“You’re Against Jesus?” — Jordan Peterson UNLOADS on Ben Shapiro for DENYING Jesus

In this powerful reflection, Jordan Peterson unpacks a core tension at the heart of Christianity: the call not only to believe in Christ’s sacrifice but to actively follow Him through suffering and moral responsibility. While Ben Shapiro rightly emphasizes that only Jesus can bear the weight of sin, Peterson highlights the transformative invitation to imitate Christ, take up our own cross, and pursue holiness. With references to Luke 9:23, Romans 8:29, and James 2:17, this deep dive bridges theology and psychology, showing how embracing suffering as Christ did leads not to despair, but to resilience, purpose, and spiritual growth.
