Thinking about others over yourself will make you happy and not miserable. It’s selflessness that makes one fulfilled. That’s why when I bless other people through encouragement and motivation or monetarily or through small gifts that would make them smile, the more I am blessed, even if I don’t have much to give! And that’s the kind of love that God wants us to share!
Hello, hope you are well. Hope you find this information useful Sin from the book, 'Ancient Hebrew lexicon of the Bible Hebrew letters, words and roots defined within their ancient cultural context' Jeff A Benner 2005. Quick overview (I know little so check with your pastor or someone versed in this) Ancient Hebrew worked in concrete expression via the 5 senses (p11). There are many ways it is seen Sin, as a letter is shaped like a thorn - to pierce/sharp or something that clings to like a thorn in your foot. P121 Sin: to paraphrase, 'to use a cord to measure how far off the mark one is'. P193 it refers to a turning on in the inside P388 Sin in a different context - a net. Many other ways than this and I would recommend that book if you are curious about stuff like this - though it is dense and needs careful application
@@alienfetus4 Hello, hope you are well. Since the ancient Hebrews have no 'concrete' sense for emotional feelings they used what was reflective of it. So anger is reflected in the nostrils. The phrase slow to anger can be translated as slow to nostril in the literal sense. Missing the target is how we feel when we fall short or fail so I believe that is why they used it. In this case to fall short of the standard God set. Just double check that though and I hope this helps
An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language, S by Friedrich Kluge, translated by John Francis Davis Sünde Sündflut → This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Sünde. Random word Sünde, feminine, ‘sin, offence,’ from the equivalent Middle High German sünde, Old High German suntu, suntea (base *sundî), feminine. Corresponding to Old Low German sundia, Dutch zonde; the equivalent Anglo-Saxon synn (English sin) is based on the primary form *sunjô for *sundjô; Old Icelandic synð also points to a Gothic *sunidi. Pre-Teutonic swntiâ-, swenetiâ-, belong to a pre-Teutonic root swen, sun, which, with a dental suffix, appear also in Greek ἄτη, ‘guilt, damage,’ Latin sons, ‘guilty,’ sonticus,@Chunkieta
Misery is the result of the construction of a self separate from the divine core that gives life and wisdom -- that was the nature of the fall as outlined in Genesis
Being miserable is a lack of having the conscious realization of one's divine nature. It's not related to religion in any way, for religion is a trap, keeps one small, insignificant, and looking for a savior when, in fact, you are the savior. Pain is necessary for growth. There is no coming to consciousness without pain. We are all the Christ.
And again, it‘s just about social control and social conditioning. I personally think, we are at a point in time, where it is absolutely necessary to abolish organized religion, in favor of freedom for personal growth. Even belief is a personal matter and needs no institution to be validated. Most people today are able to read, understand and interpret texts, there is absolutely no need for supervised believing. It‘s just weird to have to pay respect to an institution like the Roman Catholic Church, when the persons in charge aren’t even able to punish/ exclude pedophile priests from church service, while claiming the moral high ground and having the audacity to frown upon so called sinners.
2:16 But contributing to social structures and their actions on you includes significant burden. According to birth rates and the state of the family, they represent burdens deemed unprofitable all too often. The posited benefit 2:41 is nebulous and unlikely to be convincing. The miserable may be self-conscious, but this probably makes them more accurate accountants of the burdens and profits of contributing to higher social structures. Their calculus may provide clues as to how to create better social structures and perhaps its also worth asking whether we can have less misery around - it sounds like that may benefit social structures.
True. We absolutely don't want to be ignorant, blundering around without thought for our actions. But we also can't be so laser focused on ourselves that we don't see everyone else, that's not productive at all. There's a balance to be struck.
What are They talking about?Sin is a form of psychological separation from life and leads to mental illness. It quickly leads to conflict of interest and confrontation. Nothing wrong with self will but it has to be balanced with unselfishness. When you think about learning you are being unselfish because someone else is giving you the knowledge?Just because one comprehends knowledge doesn't mean you own other people's idea. I am seeing plagiarism all the time. Our present knowledge is dependent on the past discoveries but we have also conditioned others in past corrupt behavior as well. Peterson and most Catholics are persistently talking about hierarchies and democracy is anti hierarchical. It's equally based and Its closer to the truth then not. Does someone who has more money more important than a scholar? No. But people are conditioned to listen to rich people because They own the platform. The intelligent people are discriminated against precisely because business people aren't intellectuals by nature. So you live under a form of dictatorship. The Catholic church is a business and Its a corporate hierarchy that hasn't changed for hundreds of years.
Because they know less than the actual Christian to the left. The two on the right are ideological zealots who repeat talking points and cliches, whereas Peterson actively engages scripture and life, and its accompanying struggle. The first guy wanted to say something esoteric and fuzzy in order to sound deep, whereas Peterson eschewd sounding deep so that he could talk about substance. I’m an atheist with respect to dogma (I don’t believe in a deity or the religious narrative of Jesus), but I’m a huge fan of Peterson, who is probably the greatest well-known example of lived (not proclaimed and sloganized, but lived) Christianity. He is the Jesus to these men’s Pharisitical establishment. He’s the flesh and blood real deal…not a cardboard cutout. People listen to him because he speaks truth, not establishment virtue narratives. It’s the same thing that set Jesus apart from his narrative contemporaries.
@@rocky4976 It’s because I have done the digging deeper that I have this inclination. God exists, but the robe-clad type are sooner a misrepresentation than truth.
Truth? I believe so Jorden. Although, the 'church' (Christianity) has misrepresented the truth for the longest time. This has left the world without true spiritual well-being. All this is coming to the awareness of the world now. Even the Pope has had to speak of it, although not in a way that reveals the guilt of 'the church'. As long as we are not bound to any specific religion, then we live as we should and our spiritual well-being can come to the fore. Perhaps we must forgo religion itself and seek spirituality according to the individuals choice. There is no religion that is higher than the truth. Free to live it, to speak it and share it. I wonder if our governments will choose it, or be compelled (bound/religion) to live/act/speak accordingly?
The truth isn't enough. Your life is too short to figure out the truth, this is why we start with what religion has to offer. It's what our ancestors thought is the truth and was tested by a thousand generations.
Stop impersonating Dr. Peterson with this page that uses the exact same profile picture Dr. Peterson uses. I’ve reported you to RU-vid, writing therein: This user should be banned from copying and using the same “profile image” that the real Jordan Peterson account uses; it’s a form of deception, impersonating someone famous. I myself took many weeks or months to recognize that I was watching 2 separate channels. User adds links to real JP “socials”
I think the necessity for God comes from the unfathomable responsibility that is being put on the hands of the Human-kind. Responsibility for own selves. I feel the upcoming centuries for humanity will be at the manner of a Rite Passage, from the infantile need of Celestial Parents, now we must be the parents. And as a rite passage, our pain will be intolerable to the point of annihilation, with the hope of resucitating back like the Christ, or the Phoenix. The none-sense on all these debates reveals a deeper motivation for answers, for planning, for understanding and love.
@@idratherstayanonimous7020 I don't think there is a necessity for God. God was discovered. It's something like existence or life itself. Everything else like Jesus, values, commandments were discovered as well and are subordinate to God. They are the way to have a meaningful life. The deity in the sky should be nonsense even to the most religious people.
I don’t believe it was the lack of an all meat diet… I do believe Jordan speaks out from fear, not necessarily bravery. …but, he seems afraid of the right things. (Feel free and judge me.) 🤷♂️
I don't think fear takes you so long... My opinion. Would Jordan Peterson do everything he does and and say everything he says out of fear? Would this be the force that moves him? I think it's something more complex than that.
Interesting topic. Knowledgeable people as far as i'm concerned. But my god, Peterson rambles on like no other. It's very tiresome to listen to. Simplicity really is tkey for a good speaker.
These are complex concepts, its hard to summarize thousands of years of parables, stories, and tradition into a few sentences, if u can’t keep up try atheism
