Jordan Peterson’s insights into the Scriptures have encouraged and inspired millions, reawakening a highly secular population to the wonders of ancient theological wisdom.

As a trained theologian myself, what I’ve found so fascinating about Jordan Peterson’s YouTube series on the Bible is how much it resonates with insights from the ancient Orthodox Christian tradition, and it’s that interface that I want to bring to life for you in this episode.

Highlights:

● “What makes Peterson so significant today is he sees ancient wisdom, the ancient wisdom of the Scriptures, as being a profound and perpetual source of timeless meaning and significance for our humanity. In other words, the fact that no matter what we do, no matter how secular we claim to be, nevertheless, these biblical stories continue to endure and inspire and evoke astonishing works of human creativity and imagination.”

● “The important point here is that the new science that’s emerging is not rediscovering religion simply because of some new philosophically-derived tolerance of religion that science can patronizingly acknowledge; rather, it’s science itself discovering fundamentally religious truths inherent in the very nature of the physical world that it’s studying.”

● “Christ, in the New Testament, is identified as that divine principle, hence why we have four gospels, which reveal that the cosmos is being recalibrated around Christ, who is the Logos, the one in whom all things hold together. So when the early Church read Genesis, they read Genesis, in many respects, as the very first Incarnation of Christ the Logos, creation is the original material manifestation of the divine order of the Logos.”

● “When the cosmos falls through humanity’s sin, God rescues us how? By emptying himself and becoming human, and going down into Hades and rising again, seated at the right hand of the Father, to draw the whole of the cosmos back into eternal fellowship with himself. So, when the cosmos falls, it’s not like God has to do something entirely new or different. This vision of Trinitarian love and delight, means that when the cosmos falls, God simply does what he has always been doing, now and forever and unto the ages of ages.”
