#BetterTogether
Jordan Peterson dropped a hard truth about what “I believe in God” actually requires.
Belief isn’t a sentence you say out loud. It’s a total commitment to the pattern of Christ, voluntary, full confrontation with betrayal, the mob, the tyrant, unjust suffering, and even the harrowing of hell. Not comfort. Not a safe life. The decision to stop shrinking from anything.
Christ said his burden is light because truth brings abundance. But the cross part means you leave the pumpkin shell behind. You’re built for maximum sacrifice and adventure, not fence-sitting.
Calling yourself a believing Christian is a massive claim. Most of us barely grasp the depth of it.
Man should fear the sterile life in which his hands are never calloused nor dirty, in which his body is not often drenched in sweat nor pushed beyond exhaustion, testing limits rather than merely theorizing
What is courage but fear put to good use? What is fortitude without choosing the difficult yet earnest path despite trembling before it? What is love which does not first break the tyranny of self before remaking you?
And what then? Virtues are the means, not just the ends. Build something beautiful. Love your family. Raise your own. Give to your neighbors. Plant trees whose shade you'll never enjoy. Lighten the burden of others and be strong with yours. Leave proof that you existed. Fear only that which prevents you from resembling the Image in which you were formed
