Lecture: Biblical Series XIII: Jacob's Ladder

Watch Exodus available exclusively on DailyWire+: bit.ly/3UgQLe6
The Psychological Significance of the Biblical Stories starts up after a two month hiatus with the first half of the story of Jacob, the founder of Israel ("those who wrestle with God"), the man who robs his brother of his birthright, is deceived into marrying the wrong woman, and dreams of a stairway to heaven, in the ancient Shamanic tradition.

How many people have learned more about Christianity from Jordan Peterson than any pastor or priest?

[@fabiotieri3155]

I mean obviously Peterson did a lot of research on these topics, and that can be seen as the work of a lot of pastors which he implemented with his others cognitions.

[@basilgaizka4672]

These people you speak of usually don't go to church or read the bible, so.

[@fabiotieri3155]

@@basilgaizka4672 I don' think so. I'm confident that most of the viewers (as well as attendants) of these lectures had already some sort of religious education and knew these topics and arguments beforehand. There is of course the lone viewer who didn't care at all about religion and stumbled upon these and gave it a try, but it's an exception!

It's been a stressful and deep ride, but my life has cleared up from the constant catastrophes I endured in architecture school. Everything Jordan said in this video is now known-territory for me.

I am sad Dr. Peterson had to go through the drama of being violently and unfairly protested (and almost fired from U of T!) but at the same time, I am glad his “confronting the dragon” (and all the fire coming his way) allowed for his knowledge and lecturing skills to transcend his classroom and curriculum responsibilities, to build something of incredible value that so many of us benefit from. If it wasn’t for all that terrible experience, I don’t see how Peterson’s repository of knowledge would have reached me, and so many others. I am so grateful for that

[@n8ux1963]

Many years later, Paul writes in Romans, "I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it." "So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death?" Which is Paul's way of saying, The Struggle is Real.

[@tuppybrill4915]

Yes the struggle is real but on that passage our minister has been exploring that Romans 7 cannot be true of the Christian at the same time as Romans 6 and 8. It is suggested that Paul is reflecting on the helpless condition of the person (Jew) under the Law in 7 and that we are not to identify with it but to take on board that the Spirit gives us the power to reject sin and embrace the good. To 'live ' in 7 is to give ourselves an excuse but to ' live ' in 6 and 8 means to "say no to ungodliness".

[@TiborMeszarosTM]

The other side of the coin: God is real too. I say this bc we live in a dichotomic creation. And I believe that when we struggle we are in a tough place of making choices that will ultimately shape our faith. One way or the other. Make us weak or strong. PS 139:7-10 helped me find solace that no matter where the struggle takes me, Abba Father has my back.

Interesting how Dr Peterson explains trying to figure out the meaning of life as *"no one can do that alone, it's insanity"*. This is exactly what it is unless we have people we can trust that explain things as deep as our psychological interactions with reality. Those (myself included) who spend many hours alone pondering, wandering, and wondering about what it all means need to indulge in contact with others. Sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the people we contact. Watching this series has answered more questions about life for me in 30 hours than the previous 61 years. I would only hope to live to be 122 or more so I can enjoy it without all the baggage of pondering, wandering, and wondering...or, at least, spend those hours helping others find the same answers.

My favourite thing to do is to lay down in a quiet room and listen to these lectures as I let myself drift in and out of sleep. It opens up my mind and somehow lets me absorb the knowledge so easily. I always wake up feeling like I've had a revelation and recharged. Thank you Dr. Peterson!

poor bastard was such a genius it drove him mad. i will be forever grateful for this mans insight and i hope he comes back on more level ground. God bless you Jordan Peterson.

[@MrHackTheGibson]

Saw some footage of him playing with a RC car. He's up and moving, seems to be recovering.

[@z3fs8]

He was not driven mad at all, where did you hear that? And it wasn't because of his brilliance that he took a step back, that is severely uninformed and malicious statement that you should retract immediately. Its because he was facing a multitude of problems some of which were supremely hard personal health issues, the fact that his wife had cancer. He was also constantly facing different dragons (i.e media, radical left etc) that would absolutely crush the common man and to top it off he was prescribed physiologically addictive anti-anxiety medicine that caused him to seek medical help. It his brilliance and family that saved him sir. You need to act more responsibly and perform adequate research before besmirching people.

[@dominicbertino10]

When JP says he doesn't buy the skeptical assertion that people on their deathbeds only have mystical experiences because it's their brains' last attempt at alleviating pain, it reminded me of something Dostoevsky wrote in Brothers Karamazov (I think). Something along the lines of: When very mentally ill people report seeing ghosts, people always assume their mental illness caused the experience. How do we know that ghosts don't only appear to severely mentally ill people? Dostoevsky was being a little sarcastic I think but he probably thought it was worth considering.

People's minds are closed off to other frequency bands and dimensions of reality. It's got nothing to do with being mentally ill or not. I've seen several spirits and I know other people who have. I also know a couple of good mediums who can connect with departed souls. These things exist regardless of whether believe it or not.

[@BCEden1]

@@misssarahashplant31 yes, I have had a glimpse of 3 Heavens and have seen Jesus and some demons. Mainly happens in deliverance prayer and God is highlighting the different 2nd Heaven altars souls/people are under. Jesus is way above it all on 3rd Heaven and when you connect with Him that is when souls can be freed from ancestral altars.

Not a fan of pity parties but listening to your lectures I’ve been able to connect dots I’ve never seen before. My mother, God bless her heart. Was battling depression and raising 3 kids alone, and as the middle child I found myself getting the least amount of attention, acting out, getting in trouble. I think that “favorite of the mother” part of the lecture really made a lot of sense to me, i didn’t have confidence growing up, I would chase women who’d hurt me cause I wasn’t taught what love was. It’s crazy to see this parallel play out in your own life.

Dr Peterson always discusses happiness is not a goal but the focus should be on accomplishment. I don't believe these two are mutually exclusive. While I agree happiness in and of itself is not the goal, but rather a by product of achievement. The happiest times of my life we useually a result of my achievements and accomplishments. My most unhappiest times was where I had little contol or influence over events in my life or among my family members. I also happy in my family's or close friend's achievements.

As for knowing one’s sheep….that’s just a weird thing about people who keep sheep…sheep are individuals and very memorable. I can tell if one of my sheep is just beginning to get ill…the way they walk, their eyes, every sheep is keenly unique. Conversely my sheep each know me and respond in their own way. Some come up for a touch and some just look and others will shift feet. Knowing your sheep and vis versa is not a strange thing.
