gospels, when taken at face value.
"Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." 1 Corinthians 2:13-14
8:41 Lectio Divina is mentioned.
Wes Huff needed to be on this panel.
He's a historian of scripture, not a philosopher.
Absolutely!
You don't need to be a philosopher to understand and teach the bible 🙏🏾
Great conversation! May God be with, bless and call each into a deeper or a new and everlasting and ever transforming relationship.
The lineup for Jordan Peterson's Gospels discussion appears to lack representatives from explicitly evangelical or Reformed theological traditions. The participants include Catholic thinkers like Bishop Robert Barron, philosophers, and cultural commentators, but there is no indication of a panelist who explicitly identifies with evangelical or Reformed positions
This absence appears a gap in theological diversity, as these traditions often bring distinct emphases, such as sola scriptura (scripture alone) and a focus on grace in salvation. Their inclusion could provide a broader perspective on the Gospels in this forum
Nobody takes protestants seriously and nobody should
Came here to say this
They have 1 Catholic Bishop and a Eastern Orthodox guy. The rest are all something else. Evangelical are barely Christian so no wonder they won't be included. They could have got maybe a Lutheran or Anglican, sure, if they were stretched for Christisns, but since they have the 2 oldest Churches (which make up the majority of Christians worldwide), which actually have Apostolic succession represented, I think they're good..
Probably because evangelical or reformed Christians have nothing of value to add theologically to these discussions.
@@LB_die_Kaapie I believe the two englishmen are anglican.
Thanks!
The magisterium, the consensus of the Catholic Church Theologians and saints have the correct interpretation.

@@christianperspective9527super ignorant response.
Listening to these guys speak brings me to 1 Corinthians 2 and 1 Timothy 6:20-21.
Why do Christians hate watching people talk about the Bible? Seriously, all these comments like "These stupid intellectuals can never know the bible like i do!". For real, being braggadocious about your faith is sinful.
At the practical level, I would go with those individuals who have been sanctified by heeding the Gospel message. Whilst doctrine is obviously of crucial importance, it all hangs on knowing who it is (the Son of God) that we are to surrender to, and striving to match our daily actions to that calling.
When you see the Admiration of Bloviation spoken of by .... no wait, that's not it, the Adoration of Pontification, no no, Idolization of Oration, nah well, no wonder Paul warned the Colossians, "See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deception, which are based on human tradition and the spiritual forces of the world rather than on Christ." Col 2:8
facts.
celebrating "the virgin". mariology.
Very true. And the next verse is one of the most powerful verses in the Bible concerning the oneness of God.
But the bloviators and sophists have clouded the world with a pagan, philosophical trinity instead.
Im so sad when i read how confident some of these comments are.
Once the series has been shown in its entirety on DailyWire, I hope it will uploaded to UA-cam to reach even more people. I love what they've done with the set here, looks just right.
For me, if there is a problem arising, it is not that they interpret the Bible in an intellectual manner itself. It is that they use their own principles, experience and philosophy. The Bible is like the pleasant melody of orchestra, no contradiction, no out of tone and all telling a great story. Meaning, it can answer its own question. So the loss in meaning is not misinterpreted in context only, sometimes it comes from not asking the right question and not finding the right answer inside the Bible itself.
This video really made me think. The discussion about the 'correct' interpretation of the Gospels is so thought-provoking and profound.
Absolutely! It’s amazing how exploring different perspectives can deepen our understanding of such timeless teachings.
The correct interpretation is the one of the Catholic Church, because Jesus founded that church

We can all agree on that, that's for sure
The clearest pattern in the texts for interpretation of the written word and leading of the covenant people is for God to send s prophet. He will never stop speaking to us unless we reject His messengers. Take them seriously, examine their fruits (not how the tabloids constantly stone them) and hear His message today.
I'm sorry, Dr Peterson, but respectfully, I must say that I find this round table style of discussions hard to follow. I much prefer when you speak from your own thought process; to me it's more organic and there aren't a bunch of conflicting viewpoints that you're reacting to coming at you all at once. Still, the fact that you are thinking on this and analyzing this is essential in this day and age. You have helped me with your talks on responsibility, the Bible, and more, and I thank you.
One final thing; I know this is a short clip, but as other people have commented, not talking about or acknowledging the inspiration of the Holy Spirit (Who is the One to lead people into understanding) is a huge missing element from the discussion. A church may be organized into a hierarchical structure to ease with administration and other things, but this is the Word of God that is being analyzed here. 2 Peter 1:20-21 says: 20 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things. 21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit. The Word of God MUST always be at the top of that hierarchy, not the organizational structure of the church.
Thank you again for your personal dedication in all of this. May God continue to bless you and give you strength through your personal trials.
It is my hope that all of this is going to be used by Jordan to make standalone videos like his psychological significance of genesis series
He can't give in his final pride imo

Here is the correct interpretation of the Gospels:
That Almighty God became flesh, humbling Himself to be born of a virgin. He dwelt among us, lived a perfect life, and was crucified for our sins. On the third day He resurrected from the dead, that all who believe on Him should receive the gift of eternal life.
Simple.
That last paragraph is not so simple. Viva Cristo Rey 👑.
@fsartori1554 it really is. The Gospel is not complicated or difficult to understand. "For it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes."
We tend to overcomplicate things. Jordan Peterson certainly does. He is like an expert on trees, and he can identify and name all the different trees, yet he is blind to the forest right in front of him.
The Catholic understanding of this paragraph is not the same of the Protestantism.
So It's not that simple .
@fsartori1554 oh I didn't realize that catholics have a different understanding of the Gospel. Is it something like we are saved by works?
it pleased God, that thru the foolishness of the message preached, to save those who believe. 1 cor 1
I am so pleased to see this group meditating on and discussing the Word of God.
However, all of you must approach the reasoning of the Word from a Blood Covenant stand point. Much of the scripture can lead you down numerous rabbit holes, but if you apply Blood Covenant dynamics, starting with the 15th Chapter of Genesis thru the Cross and the New Covenant you will understand the meaning of the Word much easier and clearer.
2nd of all, you must, by Faith, allow the Holy Spirit to reveal the mysteries of the Word....supernaturally! From mysteries to wisdom only comes from the Holy Spirit which abides in the believer.
You must pray and ask and expect knowledge from the Comforter. To exclude Him is to fall back into religion and traditions of theologies to finally, you can do nothing just as Christ could do very little in His own hometown.
Mark 11:19-25. 9:59
At the end of the day the this is why the church is needed
The non-propositional meaning is exactly what I felt when I went to church
I clicked so fast. This is the problem that actually unravels everything we believe in the west. It starts with the people schism in 1054. That led to the protestant reformation where individuals believe they could be their own pope. Which led to the enlightenment where people based the center of Epistemology in the reason,logic, and perception of the individual. Yes, individuals can obtain knowledge. But the aspect of hierarchy and tradition is absolutely crucial. Without hierarchy and tradition, you end up floating in a sea of delusion, where one person sees a square and the other a triangle
Papal*
1054 was the split between East as west and the didn’t differ of scripture they differed on tradition which is okay. Protestantism didn’t exist at the time I came way way later. It had nothing to do with the great schism. The fact that they thought the Holy Spirit had made a mistake for over 1000 years is crazy 😂😂
Protestantism led, on the long way, to wokeism: "my interpretation, my truth".
If people earnestly seek Truth and there is Truth to be found, wouldn’t they end up meeting in the same place?
Regardless of who told them what, if an individual genuinely seeks God then they will be brought to a series of revelations and exposure of their own self deception. It seems to me that the individual’s relationship to God is primary, I know many folks who go to church yet don’t read their own Bible but instead eat up what the pastor says.
Don’t misunderstand me, I’m not against church as a whole, I’m just of the mind that a heart that seeks with humility and commitment is more important than being a part of a hierarchy and tradition (some of which are oppressive and gate keeping).
Yes, there is an importance to hierarchy and tradition.
But what you miss about Protestantism is that it is the affirmation of the centrality of the Apostolic tradition knowable in the scriptures, with Jesus being the cornerstone whom Moses predicted.
The Protestant is a reformed catholic, who believes in a wider catholicity than the institution of a single hierarchy (the Roman one), because there is a deeper tradition and unity to be found in the Apostles.
This tradition in scripture does not dispense with the collective efforts of the church (both the Roman, EO, and Reformed communities), but it attempts to place them on the right foundation-the Apostolic deposit in scripture and a fallible but reforming church, who lives humbly under the instruction of the Spirit.
Something to consider in your analysis of the difficulties we face.
ACTS 5:29
"Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men."

Proverbs 12:5, “The thoughts of the righteous are just;
the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.”
Proverbs 12:15, “The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
but a wise man listens to advice.”
1 Kings 12 is the story of King Rehoboam, who did not listen to the counsel of the “Old Men” that gave advice to Rehoboam’s father (King Solomon), but instead took the council of the young men.
1 Kings 12:8, “But he abandoned the counsel that the old men gave him and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him and stood before him.”
Acts 17:10-13, “The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived they went into the Jewish synagogue. 11 Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so. 12 Many of them therefore believed, with not a few Greek women of high standing as well as men. 13 But when the Jews from Thessalonica learned that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Berea also, they came there too, agitating and stirring up the crowds.”
We need to sharpen one another and temper our pride and learn from others. But counsel alone from “others” is not a true safeguard either.
We must check everything against the Word of God and also the most Wonderful of all Counselors-the life and words of Jesus Himself.
We should be “poor in spirit”. Humble and easily teachable and learn from others. Together we are much stronger and with the Holy Spirit and our Lord Jesus we can receive the guidance and understanding we need.
Again thank you for your words. 😊
tefuk, brainwashed much?
you mean the same holy spirit that guided all the different denominations?
@@chickenwasabi240 - The same Holy Spirit that gave FOUR GOSPELS...
The same Holy Spirit that is described in Ezekiel 1:4-21, concerning the creatures with 4 faces and led by the Holy Spirit.
Just as the Holy Spirit led 12 tribes while in the wilderness and each tribes distinct name was written and worn on the Ephod of the High Priest.
You have this interesting idea that there should be only one "proper" denomination that has to be followed.
I would hope if you looked at the book of Genesis at each of the ancestors of faith, they each worshiped the One True God in a very unique way and manner.
The liturgy is the optimum- never thought about that ; so when you go to a mass that is the optimum.
The correct translation of Holy Scripture, is the one that does not interpret the Bible to appeal to any denomination, whether Catholic or Jewish, etc. The correct interpretation is the Holy Ghost. The church cannot teach, rather, only the unction and anointing from the baptism of the Holy Ghost, is what teaches.
ideally, the pastors and teachers are filled with the holy spirit. jordan still approaches scripture as a clinical psychologist. i have yet heard him proclaim the jesus christ is his personal lord and savior.
@windyday8598 so was Peter, and he got caught up in Judaism until he was confronted by apostle Paul. Whether or not a person's wisdom is from the Holy Ghost isn't dependent upon them having the Holy Ghost. Anybody can still corrupt the word that He has given them. I can do it and so can anybody. I believe that God is using Jordan Peterson, but he has a lot of psychology in him and has been the way that he has lived off of for a long while. Just like thr Baron too, but with him it is Catholicism..but Catholicism is not the anointing that the Holy Ghost..that's why he will use the Bible to justify and always point back to martyrs and saints. Whereas the proper way for the revelation that is the Bible, to be interpreted, is without a human understanding, but an understanding that has been given to you that is from the Holy Ghost. This is why, when interpreting the Bible, the correct interpretation is the one where no denomination is exalted, but rather, the Bible always points you back to possessing the thoughts of God, His revelation about Himself, that happened through history and the letters in the Bible.
@@windyday8598 No, he just sees this as a great collection of stories.

Casting pearls b4 swine leads to tennis elbow
Dr. Peterson, hermeneutics is the study of the principles of interpretation. Exegesis is the right application of those principles. Unfortunately, hermeneutics books end up being books on exegeting texts rather than ever discussing principles.
Hermeneutics (/hɜːrməˈnjuːtɪks/) is the theory and methodology of interpretation, especially the interpretation of biblical texts, wisdom literature, and philosophical texts. Its a theory, man's theory. Nothing to do with God. The bible was inspired by the Holly Spirit and only can be interpret by the Holly Spirit. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.
When do they get around to the Bible study part ...
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:”
2 Timothy 3:16 KJV
“knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.”
2 Peter 1:20-21 KJV
“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
2 Timothy 2:15 KJV
Scripture with scripture is correct interpretation. 5:30
“Scripture with scripture is correct interpretation”. Are you suggesting that we can’t derive truth from other sources e.g. the incredible miracle of fine tuning of the universe?
@ right. Those sources had to be sourced. Can’t resource the source. It just is, was, and will be. Plus God sure is capable of speaking for himself and to give clarity of understanding of meaning. Truth only comes from his Word. These sources only lead back to the source. The intellect of men is nothing compared to the intellect of the Word of God in the name of Jesus Christ. Pretty sure this is based on the Bible and not fine tuning. Why is it that you want to insert a topic?
“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”
Revelation 22:18-19 KJV
that the man of God may be complete, fully equipped....
@@ChuckBrowntheClown I’m pretty sure that the bible talks about the evidence for God being around us, creation etc. a lot of those things in creation aren’t written about in detail in the bible. Gravity for example. It feels to me like a “scripture is the only place truth can be derived” is limiting of God’s wonderment and fulfilment.
@ “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”
Hebrews 9:27-28 KJV
“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
Revelation 20:12-15 KJV
“And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.”
Revelation 21:1, 5 KJV
The Word of God finely tuned in the name of Jesus Christ.
The corn. There was a man in China, I heard on the radio and he had said something about The Spirit Of Truth, but he did not use the phrase, The Spirit Of Truth, and he said that God showed it to him in a Vision. In so many words, the Asian man said he’s not coming, he’s already here. and what he had said was 100% correct! I couldn’t believe my ears! That I was hearing someone speaking about The Spirit Of Truth, without me even telling them. And the narrator of the show put him down for saying it. God wanted me to hear that so I would know that he’s at work in The Spirit Of Truth, even if I didn’t realize it. Welcome to the dispensation of The Spirit Of Truth.
Jesus established and left us the Catholic Church guided by the Holy Spirit, to teach and guide us. The more Dr. Peterson studies and grows in faith, and discovers the fullness of Christianity, it is inevitable he will become Catholic.
Interesting, why Catholicism? You mentioned the establishment of the catholic church specifically by Jesus, is there a verse for this?
It was the Orthodox who founded the church. FYI. Im protestant but we should all be truthful about the facts
Orthodoxy would be even more accurate. Claiming jesus established the catholic church is arrogant given you know the orthodox church existed prior
@@xpsm249 There is no verse for that. The papal supremecy was invented way later. The orthodox church is seen in the book of acts, where the apostles come together for the first time to discuss doctrine. Thats where we see the decentral nature of the church which is preserved since then, in the orthodox church. Rome then invented the doctrine of papal supremecy, overriding the template that we've been given in the book of acts.
no one, knowing the scriptures, would do that.
Accept the one whose faith is weak, without quarreling over disputable matters. 2 One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. 3 The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them.

The word "gospel" means "Good News". I didn't hear anything in this conversation about the "GOOD NEWS" that Jesus came and DIED for our sins so that we may be reconciled with God, and that whosoever believes in him will be SAVED. You can dance around it all you want, talk about Jung, Freud, Neitsche, etc all you want, but it's all just blowing in the wind without True Belief.
I would love to hear JP expand on the Catholic Catechism
I clicked on this so quickly. I have been waiting for this 😊
The early church fathers would agree: there is nothing special about them or anyone else that qualifies them over you for interpreting scripture. But more importantly, interpreting is very low on the hierarchy of importance. Most important is that which has been from the beginning: do unto others as you'd have done unto you. If your efforts at interpreting distract you from living that out, interpreting has become an idol.
Neglect of that truth was the root of the fall, the root of Cain's decision, and so on.
Too much priority on interpretation was literally the seed of the fall in the garden.
Nice try, protestant. "Interpreting has become an idol"...You're just like postmodernists at this point.
Have you read the early Church fathers? 😂 There was a Christian empire with an emperor who brought together the whole church to confess one faith and scripture. How is it possible to have the whole church together in the first few centuries and have it in error? Jesus said the gates of hell will not prevail against the church, the church is the pillar of truth and the Holy Spirit will guide the church. Your assertion is nonsensical.
@@ezekielbates2921 the emperor was not an early church father.
@@ezekielbates2921 didn't say anything about error, and I don't think the emperor was a church father.
@@christiantgolden ok while Constantine may not technically be considered a church father he is an Orthodox saint and called the councils. As so he was in conformity with the whole church and Spirit lead. My point isn't that about Constantine though, but about the councils being the whole church in alignment as one being lead by the Spirit and not in error concerning the canons. You may not have said error itself, but saying they aren't any different is to say they could be in error as a whole and not individually. The point is that the church is the pillar of Truth and isn't as a whole ever in error so the councils must be correct and Spirit lead or the scriptures are false. The scriptures say the gates of hell will not prevail against the church and if the councils are in error then that's the church fathers in error as a whole and hell has prevailed. That's the logical extension of your statement. It is true that we are all in the same boat as the church fathers in that we must all rely on the Holy Spirit, but it is not the case that the church fathers are not special in that they were called to the councils to create the cannons that we are bound to as a whole. Individually we can all error and fathers aren't different in that sense, but as a council the fathers became special because they are then the Church, the pillar of truth.
I don’t dislike Dennis or what he has to say but I don’t think he comes to the table with the selflessness that is required to help this series do what it is intending. He often wants to satisfy his own needs and curiosities. It distracts from the mission that Jordan has set for himself. Jordan is always have to bring the whole conversation back on track and it’s almost always a direct result of Dennis having derailed it in the first place. I believe Jon is the individual on the far right of table and he also is very selfish in wanting to relate everything to his own experience. You have to adjust your frame in order to gain significant insight. It would make all the difference in the world.
So right!
1 Cor. 1:23-24.
Pleasssse!!!!!
yes, the scriptures reveal the power of God, not the wisdom of men. our trust is in the power of God--the exceeding greatness of his power toward us who believe, the same mighty power that God worked in christ when he rose him from the dead. that power... who is able to do exceedingly above and beyond all that we ask or think. Christ in you. the Spirit of promise. the promise of the Father. amen.

Not a Jungian interpretation.
Not because it’s Jung but because of its anachronistic interpretation.
Carl Jung stated that christ is personification/fulfillment of the self.
A 20th Century “doctor” is projecting ideals on a 1st century messiah figure.
At that point just claim Joan of arc is a feminist icon or Jesus as a socialist pioneer.
I think Peterson's view would be something about how you really can't view these things anachronistically if you keep in mind that they're archetype that are built into the framework of human psychology. Now it would be more correct to say Marx is looked at like Jesus than Jesus is looked at like Marx simply because of the passage of time, but either way they're both referring to some third immaterial thing, a symbol, an archetypal ideal that has taken many forms throughout history. Robin Hood, Jesus, Karl Marx, etc, this figure that encapsulates the desires of the downtrodden, for things to be set right where the tyrannical people in power who abuse it are divested of that power and it is given to the poor and the weak. They represent the idea that true power and strength comes from the value we place on one another rather than any material wealth.
Now I don't think Peterson would appreciate mentioning Jesus and Marx in the same breath, and I imagine he'd have a million ways to pick it apart on that basis, but the general idea is the same. We're talking about a kind of platonic idealism that exist in the human psyche, and echoes throughout human history and across cultures.

Funny to watch people struggle with the concept of love. Love is the only lens to read the Bible through as Jesus so perfectly did. Relationship at all costs. Without relationship, there is nothing. Love is and always will be the only law. Great comment on getting more than one view on a point, that it helps flush out truth much faster. We were made to discuss, interact, engage, and have differing views it is what love does. Love is the perfect design.
I think this problem of bounding interpretation would be true if the text was purely symbolic or true only in the sense of describing human psychology. The Christian tradition of the Bible being a living text is that God sets bounds and uses the text to communicate clearly. I think it would be difficult to try and bound the meaning in the Bible purely from an extra-Christian perspective. Even the Catholic argument of the community keeping things in check is not good because the "community" has also gone off track many times in history.
The Living Text argument I think I why the Bible has not gone off the rails. Which for me is a compelling argument as to why the Bible can only be fully understood if one believes there is a God directing the world. Truly. Not metaphorically or psychologically. Just plain ol' old school Christian belief-wise.
Hey Jorden Peterson i’ve really enjoyed watching all of your videos. It is so absolutely incredible. I’ve had some incredible experiences in my life but none bigger than my walk with Christ. I don’t just think Christ is real. I’ve met him. I’ve shook the hand of a flesh and blood real angel when you become a believer, it starts to Jesus, starts to transform you or in his words, wake us up to the truth my favorite thing to do with people that always want to argue, different theologies is to ask them to ask Jesus to reveal himself to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness we get stuck on trying to understand it, but without the transformation or awakening, we don’t have the tools to even comprehend what what the word actually is the word is living. I like to explain it this way the Bible is a giant ever transforming codebook, and becoming one with Jesus Christ is just the first step, but then he sends the cipher for the codebook which Jesus explains in the gospel of John with a very specific name “the Spirt of Truth” better known as the Holy Spirit without the gift of the Holy Spirit we can never understand or truly become completely awakened to the depth of what reality really is. God bless you, brother. Thank you for everything you do. You’re a very, very special man. I hope you see my comment. This is just the tip of the iceberg of testimonies. I have experienced since becoming a Christian at 27. I am now 43.
God knew the Gospels could be interpreted in many different ways, which is why He founded a Church on Peter, infused it with the Holy Spirit, giving it the authority to objectively interpret Scripture and teach in matters of faith and morals. Yes, I am speaking of the Catholic Church.
Man is flawed. Scripture is not.
Objective interpretation?? That's an oxymoron.
@@DIBBY40 Not at all. If a person interprets Scripture, it is subjective. If the Holy Spirit speaks through the Church Jesus founded and, in so doing, interprets Scripture, whatever it interprets is considered objectively true as it is divine.
the church's one foundation is jesus christ. he builds his church on that confession, as the apostles did confess.
@windyday8598 Yes Jesus founded His Church on Peter the Apostle, as written in Matthew 16.

Prager believes that the gospels are the word of God. Peterson thinks they're just really great stories he can write books and give lectures about.
No Peterson largely believes. But to fully believe all the time he takes it as if he did that then he would never sin again and he is not at that point but still perhaps believes more deeply than most Christians @@dashcammer4322

I do not really see the room for interpretation when you read the text as it is, simply word for word. The Bible is very clear and precise with a lot of things especially what our Lord Jesus said and has done for us and will continue to do for those who are willing to see and to listen. Also most of the time, we humans tend to only start to trust in god when our version of "I AM" fails us, then we seek the real "I AM" as a last resort unfortunately as since we truly are prideful and ego centered.

The problem is not just in the church but also learning in places like this, there is no dialogue, just monologue. Only some get to have dialogue, while everyone else has to put up with monologue. There is no interaction. NO interaction between the church hierarchy and everyone else, that is not in church hierarchy. Church was never to be created to be that way, it became that way because of people. Its like all the systems, in the earth, only some can have while everyone has to go without.
Let's cut to the chase. Words can only mean what the original writer intended them to mean in their grammatical and historical contexts. I always find it interesting that in Scriptural meaning dialogues I have with Catholics, the response is to ignore and not address them directly, and then they inform me that “God didn't come down and give us a Bible; He came down and gave us a church who gave us the Bible.” The focus of the discussion then moves to obfuscation and the sophistry of what the Bible ‘means’ based upon what some fallen human beings “Church Fathers” such as Polycarp, Irenaeus, Athenagoras, Augustine, Clement, Lactantius, Basil, Ambrose, Ignatius, Arminius, Justin Martyr, John Chrysostom, Beza, Zwingli, Luther, Crammer, Melanchton, etc., said about who, what, where, and when. Being a Berean who studies to “shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth approve themselves unto God” is definitely NOT on the list of their works-based memory verses (2 Timothy 2:15 KJV).
My hermeneutical foundation for exegesis is based upon the eternal biblical truth that Jesus is the Creator of ALL things, the very essence of God because He IS God (1 John 1:1-5) and is THE Word, the 'logos,' the divine utterance that the Holy Spirit transmitted to Scribes who wrote it down to become the Bible, which makes Him its only Author and foundation of the one universal Church, the Bride of Jesus, of which ALL members have been born from above by the Holy Spirit after repenting of their sins and receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior, entering into an eternal personal relationship with Him (John 3:3-5,29; Ephesians 5:25-27; Titus 1:5-9; 1 Timothy 3:1-7; 2 Timothy 2:2; 1 Peter 2:7, 5:1-4; Revelation 18:23,19:7;21:2,22:17). Under the authority of Jesus, we are united and strong, with no ‘Church Fathers’ or traditions having the authority to add or subtract from the written Word. It is the final and absolute authority in our life (Ephesians 4:12-15).
The Bible has ZERO divergent theologies because it makes no mention of the earliest Christian traditions or the RCC in the teachings of Jesus or His Apostles, nor is there any mention of salvation by grace plus anything such as baptism and works, praying the Rosary, the papacy, worship/adoration of Mary, her immaculate conception, perpetual virginity, absolute sinlessness, assumption, being a co-redemptrix and mediatrix, her role in the story of redemption, which is only being the surrogate Mother of Jesus, as well as petitioning saints in Heaven for their prayers, apostolic succession, the ordinances of the Church functioning as sacraments, infant baptism, confession of sin to a priest, purgatory, indulgences, or the equal authority of church tradition and Scripture, which the Bible warns about the danger of following those non-apostolic traditions (Mark 7:7-8,13; Colossians 2:8). These teachings are a different Gospel full of idolatry and doctrines of demons because it is a works-based religious caste system that is confusing at best and most often theologically contradictory, illogical, and intellectually incongruent (Galatians 1:8-12; 1 Timothy 4:1).
It is because the RCC believes that 'traditions' and the teachings of the Church Fathers are co-equal and even supersede God's Word. A Catholic cannot honestly and legitimately teach or believe that Jesus is God and the Author of the Bible, which means they are unbelievers who have tampered with its authority by adding or subtracting from it, which is disgraceful and underhanded, and there can be no fellowship between "light with darkness" (Ephesians 4:12-15; 2 Corinthians 14-16 ESV). That is a result of the god of this world having blinded their minds because of what they chose to believe and the choices they make to keep them from seeing the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God" (2 Corinthians 4:1-6 ESV).
The cold and hard truth is that anyone who teaches things that do not align with the Word of God is to be accursed (1 Corinthians 16:22; Matthew 18:15-17).
